The Traci Lords episodes want to be tabloid fodder with veneer of respecting a victim

“It’s an okay listen, but then they said “1986 was maybe the last great year of Hollywood” and then I remembered that certain people will be ignored in the narrative. Update: I think I know what’s troubling about this podcast, they’re talking about a very sensitive subject, they’re trying to be fair and do all this research and interviews but it falls flat due to the tone. They try to be sexy and be like this expose, with this annoying banter and double entendres, and it’s about a underage girl who went into porn. And then there’s the arrogance of all of it. Also, guys, umm, glad you mentioned how a lot of these interviewees were very biased and that we should believe Traci Lord, especially her rape and molestation, but you kind of dropped the ball when you say things about how much she was sexually aggressive. Edit: Also, the little bit where they talk about how celebrities want to be porn stars with leaked nude photos and sex tapes? After it was reported how this was done without their consent. And this feels especially uneasy since we are re-examining how the media and society treated these young women. These were not wanna be porn stars, they were people who were taken advantage of and were then laughed at. What was the point of this podcast? Update: Season 2 is better. Don’t know how long this opinion will last but the college lives of rich literary figures are more palpable to listen about. Though I am wondering when Donna Tartt sics the lawyers on them (and I will not blame her). Update: I went to check up on Tartt, and surprised to learn a certain thing about her. This podcast does not mention how racist those books are. Interesting.
Update: Still annoyed by that line “1986 was the last great year in Hollywood.””

“Trying so hard to justify victimizing girls and women. Just gross. The narrators trying to sex it up with jokes only makes it worse.”

“This would be 5 stars if they didn’t have a British man doing the voice for a 15 year old American girl. No idea who thought that would be good for a podcast”
