The Last Days of August: Episode Seven
Jon Ronson, the creator of Audible Original The Butterfly Effect, delves into the pornography industry again as he unravels the never-before-told story of what caused a beloved 23-year-old actress’s untimely death.
In December 2017, famed adult film star August Ames died by suicide in a park in the Conejo Valley. Her death came just a day after she’d been the victim of a social media pile-on by fellow porn professionals—punishment for her tweeting out something deemed homophobic.
A month later, August’s husband and pornography producer Kevin Moore connected with journalist Jon Ronson to tell the story of how cyberbullying via Twitter killed his wife. Neither of them could predict the rumors and secrets that Ronson would soon hear, revelations that hinted at a very different story—something mysterious and unexpected and terrible. -

Customer Reviews
Respectful
Jon Robson has Integrity as a journalist. A trusted voice, he is able to tell this story in a way that is unsensationalised, sensitive and still skeptical
Interesting story and perspective but the voices (argh)
It is a very tragic story and sad to listen to. My problem is that just about everyone has the most annoying voice- sorry Jon - I get that’s just your voice but not made for podcasts. The American accents and snorting and crying is just too annoying.
It’s an interesting dip into a community who are so self centred that it takes away from the tragedy of what happened. No one has sufficient self awareness. So sad for all.
Great series
Really enjoyed both seasons, particularly The Butterfly Effect. I learned and reflected on a lot.
