Show notes: https://michaelandthetruthpodcast.blogspot.com/2023/12/show-notes-episode-29-thriller-40.html
Description: This episode will focus on karma, explanations and reality. It looks like certain people that did Michael wrong are getting their karma. Taj and Prince explain things but needs some clearing up and singer Tank wants to call Michael a "thief" for the sake of proclaiming Michael's copycat Chris Brown as a "great". The comedy writes itself and it is time to examine why such a false allegation is laughable.

Description: This episode is another Random Thoughts episode about the events that happened between May 1st, 2020 to June 1st, 2020.

Quincy Jones lost an appeal with the Michael Jackson Estate and I see this as karma. I will explain why. Tom Mesereau wants the fans to do a project to honor Michael. Taj continues to do live streams on Youtube. I will discussed the one on Michael's favorite songs and the one he did with his cousins Siggy and Toyia. The future of the Michael Jackson fan community is always on my mind and I want to call out the stalking in the community. Bigi graduates from high school and the mainstream media ignores it. 2020 seems to be the year of not only the pandemic of Covid 19 but the year of the revolt. I will explain why Michael should never be associated with the Black Lives Matter movement and their true reason for existence. His music speaks more to the protests than ever before. Michael's niece gets attacked and the media ignores it.

Description: This episode is about the books that came out after Michael’s passing on 06/25/2009 that I will not review on this podcast and why. Part of being of fan of Michael is that fans would want to know everything about him. Books are a start but not every book is worth the money. I want to do a episode on this so that people who are discovering Michael do not buy these books. There are fans who purchased the books and reviewed them so that no other fan should have to read the books and on this post, I will post the links/images to those reviews so you all can read them. My views of the books are based on facts and information not emotions so if you have an issue with it, that is not my issue. Michael’s life should be told accurately, factually and truthfully. He was lied most of his life so that people can make a living off of his lies. This podcast will make sure that no fan supports these books. I will also discuss the books reportedly in the works that will be released next year and state to the viewer what I think about it. I will also discuss the rating system that I have in place for the books that I will review on this podcast. Please read the show notes along with listening to the podcast. Use the show notes as a guide to what I will state in the podcast so you have an idea of what I am talking about. Enjoy.
