Interesting podcast style audiobook with interviews amongst the porn industry to find out about August Ames' suicide. What originally started out as a twitter pile on investigation leads Jon to discover some truths about pornography.

Women have to say that the filming went ok on video or else they won't get paid is one of the most disturbing.

Things most people already know, the porn stars themselves are drug addicts, or have mental instability of some sort, and some god forgive me for saying this, have some serious daddy issues. Those are not new revelations, but the way that they are approached in this bring it to light in a way that should make people think twice about porn consumption.

It was interesting and eye opening, but not what I would consider higher than average. Perhaps the focus on the husband--it's nearly as bad as a police investigation of a husband's involvement. But if you are interested in these things, then you should definitely check it out.
