Join WBUR and friends at CitySpace for a new series of live tapings of your favorite podcasts. Meet the people who are shaping the podcast landscape and be the first to hear their next episode, get a sneak peek of audio left on the cutting room floor or dig deeper into the stories that captivated you.
It started with a tip. Eventually, multiple sources said it was an open secret: the founder of New Hampshire’s largest addiction treatment network was sexually harassing or assaulting women. How did he get away with it? That question led NHPR reporter Lauren Chooljian on a journey into the American substance use disorder treatment industry, where she found a longstanding — and long tolerated — culture of sexual misconduct. Along the way, she and her team also faced serious legal and safety challenges, including multiple incidents of vandalism.
Chooljian tells the whole story in the critically acclaimed series “The 13th Step” – hailed by New York Magazine and The New Yorker as one of the “best podcasts of 2023.”
Join us for a special listening event where you’ll get a chance to hear portions of the podcast. In-between listening, Chooljian and experts will join Amory Sivertson, host of the forthcoming WBUR podcast Beyond All Repair, to discuss the serious issues “The 13th Step” raises, from trauma and recovery to freedom of the press. They’ll also answer your questions.
From the team who made “Bear Brook” and “Stranglehold,” “The 13th Step” is for anyone who has been touched by the addiction crisis, who cares about the fate of the #MeToo movement or who seeks out gripping audio storytelling.
