Reviews
The hosts present themselves as unbiased but haven’t done enough homework to credibly speak on these cases. If you’re looking for a podcast that cites primary sources and is backed by years of research, check out The Michael Jackson Case for Innocence. Each episode has a list of source material,...Read full review »

I have never written a podcast review in my life. However, I was truly moved by the quality of this particular show. The professionalism, wide variety of primary source, interviews audio, and other media was astounding. It was also very fair. It gives a balanced idea of the entire life and saga...Read full review »

A great podcast that starts with the recent memory of the child abuse allegations. Then it dives into Michael Jackson’s life. All of it. Back to the - for me rather unknown - child, the Jackson 5, the solo career, the superstar. Then on to the controversies, strangeness, and latter years. And...Read full review »

Loses a star for allowing the rocket money scam to advertise on the podcast, otherwise would be 5 stars

The excuses people are willing to make just to listen to some cheesy music. Get your head out of the sand. Listen to the mountain of evidence and stop trying to discredit the victims, if you make an objective list for both sides IT IS CLEAR MJ WAS GROSS. Listening to “Thriller” is boring, like...Read full review »

After listening to this podcast it seemed like a very one sided presumption of guilt narrative. I listened to the Case of innocence podcast and the rebuttal of think twice and it was a lot more informative and interesting. I would have preferred a lot more evidence based podcast but it was more a...Read full review »

This podcast is filled with bias and tabloid stories that have consistently been debunked over and over again. It omits facts that have show time and time again that MJ was innocent. Don’t waste your time here.
DeanFLOOT via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/18/24
Like many podcasts, this could easily have been only 8 episodes. For example, they spent 2.5 episodes focused almost entirely on the history of Motown, during which segments MJ is barely referenced. Having said that, you will find some interesting interviews and behind-the-scenes stuff about...Read full review »

The creators have not done due diligence and found out all information about the scenarios they are reporting on. It is obvious they made up their mind already and went with the narrative they wanted. Educate yourselves before creating content like this! A man is innocent until proven guilty, so...Read full review »

There was not a lot of fact checking. Go listen to The Michael Jackson Case for Innocence podcast they also give you the resources they use to fact check

This podcast helped me process my own conflicted feelings about MJ. This was so well done and will stay with me for sure. Excellent, thorough reporting. A must listen.
Garf2020 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/30/24
You don’t need to be a fan of Jackson’s in order to see that the accusations that are levied against him and the people that are surrounding those accusations are at the very least suspect . This is a subject worthy of some investigation and critical thought. Some professional journalism would be...Read full review »

It was fascinating hearing about Michael’s early life and how he curated his career and image to separate himself from his brothers and early career. It was also interesting to hear from the original investigator and the difficulties they encountered when trying to find out the truth.
heykuri via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 03/12/24
Wow what’s the point of even doing a podcast when facts being omitted clear agenda from the get go. I’m shocked how desperate individuals are to make there own story’s as gospel. As soon as Diane diamond was mentioned as source that’s when you know it’s time to turn off a woman who’s so desperate...Read full review »

One sided
Duane Reeder via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/26/24
This podcast, though informative of Michael Jackson’s life from his early days till after his death, is told with the presumption that he was guilty of his accused crimes, and is one sided on that argument. The hosts do not attempt to even explore that Michael Jackson may have been innocent, and...Read full review »
Lil' Kalel via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 02/22/24
This project wants listeners to judge whether MJ was good or bad. Wrong angle for me. Judging others is wrong. It’s definitely not WWJD and [therefore] directly anti-Christian and Anti-God for most religions that recognize the fact that passing judgement on others is a destructive act. It’s...Read full review »

Poor quality. Content is highly racist.
DrSouly via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/11/24
Well done - well edited and well narrated. Also, balanced journalism.
Groupworker via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/24
Everyone has an opinion about Michael Jackson. This was very objective. Was he a monster? Was he maligned? You will be no closer to knowing the truth but you will be more informed. And that’s really how we should approach the world.
Pd Mutti via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/24
It’s always been wonderful and hard to be a Michael Jackson fan. Wonderful to listen to and watch him perform his music, and hard to have to listen to the endless allegations that plagued his adult life. This podcast does an amazing job of telling about his life and eventual downfall into...Read full review »
tommychico via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/25/24
This series was an un-biased, non-sensationalized, journalistically-told chronology of the story of Michael Jackson’s life. It presents commonly known information as well as nuanced new information.
nancymil via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/24/24
hosts claim their agenda is not to convince anyone of his guilt or innocence, but then proceeds to present the most one-sided coverage of the allegations that obviously has an agenda towards convincing the audience of his supposed guilt. Their research method is just confirmation bias with cherry...Read full review »

This podcast is just cheap irresponsible emotional clickbait. Do the work. Get the facts. Stop making money off of cheap weak podcasts.
Me-ness via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/23/24
The more you study the life of Michael Jackson, the more you realize how he was living in conditions that did not allow him to live a childhood. Whether at Gary Indiana which was plagued in Crime and violent gang fights to Hollywood's opportunistic climate, he never lived a peaceful childhood...Read full review »

Really interesting. I thought I had my mind made up about Michael Jackson, but this podcast changed some of my opinions, and helped me reconcile my feelings more with each other.
TonyZozo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/24
This is a very interesting series which is well researched and takes a balanced approach to telling the story of Michael Jackson. Highly recommend.
Maryseoneill via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/24
this doesn’t investigate anything just repeats old info and glosses over major issues til the very end. truly bizarre.
arual99 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/07/24
One of the best I’ve listened to! Well organized and researched and provides comprehensive coverage of MJ’s history.
sharonfitzyG via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/07/24
Really well researched, thoughtful and meticulously balanced and fair. I learned so much about MJ, his family and life in the US. I would recommend this to anyone. Exactly what I’m looking for in a podcast series.
Repwright via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/02/24
Just giving it a thumbs up. Spend the time to listen!
ad60660 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/29/23
Fair, balanced, rigorously detailed and compelling.
WillyN1 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/26/23
I love this podcast, and MJ. I think this podcast is a good example of MJ’s life and mysterious character. But MJ is not a child molester, sure he liked kids, but he wanted to donate to sick kids, and made his own charity for sick kids. I’m conclusion, I loved this podcast
The Real King Of Pop 89 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/22/23
I learned a lot about Michael Jackson’s backstory. I do feel that the reporting is biased though- especially when interviewing the reporter who saw the HBO documentary and suddenly believed all the allegations. I too saw the documentary. I’m still undecided on what to believe about the accusations.
MichellePLevy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/22/23
I’m neither in or out of Jacksons’ camp. Therefore, I thought listening to this podcast may enlighten me. I was disappointed. What’s the point of listening to a podcast l, where the hosts suspect Jackson is guilty of child abuse and therefore information presented is askewed to that...Read full review »

And when and where they don’t, they make sure you know it. The effort to remove the negative influence imposed by implicit bias while still acknowledging that they are susceptible to it is obvious and maybe the best thing about the work they’ve done here. An exceptional perspective on the life...Read full review »

I’m only 3 episodes in, but wanted to add… Enjoying the pace, content, and the voices narrating this story. I could listen to many different topics done by this crew. This Michael Jackson piece needed to be done and it’s about time - appreciate the dive into the various aspects of his life. I...Read full review »

Just average. This podcast could have been 3 episodes.
Alderete de la peña via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/30/23
Very informative and I think it was trying to be unbiased as promised at the start yet you do feel a steering towards guilt which is made clear by the hosts at the end. Pity. The sources they used such as Diane or Martin were poor. Wouldn’t have even discussed their interviews as they were...Read full review »

Very straightforward take on the life and troubles of Michael Jackson.
LeoFlash via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/21/23
I will die on the hill that the only people responsible for the life and death of MJ are his Mother and Father!! They, and they alone sculpted and structured Michael Jackson’s life to become what it was, and for him to become who he was. It is solely their fault, and his demise solely rests on...Read full review »

One of the best podcast series I have ever listened to! So gripping and loved the variation in pace and tone. So so good. I couldn’t stop listening to it, I was literally listening to it in every single spare moment I had!!

A lot of bs from random dudes
Hugo Ventura via Apple Podcasts · Mexico · 10/29/23
I enjoyed most of this podcast. I still feel MJ was greatly misunderstood. For me after listening to this, I feel he related more to kids because they love unconditionally and free of judgement. He had been failed by adults his entire life. Robbed of a childhood and robbed of people who cared for...Read full review »

Super biased though it claims to present “all angles”. Let this poor man rest in peace.

They did a thorough job of researching and telling this story from every side imaginable.
werdknerd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/15/23
Great coverage and in-depth research. Of note is the fact the hosts played a sound bite of someone saying they found the children’s account to police to be untrustworthy due to the kid smirking. I appreciated the hosts challenging this conclusion and stipulating that it’s quite common for abuse...Read full review »
