TVC 689.3: Ed welcomes back singer, actress, and philanthropist Ruta Lee (High Rollers, Witness for the Prosecution, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Consider Your Ass Kissed). Ruta will celebrate her ninetieth birthday this coming Friday, May 30 with an evening of song and stories at the Debbie Reynolds Main Stage at the historic El Portal Theatre in North Hollywood. Proceeds for the evening will support The Thalians, the charitable organization to which Ruta has dedicated much of her life over the past sixty years, and which to date has raised has raised more than $50 million for mental health related causes. (NOTE: Though Ruta's performance on May 30 has sold out, you can still make a donation to The Thalians in any amount by going to Thalians.org.) Among other topics this segment, Ruta shares a few memories of co-starring opposite Patrick O'Neal in “A Short Drink from a Certain Fountain,” an episode of The Twilight Zone from 1963 that Ruta considers one of her all-time favorite television performances, not only because of the character she played, but for the opportunity to perform the words of the great Rod Serling. Ruta also tells Ed why her experience filming Sergeants 3 (1962) with Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford, and Joey Bishop—and hanging out with the Rat Pack in general—ranks as her “favorite time in life.”

The death of Marilyn Monroe.The boys begins with a look into her early years. Born Norma Jean Mortenson in 1926, Marilyn's childhood was far from easy, with her mother suffering a mental breakdown when she was just eight years old, leaving her to spend much of her youth in foster care. The boys joke about how “Norma Jean” doesn't quite have the same star power as “Marilyn Monroe,” but they quickly move on to discuss her rise to fame.At just 20 years old, Marilyn was signed by 20th Century Fox, where she was transformed from a model into the iconic actress we know today. By 1950, she was already gaining fame, and by 1954, her infamous affair with JFK began, sparking rumors that would last for decades. The boys touch on her marriages to baseball legend Joe DiMaggio and playwright Arthur Miller, with a bit of humor thrown in, especially when Eric and Sean wonder about Miller's appeal compared to Marilyn's stunning beauty.From her platinum blonde hair to her famous red lips and white dress, Marilyn became the embodiment of stardom in the ‘50s and ‘60s. But beneath the fame and glamour, the boys point out, Marilyn's life was far from perfect, with her struggles in her personal relationships, her mental health issues, and an alleged affair with Bobby Kennedy.As the episode moves into the discussion of her tragic end, the boys delve into the conspiracy theories surrounding her death. Was it suicide? Or was she silenced for knowing too much? The episode ends on a cliffhanger, with the boys teasing more mysterious details to come in Part 2.The boys continue to explore the strange and unsettling details surrounding Marilyn Monroe's death. They start by recounting the events of August 1962, leading up to her final hours. The boys paint a picture of a woman at the mercy of the people around her—her psychiatrist, her housekeeper, and the people she loved, all seemingly playing their parts in a tragic, tangled web. Marilyn's strange behavior in the days leading up to her death, including mysterious phone calls and an unsettling phone call to Bobby Kennedy, adds more fuel to the fire.The boys examine the conflicting reports surrounding her condition that evening, as well as the discrepancies in the timeline of her death. Why did Marilyn's psychiatrist wait so long to call for help? Why did Peter Lawford and the Kennedys seem to vanish when she needed them the most? These questions lead to even more conspiracy theories—was Marilyn's death really a suicide, or did the Kennedys and the mob have a hand in it?The boys touch on the questionable actions of those closest to Marilyn, from her housekeeper, Eunice, to her psychiatrist, Dr. Greens, who was heavily involved in her life. The boys point out the eerie timing of events, from the strange phone calls she received the night before her death to the conflicting statements made by her associates afterward.By the end of Part 2, the boys discuss the most popular conspiracy theories, including the possibility that Marilyn was intentionally silenced by the Kennedys or the mob after she threatened to expose secrets that could have damaged the political establishment. With her death still shrouded in mystery, the boys agree that there's more to Marilyn Monroe's story than meets the eye.www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast

Que Lady Gaga ait interprété ce classique de Frank Sinatra en duo avec Tony Benett et en ait fait un succès, est déjà une gageure en pleine dictature électro sur les radios jeunes. Et qu'elle ait été fan de ce crooner autrefois dans le sillage du grand Frankie étonne également. Enfin, un peu moins depuis que la megastar Amy Winehouse avait aussi confessé sa fanitude pour ce chanteur d'un autre âge, interprète d'une musique qui avait bien failli disparaître complètement. Je vous raconte.Eté 1956, Frank Sinatra qui a, trois ans plus tôt, fait un retour inespéré dans le cœur du public après une traversée du désert, est redevenu N°1, quand tombe une déferlante nommée rock'n'roll. Face à cette révolution qui emporte avec elle la jeunesse, soit la moitié du public du marché du disque, Frank Sinatra est perplexe. Il est horrifié : c'est de la musique de bouseux dégénéré, a-t-il déclaré au Times. Et bien sûr, il déteste Elvis Presley. Il passe des journées enfermé dans son bureau à écouter toutes ses chansons, essayant de comprendre pourquoi le public s'est emballé pour ce truc. C'est quoi son secret, à Presley ? Pourtant, paradoxalement, la fin des années 50 va être la plus fructueuse de sa carrière, Sinatra enregistre 180 chansons, tourne six films et fait salle comble en tournée. Le marché du disque semble s'être coupé en deux, Elvis a les jeunes, lui, les vieux. Enfin, les adultes.Malgré la mort prématurée de son ami Humphrey Bogart, probablement le seul artiste que Sinatra ait jamais admiré, il va faire quelques rencontres déterminantes. Est-ce un hasard mais un mois plus tard, il se retrouve sur scène avec une autre star, Dean Martin, dont il ignorait qu'il était italien, comme lui. L'ex-partenaire à succès de Jerry Lewis avec qui il a formé le duo le plus populaire depuis Laurel & Hardy, s'appelle en fait Dino Crocetti. Et puis voilà que dans le show télé qu'il présente en 1958, Frank accueille un danseur noir nommé Sammy Davis Jr. Avec les acteurs Peter Lawford et Joey Bishop, ils forment une bande inséparable que leur amie Shirley MacLaine, va appeler affectueusement La bande de rat, The Rat Pack. Et oui, à la télévision dans les années 60 mais aussi au cinéma dans Ocean's Eleven et bien sûr, sur la scène du casino le Sands dont Sinatra est actionnaire, le Rat Pack, ce sera un peu ce qu'étaient les Beatles à leurs débuts, version adulte : des gars qui chantent ensemble et font des blagues aussi facilement qu'on parle. Combien de duos, trios, quatuors lors de représentations qui mêlent sketchs improvisés et chansons. Elvis Presley s'en inspirera dès son grand retour sur scène, à Vegas, est-ce un hasard, et bien sûr dans son show télé légendaire, le Comeback à la Noël 1968. Oui, quel que soit notre âge, notre génération, il y a quelque chose dans cette façon décomplexée d'aborder la chanson, de les interpréter cool, tiens c'est comme ça que les jeunes appelaient Sinatra à la fin des années 50. Le plus fou dans cette histoire, c'est que la formule lui a survécu, au-delà de son siècle, comme en témoigne le cover par Lady Gaga et Tony Bennett de sa chanson fétiche. C'était en 2011, déjà, vous le croyez ça ?

  Maureen Callahan Goes over the Edge Along with Megyn Kelly Review Part One James Lawson, advisor & assistant to MLK, passed way in Los Angeles on June 9th. Lawson had been an expert on non-violence and MLK's murder. Professor Jeffery Sachs interviewed Monica Wiesak about the assassination of JFK. Jim feels Monica Wiesak's America's Last President is the best book written on JFK in recent years. Read Jim's recent article Maureen Callahan Goes over the Edge Read Part Two Here The Posthumous Assassination of John F. Kennedy published by Jim in rebuttal to Seymour Hersh. Dark Side of Camelot - horribly written, poorly researched & a complete hatchet job. ABC bought the rights to Hersh's book, later discovered via forensic testing the documents were fake. Lawrence X. Cusack III forged the documents Hersh used as sources for The Dark Side of Camelot. Joseph Kennedy's secretary, never having met Marilyn Monroe, easily discredited Hersh's claims. Researcher Greg Schreiner, warned Hersh that signature on documents was not Marilyn Monroe’s. Greg Schreiner hosts a site dedicated to Marilyn at themarilynmonroesite.com Ask Not by Maureen Callahan a hack piece. Jim points out Ask Not was going nowhere, until Megyn Kelly's interview with Maureen Callahan. Listens to Megyn & Maureen's podcast contacted Jim to help debunk their research & claims. Marilyn Monroe, Jackie Kennedy & Carolyn Bessette's eyes featured on the cover of Ask Not. Why? DiEugenio has debunked rumours the Kennedy brothers were involved with Marilyn Monroe’s death. Don McGovern wrote Murder Orthodoxies & transferred it to the Marilyn from the 22nd Row website. If you read Don McGovern's book, you'll realize what a hoax the Marilyn Monroe industry was & is. Gary Vitacco Robles wrote a chapter dedicated to Marilyn wire tapping claims in his book Icon. Anthony Summers used bribes made by Nobel Kid Chissell to validate his research on Marilyn Monroe. Despite being debunked, Callahan uses Summers & Donald Wolfe as sources for her book. Summers & Wolfe give credibility to the liar, Robert Slatzer. Why? Jim recommends following Marilyn Monroe author April VeVea, creator of Classic Blondes. Despite lacking a marriage certificate, Robert Slatzer claimed he married Marilyn Monroe in 1952. Don McGovern tears this claim apart in his book, writing eighteen pages that discredit Slatzer's claims. April Vevea found photo of Marilyn taken in LA on the day Slatzer states they were married in Mexico. Slatzer bribed Nobel Kid Chissell, to state he was a witness to Robert & Marilyn's wedding ceremony. Slatzer ended up being Welshing on the deal. Jeanne Carmen made 31 appearances masquerading as Marilyn Monroe's best friend after her death. Bobby Kennedy was in San Francisco with his family on the day Marilyn died. Peter Lawford had invited Marilyn to his dinner party in Santa Monica & not in LA. Pathologist Boyd Stephens believed Marilyn committed suicide as drugs ingested, not injected. When JFK died, Jackie's trust fund was worth about $2 million a year in today's money. In 1967, Price Sihanouk declared the Vietnam war would not have happened if JFK had lived.  

The conspiracy theories surrounding Marilyn Monroe's death in 1962 continue to entertain the imaginations of those obsessed with celebrity and scandal. The stories, many of them fantastical and one of them true, feature cameos by the likes of President John F. Kennedy, his brother Attorney General Robert F.

"The Thin Man" is a radio play adaptation of the classic detective novel by Dashiell Hammett, which was first broadcast on Lux Radio Theatre on August 3, 1936, over the NBC Red Network. The play tells the story of retired detective Nick Charles, played by William Powell, and his wealthy socialite wife Nora, played by Myrna Loy, who become embroiled in a murder mystery when a former client of Nick's disappears and his secretary is found dead. The case takes them on a wild and witty ride through the world of high society and lowlifes as they search for clues to the killer's identity. The full cast of the radio play includes William Powell as Nick Charles, Myrna Loy as Nora Charles, Porter Hall as Clyde Wynant, Barbara Luddy as Dorothy Wynant, William Henry as Tommy, and Ted Osborne as Detective John Guild. The Lux Radio Theatre adaptation was so successful that it led to a series of films featuring Powell and Loy as Nick and Nora Charles, starting with the 1934 film "The Thin Man."The original novel by Dashiell Hammett was published in 1933 and was a groundbreaking work in the detective genre, known for its realistic portrayal of crime and characters. William Powell and Myrna Loy had already starred together in several films before "The Thin Man," but their chemistry as Nick and Nora Charles became legendary and they went on to star in a total of 14 films together. "The Thin Man" radio play was also adapted for television, with Peter Lawford and Phyllis Kirk playing Nick and Nora Charles in a series that ran from 1957 to 1959.

Former deep undercover detective and member Mike Rothmiller discusses deep politics, the abuse of power at the highest levels of government, and his new eye-opening book "Bombshell: The Night Bobby Kennedy Killed Marilyn Monroe". He profiles Marilyn Monroe and the Kennedy brothers and explains how he tracked down actor Peter Lawford, who was with Bobby Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe the night she died. Lawford explains that he witnessed a physical altercation between the two and that eventually Bobby gave Marilyn something to drink which left her dead on the bed. This was covered up by the LAPD. While discussing the deep state, he also tells a fascinating story of his trip to México City in the 1980s where a Mexican security official confided to him how the CIA was running drugs and weapons via México. *The host repeatedly misstated "Robert and Bobby" when he actually meant to say "John and Bobby".

By June of 1954, the thirty-six year-old Elliott Lewis was producer/director of four shows and the star of two. His peers affectionately dubbed him “Mr. Radio.” Perhaps most prominently, he'd been producer and director of Suspense since the fall of 1950. Program sponsor Autolite preferred to keep its commercials humorous, feeling that the change of pace shocked the audience to attention. Each 30-minute episode required over five-hundred total hours of work from fifty people. With Lewis at the helm, Suspense was able to stave off some of the decline in ratings other shows succumbed to. This was partly due to his partnership with Morton Fine and David Friedkin. Although the series, now airing on Mondays at 8PM, was still heard by roughly 12.5 million people each week, at season's end Autolite decided to discontinue their sponsorship after six years. The last Autolite Suspense episode was “A Terribly Strange Bed” on June 7th. Adapted by Morton Fine, it guest-starred Peter Lawford as an English cop in France who wins big at a gambling table, gets drunk, and ends up in a hotel room in a booby-trapped bed. Featured in this episode as The Cropier was Vic Perrin. After the episode climax, announcer Harlow Wilcox signed off for the two-hundred-forty-sixth and final time. Elliott Lewis left the production after July 27th. Suspense would remain a sustained show until finding multiple sponsorship in late 1956. Unfortunately for Lewis, his other shows would soon be canceled. Phil Harris and Alice Faye went off the air on June 18th. Crime Classics on June 30th. Broadway is My Beat on August 1st. And On Stage on September 30th. For more info on Elliott Lewis' career, tune into Breaking Walls episode 113.
