'Better Call Saul' Boss Peter Gould Almost Made a Clinton-Lewinsky Movie With Puppets

This week we're joined by Peter Gould, one of our favorite writers. The co-creator of "Better Call Saul" talks about a project he almost made with HBO years before he joined the "Breaking Bad" writer's room. If you're enjoying Season 2 of "Slow Burn," we're pretty sure you'll love his idea to retell the Clinton-Lewinsky saga... with shadow puppets. We also talk about a great Pam Grier idea, what's up with Saul and Kim, and how to be a good writer and editor. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We talk about true stories that we think should be made into TV shows or movies. First we talk about why they belong on-screen -- then we talk about how we'd like to see them on-air: Who should direct, who should write, who should star. We dig up lesser-known people whose stories deserve to be told, forgotten moments in history, and fresh angles on very familiar memories.Your hosts, Tim and Deirdre, are married writers who only recommend stories that we would personally want to see.
