If the overall theme of SXSW 2016 was one of convergence, perhaps no individual was more representative of that theme than film producer, radio host, podcast producer, entrepreneur, and overall editor extraordinaire Ira Glass. At SXSW, we spoke to Ira about his role as a producer on the Mike Birbiglia SXSW premiere Don't Think Twice, but he was also attending the festival in another capacity: as a featured panelist. His conversation with LA Times reporter Mark Olson covered his "other job" as producer and host of the radio show This American Life, as well as the editorial advisor of the podcast smash success Serial. But to Glass, it's all the same thing: he likens his role on film and radio to an "editor" regardless of the medium (though he finds movies to be a "horrible process").
You can watch the full panel from SXSW below, or read on for the takeaways from attending in-person.
