What happens when a group of journalists from immigrant backgrounds gets together in the middle of a pandemic to make a podcast about the American Dream

In a conversation moderated by veteran editor and reporter Carolina González (Latino USA, The NY Daily News), the team who made the A Better Life? podcast discusses decision-making, editing choices, and lessons learned that can help other news organizations and production teams.

The conversation was originally presented before a live audience on Zoom on December 3rd, 2020.
