Nice retrospective. Thank you Thomas.
Celine and Rene
Nov 8
This episode about the relationship between a young girl and her manager triple her age was a whitewash. Celine was groomed by Rene. The outcome was that she fell in love with the only man in her teenage and adult life. The podcast did not explore her limited social contact nor the somewhat creepy relationship between Céline and Rene. Other episodes show journalistic integrity. This one misses the mark.
Love, love, love

I do feel badly for how it all turned out, especially if SBF is on the Autism spectrum…maybe he wasn’t fully aware of his actions…nevertheless, great journalism!
