Happy Face
iHeartPodcastsFor 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

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

United States11 days ago - 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
Apple Podcasts3bbmcraeUnited Statesa month ago - 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

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

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.
