Edge of Fame is a podcast hosted by Geoff Edgers and produced as a collaboration between radio station WBUR and The Washington Post. Edgers, drawing on his experience as a journalist, documentary filmmaker, writer, and National Arts Reporter for The Washington Post, investigates the lives of various celebrities and performers on the dark and humorous sides of show business. Each podcast episode focuses on Edgers shadowing a specific performer for a long period of time. Eschewing a typical one-on-one interview style, Edgers assembles a combination of interviews, testimonials, and anecdotes from various voices he encounters along the way.
