You Must Remember This is a storytelling podcast exploring the secret and/or forgotten histories of Hollywood’s first century. It’s the brainchild and passion project of Karina Longworth (founder of Cinematical.com, former film critic for LA Weekly), who writes, narrates, records and edits each episode. It is a heavily-researched work of creative nonfiction: navigating through conflicting reports, mythology, and institutionalized spin, Karina tries to sort out what really happened behind the films, stars and scandals of the 20th century.
Always fun and interesting

When I first found this podcast, there was so much material that I jumped around to various topics that interested me, but now I just select a season and let it roll. Whatever subject Karina discusses is thoughtfully and intricately played against the culture of the times and Hollywood.
Outstanding!

Not just the same old “Hollywood mythology”. Love the depth personal and societal perspectives , which makes her research cross into historical and cultural territory that feels fresh, relevant and critical for us to look at if we are not to repeat the patterns that have had tragic repercussions for our country and for the world. Thank you for dedication to presenting quality content. Your passion is palpable. I’m riveted. The Manson series was difficult to stay with, but an important story to tell.
10 stars!!!

People seem to complain about karina's vocal fry (normal--she's not a broadcaster or radio personality, folks!), her imitations (I love 'em, particularly the one of Grace Kelly) and her pronunciations (Im pretty sure that this is a choice, not an error). So what do I care about? Thesis quality, exhaustively researched and exquisitely written and told stories about one of the most fascinating places in the 20th century populated with some of the most interesting people in the world. These are stories that make me, an amateur classic film buff, see my favorite movies in a new way. I discover new-to-me artists like jean seberg and rediscover old ones like Jane Fonda. Karina Longworth, I hope you do this show for 30 years!!
