Michael Jackson - Fact or Fiction
A new Michael Jackson biopic raises a familiar question… do audiences actually want the truth, or just a great show? This week, Richard Crouse and Sarah Hanlon unpack the new film Michael and the growing trend of biopics that trade accuracy for spectacle. When a story as complex as Michael Jackson’s gets streamlined into a crowd-pleasing concert experience, what gets lost… and does it even matter? They explore the art vs. artist debate, the power of nostalgia, and why some cultural icons remain untouchable—no matter how complicated their legacy becomes. It’s a conversation about storytelling, memory, and the uncomfortable space where fact and entertainment collide.
