First degree murder as liberation?

“The narrator posits that when her marriage failed, “this anti-feminist self-liberated herself from [her desire for a perfect traditional marriage], you might say.”
No I’m pretty sure I’d never say that, never equate murdering two ppl in cold blood with “self-liberation.”
The music cues are bonkers and excessive.
The cultural references are squarely boomer-centric, which is fine in and of itself, but they’re delivered with a lack of awareness that the culture itself (and true crime in particular) is no longer boomer-centric. This case is treated like The Case of the Century, and the center of cultural conversations about murder, and it prob was at one time. But not sure if the current true crime audience is coming to this story from that frame of reference and it would be better served to think about today’s context.”

“I didn’t find anything new in this podcast. It felt like a fairly straight up retelling, presumably capitalising on the new TV show? Well narrated and produced, but flat.”

“OMG! I tried to ignore ALL the negative reviews and went into it with an open mind. The writing, music, narration, politics and all of it are bad AF!!! I’m sorry but I just can’t....
I’ll have to read about it on Wikipedia!”
