You'll first hear Jason's interview with writer/director Tom McCarthy and co-writer Josh Singer at the film’s Washington D.C. premiere at the National Portrait Gallery in November 2015, where Jason also interviewed "The Wire" creator David Simon, who hosted a Q&A with the real Boston Globe reporters. You'll then go backstage at the Oscars in 2016 to hear McCarthy and Singer react to winning Best Original Screenplay, followed by "Spotlight" producers Michael Sugar, Steve Golin, Nicole Rocklin and Blye Pagon Faust celebrating Best Picture. Finally, you'll hear Jason catch up with David Simon again in 2017 to react to "Spotlight" winning Best Picture and the troubling state of journalism in the 21st century.
