John and Craig take a look back at the WGA-Agency campaign, revisiting the initial assumptions, what went right, what went wrong, and what lessons were learned. Then they finally decode the encrypted USB drive John handed Craig a year ago.
We also follow up on social media and answer listener questions on cold feet and how screenwriters take vacations.
In our bonus segment for premium members, we offer advice to our 20-year-old selves.
