Soul Searching, Soul Food, and the Upside Down: The Moth Radio Hour
A
41:47Amy SegalGUEST
Eight years ago, when my mom was dying, she needed morphine every four hours, and so my sister and I took shifts.
A
41:55Amy SegalGUEST
And one night, after placing the drops under her tongue, because she was mostly unconscious, I pulled some old photo albums off the shelf of her study, and I was flipping through them as I sat cross-legged on her queen-size bed next to her.
A
42:19Amy SegalGUEST
[laughing] And it wasn't online, but it was the same concept of, "This is my perfect life, and these are my carefully curated postings." Because it was a far f- cry from what was actually happening My mom and dad separated on multiple occasions.

Short Stack Will Prevail: Trivia with the Pure of Heart
14:54

Sean McPhersonHOST
Do the people who win arm wrestling competitions look like they could fucking win an arm wrestling competition?
A
15:13Amy SiegelGUEST
Now, although I am also a lady of husk and have like considerable arms, just like trivia, I was definitely the sizzle.

Opportunities for Increased Liquidity Production Companies Should Know
I
4:12Ilan HaimoffHOST
What can they do with that these days, especially in connection with companies potentially buying or lending against these rights?
A
4:21Amy SiegelGUEST
So the contingent compensation rights that you're speaking about are really just a profit participation.
A
4:32Amy SiegelGUEST
There's lots of different ways we talk about the same thing, which is participating in the profits of the film or the TV project.
A
4:40Amy SiegelGUEST
And while those have been, you know, around for a long time to pay talent, when you speak about a growing area, I think what we're seeing more and more of is opportunities to either lend against those contingent compensation rights or more recent growth, I think, in the area of outright purchasing those contingent compensation rights.
A
4:59Amy SiegelGUEST
And in that case, certainly in the outright purchase context, the buyer essentially assumes the risk of the performance of that project, and the seller gets to capture immediate liquidity.
24 MINS LATER
I
28:54Ilan HaimoffHOST
Look, what I want to do is I want to kind of circle back to all three of you just to see if there's any other opportunities, you know, either where it's cost efficiency or cash flow that we haven't covered that perhaps you wanted to bring up.
Catherine O’Hara/The Cons Convention/A mayor with a vision
4:40

Ben MulroneyHOST
Talk to me about your work at Schitt's Creek and how long you were there on set for and with the production for.
A
4:54Amy SiegelGUEST
At the last season, I, um... directed a behind the scenes documentary about the show.
A
5:00Amy SiegelGUEST
And so I did spend a lot of time with her specifically, you know, we talked about her work within the wardrobe and, um, she, she, she was just, you know, you meet so many celebrities and we worked on e-talk and you meet everyone.
