AtL In a Flash for April 26, 2021

On this week's episode, we invite Joe Giordano and Daniel Dreyfus to the program to talk about the resurgence of film, shooting fires and protests, and documentary films we either have seen or want to see in 2025.

After far too long, Around the Lens is BACK! The show you know and love featuring a wide variety of guests and topics, is back with a new title, "Roundtable Discussions." You might be asking, "Why change the show name?" Well, here's why: Around the Lens is more than just one show; it's a platform for visual creatives in photography, photojournalism, documentary, and narrative filmmaking to gather and discuss various aspects of our craft. This show, Roundtable Discussions, is just that: a group discussion about one or more topics that deserve introspection and analysis. The topic might be highly relevant and newsworthy, or it might be an evergreen topic that we're all just eager to discuss. Either way, we welcome you on this journey and hope you'll join us each week. In this week's episode, we're joined by long-time AtL alums, Jamie Rose and Mike "Sharky" James. These guests, who have been with the show since the beginning, join co-hosts David J. Murphy and Zach Roberts for a riveting discussion about the effects and impacts of generative AI in the worlds of photography and photojournalism.
