Giving You THE BUSINESS

A magazine like ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY sets off my entertainment geekdom with its inside baseball conversations, but that taste was a just a bite compared to the feast that is KCRW's THE BUSINESS.
THE BUSINESS is hosted by Kim Masters, who previously covered general business stuff for NPR. Now she dives deep behind the scenes of the entertainment industry, as she explores a host of issues, including how movies get made, awards and the fall tv schedules. Masters demonstrates obviously knowledge of her industry, but the most compelling aspect of her hosting is her inquisitive nature. She asks the questions I wonder about as an outsider.

Below is a link to a recent episode where Masters talks about a movie financier from the Middle East and an interview with Michael Sheen.
