098 The Thin Man with Writers and Directors Cat Youell and Brad Crowe

Cat Youell and Brad Crowe, Writers and Directors, join Susan and Ben to discuss The Thin Man, a 1934 mystery-comedy. Cat and Brad share what it’s like pursuing careers as writers while working as stand-ins for TV. They share their experience meeting at USC's MFA program, standing-in for Kaitlin Olson on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and learning about stunts and effects on the CW’s Supergirl set. They also discuss watching the rewrite process on the set of Veep, launching Minx Pictures for female-led comedies, reading dialogue in a closet with Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and eating Jon Favreau's famous grilled cheese sandwiches on the set of The Orville. Cat and Brad play our “Filmagories” game.
