:: ::

How do you write something deeply personal without coming off like an asshole? How do you share your fears, insecurities, anger, and desperation without taking a shit on your life and everyone else in it? It happens a lot. When it's not done well, a personal story can be really self-serving, icky and frustrating to watch/read/listen to/etc. So...how do you avoid that? How do you, instead, make something that feels profound, revealing, and intimate? We discuss!

Also, Josh recommends James Cameron's classic Aliens, and Ira recommends Richard Linklater's artsy Waking Life.
