Hollywood, but make it real. Fun, authentic conversations with the people who make the stuff we love — and the friends I’ve been lucky enough to make along the way.
I’ve spent the past 20 years as a Hollywood producer having what’s known as “general meetings” — one-on-one sit-downs with actors, writers, and filmmakers. These personal and creative conversations have always been my favorite part of the job — the moments when the glossy version of Hollywood drops away and you connect with the real person across from you. So now, I’m bringing that to life as a podcast.
Each week on General Meeting with Becky Sloviter, I sit down with smart, funny, and talented friends — actors and writers who have made us laugh and cry, and filmmakers who inspire us — for real conversations about creativity, connection, and everything in between. My hope is that these chats will help us all feel a little more connected — and a little less alone.
Because we’re all going through it these days — but as the iconic Penny Lane says in my third favorite movie of all time: “Famous people are just more interesting.”
Welcome to General Meeting with Becky Sloviter.
For this week's episode, Becky sits down with actor / writer / filmmaker and one of the nicest human beings on the planet, Jillian Bell (SUMMER OF 69, BRITTANY RUNS A MARATHON), to discuss directing her first movie, the influence of her amazing father Ron Bell, and why '80s and '90s movies are always the perfect medicine.
