LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With!

Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with the deluxe double-team screenwriting genius pairing of CRAIG MAZIN and JOHN AUGUST!

You may be well versed in the 700+ episode archive of the Scriptnotes podcast, or you may be entirely dehydrated through sheer tear dispensation via Big Fish, or perhaps be a little shaken through exposure to The Last Of Us and/or Chernobyl... Whatever the case - hopefully by now you will have caught at least some of the work generated by these two, as it is a rare thing to have such an insanely great body of work displaying such consistency. A triple-voice dream of an episode which will be sheer indulgence for all movie loving folk, and if you are yet unacquainted with John and Craig, you're about to make some good friends here and hopefully investigate their work after listening... You won't be disappointed.
