What has the potential to be an interesting and nuanced dig into the darker side of music history is ruined by schlock editorialising, rampant disinformation for the sake of shock value, and rank misogyny. The framing around Nancy Spungen is gross and exploitative. Bad storytelling, bad historical analysis, bad journalism.
Jake, you outdid yourself on the Quincy Jones episode. I think he was a genius. Just how he navigated his way through during such oppressive times. And his arrangements & music are undeniably stellar. I believe him. Thank you for this gem.
Great Listening!
