For Melissa Moore, 1995 was a nightmare. That’s the year the teenager learned her father, Keith Hunter Jesperson, was a serial killer. It’s also the year Melissa Moore’s doubt spiral began: When you look like your father, and you share his intelligence and charisma, how do you know you’re not a psychopath, too? Happy Face is the story of Keith Hunter Jesperson, his brutal crimes, and the cat and ... more

  • Decent

    It’s a good story but the constant ads make it hard to follow or to want to follow such short episodes.

  • S2 and Diane's brother

    I was really enjoying s2 (except for the constant, endless ads!), until the host brought in Diane Downs's brother to chime in with his take on everything. The man is deluded and defensive, and it's okay to acknowledge that he has convinced himself that his clearly-guilty sister is a poor victim of a frame-up. But suddenly the podcast is devoting time to his comically insane takes and delusional rationalizations for her behavior. It's like asking a flat earther about their opinion on astronomy. ... more

  • Melissa is the epitome of strength and endurance….Don is insufferable and stuck in the past.

    Don saying his mother called him on the cellphone. Hammering Melissa with what she needs to do to heal and move passed all of this and blah blah blah. How he never thinks about Keith, meanwhile he is literally stuck in the passed(which I get, it’s traumatic) but he has never even began to heal, clearly needs help, needs therapy and needs healing.

    Has to be right about everything and “see I told you so” and “I was right” and then to interrupt Melissa in her grief to tell her she’s grieving wron... more

  • Good podcast awful ads

    It is a wonderful made podcast. Sadly sooooo many ads. And always the same ads. I listened so many Jonas Brothers ads that I will make sure that I will NEVER listen to their podcast. It s almost like PTSD

  • Great podcast about true love

    Blood relations do not define who a person is. I was adopted and looked for my biological mother for a health history background. Although we were related by blood, the mother/daughter connection for me was with my adoptive mother; my mom.

Frequently Asked Questions About Happy Face

What is Happy Face about and what kind of topics does it cover?

A first-person true-crime investigation follows Melissa Moore as she examines her father's serial murders and the lasting impact of discovering that he was a killer.

The format is serialized and personal, with Moore guiding the narrative and conversations with people connected to the cases. Rather than focusing only on the criminal investigation, it gives space to the experiences of relatives and others affected by violence. The result is a fit for listeners interested in investigative storytelling and the human consequences of crime, including questions of identity, tr... more
