Why people recommend it

If I Did It by O. J. Simpson is a controversial ghostwritten memoir that presents a hypothetical account of how the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman might have been committed. The book generated immense public outrage and legal battles regarding the exploitation of notoriety and the distribution of profits to the victims' families. The book was referenced across several prominent podcasts. On The Rubin Report on October 20, 2026, Dave Rubin brought up the account while comparing its details to a suspect's hypothetical disposal of a weapon. Joe Rogan mentioned owning a signed copy of the book on The Joe Rogan Experience on June 27, 2024, and later brought it up again on September 4, 2025, comparing its notoriety to Peter Thiel's lecture series. On This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von on August 20, 2025, Theo Von referenced the book during a conversation about high-profile criminals. Josh Dubin mentioned on The Joe Rogan Experience in March 2025 that someone had given him a copy before his wife threw it out. On The Megyn Kelly Show, Viva Frei discussed the intense controversy surrounding the publication on April 11, 2024, while Megyn Kelly dedicated an episode on August 22, 2022, to the internal debates at HarperCollins and Fox News when the book was first acquired for publication.
