BREAK - IN EPISODE 21 - Catching up and some big big news
It's been a while hasn't it? We've not been playing tennis. Or writing. Or anything that we were supposed to be doing. But somehow... just somehow... there's news. Enough for a Nadal fist pump. What is that news...? Well you'll have to listen to find out. As we near the 12 month time limit could we have possibly made it...?

THE BREAK - IN EPISODE 20: PITCHING PROBLEMS
So way back in Episode 15 (https://soundcloud.com/thebreakin/breakin-episode-15) we talked about pitching, how we would do it and who we would pitch to. Well now we've done it. Here's how we got on, what we learned and some links to the materials Robin created and how these progressed as he pitched.
There's also a frank assessment of how Robin's chat with Jairo Alvarado from Circle of Confusion went. Was it worth $149? No. But maybe the notes he's sending will be.
Here's the link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3f9uj2fpalf2ulk/AABM6gl9U5hGNDaZEZgNuLV_a?dl=0
And here's that online teleprompter he was talking about.

BREAK - IN EPISODE 19 - 'The tough get going'
After a seasonally based festive hiatus, Robin and Simon are back living in a new era of billionaire commanders and swear words. This week they discuss the realities of writing scripts (they take a long time) and the value of rewriting. Simon is in a parkour and cheerleading gym so apologies for his audio and Robin has a potty mouth.
