Presenting Badlands - Anna Nicole Smith: Methadone, a Murder Plot, and a Fate Like Marilyn’s
Anna Nicole Smith transcended the laws of celebrity. She was a blond sexpot who was famous for being famous, and that was reason enough for pop culture. People around the world recognized her Marilyn Monroe-esque curves filled out Guess jeans, and her squeaky baby speaking voice on The Anna Nicole Show. In the early 2000s, the FBI investigated her regarding an alleged hit she organized to take out her 60-year-old “stepson.” But when Anna Nicole and her grown son Daniel died under eerily sudden — and similar — circumstances, people started to wonder if the feds were barking up the wrong bombshell.

Introducing Nadia Marie: Dear Young Rocker’s Season 4 Story
Dear Young Rockers: This season is going to be different. To introduce a new season-length story, DYR creator Chelsea Ursin interviews Atlanta-based musician and artist Nadia Marie, who will tell her own incredible coming-of-age story, in Season 4, debuting this week.
Like Chelsea, Nadia began her musical career early and came of age in the early 2000s. In 2013, Nadia had her life severely interrupted, and inner world reset, when at 23 she was hit by a car while on her bike. As a result, she suffered a concussion and amnesia that nobody around her was able to help her understand. She was unable to remember much of who she was, or what the people around her had meant to her. The instruments she loved were suddenly foreign, and even her musical taste was different. In this season you’ll get to hear the flashbacks to her early life and some twists and turns along the way, as her newly 23-year-old self navigates the world around her as she reestablishes and creates new connections within music and within herself. Stick around for the rest of the season to hear the full story.

Customer Reviews
Thank you!
Becoming immersed in the exquisitely haunting world of Nadia this season provided a cathartic release from my own life and a nostalgic portal into my youth. I was transported to the past while gleaning gems of truth that synchronistically related to my present.
Nadia’s story pulled me out of a dark place by helping me feel less alone and more comfortable sharing myself vulnerably. I found myself creating more during the period of time I spent listening to Nadia’s episodes. I played the harp more, I sang more, I felt more inspired to express whatever was inside of me freely and unabashedly.
Came for the Rock—stayed for the introspection
I’ve listened to all three seasons and am looking forward to the fourth. I really enjoy the stories. More importantly, it’s really prompted me to reflect on my own life and imagine speaking to my younger, mixed-up self. I have more empathy & understanding for who I was and also who I’ve become.
Neither young nor a rocker, but
I love this podcast. Chelsea's storytelling is entertaining and her advice for her younger self (and us listeners) is insightful. I'm a sucker for a coming-of-age story, and this one is very well told! The later episodes from other rockers have been fun to hear, too. Check out Mia Berrin's and LG's if you want a place to start. But really, go back to the beginning of Chelsea's story even though it's been out for a while now - it's timeless and really enjoyable.
