He told the story years ago on Howard Stern. Writers and researchers who have studied the Manson case say that Mike's story is bull.

[tpesky]

Considering all that Mike has accomplished in his career...I can't get over the fact an entire chapter was devoted to the Manson thing.

Told it on the Stern show, October 1992.

Understanding that publishers need to promote, sell, and publicize their books through the media by often pulling the more sensational teasers out of them to get the coverage, but when I saw this one breaking like it was a new revelation, it didn't sound right. Maybe to the magazines and tabloids it's new, but the way they had people from the DA's office or investigators or whatever all that was commenting on the case like it was newly turned info, it had been out for at least 24 years since that Stern interview.

The funny part is, it's the only aspect of the book the media is talking about!

Yep.  There's that TV show "Aquarius," so that's where the click-bait set is focused.  Maybe it will sell a few Denny cd's?

That would be the silver lining to this particular cloud.

Listening to the end of it now.  Thanks for posting the link. 

Howard can certainly make you laugh. 

Last spring a family from Montreal has been chasing down (Jane Doe #59) whether this is Manson "family" (particular style of gruesome manner of homicide) murder.
There are many unsolved murders from that era.  I am not so quick to dismiss all these unsolved murders.  Roman Polanski/Sharon Tate was high profile and got instant global because of Polanski's film world status, and continuous media play because they were "somebody." 

Many of these similarly-situated (whether in LA or not) victim's murders seem to have similar characteristics.  What I did not know (because I was only paying attention to BB-related stuff) is that those people were drug dealing, moved around, and perhaps using this "cult" mentality in their drug business. I am learning along with many others about this.

And Sharon Tate's sister has been involved. (I had no idea she was still looking for answers.)

Only your family gives a damn if your murder is solved, decades after everyone else has forgotten.  Maybe more than the investigators. There is a poor murder solve rate.

The LAPD has been given federal grants to help solve cases going back to 2011. I am keeping an open mind, especially since a family is till coming forward for answers.

Since we don't have a "like" feature, here goes-

[Rick5150]

Hahaha. Mike tells Howard his wife Jacqueline is half black and half Italian and Howard says, "Do you know what that means? She steals razors to shave her mustache." I was really hoping they would get to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame speech...

As someone of mixed race, I really don't find that funny.

[Debbie KL]

It's not.  Maybe Iain Lee can get a job with that show.  Snarky is apparently the new "funny?"  But then one must whine and scream when people call out the crap and stupidity.  Such a charming combination of qualities.

They did, at least, talk about the R&RHOF speech...“…I was firing on all those egomaniacs in that room…”  No wonder it worked so well.  It came from a man of such deep humility.

[♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇]

I was firing on all those egomaniacs in that room…

So he fired on himself too? Wow...I heard one can go blind from that.

Understanding that publishers need to promote, sell, and publicize their books through the media by often pulling the more sensational teasers out of them to get the coverage....

To get the thread back on topic....This!

Brian's book in October will no doubt have some promotion to. I expect some Landy/ Love and Mercy movie/ The REAL story hype for the same purpose. To sell books.

Who is to say that Mike isn't repeating exactly what Dennis told him about his experience with Manson.
