PSA: Murder Among the Mormons - Seeking Your Reactions to Mark Hofmann Documentary

Hey Mormon Stories Listeners!

I am planning some super-cool interviews for the newly released "Murder Among the Mormons" documentary (released today on Netflix). A few SUPER important requests for you all:

Please watch it ASAP! It's fantastic!
Please share it with all your believing Mormon family members and friends. If they are concerned about the content, consider letting them know that:
1. Richard Turley (former assistant LDS Church historian and head of LDS Church Public Affairs) participates in the documentary, and
2. The documentary was carefully designed by both Jared and Tyler to be fair/balanced. In my opinion, the doc is TOTALLY TBM worthy, so please watch it AND tell everyone about it!

I am planning several super cool interviews, including an interview with Directors - Jared Hess and Tyler Measom. So stay tuned for that!

Here's where I need your help. I would REALLY love it if you would share with me: a) your reactions to the doc, and b) any questions you have for Jared and Tyler. This will help me make the most of time with them (which I see as precious). It will also stand as a cool record of progressive and post-Mormon reactions to the film.

Please post your reactions here!

If you want to watch additional coverage of the Mark Hofmann bombings on Mormon Stories Podcast, you can check out the following episodes:

An interview with Allen D. Roberts and Curt Bench about Mark Hofmann.
An interview with Brent Metcalfe - personal friend of Mark Hofmann.
An interview with Sandra Tanner - whose husband Jerald determined that Mark Hofmann was a fraud before any of the LDS Church leaders.

Thank you in advance for your support! And a HUGE thanks to Jared and Tyler for making a documentary that we ALL can be proud of as Mormons/Ex-Mormons. More soon!
