Content Warning: This interview discusses the allegations that Michael Jackson abused children. If you or someone you’re listening with might be sensitive to that, we wanted to give you a heads up.
The podcast Think Twice examines one of the toughest subjects in American pop culture: Michael Jackson.
Not just his biography or his art, but what he means. The greatest pop music icon ever. An avatar of the complexity of race in America. And of course, an accused child molester.
How do we deal with all these things? How should we? What do we remember? What have we forgotten? Think Twice asks these questions.
The show is hosted by Leon Neyfakh and Jay Smooth.
Leon Neyfakh is a journalist, radio host and writer. He’s also a podcaster. He was the creator and original host of Slate’s huge hit Slow Burn.
Jay Smooth is a DJ and writer. He founded the longest running hip-hop radio show in New York – Underground Railroad on WBAI. He is also a pioneering video blogger, with incredible insight into race and culture.
Leon and Jay join us to talk about Think Twice and the complicated legacy of Michael Jackson. After conducting dozens of interviews and spending months collecting research, did creating Think Twice change the way Leon and Jay feel about Michael Jackson? We get into it.
