Caldera Records has announced the world premiere soundtrack release for the HBO original documentary series The Jinx directed by Andrew Jarecki about real-estate scion and convicted murderer Robert Durst who managed to evade justice for over three decades. The album features selections of the original score from the show’s first season (released in 2015 and subtitled The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst) composed by West Dylan Thordson (Split, Glass, Foxcatcher, Unsolved Mysteries, Joy) and second season (released earlier this year under the title The Jinx: Part Two) composed by Mondo Boys (She Dies Tomorrow, Phoenix Forgotten, Fatman, The Girlfriend Experience, Silk Road). Visit the label’s official website for more information about the soundtrack CD and to listen to audio samples. Both seasons of The Jinx are now available to stream on Max and purchase on VOD and the first season is also available on Blu-ray and DVD.

Debbie is "Emily" in The Shrink Next Door. Once you listen to TSND podcast, the pieces start to click as to why Debbie gave up custody of her son. For those not familiar, Ike Herschkopf was Debbie's shrink.

The soundtrack is 100% confirmed to be coming. I can absolutely confirm that it's happening from a legitimate source based on private information I've read. No idea how long it'll take as we've been waiting for awhile, but one day soon we'll be able to listen to those sweet sweet songs.

just did 1 and rlly enjoyed it, but kinda pissed they dragged it on for another 6 episodes. is it worth the extra time or should i just ruin it and look 4 spoilers?

Started rewatching Law and Order:SVU. Season 17, Eps 1&2 "Devils Dissections" and "Criminal Pathology" are very much inspired by Durst and his crimes.

Any other fictional shows out there that draw on Durst and his crimes for inspiration?

I just finished season 1, and was reading more about All Good Things, the fictionalized movie Jarecki made about Durst's murders. Apparently the film was financed by Weinstein films, but they kept delaying, delaying the release. Jarecki eventually bought back the rights, released it and it made just $500k in the US. Has anyone ever wondered or looked into Weinstein blocking it on purpose based on pressure/$$ from the Durst Coperation? Connections to Doug or Seymour??

I mean, the guy was an idiot if I have to be honest and so was his family. With that amount of money in the family you would think it buys certain things in life that would prevent him from having to get rid of ghe body himself. Why did he live like a poor person? He was being investigated in New York but nothing concrete. Why didnt he go overseas for a while? I mean I am happy that he was caught and all, but I am surprised because a lot of what I read before made it sound like he was smart for getting away with it or something. Come on the guy was arrested for shoplifting. Do you guys think he didn't know that microphone was on? I think he knew it and he had some conscience to feel guilty and thats why he agreed to the interview on the first place. Just needed to get it out of my chest.

I just finished watching Part 1 and am really trying to understand his thought process in that moment of being caught.

Firstly the burps were so crazy, it’s like Bobs body went into panic nausea and he couldn’t help but get the gas out. And the fidgeting too was inevitable even though he tried to play cool, calm and collected on the outside.

I felt as though he was maybe replaying the moment of the two letters in his head again and talks to himself saying “there it is, you’re caught”, and then switches as if he’s talking to Jarecki saying “you’re right, of course, but you can’t imagine” about the cadaver letter being written by himself. Then he says “Arrest him”, as if he’s playing out in his mind getting detained in the third person.

Not sure what he means when he said “idk what’s in the house, oh I want this”. And the rest of the confession is him talking to himself reflecting on his actions.

I’ve seen some people say it seems like he’s talking to different personalities in his mind, but not sure if I believe that interpretation, although plausible.

I also noticed earlier in the documentary his lawyer mentioned his mic was hot when Bob kept repeating “I did not knowingly, purposefully lie”, kinda foreshadowed the end confession cuz the guy is notorious for saying things with a hot mic lol.

It seems awfully convenient for Deborah that Bob had a heart attack and died shortly after his conviction. She inherits his money and we know that Deborah had hired a defense attorney, meaning she was afraid of something Bob might know or say about her involvement in Susan's murder (not to mention what Deborah probably knew/knows about Katthie's disappearance). I know this sounds far fetched and I have no real evidence to support it, but is it possible Deborah had Bob murdered in prison (maybe how Mike slipped into the hospital and injected the Salamanca cousin with something in Breaking Bad)?

So Bob flies from NYC to SFO, then drives down to LA, where he shoots Susan Berman in the head. My question is where did he get the gun? I mean you can't bring a gun on a plane, right? So did he buy a gun in California after he arrived? Doesn't that take time with background checks and everything ? And if they ran a background check wouldn't there be a record of it? I assume he would have used an alias, but there should be some way of tracing it if that's what he did. But that seems a little far fetched to me. I believe Bob killed Susan, but I just can't figure this detail out ... how did he get the gun?

I just finished the first season for the first time and was truly shocked by the ending. But recently, I found out that the "confession" was taken out of context and edited. Apparently, he didn't say those words exactly in order or something.

Anyways, not sure if that means anything because there does seem to be a lot of other evidence against him, but I'm curious.

I feel like my tv is messing up it’s just a revolving graphic of the 9 squares. Is this right or is it my tv?

As I was googling… I could have wrote the note 😭🤣 without thinkinggg was typing “ Beverley” caught myself as my finger hovered over the E 🤦🏽‍♀️

i cannot for the life of me understand why everyone was so charmed by Robert. he did not seem likable to me in any capacity, even more so knowing the business he's been caught up in.. i know it's heavily implied (and downright said) in the doc that people were more influenced by his wealth and the possibility that they may share in it. but even jurors confessing that they liked him in some ways? to me, from the beginning he gave off a spoiled, "i do whatever the hell i want because who is gonna stop me" vibe. i don't trust a word out of Gollum's mouth 😭

I'm listening to podcast chapter 4 and there is mention of morris black being involved with a glasses charitable organization "Jesse Tree" and Black asking Durst to go to the organization with masking tap on his lenses of his glasses. I'm so confused, how could he see? What was the purpose? To get new free glasses because his had tape on them?!

… the man talks to more people in a day than I talk to in a week. If he’s a murderer, he’s the most social murderer to ever murder.

IT'S FINALLY HEREEEEE. i feel like I've waited forever for this and it's only 40 mins long (minus ads).

I just began listening but so far they address Prudence Farrow and hinted about John Lewin's east coast trip.

I’m only up to episode 4, and this man is clearly an incredible liar, he is unfortunately convincing. But I can’t wrap my head around any scenario where Durst isn’t a sociopath and a killer. He is so off. I believe he did kill both women and Black, there are probably others too. I don’t believe the story about “waving to mommy”, a lot of times sociopaths or abusers make up victim stories as a way of explaining to themselves why they are so corrupted. The siblings have said that didn’t happen. Also the Igor story is horrifying. But I’m wondering how this ends up, by the end of the Michael Peterson docuseries I hated Peterson. He was so relentlessly vain all throughout the series, but Durst seems totally removed even from himself. Something about him is so cold, I wouldn’t even call him a narcissist because he doesn’t seem self involved or obsessed. I’ve read he has sympathisers, are these just people who believe his lies or does he have some sort of redemption?

**edit - I’m up to season two and wow. I had listened to a podcast about Durst a few years ago, but had forgotten most of it and went into this series blind. I completely forgot about the bathroom hot mic moment. This guy is just total scum, everyone who helped him evade capture is scum. He manipulates everyone.

**edit edit - I’ve finished and hate Durst and all of his degenerate accomplices. But I’m glad he’s enough of a narcissist to entertain a documentary, eventually telling on himself and showing the world his true colours. The Durst family are deplorable, but Bob is utter worthless crap.

I saw a few people were wondering why Bob might have misspelled Beverly Hills as Beverley, and I think I may know the answer. I'm from Los Angeles near Beverly Hills and moved to New York a few years ago and noticed that there are a bunch of addresses in brooklyn as well as businesses here with the "spelled wrong" name "Beverley"- Beverley Road, Beverley Hills Cleaners just to name a few. Check out google maps in brooklyn to check out all the iterations. I think he was probably spelling it the way he was used to seeing it spelled in New York, and thank god for that!!

Galveston local here… So quite often, boaters and others go missing in the bay… one just before a hurricane recently. They actually found him several days later. How did bab ever think the body would go away?

We sure do!

"BYE BYE"

I could listen to Bob Durst and Stewart Altman reading the TV Guide and taking massive dumps, ALL DAY!

I just finished the 2nd season. Now my question is... Robert and Deborah just got married and then on the very next day he goes LA to kill his friend Susan....or i would say....to eliminate one of the loose end of his entire case. So, is it possible that they both were together in the murder of Susan?

Although Robert was also keeping one eye on all of his wealth, so he didn't want Deborah to be a suspect in this murder?

Correct me if I've got my facts wrong.

Does anybody think that Bawb did the confession on purpose?

I was rewatching Rear Window and the similarities struck me. For example:

• The alibi that “checks out” for the missing wife is that she was dropped off at the station. Literally the story that was given for Kathleen. IIRC even neighbors vouched for seeing her leave, like in the movie.
• The detective in the movie finds a letter that is supposedly written by the wife, confirming that she arrived. Similar to calls supposedly made by Kathleen arriving in the city.
• The murderer, Lars Thorwald, uses a handsaw. Reminiscent of how Durst handles Morris Black’s body.
• Maybe even the killing of the dog? Not sure if the story is confirmed to be true but I remember reading about Durst killing dogs.

Just a few similarities off the top of my head. Are these just high thoughts or is there something here?

Is it just me, or does it seem like Bobby Durst and Doug Oliver probably hid Kathie's body in the tenement building they bought and flipped together. Seems possible she could be in the ground or the concrete of the building somewhere never to be found. Based on the Jinx, Bobby was friends with Doug around this time in 1982, so it seems possible to me.

Did the police ever investigate that building, or does anyone have evidence otherwise?

I am trying to find somewhere all his phone converstations from jail (in some audio format) but can't seem to stumble upon it.

Can someone help me? Specifically I am looking for a "happy happy birthday" conversation, but if someone has everything it would be great!

Thanks a lot!

I apologize in advance if this has been asked many times before.

I don’t understand how or why law enforcement would take until months after the “killed them all” recording was made (and, presumably, shown to them) to apprehend Bob.

Did Jarecki just not want his series to be spoiled by an arrest and so kept the new evidence from the police? Seems like a pretty big risk; wouldn’t he had been liable if Durst had managed to get away?
