CONCEPT

If there was a formula for the show, it would almost always start off with Jeff Goldsmith in the intro making an apology for something he did live and couldn’t edit, some equipment failure, or something else.  Next comes the interview process, and there’s nothing new about that.  The Creative Screenwriting Magazine podcast is just what you would expect: a live, uncut interview recorded in front of an audience.  There’s nothing really bad about the concept or really great, it just “is what it is” which makes it so-so.

CONTENT 

The guests are very informative and each person or team’s career illuminates a lot in terms of movie making.  Personally, I’m addicted to hearing people talk about their craft in general, but screenwriters in particular have great minds for live interview, it seems.  They never cease to fascinate me.  They are very thorough storytellers and rarely shirk the question or give half-full responses.

WEBSITE

Awful!  Not coded right, so every page looks different.  Information is very difficult to find.
