For three decades, I've aspired to write screenplays. However, as a single mother and the owner of an agency that books professional speakers, celebrities, and notable presenters (I'm an expert in the industry), along with one challenge after another, life kept getting in the way. Still, I immersed myself in the craft whenever I could. I own practically every book ever written on screenwriting and had a couple of screenplays in the works. Finally, I was able to get serious. In doing so, I recently discovered screenwriting podcasts. Without a doubt, Jacob Krueger's "Write Your Screenplay" podcast is my absolute favorite. Within the last month, I've listened to every single episode. I truly appreciate Jacob's unwavering wisdom, his uncanny ability to dig deep into the psychology of a film, the spiritual way he looks at things, and his infectious voice.

Whenever I get stuck, I listen to an episode and I can write again! Thanks to Jacob, I've finished three short screenplays in three months. That's a big leap for me. He offers a lot of amazing techniques and concepts that I've never thought of before but are absolutely useful. Thank you!

I crave this podcast more than any other. I crave this podcast more than any other.

As a wanna-be screenwriter, I find the way the films are broken down in these podcasts gives me great insight for my own writing.

Jacob is giving away gold.

I listen primarily to film-related podcasts and this is far and away the best one dedicated to the art and craft of screenwriting. Many times I found my options for insight limited to either outdated or just plain nonsensical “rules” of screenwriting gurus or non-specific if not jaded advice from even some of my favorite working writers. This podcast provides honest and nuanced lessons that can be applied to every aspect of the writing process. I can not recommend it highly enough.

Jacob Krueger is very insightful and truly knows how to break down a film, whether it was good or not and helps you understand the elements that either make or break your script. I also have to say that after listening to his podcasts more and more, I have felt the urge to write more, no matter how bad my writing might be at the beginning. I know the more I write, the closer I’ll get to my best material as well as where I need to go.

Listening to Jacob is like taking a masterclass in screenwriting and having your head cleared in a therapy session at the same time… Next level, consciousness-raising stuff.

I absolutely love this podcast and look forward to every episode. Jacob breaks down films and explains why they worked or why they didn’t work like no other. Each podcast inspires me to keep writing. Even if you are not a writer, this podcast will help you enjoy films more

This is by far the most insightful and consistently rich-with-advice podcast I’ve found. Krueger has such a surgically clear understanding of what makes a story work on the screen that he’s able to crystallize the problems or successes of a film/show in the most helpful and practical ways.
