Summary

Leaving Neverland is a two-part documentary on HBO exploring the separate but parallel experiences of two young boys, James Safechuck, at age 10, and Wade Robson, at age 7, both of whom were befriended by Michael Jackson. Through gut-wrenching interviews with Safechuck, now 40, and Robson, now 36, as well as their mothers, wives and siblings, the film crafts a portrait of sustained abuse, exploring the complicated feelings that led both men to confront their experiences after both had a young son of his own. Director Dan Reed explains how the project was developed, the grooming of the victims, and how Safechuck and Robson have coped emotionally since it has aired. 


Steve Stauff reviews this week’s episode of Sister Wives on TLC detailing the wedding of Aspyn and Mitch. 


Producer David Eitel reviews Outdaughtered, a television series on TLC starring Adam and Danielle Busby, the parents of the only all-girl quintuplets in the U.S. They also have a 8-year-old daughter, Blayke.

Welcome back to another episode of Reality Life with Kate Casey.

0:21.2

I hope that you're having a great week.

0:23.5

If you're looking for something new to watch this week, I recommend the inventor on HBO.

0:29.2

Academy Award winner Alex Gipney.

0:31.4

He did Enron, the smartest guys in the room, and the Emmy-winning Going Clear Scientology and the

0:38.0

Prison of Belief. He directs a documentary investigating the rise and fall of Theranos,

the one-time multi-billion dollar healthcare company founded by Elizabeth Holmes.

In 2004, Elizabeth Holmes dropped out of Stanford to start a company that was going to

revolutionize healthcare. In 2014, Theranos was valued at $9 billion, making Holmes,

who was touted as the next-team jobs, the youngest self-made female billionaire in the world.

1:11.1

And two years later, Theranos was cited as a massive fraud by the SEC and its value was less than zero.

1:18.5

It's basically the Bernard Maida of Silicon Valley, except way more money.

1:25.2

Elizabeth Holmes is a fascinating figure. She was so obsessed with Steve Jobs

1:30.6

that she would wear outfits to look like him, the black turtle neck, the black pants,

1:34.7

and even changed her voice to sound more authoritative. But she ends up sounding like a Canadian James

1:41.0

Earl Jones. That commitment to a voice change I will never understand. In fact, if you ever

1:47.2

watch some of Nicholas Cage's first few movies, he has a totally different voice too.

1:53.1

So definitely check that out. This week's episode I'm really excited about. I had a chance to

interview the director Dan Reed of Levy Neverland on HBO. Of course, I have three segments in this
