Keeping it Positive with Austin Francis

Austin Francis practices pitching and tells us about his networking experiences. We also talk about the movie business and what it takes to be a screenwriter.

Then, Emily talks about her ringneck doves, and Jon Meyers and Emily play an “Underconsumption Core” scavenger hunt.

Check back next week for our episode with Bob Sáenz where we go even deeper into the business.
