The Karen & Ellen Letters

Studio BOTH/AND

In 2005, I received a stack of found, hand-written letters between two (stupid?) young women and their (long-suffering?) landlord. That gift would send me on a fifteen-year search for the truth. It was a comedic investigation that demanded some pretty complex interrogation: Who owns a story? How honest is our nostalgia? What does it mean to be a difficult woman? How do we engage in sexism and patr... more

  • Gets incoherent and off the rails

    This was recommended in the Normal Gossip subreddit. The storytelling style became very remarkably difficult to follow in the second season. This could’ve been a well-crafted, one season’s worth of amusing episodes in more capable hands but instead I really felt strung along by the tangents, repetition and lack of narrative offered by the podcast in the second season.

Josh said he stupidly or cruelly published Karen's emails but why? Was there backlash? What about Ellen? Which parts did Mark fabricate? I also noticed the inconsistent handwriting. Was Mark supplementing? Th... more
