S10E3. Lea Thau

From her home in Burbank, Aarhus-born, Peabody Award-winning Danish podcast host, director, and producer LEA THAU retraces her journey from New York to Los Angeles, first leading The Moth, the live platform for storytellers, to creating the podcast Strangers. Lea describes the gradual insertion of own self at the center of her storytelling, exemplified by the "Love Hurts" and "Lea in Trumpland" miniseries. And after a 7-year hiatus, she hints at upcoming shows of yet another kind of storytelling. ----------For today's episode, Lea Thau chose Erik Henningsen's Sat ud, or Evicted Tenants, from 1892 from the collection of the National Gallery of Denmark.https://open.smk.dk/en/artwork/image/KMS1454 ----------Photographer: Kevin Zacker----------This conversation with Christian D.
