Documentarian JEANIE FINLAY & Script Supervisor DAWN GILLIAM

Our podcast team member Penni Malloy-Harper, who received Spotify recognition for having the Top Episode of The Year on our show, brings us an outstanding interview with Script Supervisor Dawn Gilliam. Her credits include an iconic list of movies and television shows such BOYZ N THE HOOD, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Hunger Games, Lost, and Marvel's Agents of Shield. She also teaches an online course, “The Art of Continuity.” 

Also, Janine McGoldrick has an impactful conversation with Jeanie Finlay, one of Britain’s most distinctive documentarians, about her new film Your Fat Friend. Made over 6 years, it charts the rise of writer and activist Aubrey Gordon from anonymous blogger to NYTimes best selling author and beloved podcaster. Her aim? A paradigm shift in the way we see fat people and the fat on our own bodies.

Hosts Janine and Tammy Reese discuss the current awards season and recommendations to keep you entertained for the rest of the year!
