Okay so I finished episode I and all I can say is lower your expectations. It doesn't hook you from the start like Serial or Making a Murderer.
In fact, the main character in the episode, "Jon" is such a douchebag I could barely stand to listen to him for 40 minutes. He's a total redneck hipster. Thick southern accent, but always wants the attention to be on him, wants everyone to know how hard his life is, and how much smarter he is than everyone else. He tries to use big words or drop some uncommon knowledge that he memorized.
I started suspecting right from the start that Jon made up this whole murder story just to get attention. He wanted a reporter from his favorite radio show to come down and see how fascinating of a character he is, and this reporter was playing right into his hands. Thankfully, the reporter by the end of the episode at least FINALLY acknowledges the fact that Jon may be lying, and that he's definitely an attention whore. If not for that one glimmer of hope I don't think I would continue listening.
I was so shocked whenJohn B killed himself and the story wasnt even a murder mystery
Dude spoiler tag that shite
I think John wanted to fuck Tyler.
Lolwut? C'mon, man. There's nothing at all in the story to get you to that conclusion.
It seems like any time these days an adult shows some concern over someone younger than them the conclusion so many people jump to is that it's sexual. That's retarded.
I'm in the middle of episode 4 and I'm finally at a point where i don't hate Jon anymore.
I like the part where they talk to the other heurologist and he conveys Jon's genius with old clocks. That is impressive to me because those clocks are far more complex than the average person realizes.
He's still an annoying attention whore but i respect him more.
also I'm starting to strongly suspect that jon intended for this whole story to happen this way. He didn't call the reporter to solve a murder, he just wanted a reporter to do a story about his life, specially the end of it. So the world would remember and appreciate him.
