Episode 7: The Best I.P. (ft. Victoria Vertuga)

Join your host Justin Stillmaker for Connect The Dots, a brand new Network Podcast, as he talks about the love/hate relationship between art, money, and more. 

Justin kicks this episode off with the SAG-AFTRA strike and how we got to where we are now, then continues with a special guest: Victoria Vertuga! Victoria shares her unique perspective on the strike as an actor, producer, and writer. The pair also discuss her latest short film: Cold Blows The Wind (available later this year!)

After the interview, Justin switches up the show and rolls right into who won art this week: Barbie (2023). From Barbieheimer to the Malibu Playhouse pop-ups, the marketing for Greta Gerwig’s latest film has taken on a life of its own. This rolls right into the subgenre of the week: The Best I.P., films like Pirates of the Caribbean (2003), Bumblebee (2018), Jumanji (2017), & Clue (1985) bring to life the intellectual properties we love.

To end the episode, Justin shares  some unique recommendations for your film and TV viewing pleasure.

Connect The Dots will air every other Thursday at 6 PM CST from The Network Twitch Channel: twitch.tv/hopeforusnetwork so be sure to follow and subscribe for more!
