The Business podcast
with Kim Masters
The Business is a weekly interview-based screenwriting podcast hosted by Hollywood Reporter journalist Kim Masters, in which she interviews the cream of Hollywood’s writers, producers, directors and actors.
A typical highlight is the February 2018 episode in which she interviews writer/director Jordan Peele and they talk about how he embraced fear to make Get Out. This podcast isn’t necessarily as screenwriting-focused as some of the others but is still well worth a listen. Subscribe >>
Draft Zero podcast
with Chas Fisher & Stu Willis
This monthly screenwriting podcast is hosted by two Australian screenwriters, Chas Fisher and Stu Willis in which they break down pro screenplays and try to figure out what makes them work.
In any given episode you’ll hear them riffing on subjects such as MacGuffins, creating compelling characters and plot vs. character driven movies. Probably one of the best screenwriting podcasts available if you’re looking for specific discussions on the craft. Subscribe >>
