28:39

For centuries, members of the B’doul Bedouin tribe lived in the caves around the ancient city of Petra, Jordan. Then, in the 1980s, the government forced the tribe to move in the name of preserving the geological site for tourists. But if the residents are forced to leave, and if their heritage has been permanently changed, then what exactly is being preserved? SHOW NOTES: Meet The Man Living in The Lost City Carved in Stone Jordan: Petra's tourism authority cracks down on Bedouin cave dwellers The tribes paying the brutal price of conservation “There is no future for Umm Sayhoun” Jordan’s Young Bedouins Are Documenting Their Traditions on TikTok Check out Sami's company Jordan Inspiration Tours Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices…

24: "How to Survive on Set: The Set Production Assistant’s Guidebook" author Jessica Dean Rose 47:51

hace 5 years47:51

Today, we dig into set life with author of "How to Survive on Set: The Set Production Assistant's Guidebook" and Assistant Director for feature films, Jessica Dean Rose. She had to learn the hard way how to become a great production assistant, from lingo to etiquette. With that, she felt it was important to share the knowledge she had gained, so she self-published the handiest book for aspiring PA's. We had a great time learning a few tidbits of set life. Verdict: it sounds awesome and daunting.
