Story
In 2017, a routine network television investigation led to a story only whispered about: one of Hollywood’s most powerful producers was a predator, protected by fear, wealth, and a conspiracy of silence. As Farrow drew closer to the truth, shadowy operatives, from high-priced lawyers to elite war-hardened spies, mounted a secret campaign of intimidation, threatening his career, following his every move, and weaponizing an account of abuse in his own family.

The truth
Reviewed: 03-14-24
I enjoyed the persistence, bravery and determination of Mr. Farrow, his integrity throughout and seeing not just his work for truth and transparency to fruition, but also his personal journey.
Being in my early fifties, I’ve seen and been part to many transitions in power and victim roles and the silence and protection given to the abusers.
Farrow is a light in the darkness of both journalism,integrity and bravery, something we desperately need more of right now, better even, in any period of our history.
Thank you Mr. Farrow

A story of all times for all times.

No matter your beliefs, the cautionary tales, the morals, the mistakes, the integrity of it all stands strong and beautifully told through not just the magnificent stories themselves but through the magnificent storytelling as well. The journey and adventure is well worth the time.

Story
The Lucifer Priciple is a revolutionary work that explores the intricate relationships among genetics, human behavior, and culture to put forth the thesis that "evil" is a by-product of nature's strategies for creation and that it is woven into our most basic biological fabric. Though this argument is not a new one - it has been brought forth by such great historical figures as St. Paul, Thomas Hobbes, and Raymond Dart - Howard Bloom here takes fresh data from a variety of sources and shapes it into a lens through which listeners can reinterpret the human experience.

Brilliantly and shamelessly told hard truths.

This masterpiece is as fascinating as it is bold. A gloves off approach to controversial facts that makes you question, and simplifies the answers. A roller coaster through history that exposes a treasure trove of surprises, full of aha moments.
