<html><p>The internet might call Damien Hauser an AI filmmaker, but would he? According to him, "definitely not.” </p><p>And we agree. In this week’s episode, we sat down with the 24-year-old writer and director to talk about his latest feature, Memory of Princess Mumbi, the Venice-premiering, award-winning film that’s sparked conversation for its use of AI.</p><p>When Tania and I saw the film at TIFF, we walked away less interested in the controversy and more interested in how Damien made it, why he chose this approach, and what it means for independent filmmakers trying to tell ambitious stories outside the traditional system.</p><p>We talk about the making of Memory of Princess Mumbi, the misconceptions around AI, authorship, the ethics of using these tools, and why he pushes back so strongly against being labeled an “AI filmmaker.” </p><p>As always, thanks for listening <3</p><p>Indie forever, in good company.</p></html>

<html><p>This week on the podcast, we’re talking about the highs and lows of living an unstructured life.</p><p>The freedom can be beautiful. No set path, no rigid schedule, no one telling you exactly how your days have to look. But that same freedom can also become exhausting when there are no real boundaries, no sick days, no clear off-switch, and no one else coming to manage the chaos for you. So, this week we discuss what it means for us to build a life outside of traditional structure, and how sometimes, even when you choose that freedom, you still find yourself craving something steady to anchor you. Plus, Sasha shares a bit about her upcoming planned sabbatical. </p><p>As always, thanks for listening! <3</p><p></p></html>

<html><p>This week on the podcast: notes!</p><p>How to give them. How to receive them. How to figure out which ones are actually useful and which ones are just someone projecting their own taste onto your work.</p><p>A very real conversation about notes, ego, perspective, and protecting the core of your story while still staying open to feedback. This week we talk about the difference between taste and actual story problems, why context matters when asking for notes, and why the kind of day you’re having when you receive feedback actually matters A LOT.</p><p>As always, thanks for listening <3</p></html>
