- Great interviews with people who knew MJ
I enjoyed the JR Taraborrelli interview, so thank you for sharing it.
I have a mixed opinion on his treatment of MJ, but he appeared quite sincere here, especially towards the end where he rightfully places the blame for what MJ had to endure on those who sought to exploit him. It’s easy to criticise Michael who fell victim to these extortions partially due to his poor judgment, but as a society we need to learn to place the blame where it actually belongs - with the perpetrators - even if thei... more

Not bad but Elise laughing at the end of every. Single. Sentence. gets pretty annoying after a while.
Apple Podcasts1DanJack821United Kingdom20 days ago - A bunch of complainers
These have to be the most negative and mean spirited people within the MJ fandom. They have nothing but negative things to say about his biopic. The British guy acts like he alone knows exactly how the film should have been produced and directed. And no one even gets a word in edgewise while he goes on a tirade. Just miserable and you will gain nothing from listening.
Apple Podcasts1OooonaanaaUnited States2 months ago - Discovering this in 2026
I cannot believe that I just discovered this podcast this year! I’ve been a longtime MJ fan and dipped out a few years back after interests shifted. Over the past 2 years, my love for MJ came back. However, it came back with a craving for deeper education and truth.
This is not a podcast that will engage in the fantasy version of MJ that many fans cling to (like I did when I was younger and uneducated). The discussions are real, raw, and needed. There is still the magic woven in, but it’s still... more
