Inside “The Fall of Diddy” — Yoruba Richen & Emma Schwartz


Listen Later

How do you film a story the industry would rather ignore—and keep everyone safe along the way? Hosts Gretchen McCourt and Renee Rossi sit down with award-winning directors Yoruba Richen and Emma Schwartz to unpack the making of The Fall of Diddy (Max/ID). They walk us through:

  • The emotional tightrope of interviewing survivors of abuse

  • The concrete safety steps taken to protect sources and crew

  • Why cultural context matters when wealth and celebrity cloud accountability

  • The balance between rigorous journalism and empathetic storytelling

In Her Words presents thoughtful conversations with leaders across entertainment from film and television to media and gaming and everything in between; as we talk about what it takes to make your mark in the industry, lessons these incredible people have learned along the way, and how they have found their way in an ever-changing environment. With in-depth conversations and pre-submitted listener questions, each episode provides candid advice for navigating today’s entertainment industry, giving listeners an inside look at how key players got their start, and guidance for building the necessary toolkit to bring careers to life in film, TV, music, theater, graphics, writing, animation and beyond.
