Season 3, E18: Cracking Open the TV Industry: Strikes, Social Media, and Fair Pay with podcaster/TV writer Kyah Green
We're wrapping up our third season of High Low Brow, and what a ride it's been! We've had quite a diverse array of topics and guests and we take the first little bit to reflect on the wild and chaotic energy that fuels us, a few of our favourite moments, and what we're excited to bring into season four.
For this finale episode, we're diving into the chaos of the SAG/AFTRA strike, and how it has shaken up TV production and shone a light on the unfair pay structures. Joining us is the brilliant Kyah Green (they/them), a screenwriter, comedian, and co-host of The Fandom Show from Toronto.
In the episode, we ponder social media's chokehold on creativity and its impact on publishing. We also ask questions like whether the streaming model has led to an overconsumption issue leading us to view film and TV as content rather than art.
So, join us for our finale of the year! It's gonna be bigger, bolder, and packed with more insights than a treasure chest in a Hollywood blockbuster. We can’t wait to come back fresh in 2024.
