Vanity Fair covered her divorce and the criminal trial that followed. The Wall Street Journal reported on her relentless battle between “the suits” and “the creatives" and Mellon's triumph against a brutally hostile takeover attempt.But despite her eventual fame and fortune, Mellon didn't have an easy road to success. Her early life was marked by a tumultuous and broken family life, battles with anxiety and depression, and a stint in rehab. Determined not to end up unemployed, penniless, and living in her parents' basement under the control of her alcoholic mother, Mellon honed her natural business sense and invested in what she knew best—fashion.In creating the shoes that became a fixture on Sex and the City and red carpets around the world, Mellon relied on her own impeccable sense of what the customer wanted—because she was that customer. What she didn't know at the time was that success would come at a high price—after struggles with an obstinate business partner, a conniving first CEO, a turbulent marriage, and a mother who tried to steal her hard-earned wealth.Now Mellon shares the whole larger-than-life story, with shocking details that have never been presented before. From her troubled childhood to her time as a young editor at Vogue to her partnership with the cobbler Jimmy Choo, to her very public relationships, Mellon offers an honest and gripping account of the episodes that have made her who she is today.In My Shoes is a definitive book for fashion aficionados, aspiring entrepreneurs, and anyone who loves a juicy true story about sex, drugs, money, power, high heels, and overcoming adversity. This episode is what I learned from reading In My Shoes: A Memoir by Tamara Mellon. -----Ramp gives you everything you need to control spend, watch your costs, and optimize your financial operations —all on a single platform.

Are you struggling to attract the right donors and volunteers to your nonprofit? The secret might lie in your organization's vision and mission statements. These foundational elements are more than just corporate jargon – they're powerful tools that can transform your fundraising efforts and organizational impact. In this eye-opening episode, I'm joined by Dan Johnson, a seasoned nonprofit coach who has raised over $3 million for new nonprofits and helped turn around struggling organizations. Dan shares his expertise on crafting compelling vision and mission statements that resonate with donors and align with your organization's goals. Why Vision and Mission Statements Matter Dan reveals why these often overlooked elements are crucial for nonprofit success: - They provide clarity and focus for your organization's efforts - They help attract donors and volunteers who share your values - They guide decision-making and strategic planning - They differentiate your nonprofit from others in the same space Key Insights on Crafting Effective Statements Learn how to create vision and mission statements that drive results: - The five essential components of a powerful nonprofit vision - How to craft a problem statement that resonates with donors - Tips for creating a mission statement that highlights your unique approach - The importance of incorporating specific, measurable goals Putting Your Vision into Action Discover practical strategies for integrating your vision and mission into every aspect of your organization: - How to use your statements in marketing and fundraising efforts - Ways to incorporate your vision into staff and volunteer onboarding - Tips for regularly reviewing and refining your statements Don't miss this opportunity to revolutionize your nonprofit's approach to vision and mission statements. Tune in to gain insights that will help you attract the right supporters, increase your impact, and create lasting change in your community. Want to skip ahead? Here are key takeaways: 06:28 Crafting an Effective Problem Statement Get specific about the issue being addressed, talking to those affected, and using their language. A well-crafted problem statement helps donors connect emotionally and understand the organization's unique approach to creating change. 19:38 Setting Measurable Goals and Staying Focused Include specific, measurable goals in vision statements to drive accountability. Stay focused on the core problem and not getting distracted by unrelated opportunities. Regular review of vision and goals helps keep your organization on track. 30:47 Developing Effective Value Statements Another role of value statements is in attracting and retaining staff and volunteers. Limit values to three core principles and including specific ways the organization upholds them. This approach helps create accountability and ensures the desired culture is maintained. 34:51 Crafting a Unique Mission Statement An effective mission statement clearly communicates an organization's unique approach. Explicitly state what makes the nonprofit different from others addressing similar issues, which can help with fundraising and marketing efforts. Dan Johnson Dan is a nonprofit coach that helps business owners and professionals create nonprofits that last. Dan has raised over $3 million for new nonprofits, turned around several struggling organizations, and helped over 30 nonprofit leaders create sustainable nonprofits.

“OLD HOLLYWOOD's TOXIC TRIANGLE” - 5/19/2025 (088) Hollywood in the mid-20th century was a world of glitz and glamour, a realm where dreams could be made or destroyed in an instant. It was an era when the silver screen crafted illusions of romance and perfection, yet behind the scenes, the personal lives of its stars often unraveled into chaos, scandal, and tragedy. Few stories exemplify this dark side of Hollywood better than the volatile love triangle involving actress BARBARA PEYTON and actors FRANCHOT TONE and TOM NEAL. What began as a passionate romance descended into obsession, violence, and ultimate ruin—forever marking the three as cautionary tales of unchecked desire and self-destruction. In this episode, we explore this explosive love triangle and its aftermath.

Episode Summary:   In this eye-opening episode, we dive deep into the often-overlooked cornerstone of women's health: the cardiovascular system. Join host Dr. Robyn Benson for a powerful conversation with Andie Crosby, President of Calroy Health Sciences, as they expose why your heart—and more specifically, your blood vessels—should be the first place you look when it comes to living a longer, more vibrant life.   Guest Bio:   Andie Crosby has over 30 years' marketing and business development experience working with iconic brands such as Nike, Apple, Gap, Proctor & Gamble and magazines such as Rolling Stone, Glamour, and Vanity Fair. In 2010, her personal interest in health and wellness converged with an opportunity to build and lead the first marketing team at The Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM). She was the driving force behind a 13x increase in the number of clinicians trained by IFM and a resulting surge in awareness and demand for functional medicine amongst both patients and practitioners. She went on to run the Strategic Partnerships and Innovations team working across the ecosystem to create and nurture alliances to further the adoption of functional medicine.   TOP QUOTE                                                                                      “Vascular Health Is Foundational Health. Every organ and system in your body relies upon the oxygen, nutrients, and other molecules delivered by your vascular system. Since vascular health underpins overall health, taking care of your vascular health can change your life.”   ---Andie Crosby President of Calroy Health Sciences     Key Takeaways:   ·      Why cardiovascular health is the #1 longevity lever for women—and why it's so often ignored until it's too late ·      The critical role of the endothelial glycocalyx—a microscopic, life-sustaining structure that's ground zero for your vascular integrity, inflammation response, and nutrient delivery ·      How nitric oxide supports energy, sexual vitality, and even skin radiance—and what damages your ability to produce it naturally ·      Simple, science-backed strategies to support heart health proactively, not reactively ·      This is the conversation every woman needs to hear—whether you're optimizing for performance, preventing disease, or simply refusing to age on autopilot.   Resources for a Younger Lifestyle: From now through the end of the year, YOUNGER podcast listeners will get 10% off their order of Arterosil HP for glycocalyx support and Vascanox HP for blood flow support PLUS a free bag of oral microbiome gum for happy smiles and healthy hearts.       The Special Offer Price and the Original Price (do not include for Free Gift offers): $142 special offer; $187 original price plus free gum The link to your Special Offer item for Sale: http://calroy.com/drrobyn   For more YOUNGER Podcast Episodes: https://robynbenson.com/podcasts/   Quotes:   “Your vascular system is the foundation of your overall health. There are 60,000 miles of blood vessels in your body. They supply oxygen and essential nutrients to every organ in your body and carry away toxic waste. If you're looking for a long and healthy life, taking care of your vascular system must be a top priority.”   “Many women are recognizing the importance of physical activity for their cardiovascular health.” “Menopausal Women have greater challenges to maintaining their vascular health due to hormonal shifts.”   “Women preparing for the menopause transition, who would like to live a preventative lifestyle consider eating an anti-inflammatory diet, reducing insulin resistance and visceral fat, incorporating strength, aerobic, and flexibility training as rotation in their weekly exercises, and investing in sleep comfort.”    "The endothelial glycocalyx is really one of the most important and intensely researched areas in human health in years." ---Dr. Kara Fitzgerald    

In perhaps the spermiest film we've ever covered, John Travolta and Kirstie Alley hang out with a baby voiced by Bruce Willis and Amy Heckerling gets revenge on Harold Ramis. As David Sims says early in this episode - Look Who's Talking is a VERY RICH text.

TWIST & SHOUT— Philip Burke's portraits don't just look like the people he paints—they actually vibrate. Just look at them. With wild color, skewed proportions, and emotional clarity, his illustrations have lit up the pages of Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, Time, and Vanity Fair, capturing cultural icons in a way that feels both chaotic and essential.But behind that explosive style is a steady, spiritual core.Burke begins each day by chanting. It sounds like this: “Nam Myōhō Renge Kyō. Nam Myōhō Renge Kyō. Nam Myōhō Renge Kyō.” It means “devotion to the mystic law of cause and effect through sound,” he says. The chant grounds Burke and opens a space where true connection—on the canvas and in life—can happen.This daily practice is more than a ritual—it's a source of creative clarity. Burke's rise was rapid and raw. Emerging from Buffalo, New York, he made his name in the punk-charged art scene of the 1980s with a fearless, high-voltage style. But it was through his spiritual journey that the work began to transform—less about distortion for shock, and more about essence, empathy, and insight. Less funhouse mirror, more human.Our Anne Quito spoke to Burke about how Buddhism reshaped his approach to portraiture, what it means to truly see a subject, and why staying present—both on the page and in life—is his greatest creative discipline.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.

In October 2001, the dismembered remains of seventy-one-year-old Morris Black were found floating in Galveston Bay. A few days later, Black's neighbor, Robert Durst, was arrested on suspicion of murder and released on $250,000 bail. After posting bail, Durst jumped bail and disappeared for six weeks, before being arrested by Pennsylvania authorities at the end of November.In the years that followed, investigators and prosecutors began combing through Durst's life, discovering disturbing connections between the excentric millionaire and the mysterious disappearances and deaths of several people who were once close to Durst. Robert Durst had been a suspect in the murder of Morris Black, but was it possible he was in fact a multiple murderer who'd evaded detection for decades?Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesAssociated Press. 2001.

In October 2001, the dismembered remains of seventy-one-year-old Morris Black were found floating in Galveston Bay. A few days later, Black's neighbor, Robert Durst, was arrested on suspicion of murder and released on $250,000 bail. After posting bail, Durst jumped bail and disappeared for six weeks, before being arrested by Pennsylvania authorities at the end of November.In the years that followed, investigators and prosecutors began combing through Durst's life, discovering disturbing connections between the excentric millionaire and the mysterious disappearances and deaths of several people who were once close to Durst. Robert Durst had been a suspect in the murder of Morris Black, but was it possible he was in fact a multiple murderer who'd evaded detection for decades?Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesAssociated Press. 2001.

Elon Musk has always denied knowing Ghislaine Maxwell and has maintained that the photograph of them together at a Vanity Fair party was nothing more than him being photobombed by her.However, according to a new source who was at the event, it seems there's a little more to the encounter.So, let's dive in and see what's up!(commercial at 14:32)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11304327/Ghislaine-Maxwell-asked-Elon-Musk-DESTROY-internet-pic-Vanity-Fair-reporter-reveals.html

Jeff Sharlet has spent the past few years embedded in the deepest corners of the growing far-right movement in the United States. He's come to think of it as a black hole, something that can pull people in with ever-shifting grievances and a desire for power. He chronicles the movement and the characters in it in his book The Undertow: Scenes from a Slow Civil War and joins us to discuss the book and how he's thinking about its thesis in the context of the new Trump administration. We also discuss some of Sharlet's more recent reporting on war churches in Idaho and Washington, and how things that were on the fringes of the movement five years ago are now squarely in the mainstream.Sharlet is the Frederick Sessions Beebe '35 Professor in the Art of Writing and Director of Creative Writing at Dartmouth College. He is also the author of The Family: The Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power, which was adapted into a Netflix documentary series, and This Brilliant Darkness: A Book of Strangers.His reporting on LGBTQI+ rights around the world has received the National Magazine Award, the Molly Ivins Prize, and Outright International's Outspoken Award. His writing and photography have appeared in many publications, including Vanity Fair, for which he is a contributing editor; The New York Times Magazine; GQ; Esquire; Harper's Weekly; and VQR, for which he is an editor at large.

This week, we'll continue digging into the story of infamous Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, beginning where we left off last week with the Reichstag Fire, a suspicious incident that led to the destruction of democracy and withdrawal of civil liberties in Germany. As you'll see, once those civil liberties were gone, Hitler was free to do as he pleased and what "he pleased" happened to include a world war and the mass murders of millions. We'll examine how it all went down, how he was finally stopped, and assess the risk of another Hitler-like monster rising to power today. Support the show! Join the Patreon (patreon.com/historyfixpodcast)Buy some merchBuy Me a CoffeeVenmo @Shea-LaFountaineSources: National WWII Museum "How did Adolf Hitler Happen?"History.com "Adolf Hitler"BBC "Adolf Hitler: Man and Monster"Time Magazine "Adolf Hitler: Man of the Year, 1938"The Atlantic "How Hitler Dismantled a Democracy in 53 Days"The Conversation "Understanding how Hitler became German helps us with modern-day extremists" The Atlantic "What the Press Got Wrong About Hitler" History Extra "Hitler's millionaire backers: how Germany's elite facilitated the rise of the Nazis" The Globalist "Trump and Hitler: How Accurate a Comparison?"Vanity Fair "Hitler's Doomed Angel"BBC "Hitler's Appointment as Chancellor, 1933" Wikipedia "Hitler Family"US Holocaust Memorial Museum "How and why did ordinary people across Europe contribute to the persecution of their Jewish neighborsJewish Virtual Library "When Did the World Find Out About the Holocaust?"Smithsonian Magazine "The True Story of the Reichstag Power and the Nazi Rise to Power"US Holocaust Memorial Museum "The Reichstag Fire"Shoot me a message!

In this episode, we travel with Dominick Dunne fresh out of Paris in 1998 and into Washington DC in 1999. Our man Nick is still a bit out of his element inside the beltway, but he will get his bearings fairly quickly and thankfully tell us all about it. Dunne wrote about his time in January 1999 for Vanity Fair in a piece titled Mr. Dunne Goes to Washington, and it is revealing in many ways, even almost thirty years later into the future. Dunne spills the details on his feelings about Bill and Hillary Clinton, the 1999 State of the Union, many a Georgetown party, and the end of his friendship with Lucianne Goldberg as well, which has Dunne having a front row seat into the scandal as it was developing real time. With connections into all kinds of past spiderwebs, this one is sure to please your investigative hearts. Continue your investigation with ad-free and bonus episodes on Patreon!

Remember magazines? Piled high on coffee tables or tucked into seatback pockets. Savored beneath beach umbrellas or skimmed anxiously in dental waiting rooms. Glorious, glossy magazines. Graydon Carter made some of the best. He started with Spy, a sly, sharp-edged monthly that managed to feel both smarter and more mischievous than anything else on the rack. But it was Vanity Fair that became his cathedral. Over his remarkable 25-year tenure as editor, he built the magazine into a financial juggernaut and a cultural touchstone renowned for its ambitious journalism and arresting photography. The hard-won wisdom he gathered along the way — about editing, storytelling, leadership, and how to leave before the music stops — is the subject of his new memoir, When the Going Was Good. (This conversation was recorded live at WBUR Cityspace.)

Why do airplanes have ashtrays if smoking is prohibited? Could someone open the airplane door in mid-flight? What are the green and red flashing lights on the plane for? These are some of the common questions about air travel that I answer to start this episode. https://www.smartmeetings.com/tips-tools/103099/answers-random-airplane-questions Are you the kind of person who likes to explore and try something new or are you more likely to stick to the tried and true and do what you did before? Of course, it depends on the situation, but it seems some people, for example, like to order the same thing off the menu time and time again while others order something different every time. Some people like to go back to the same place for vacation while others prefer to visit somewhere they've never been before. Why is that? Here to discuss this interesting quirk of human nature is Alex Hutchinson. He is a columnist for Outside magazine and has contributed to the New York Times, The New Yorker and other publications. He is author of the book The Explorer's Gene: Why We Seek Big Challenges, New Flavors, and the Blank Spots on the Map (https://amzn.to/3XRGYQa). All exercise is good but strength training in particular has some wonderful benefits you may not be aware of. Those benefits include weight control, improved mental health, fighting cancer and more. Strength training is simply lifting weights that strengthen your muscles and it can help anyone at any age. Here to explain the benefits and explain how to do it is Michael Joseph Gross. He is a longtime Vanity Fair contributing editor who has published investigative reports, essays, and books about culture, technology, and business and he is author of the book, Stronger: The Untold Story of Muscle in Our Lives (https://amzn.to/4ib4sHc). You may think memory loss and mental decline is a problem for old people, but it actually begins at a much earlier age.
