S3 E17: Preeti Chhibber & This Episode Is About Titanic

Claribel and Kat discuss what “growing as a writer” means
to them. Then they interview the hilarious and charming Preeti
Chhibber about her time working on the other side of the table in
publishing, go on a (long) tangent about the Titanic, what it was
like writing IP for huge franchises like
Spider-Man and Star
Wars, and that one time she made Jake Gyllenhall
laugh (twice!)
