Networking 101

This week, the Optimists are back for a networking crash course. From networking nightmares, to success stories, advice, and everything in between, we have you covered as you navigate your way through the film industry.

Let's Talk Television

This week, the Optimists are back to deep dive into their favorite TV shows. From Glee to The Haunting of Hill House and Dance Moms, Christen and Gabrielle hold nothing back about their love for TV.

Our 2025 Wrapped

Happy New Year! This week, the Optimists are back to reminisce on 2025 and look ahead to 2026. They recount their personal wins, favorite movies, artists, songs, albums, and brain rot from the last year, and dive into their career manifestations and pop culture predictions for 2026.

Why We Dream Big

This week, the Optimists are back for a candid conversation about the origin of their creative passions and why they're still fighting to pursue those dreams. The two reminisce on early creative sparks, the highs and lows of the education system, and the reality of navigating an industry that wasn’t built with them in mind. Along the way, they unpack confidence, competition, representation, and what it really means to bet on yourself when the path isn’t stable or straightforward.
