The Last Days of August is a podcast. It contains seven episodes that are approximately 30 minutes each.[1]
Ronson and Misitzis make the argument that her last scene, which she shot with Markus Dupree six weeks before her suicide and was never publicly released, was the real trigger for her suicide with perhaps "the icing on the cake" being the bullying she received on Twitter.[2]
Ronson and Misitzis accessed both the scene, and text messages Ames sent to a friend about it.[2]
On January 4, 2019, the Twitter account of Ames, which Moore now runs, posted screenshots of the text messages and two photos of bruises on her body.[3]
In the podcast's last episode, Misitzis says that the footage shows Dupree forcefully repositioning a visibly startled Ames on more than one occasion and jerking her around by a pink thing of hers he stretched around her head before shoving it in her mouth at one point.[2]
Misitzis described the appearance of Ames as resigned, emotional, hollow, and on the verge of tears in her post-scene interview, meant to establish consent for legal purposes, in which she "flatly" and "quietly" says "Yes" when asked if she was "treated OK" by a crew member.[2]
