Customer Reviews
Excellent
One of my all time favorite podcasts. I have come back to listen many times. It is well researched and perfectly presented.
Ugh
She takes a deep dive and looks at so many different players and angles which is interesting. It’s not her voice that is unpleasant, unless she’s speaking for a Manson Girl, who she decided all speak with nasal annoying voices. It’s her odd pronunciation (“narwritted vs narrated), her odd phrases (“acid gobblers” I believe the term is drop acid not gobble it) and the mispronunciation of just about every major players name. This is one of the most famous cases, and it’s 50 years old. How do you not know how to pronounce the names when you’re doing a podcast? Among the repeated mispronounced names are Jay Sebring, Leno LaBianca, Roman Polanski, Wojciech Frykowski, and my personal favorite, the three different ways she came up with to say Leslie Van Houten. Also spent a good 40 minutes discussing Polanski’s later rape case and shared her personal opinions on what she thought. Regarding the Manson murders, Polanski was the victim, losing both his wife and his child (similarly, his own pregnant mother was killed in Auschwitz). Perhaps not the greatest time to be speaking about his future events. It is also possible to feel terribly sorry for the man for his losses, and dislike the actions he took in the future. It felt almost victim blamey to bring both up in the same episode and focus on the later event.
Also, Pacific Ocean Blue is not a “ hauntingly beautiful” album. It’s an album full of great rock music— not what you would expect from a beach boy except adorably, his brothers singing backup.
Well researched and insight!
Worth to listen to fully understand the crimes especially if you were not alive during this time.
