If you're a reporter who likes to investigate, you need to listen to Longform's conversations with this year's George Polk Awards winners. I look forward to these every year. The conversations energize me and offer a glimpse into the minds of insanely talented journalists.

The conversations with the George Polk Awards winning journalists on the Longform podcast were all universally excellent. Just a great reminder that there are dedicated people doing really important work even if it isn’t necessarily blasted across the front page of the NYTimes.

The final interview in our series with winners of this year’s George Polk Awards:

Jason Motlagh (@JasonMotlagh), journalist and filmmaker, who won the Sydney Schanberg Prize for “This Will End in Blood and Ashes,” an account of the collapse of order in Haiti
