There’s a lot of talk about ratings (as usual), programming (as usual) and serial killers (VERY UNUSUAL).
There’s been a lot of commentary in response to the Leaving Neverland documentary saying friends and family of Michael Jackson’s would have known if he was a peadophile. Your view might change when we speak to Rob’s co-host of his other podcast Monsters Who Murder. Amanda Howard reveals how the late King Of Pop shares personality traits with cold blooded killers if the allegations are to be believed.
Plus former child star Sarah Monahan brings her unique perspective to the impact on the two people who came forward in the documentary. We really hope you stay to the end to hear this very different conversation on a topic that has dominated headlines this week.
Each week the TV Blackbox team take you behind the scenes, wade through the PR spin and launch into the reality that is the Australian television business.
