  • Big Announcement!
    May 4 2026

    Big news today! Misha is honored to have been asked to include one of her recent films in the Tribeca Film Festival. Between this and her upcoming class with Sundance Collab, plus some of her other projects in development, it's a busy time! So we are putting it to you: our audience. Do you love the podcast? Do you want it to continue? If we hear demand from you the listeners (and watchers), we will carry on, but given that this is as of now an unsponsored show, we are reassessing how to apportion time and resources. Drop us a line at info@clubvermilion.com with your thoughts. We want to hear from you!

    We are lucky enough to have grabbed Shannon Gisela for an episode before she completely blows up! Her new crime show M.I.A. on Peacock, from the creator or OZARK, is an absolutely stunning vehicle for Shannon’s talent. In this episode, Shannon talks us through her amazing journey from “normal” actor auditioning and living life, to being #1 on the call sheet in a brand new TV show. Be sure to tune in for her advice on confidence, navigating Hollywood, and how to use your mindset to start booking projects that will move the needle.

  • Difficult Collaborators
    Apr 20 2026

    The creative industry is by nature collaborative…but that doesn’t mean that every collaboration is fun. Sometimes they are incredibly difficult! The stress of production can bring out the worst in people, and also the best. It's up to you to decide who you want to work with, and how you want to handle situations as they arise, and when to walk away. And make sure you're not the difficult collaborator! Host Misha Calvert takes you through decades of experience as an artist dealing with all manner of collaborators. Be sure to tune into this episode for solid tips on working with others and how to handle bumps in the road.
