Recognizing Early Red Flags

In Part 2 with Margot Lane and Jezebel Sweet, we dive more into the spectacle of Corey’s Angels and the documentary Corey Feldman Vs. the World and what happens after you walk away from someone else’s narrative and start writing your own. They talk about the emotional and professional fallout of leaving Corey Feldman’s orbit, how it felt to watch their time in the band reframed on screen, and the mix of validation, frustration, and grief that comes with seeing the “behind the music” story shown on film.

Margot and Jezebel also share how they’re building their careers now—setting new boundaries in the entertainment industry, unpacking what they once normalized as “how it is,” and reconnecting with their own creativity, friendships, and instincts outside of the Corey’s Angels mythology.

You can watch Corey Feldman Vs. The World on Apple TV, YouTube, and Google Play (this is homework for next week’s guest too!). Also follow Margot Lane at margotlane.com and on Facebook and Instagram @musicismargot. Follow Jezebel Sweet at JezebelSweet.com, on Instagram & YouTube @JezebelSweet, and her doc commentary on YouTube.com/@JezebelSweetSpeaks.

Trigger warning: This episode contains frank discussion of emotional manipulation and controlling dynamics, objectification of women, abuse, drug use, crossing boundaries of sexual consent, and mental health and trauma processing.
