Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

2025 Muse Honorees Lisa Cortés and Teen Vogue's Versha Sharma
Q: What changes do you hope to see in Hollywood in the coming years?
I hope that Hollywood, independent financiers, and alternate means of distribution continue to support documentaries and filmmakers because those stories are really necessary.
2025 Muse Honorees Lisa Cortés and Teen Vogue's Versha Sharma
Q: What does it mean for you logistically, spiritually, professionally to be a working parent in a high-pressure media job?
It is definitely challenging, and I appreciate you asking the question. I think I'm lucky enough to have mentors and to know other women in high-profile positions who have had babies on the job or have younger children, and I go to them for advice all the time.
Documentarian Sarah Botstein on "The American Revolution"
Q: What do you think that audiences may not know or might challenge what they thought they knew?
Many might not appreciate the extensive duration of the war and its brutalities, the significance of the Native American experience, and the roles women played during the Revolution.
Documentarian Sarah Botstein on "The American Revolution"
Q: Why does this history feel especially vital now given where we are as a nation today?
The American Revolution provides a necessary reminder of our complex origins and the various perspectives involved, which can encourage empathy and understanding in today's political climate.
