ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
What does it really take to build a life in the creative industries?
Strip The Script goes beyond the credits, premieres and polished success stories to uncover the real experiences behind extraordinary creative careers.
Hosted by award-winning actor and producer Jazz Lintott, each episode sits down with leading actors, filmmakers and creators for an honest conversation about the moments that shaped them — the breakthroughs and rejections, the risks, relationships, sacrifices, mistakes and mindset that rarely make it into the traditional interview.
From navigating rejection and self-doubt to handling success when it finally arrives, Strip The Script explores not only what our guests achieved, but who they had to become along the way.
Season One features conversations with Katherine McNamara, Mena Massoud, Steve Carr, Adjani Salmon, William Stanford Davis and Jimmy Akingbola — six very different careers, with lessons that reach far beyond the entertainment industry.
No formula. No perfect path. No script.
