Suave
Description
The Pulitzer Prize-winning podcast returns for its second season!
Seven years after his release from prison, former juvenile lifer Luis "Suave" Gonzalez seems to be thriving. His career has taken off, he’s in a committed relationship and he’s received public recognition after telling his story on the podcast. Suave always thought once he was out of prison and found stability in his new life, he would finally feel truly free. But freedom, it turns out, is more complicated than it seems. "Suave" is a deeply intimate portrait of a man battling the lingering trauma of incarceration and his search for happiness in the outside world after a near-lifetime in prison. In this season we explore the long shadow of prison.
Season 2 of Suave releases new episodes weekly starting on April 15, 2025.
Maria's relationship with Suave definitely sounds WAY more than just a journalist/friend relationship.
I didn't want to criticize because I'm loving this so far. I do want to know (and maybe they get to it later in the podcast) if Maria has considered how her role as executive producer shapes the narrative. Would the story be told differently if a different team of journalists put it together? How objective can they be with the boss a central "character"?
Too dramatic, definitely crossed the journalism/friend line on this episode.
This looks promising subscribed
