General Meeting with Becky Sloviter – Details, episodes & analysis

General Meeting with Becky Sloviter is a new podcast that brings to life the same fun, thoughtful, and inspiring conversations I’ve been having with actors, writers, and filmmakers in so-called “general meetings” for the past 20 years as a Hollywood producer — now in podcast form. We’re living through extraordinary times and I want this show to reflect that - authentic conversations with smart and talented actors, writers who have made you laugh and cry, and filmmakers who inspire you. My hope is these fun and creative conversations will help us all feel a little more connected — and a little less alone. Because we're all going through it these days, but as the iconic Penny Lane says in my third favorite movie of all time: ”Famous people are just more interesting.” Welcome to General Meeting with Becky Sloviter.
