Shattering the System
by iHeartPodcasts
This is Shattering The System, a podcast hosted by pioneering audio journalist Sonari Glinton. Drawing from his decades covering politics and the economy, Sonari exposes the systems making it possible for criminals of all kinds to get away with the unthinkable. Though it’s a podcast about crime, this is more than just another true crime podcast. Using expert interviews, evidence, and innovative sound, Sonari unveils the ugly truths baked into our society. This season, he tells the story of what happens in gay Hollywood when gay black men turn up dead. He’ll delve deep into the strange, twisted world of convicted criminal Ed Buck. It’s a case with implications reaching far beyond Hollywood. This is a story not to be missed. Join Sonari as he takes a hard look at what happens when the system isn’t just broken, but shattered.
