About this episode
A shocking crime. A nation divided. When UnitedHealthcare’s CEO was gunned down in broad daylight, the media called it a senseless crime. But online, a different story emerged—one of rage, reckoning, and a suspected killer named Luigi Mangione turned folk hero.
More than just a true crime tale, LUIGI, hosted by Jesse Weber, explores a cultural tipping point in America. Through expert analysis and accounts, this series unpacks the public’s disillusionment with corporate power, the viral glorification of an alleged killer, and the widening gap between media narratives and public sentiment. We challenge you to decide - is the status quo enough, or is it time for a change in America?
