The Real, the Raw, and the Ridiculous: Discovering Kanopy’s Wildest Documentaries

Streaming video - 2025

Welcome back to THE FILM LIBRARY, a Kanopy podcast where we dig into eye-opening documentaries, unforgettable characters, and stories so strange they have to be true—no film degree required. This week, hosts Kristy Puchko (Entertainment Editor at Mashable) and Jeff Rauseo (film lover, documentary junkie, and proud champion of VHS oddities) dive into the wild, weird, and deeply personal world of documentaries. From baseball pitchers on LSD and DIY Spielberg tributes to miniature war towns and midlife creative crises, Kristy and Jeff spotlight some of their favorite nonfiction stories currently streaming on Kanopy. These aren’t your typical history homework assignments. These are films that surprise, inspire, and occasionally blow your mi...nd wide open. Whether you’re into true crime, lost media, pop-punk nostalgia, or The Shining fan theories gone off the rails, this episode is packed with rabbit holes worth falling into. So, settle in and let these stories surprise you, move you, and maybe even change how you see the world.
