Sometimes the dirtiest money is the kind that only exists in one man's imagination. That's the case in this new installment of Christopher & Eric's True Crime TV Club. Dirty Sexy Money Month continues, a month long birthday celebration for both of your hosts. True crime TV series VANITY FAIR CONFIDENTIAL is the gift that keeps on giving, and episode 2 of season 5, "The Perfectly Sinister Mr. Rockefeller" has all the ingredients your hosts love to serve. Deceit, old money, long cons and shrewd detective work by law enforcement and journalists alike. This saga stretches from an affluent Southern California suburb to the halls of high finance in New York City to an Alpine village in Germany. By the time you've made the trip, you'll be amazed one man could get away with so much. Christopher and Eric sure were.
The Vanity Fair remarks attributed to Suzie Wiles detonated because they exposed a contradiction the administration has never resolved: public dismissal paired with private concern. Wiles spoke as someone familiar with the contents of the Epstein files, despite the Department of Justice itself maintaining that the archive is sprawling, incomplete, and still under review. That disparity raises unavoidable questions about access, authority, and motive. A White House Chief of Staff has no routine role in reviewing criminal case materials unless there is perceived political or institutional exposure. Her involvement suggests the files are being treated not as historical records, but as live risk assessments. That reality collapses the claim that Epstein is irrelevant or a “hoax.” You don't allocate senior attention to things you believe are meaningless.What makes this especially corrosive is the administration's refusal to explain how or why this access occurred. Silence has replaced transparency, reinforcing the impression that there is one narrative for the public and another for those in power. The Epstein case has always been less dangerous for what it reveals about one man than for what it exposes about institutional self-protection. By quietly engaging with the files while publicly minimizing them, the administration confirms that Jeffrey Epstein remains an unresolved liability. That contradiction is now on the record. And once power signals fear of what the files contain, the question is no longer whether they matter—but who they threaten, and why the public is being kept at arm's length from the truth.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The reporting about Suzie Wiles venting her frustrations now raises a sharper question: was this a genuine crash-out, or a carefully aimed targeted strike? On the surface, it looks like internal chaos spilling into public view, with Vanity Fair describing Wiles as openly disparaging Trump's behavior, likening his temperament to that of a drunk, and privately dismissing JD Vance as a long-time conspiracy theorist. Her subsequent pushback claims the comments were taken out of context, but she notably avoids directly denying the most explosive parts of the account. That selective rebuttal matters. A true crash-out is sloppy, emotional, and reckless. This leak, by contrast, appears curated, damaging in specific ways, and strategically incomplete, which raises the possibility that it was meant to land exactly where it did.That theory gains weight when the Epstein debacle is folded into the analysis, because it represents the administration's most visible and unifying failure. Vanity Fair's reporting paints a picture of an operation that badly fumbled the issue, with Pam Bondi taking heat but Trump ultimately owning the disaster. If this is a targeted strike, then Bondi and Kash Patel are the obvious targets—already unpopular, already under fire, and already being positioned as expendable. By letting internal contempt become public, Wiles helps redirect MAGA's fury away from Trump and toward figures who can be sacrificed to restore optics. That would give Trump the political breathing room to fire them while claiming course correction rather than culpability. So the question remains unresolved: are we witnessing an administration spiraling out of control, or a deliberate internal bombing run designed to set the stage for a purge? In Trumpworld, the answer may very well be both.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Think you know Demi Moore? Think again. My friend, Mackenzie, and I peel back the tabloid myths to trace a far more gripping arc: a child who found safety in hospital routines because home was chaos, a teenager forced to protect herself when the adults failed, and an artist who spent years equating value with a number on the scale while breaking box‑office ceilings and cultural taboos. Guided by Demi's memoir Inside Out, we connect the dots between early trauma, addiction, codependence, and the relentless body scrutiny of Hollywood—and how those patterns transform when you finally choose yourself.If this moved you, tap follow, share with a friend who loves smart memoir deep dives, and leave a quick review so more listeners can find the show.

In an informal conversation each month Grant and Bill comment on the photographic environment as they see it.

"Now these pilgrims, as I said, must needs go through this fair. Well, so they did; but, behold, even as they entered into the fair, all the people in the fair were moved, and the town itself, as it were, in a hubbub about them, and that for several reasons: For, 1. "First, The pilgrims were clothed with such kind of raiment as was diverse from the raiment of any that traded in that fair. The people, therefore, of the fair made a great gazing upon them! some said they were fools; some, they were bedlams; and some they were outlandish men.
We are kicking off Women's History Month with the one and only, Joan Didion. Before she became one of the most iconic writers of the 20th century, Joan Didion was just a quiet, observant girl from Sacramento who would go on to capture the myth and emotional reality of American life. From her early days at Vogue to her life in Hollywood and her marriage to fellow writer John Gregory Dunne, Joan Didion wasn't just participating in the culture. She was observing and documenting it. In this episode, we explore how Joan Didion became a literary icon, how she cultivated the persona of the ultimate cool girl, and why her writing captured the emotional reality behind America's myths.

Last year, Vanity Fair released an article about Lanterns written by Jeff Jensen. Along with that article came an image of Aaron Pierre (John Stewart) and Kyle Chandler (Hal Jordan) walking down a dusty road. Since then, we have had no more official photos. Why is the HBO Max DC Studio series so under wraps?! What are they hiding that they can't release a second image? Join me live to figure this out!

This week on Black on Black Cinema, the crew returns to introduce the next film to the reviewed, "Soul Men." The 2008 film follows two estranged soul-singing legends who agree to participate in a reunion performance at the Apollo Theater to honor their recently deceased band leader. The movie stars Samuel L. Jackson and the late great Bernie Mac. Available to stream for free on Tubi.The random topic this week we tackle the complex and difficult incident that unfolded at the 2026 BAFTA Film Awards when John Davidson, a Tourette's syndrome activist and subject of the nominated film "I Swear," involuntarily shouted racial slurs—including the N-word—while Black actors Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo presented an award.This isn't a simple story. It's a collision of disability rights, anti-Black racism, media responsibility, and institutional failure.What happened: Davidson, who has spent decades advocating for Tourette's awareness, experienced involuntary vocal tics throughout the ceremony. His condition causes coprolalia—the uncontrollable utterance of socially inappropriate words. When Jordan and Lindo took the stage, Davidson's tic produced the N-word, audible throughout the venue.The BBC's failure: Despite broadcasting on a two-hour delay (giving them time to edit), the BBC left the slur in the broadcast AND on iPlayer for 15+ hours. Yet they DID edit out other content, including a "Free Palestine" statement and political jokes. The selective editing reveals a catastrophic failure/purposeful behavior in judgment and priorities.The complications: This incident sits at the painful intersection of two marginalized communities. Davidson has no control over his tics—they represent the opposite of his actual beliefs. Yet Black attendees, including production designer Hannah Beachler, experienced real racial trauma. Lindo told Vanity Fair he wished BAFTA had spoken to them afterward. Host Alan Cumming's apology said "sorry if you were offended" was woefully inadequate.Why this matters for cinema: The film "I Swear" was nominated for multiple BAFTAs and won three awards, including Best Actor for Robert Aramayo's portrayal of Davidson. The movie exists to educate about Tourette's. Yet BAFTA and the BBC failed both the disability community AND the Black community in how they handled this moment.We discuss:- The impossible position both communities were put in due to the BBC's actions or lack thereof- Why institutional preparation and response failed catastrophically- The difference between individual accountability and systemic responsibility- How ableism and anti-Black racism played out in the aftermath (including the idea of "he meant that shit" comments)- What should have happened vs. what did happen- The broader conversation about representation, disability, and whose comfort gets prioritizedThis is a conversation about nuance, compassion, and holding institutions accountable when they fail vulnerable communities.Full Black on Black Cinema episodes coming soon.

Subscribe to Greg Fitzsimmons: https://bit.ly/subGregFitz Greg sits down with Ali Siddiq for a sharp, wide-ranging conversation that blends comedy craft, fatherhood, prison politics, and mental health. Ali opens up about performing through a broken toe, battling panic attacks on the road, raising nine kids with wildly different personalities, and why he continues to independently release massively successful specials after repeated industry rejection. It's funny, raw, opinionated, and full of the kind of honest storytelling that makes Ali one of the most compelling voices in stand-up today. Sponsors RULA Visit Rula.com/fitzdog to get started.

Wolf Hour (Knopf, 2026) When a small-time criminal and gun dealer is shot down in the street, all signs point to Tomas Gomez, a quiet man with a mysterious past—and deep connections to a notorious gang—who has seemingly vanished into thin air. Other murders soon follow, and it appears Gomez is only getting started. Meanwhile, Bob Oz, a down-and-out suspended police officer with a dubious past of his own, becomes fascinated by the case: he is obsessed with the notion of hunting down a serial killer who only he can understand, a killer with a story as tragic as his own. Minneapolis, Minnesota, 2022. An enigmatic Norwegian man with ties to Minneapolis—a self-described crime writer—has traveled to the United States to research the Gomez case, in the hopes of writing a book about it. But as his investigation progresses, the writer's seemingly neutral position reveals itself to be more complicated than the reader is initially led to believe. Wolf Hour is a twisty and unforgettable thriller in classic Jo Nesbø style, which bears out Vanity Fair's observation that “Nesbø explores the darkest criminal minds with grim delight and puts his killers where you least expect to find them. . . . His novels are maddeningly addictive.” Learn more about your ad choices.

They share their experiences with menopause and how they factored into the creation of their show. They compare stories that address the challenges of menopause and explore the cultural shifts surrounding women's voices and health discussions. They also discuss te impact of shame on their experiences, the current flourishing state of Canadian television, and the impact of Catherine O'Hara's legacy. Season two of Small Achievable Goals follows Julie Muldoon (Jennifer Whalen) and Kris Fine (Meredith MacNeill), two very different women navigating friendship and the hormonal hurricane of menopause while trying to keep their new podcast and their sanity intact. Life as the Podcast Folks have known it is upheaved under the ownership of Amanda King (Tamara Podemski) and the company culture of Queen of Kings. What started as a dream job for Kris and Julie quickly becomes a nightmare as they struggle to make an honest, raw and real show about menopause while attempting to navigate the change themselves. Jennifer Whalen is a writer, actor, improviser, and Showrunner. She is co-creator, writer and star of the comedy series Small Achievable Goals (CBC). She is also one fourth of Baroness von Sketch Show, as a co-creator, writer, star and showrunner of seasons four and five.

She originated the role of the Aviatrix in the Tony Award Winning Musical Drowsy Chaperone. She enjoys video games and is easily startled. Meredith MacNeill is a Canadian showrunner, producer, writer, and actress. She is most known for creating and starring in the critically acclaimed series Baroness Von Sketch Show, which was named one of The 10 Best Sketch-Comedy Shows to Stream by Vanity Fair.

Throughout the seasons on CBC and IFC, the show received multiple Canadian Screen Awards, including Best Sketch Comedy Show & Ensemble Performance, an ACTRA Award and a Canadian Comedy Award. Meredith recently wrapped Season 2 of her hit comedy series Small Achievable Goals for the CBC, which she co-created, co-showruns, and co-stars with fellow Baroness alum Jennifer Whalen.

Jalen Brunson opened up in a revealing Vanity Fair interview and a few comments have Knicks fans buzzing for very different reasons. From the oddly specific details about his off-court life to a brutally honest assessment of the team's current shortcomings, Brunson did not sugarcoat where things stand. But the real headline is financial. Brunson acknowledged the massive discount he took to help the Knicks build a contender and hinted that he expects to be repaid in the future. By 2028, he could be eligible for a five-year deal worth well over $400 million, a staggering number for a 32-year-old point guard. Is this simply the cost of doing business in today's NBA, or a ticking time bomb for the franchise? Would the Knicks actually commit that kind of money long term? And if they hesitate, could another team swoop in and change the entire landscape of New York basketball? This episode breaks down Brunson's candid comments, the reality of the NBA salary structure, the risk of paying aging stars, and what it all means for the Knicks' championship window.
To be fair, my interview with Miyako was before Marty came to our screens…. you've seen in previous posts my excuse for the dog eating my homework; I've been producing a film in Philadelphia and the timing is less than stellar. I was also waiting to speak to Mike Fontaine and Kyra Panchenko about their makeup work on Marty which has since been recognized by BAFTA, but Kyra is insanely busy and our schedules did not align. So I am finally releasing my talk with Miyako mostly for bragging rights that I, too was granted the honor of having this superstar on the show.Miyako Bellizzi is THAT GIRL that you want to friends with. She is impossibly cool and effortlessly chic, and above all, spectacularly talented. Josh Safdi's Marty Supreme is without a doubt a polarizing film, but the one fact that is undisputed is it looked flawless. The authenticity, detail, and style are deserving of their Academy Award Nominations and we all knew from the moment this film was released that Bellizzi would be among those craftspeople who were recognized during awards season. I spoke to Miyako early in the film's release so we talked about the press tour a lot. I am not ashamed to admit that I have all the Marty Merch including the Wheaties Box. So while you may have seen this beautiful woman and her extraordinary work in this film featured everywhere from Vogue to Vanity Fair, we had a great time speaking off the cuff about the excitement of the cultural influence of an A24 press tour.

Listen to the rest of this premium episode by subscribing at patreon.com/knowyourenemy.This episode is about Shattered Glass, the 2003 movie portraying former New Republic writer Stephen Glass's fall from the heights of magazine journalism after he was exposed as a serial fabulist who routinely made up quotes, sources, key details, and more in his stories. We've both loved this movie for years, and thought discussing it would serve as a companion of sorts to our interview with Jason Zengerle about Tucker Carlson—and, of course, as a chance for us to geek out about it. After describing the basics of the plot and introducing the main characters, we explore the history of the New Republic under its then-owner and editor in chief Marty Peretz; its string of young, Harvard educated editors during the Peretz Era, who often had short, turbulent stints in that role; fact-checking and the mythos of objective journalism; the relationship between elite magazine writing and celebrity culture during "the end of history"; and more.Sources:Shattered Glass (2003)Buzz Bissinger, "Shattered Glass," Vanity Fair, Sept 1998Howard Kurtz, "Stranger Than Fiction: The Cautionary Tale of Magazine Writer Stephen Glass," Washington Post, May 12, 1998Jonathan Last, "Stopping Stephen Glass," Weekly Standard, Oct 30, 2003Pete Croatto, "Why ‘Shattered Glass' Endures," Poynter, Jan 24, 2024Martin Peretz, The Controversialist: Arguments with Everyone, Left Right and Center (2023)Benjamin Wallace-Wells, "Peretz in Exile," New York, Dec 23, 2010John Cook, "Why Won't Anyone Tell You That Marty Peretz Is Gay?"

Much like guest Sarah Aziza's beautiful memoir, The Hollow Half, this week's show covers a lot of territory and shines light on multiple topics of interest to memoirists. We explore memoir as art—what that means and whether memoirists should strive for their work to be art per se. Aziza's book is experimental and ambitious, and as such gives this week's episode delves into craft choices and process and more. Aziza shares her family history and how her grandmother started to show up in her dreams—and how this memoir took root and ultimately became the gift it is—timely, urgent, and beautiful.

In March of 2015, Denise Huskins was kidnapped, drugged, sexually assaulted, and held for 48 hours. When she was released, police called it a hoax and demanded that she apologize for wasting resources. The media dubbed it the "Gone Girl" case and death threats started flooding in. Except it wasn't a hoax at all. It was a Harvard-educated serial rapist named Matthew Muller who'd been terrorizing California for years. In this episode, we'll go through the kidnapping, the police misconduct that revictimized the survivors, Detective Misty Carausu's brilliant investigative work that finally caught Muller, and how Denise and Aaron turned trauma into national advocacy. From victims to suspects to survivors...their story changed how law enforcement handles sexual assault cases across America.For Survivors of Sexual Violence:- RAINN National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-HOPE (4673)- RAINN Online Chat:https://hotline.rainn.org/online- Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741- National Sexual Violence Resource Center:https://www.nsvrc.org/For Victims of Police Misconduct:- ACLU:https://www.aclu.org/- National Police Accountability Project:https://www.nlg-npap.org/- Innocence Project:https://innocenceproject.org/Mental Health Support:- National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 988- SAMHSA National Helpline: 1-800-662-4357- Psychology Today Therapist Finder:https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapistsSources:San Francisco Chronicle (Henry K.

British journalist Vicky Ward first profiled sex offender Jeffrey Epstein in 2003 for Vanity Fair. The experience was so alarming and stressful that she went into labor with her twins at 30 weeks, two months early. More than 20 years later, Ward, still following the case, talks with Tonya Mosley about the fallout from the millions of publicly released documents, and why this story took so long to come out.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

In this special edition of the Ask Mo Anything (AMA) Mo News Premium Podcast, reporter and author, Vicky Ward, joined us last week for a wide-ranging conversation about all things Epstein files. AMA podcasts typically are only available to Mo New Premium members, but given the high interest in this topic, we are making this episode available to everyone. She shared her experience first covering Jeffrey Epstein in 2002, before there were any allegations against him regarding child abuse or sex trafficking. She explains how he not only manipulated young women, but also wealthy men interested in his vast network of millionaires – none of which she believes can plausibly deny knowing what Epstein was up to. She also reveals how Vanity Fair blocked her from reporting on the sexual abuse 20 years ago. Ward also talks about what's missing from the latest Department of Justice document leaks, whether President Trump is hiding anything, and why it's unlikely Epstein was working for the CIA or Mossad (as theories have suggested).
