Monica Padman van de Amerikaanse podcast Armchair Expert vraagt zich af waarom Elizabeth Laime en Andy Rosen in 2016 van de ene op de andere dag stopten met Nobody’s Listening, Right?, Monica’s lievelingspodcast. De reden hiervoor blijkt behoorlijk sinister en heeft te maken met de dood van een fan van Elizabeth en Andy’s show. Beth’s Dead begint als een incrowd-podcastersfeestje, maar ontwikkelt zich tot een fascinerend en griezelig verhaal over catfishing en parasociale relaties. Met uiteindelijk de grote vraag: wie zijn de ‘fans’ Beth, Natasha, Anders en Frank werkelijk? Werd je meegesleept door Wie is Marlotte? maar miste je in die podcast diepgang, dan heb je aan Beth’s Dead sowieso een betere luisterervaring.
Beth’s Dead is a new kind of true crime podcast. Brought to you by Armchair Expert’s Monica Padman, and Nobody’s Listening, Right? this limited mystery series explores what happens when parasocial relationships go terribly wrong.
As Monica interviews her favorite podcasters, Elizabeth Laime and Andy Rosen, about why they shut down their mini podcasting empire years ago, a story unfolds that is so shocking and creepy, it’s hard to believe. That’s when Monica takes on the role of a real-life Nancy Drew, setting out to get answers and to unravel a mystery they thought was long behind them.
