Former Editor-in-Chief of National Geographic Chris Johns returns in part two of this conversation — taking us behind the scenes of how some of the world’s most powerful stories are shaped. If you haven’t listened to part one of my conversation with Chris yet, I’d really recommend going back and starting there first. It gives you the full picture of how this story unfolds.

We pick up right where we left off, diving into stories from photographers in the field, what really happens behind the images we all know so well, and how those moments evolve into stories that reach millions of people.

We also go deeper into what it means to lead one of the most influential publications in the world — how decisions are made, what Chris expected from photographers, and how storytelling can influence the way people understand global events.

Along the way, there are moments of laughter, of reflection, but also plenty of humanity — from conversations about family and legacy to the inspiration of amazing people like Jane Goodall, and how storytelling continues across generations.

Grab a coffee, settle in, and join us for part two of this conversation with Chris Johns.
