Sarah tells Mike how a superhero’s genesis was a supervillain’s origin story all along. In our new deep dive, we tackle Nancy Grace’s “Objection!” and debate how defendants should behave at trial, why prosecutors seem to make good daytime TV stars and whether Nancy really came to New York City with a curling iron and a dream.

0:18.5 | Welcome to You're Wrong About the True Crime Podcast that tries to focus on the true part |
0:24.7 | more than the crime part. |
0:26.7 | Oh, how's that? I would say that we're a true crime podcast focused on the impossibility of |
0:32.6 | ever knowing the truth about anything. And then that determines how we look at the crime part. |
0:38.3 | But we each have our own approach to this. Well, I was trying to say something that sounded |

1:35.6 | to try and facilitate empathy for Nancy Grace. And I feel like my approach to whatever subject we |
1:42.6 | have is dictated by like the kind of run they've had to this point. And like Nancy Grace has been |
1:48.4 | in charge of her own narrative in a way that very few women are because she has been on TV for |
1:53.6 | hours every week. Yeah. For years she has helped define what her crime media is in this country. |
2:00.7 | And her view of things has found a lot of purchase in American media. She has not been unheard or |
