Think Twice: Michael Jackson
Audible, all episodes out on Thu
Leon Neyfakh (Slow Burn) is one of the finest storytellers in podcasting and his new offering about Michael Jackson is brilliant and meticulous. Along with Jay Smooth, he examines Jackson’s “raw and unsettled” legacy, attempting to reconcile conflicting emotions about the artist they loved. It starts in 1993, when those around Jackson worried he was too weird to be a pop star, so he presented himself as a god-like figure. Hannah Verdier
