THE DEATH OF KURT COBAIN: WHO IS TO BLAM...

The Alarmist
About this episode

Who’s to blame for the Death of Kurt Cobain?

This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) keeps things in-house with Producer Clayton Early and Fact Checker Chris Smith to discuss the life, death and legacy of Kurt Cobain. The anti-pop star who forever transformed the music landscape, whose life was cut short at the young age of 27. What were the factors that contributed to his death by suicide. Did the pressure of fame result in a debilitating sense of shame and humiliation? Did chronic pain lead to an unsustainable relationship with drugs and self medication? And why is there so much conspiracy circulating around the circumstances of his death to this day?
