Quite a fascinating series, a tribute to a remarkable
woman who had a somewhat tumultuous but in its own way highly
successful career. Much about her has been an enigma
until now, but this goes a long way toward answering the questions.

I've listened to the whole series as well, and have found it a riveting look behind-the-scenes at the inner workings of Hollywood. Platt comes across as a very strong and talented woman, too often overshadowed. Good to see her getting her due with such an interesting podcast series. I'm looking forward to listening to the tenth and final episode tonight.
