  • Read It And Weep
    One of the funniest podcasts out there

    If you're like me you hate things that suck, and there are a lot of things that suck out there in the world. Thankfully, Read It And Weep is there to dish it out to the crappy pop fiction that deserve it the most. Twilight, The Lost Symbol... The Notebook.... They all had it coming. Listen and enjoy!

Part comedy, part tragedy, it’s the life of a writing team trying to make it in Hollywood. We’ve sold movies, we’re in the Writer’s Guild, we’ve pitched TV shows to networks – but we’re still working on our big break. Our show is about writing, Hollywood and our experiences on the way to…we wish we knew what.
