DESCRIPTION:
(from CNN's web site, November 2022) This is Life with Lisa Ling returns with award-winning journalist and author Lisa Ling as she ventures to the far corners of America, exploring communities that are often unknown or misunderstood. In this CNN Original Series, produced by Part2 Pictures, Ling investigates some of our country’s most pressing issues and uncovers some surprising solutions along the way. This season on This is Life, Ling examines how technology is shaping love, sex, and human relationships following the widespread social isolation of the COVID-19 pandemic. Next, she surveys mothers who seek out sperm donors on Facebook and reveals the true motives of a man who has fathered over one hundred children with more on the way. In the backwoods of Arkansas, Ling discovers the fate of hundreds of tigers, bred and held captive by the so-called “kings” of a blockbuster TV series. Ling then journeys to the streets of her hometown of Los Angeles, an area that has become ground zero for America’s severe mental health crisis, uncovering the horror but also the hope for those society seems to have cast aside. Later, with racial strife playing out in cities across the country, she communes with the followers of a newer religion that proclaims interracial marriage as a possible pathway to world peace. Finally, Ling travels to Denver, a city often known for its legal pot culture, and finds that another legal substance – alcohol – has become America’s worst addiction.
