  • Wrong Title

    Should be called stories of musical pedophiles. Is it really cool that 29 year old guy is chasing a 14 year old? That’s so messed up. Now I know these guys are a bunch sickos. Love to see them questioned about it.

  • I feel sorry for these women

    It’s sad that either they’re not self-aware or their in denial about how they were used and exploited by these famous rock stars back in the day.

  • Stories are cool, narration clunky

    Narrator really needs some speech guidance. Trying to copy the npr style of narrating very very badly. Like so bad that the story is hard to follow.
