LAist Studios Podcast Features Exclusive Interview With Nury Martinez, Examines LA City Council Tape Scandal
By Rebecca Katz
Published Sep 20, 2023 5:00 AM
In an exclusive interview with LAist Studios, former Los Angeles City Council president Nury Martinez speaks publicly for the first time since she resigned nearly a year ago over a leaked audio recording that captured her making racist and disparaging remarks.
“I've thought about that particular day, God, a thousand times, if not more,” Martinez says in an interview with Antonia Cereijido, host of LAist Studios’ Imperfect Paradise. The new season of the award-winning podcast, “Nury and the Secret Tapes," begins on Wednesday, Sept. 27, and the trailer is available now.
Martinez spoke to Cereijido in a wide-ranging interview for a four-part story that looks back at the scandal and examines the political context leading up to the leaked audio tapes. She also addresses the specific language that she used about former L.A. city council member Mike Bonin’s son and her hurtful comments directed at the Black and Oaxacan communities.

The return of Nury Martinez. Needless to say response to this apology tour has been pretty negative. Access journalism!
