YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn this episode of VICE Inside, Shane Smith sits down with longtime VICE producer Alex Chitty to look back on their reporting in Venezuela — from its most chaotic years to a very different reality today.
They revisit some of VICE’s most infamous shoots, including a trip embedded with cocaine traffickers moving product through West Africa — a story that became legendary during VICE’s early, anything-goes era.
Shane and Alex reflect on filming in Caracas when it was the murder capital of the world — covering riots, tear gas, and violent street clashes — and compare it to returning more recently, where parts of the country felt almost unrecognizable.
They also touch on the strange legacy of those early years, from parody to perception, before turning to what might come next for Venezuela after recent political changes.
A conversation about risk, memory, and how both a place and the people reporting on it evolve over time.
