Screenwriters are striking, celebrities are turning up on picket lines and creating viral moments, and all our fave shows are ceasing production. But the implications of a writers strike are bigger than the next series of Stranger Things being delayed. In this episode, Ione and Eden are diving into how past writers strikes have effected culture; from the dawn of reality tv, to a decline in media literacy, and whether the 2007 strike paved the way for Trump to become president.
