This week, “The Daily” is revisiting some of our favorite episodes of the year and checking in on what has happened since the stories first ran. Today, we talk to our critic about his reckoning with abuse allegations against Michael Jackson and his efforts to abstain from the pop star’s music. Ten months later, he shares why he still has a Shazam feed full of Jackson’s hits — and reflects on what the ubiquity Jackson’s music in public reveals about our society. Guest: Wesley Morris (https://www.nytimes.com/by/wesley-morris?smid=pc-thedaily), a critic at large for The Times and a host of the podcast “Still Processing.” For more information on today’s episode, visit nytimes.com/thedaily (https://www.nytimes.com/thedaily).

Because of Jackson’s fierce fan base (https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/04/arts/music/michael-jackson-leaving-neverland-fans.html?smid=pc-thedaily), the show’s producers are confident tickets will sell (https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/10/theater/michael-jackson-musical-broadway.html?searchResultPosition=3?smid=pc-thedaily).
