PodcastOne Set as Executive Producer for IP Derivatives
Bad Bad Thing Season One Has Tallied 2 Million Downloads to Date
LOS ANGELES, CA – 
Years later, the case against Jill Blackstone ended with a “no contest” plea deal, leaving questions unanswered, and the mystery of what really happened, unsolved. Now, an anonymous source has come forward to release evidence never before made public, so that the real story of what happened to Wendy Blackstone, and the secrets being kept by the Blackstone family, can finally be revealed.
“Bad Bad Thing: The Blackstone Sisters is the headline gripping story of a Hollywood television producer accused of an almost unfathomable crime. A woman who once produced the biggest talk show headlines, suddenly becomes the headline. Barbara has once again outdone herself, bringing to life this true-crime podcast,” said Kit Gray, President and co-founder of PodcastOne.
Schroeder, a journalist and documentarian, wrote and directed the Netflix true crime series, “Evil Genius: The True Story of America’s Most Diabolical Bank Heist,” about an unsolved FBI case in Erie, PA. She is the recipient of multiple Emmy awards for investigative journalism. Her previous podcast with PodcastOne, Bad Bad Thing, debuted in 2021 to rave reviews and numerous “Best of” lists for the year. Since its debut, season one of Bad Bad Thing has garnered two million downloads and tells the true story of a loving wife, Jennair Gerardot, who spirals into darkness when she suspects that her husband of 24 years, Mark, is having an affair as she secretly records his infidelity with his dynamic, younger, and beautiful boss.
As with Bad Bad Thing’s original season, PodcastOne is attached to Executive Produce IP derivatives of the anticipated second season.
PodcastOne’s existing True Crime network of programming, which includes A&E’s Cold Case Files, I Survived, Court Junkie, Prosecutors, Trust Me, True Crime All the Time Unsolved, Our Fake History, Civil and Crime Salad collectively receives over seven million monthly downloads.
