Way More than We Can Chew: The Karen Read Phenomenon and Make-Up that Doesn’t Melt Under Pressure (or the sun)
Manage episode 432811714 series 3585357
What are we thinking? This week, Kelly and Stacey join the legions of other podcasts that have taken on the Karen Read Murder Trial - but with our own twist. We attempt to unpack how this little case from outside of BAH-ston became a nail-biting, courthouse flash-mobbing national obsession. We also examine Karen Read’s courtroom style, and wonder who paid for all that designer drip. Finally, in the dog days of summer, we have some recos for hot-weather make-up that stays on your face when you need to keep your cool. Like if you are on trial for murder - or just dealing with your kids.
Please note: This episode’s focus is about the ongoing and extensive coverage around the Karen Read murder trial that has riveted the entire nation for months - and our opinions on how this public fascination spread like wildfire - throughout the mainstream media, social media and even activist media. It is not about the legal intricacies of the case - nor is it really about the tragic event. The death of Officer John O’Keefe is heartbreaking - no matter how it may have unfolded. He - and his children - deserve justice. Period.
