In this episode, Smish interviews screenwriter and director Nabil Chowdhary, who walks us through the process of what it’s like to get on the Black List and have the #1 script on the Hit List. Nabil’s feature Pod was not only included on these coveted lists, but it also was the overall winner of the Screencraft Sci-fi contest, and that is what really set things in motion.

He talks about how he used IMDb to research managers, the three key people he shares scripts with for feedback, plus gives us the EXCLUSIVE scoop on the Oscar-nominated screenwriter/producer who optioned Pod!
