    Introducing HBO Docs Club

    HBO presents HBO Docs club, a podcast that pulls back the curtain on a wide variety of titles from the HBO Documentary Films unit. We wanted to give you access to the first episode, where hosts Brittany Luse (For Colored Nerds) and Ronald Young, Jr. (Solvable) discuss 'Atlanta's Missing and Murdered,' a 2020 five-part docu-series that revisits the disappearances and murders of over 30 Black children and young adults in Atlanta between 1979-1981. Brittany and Ronald interview director Sam Pollard about his filmmaking philosophy, and getting people to open up about traumatic experiences and the impact of the film after its release. They also speak with author and professor Tayari Jones about growing up as a child in Atlanta during the time of these murders, and the way those dark events linger in the lives of those who were affected.

Good Companion to the HBO Series

Enjoyed this m podcast each week after watching the episodes on HBO. However, I thought it would have been interesting to hear the background on how “Bonnie” was found or if she came forward. Seemed like that should have been covered on the podcast.

Snoozer

If you want to go around the room and give yourself a Pat on the back ( when you really didn’t contribute to solving the crime) this is an inner circle of tertiary players at best .

Killer’s History

I really enjoyed the episodes on HBO and then listening to the podcast. (The book kept me up at night.) One thing I think the podcast could have done more with is the psychology of a killer being made and not necessarily born. To hear his nephew’s account of what D’Angelo saw as a young man is compelling. HBO currently has a documentary about Dissociative Identity Disorder (Crazy, Not Insane) that has created a more complete picture about killers’ childhoods and the ways abuse can manifest. The podcast Man in the Window by Wondery really gets into it and almost answers “Why?” Keep going I’ll be Gone in the Dark! There’s more there!!
