Show Notes

In the podcast series Radiotopia Presents: Shocking, Heartbreaking, Transformative, host and producer Jess Shane questions the value of some basic tenets of documentary storytelling — guidelines we follow here at LAist — like, never pay your subjects, and don’t share editorial control with them. 

The five-part series sparked so many conversations for us at LAist that Imperfect Paradise Antonia Cereijido sat down with Jess to talk about the questions she raises in the series about how to make documentaries more ethically.
