We do something a little different with this episode, and begin with a discussion of one of our friendship touchstones, the 1998 film You’ve Got Mail. Takes have been popping up everywhere lately, and we talk about why it matters and how it works, and what it means to us — twenty-five years ago and now.
But don’t worry — we also catch you up with some big changes in our work and writing lives. Routines, schedules, first drafting, and what’s going on now [jump to minute 21 for this part of the show].
You can listen right here on this page, or get Marginally on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play, or wherever get your podcasts.
