  • Drama Duel: Benjamin Jonson vs. Gabriel Spencer

    Drama Duel: Benjamin Jonson vs. Gabriel Spencer
    May 5 2025
    Welcome to the life of Benjamin Jonson—widely regarded as the second-best playwright of the Elizabethan era and ALWAYS in competition with Shakespeare. Before rising to literary fame, Jonson was part of the Admiral’s Men acting troupe in London, where he found himself caught in deadly dramas on and offstage. In 1598, he killed actor Gabriel Spencer in a duel—an encounter that turned fatal with a man already known for his violent streak.

    Apr 28 2025

    We're talking today about the beloved children's classic that features a demonic recluse who delights in the torture of children, while his enslaved factory workers are forced to sing and dance in unison. Believe it or not I actually love this film. Come with me, Misfits. It'll be a scrumdiddlyumtious good time!

  • The Murder of Adriana Piñon

    The Murder of Adriana Piñon
    Apr 21 2025

    As a teenager, Adriana Piñon took night classes in addition to her regular high school curriculum so that she could graduate early and focus on her acting and modeling career. At 17 she landed a gig as a recurring extra on "The Young and the Restless," and after her 18th birthday producers informed her they were upgrading her to a speaking role. Adriana was elated, but tragically someone robbed her of that dream before she got to have her moment in the spotlight.
