Not rare to have repeat guests, but somewhat rare to have them back so quickly, and what a treat! It’s Leah Sottile (@Leah_Sottile)! You might remember her from Ep. 322 when we talked about her book When the Moon Turns to Blood. You also might remember her from the podcast series Bundyville.
And she’s back with another killer podcast called Burn Wild, taking a look at far-left extremism, particularly the environmental movement of the 1990s with the Environmental Liberation Front.
It’s what I’ve come to expect from Leah: Deeply researched and thoroughly written, delivered in her pull-up-a-stool narration.
In this episode we riff on freelancing, why we write, writing for audio vs. print, and some of the nuts and bolts of reporting audio like when do they turn their recorders on? I love her newsletter, and you might want to consider signing up for hers.
