Reckless Creatives Podcast – Joel Church-Cooper: Showrunner of ‘Going Dutch’ on Family, TV Writing, A.I. and the Changing Industry

Hosts Jeanne and Sadie chat with “budget expert” and showrunner Joel Church-Cooper about everything except maybe his grocery list.

A Pipeline Artists original podcast about nothing and everything. Hosts Sadie Dean and Jeanne Veillette Bowerman share the truth, and nothing but the truth, about the challenges and benefits of living life as artists, striving for freedom to create in any medium, even ones you never thought of before. It's honest—no sugarcoating or selling hope. We tell it like it is, while always finding ways to make lemonade out of lemons. Think of us as Michael Bay, but with action items that don’t explode.


This is quite literally the most information-packed episode we've had. Jeanne and Sadie chat with "budget expert" and showrunner Joel Church-Cooper about everything except maybe his grocery list.

We dive into running a show in Ireland, juggling family and career, tips for writers to write to a smaller budget, the future of A.I., and tons of career advice. 

Put your earbuds in and have at it!
