James and Billy once again spend time with The Voice of Jeffrey MacDonald, offering analysis and commentary throughout. Topics covered by Jeff:

For today's podcast, we welcome one of our journalistic heroes: Gene Weingarten. Weingarten is an acclaimed journalist and humorist, best known for his long tenure at The Washington Post. He is the author of several books and is also the only two-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Feature Writing.​

In 2012, Weingarten wrote a stunning feature article about Jeffrey MacDonald's evidentiary hearing in Wilmington, North Carolina. Later, in 2014, he eulogized Joe McGinniss in the Washington Post, declaring Fatal Vision to be "one of the best nonfiction books ever written."

You can check out more of Weingarten's work on his substack, The Gene Pool. We encourage you to do so.

In this conversation, Weingarten shares his experience with the MacDonald Case, as well as his thoughts on Fatal Vision's enduring greatness, Janet Malcolm, Errol Morris, journalism, false equivalencies, and much more. We couldn't be more grateful to him.

James and Billy do a dramatic reading of the end of part 1, chapter 9, in which MacDonald, during his April 6 interrogation, continues to offer explanations -- or non-explanations -- of the evidence collected by the CID. After the reading, James shares some interesting finds in all his readings.
