Send all your documentary recommendations, Rita is finally able to stream!!This week we’re talking about Shiny Happy People. Have you seen it?Documentaries - production and consumption - have increased exponentially over the past decade as streaming abilities and options have increased. There are some amazing documentaries being made - our friend, Keely Covello of America Unwon, has done just that. Documentaries have the ability to be beautiful, fair, and honest but can also be used to form public opinion and reshape perception - good or bad, right or wrong.Shiny Happy People may begin in sharing a very tragic story, one that involves abuse…but is that the message they’re actually trying to send? Even documentaries need to be watched with a critical eye.PODCAST MENTIONS:Shiny Happy People, Duggar Family Secretshttps://www.amazon.com/Shiny-Happy-People-Duggar-Secrets/dp/B0B8TR2QV5EP 150: Why do Christians believe, say and think that?
