Description

This week on The Line of Fire, Ramita continues her conversation with the award-winning Peruvian journalist and documentary maker Guillermo Galdos.    In Part two Guillermo tells Ramita about his meeting with one of the world’s most notorious drug lords “La Tuta”, who was too drunk and high to interview, and about getting on the wrong side of cartel boss El Chapo’s wife.    We’ll hear how a single moment coming under attack in Colombia changed Guillermo forever.   Ramita and Guillermo’s conversation is interrupted by a text message Guillermo receives with some shocking news. Listener discretion is advised.    Show Notes: If you want to learn more about Guillermo’s work, check out his page on the Channel 4 News website.  You can watch Guillermo’s film about the history of the Colombian conflict El Testigo on Netflix.  Follow Guillermo on Twitter: @GuillermoGaldos

What can facing death and danger teach us about humanity and the world we live in, and what wisdom can be learned from working in war zones? In every episode, foreign correspondent Ramita Navai, renowned for seeking the ‘story behind the story’, talks to a fellow war reporter about the life-changing moment they faced death. As guests recount jaw-dropping stories, many never told before of kidnap and danger, they explore how the experience forever altered their outlook, and what it revealed about the way the world really works - the good and the bad.
