For the latest episode of NostalgiaCast '70s Palooza, Jonny and Darin tackle the faux-documentary / biography / proto-YouTube video essay that is Orson Welles's F FOR FAKE. They talk about the movie as an examination of authorship over art, Welles's (brazen but ultimately unsuccessful) attempts to explode the documentary form, and how a story of charlatans, magicians, and frauds slots into the legendary director's manic career.

Geoff Schumacher, vice president of exhibits and programs at the Mob Museum, joins host Adam Camac to discuss key figures, issues, and events from the history of Las Vegas.  The show notes page for this episode can be found at placesandprofiles.com/13.

In this edition of Channeling History, we interview the spirit of Howard Hughes and his wife, Jean Peters. He speaks of his life as the richest man in the worlds and his mental and physical degeneration as he became a recluse. His wife speaks of being married to him during this time. Please subscribe to our channel, give us a like and tell your friends about our show.

Some would consider Howard Hughes a Godfather of sorts for American aviation.  Howard was a complex human being to say the very least. The man was a Movie Producer/Director, an Aircraft Designer, Test Pilot, Airline Owner, Record Setting Pilot, The Wealthiest Man in the World, Casino Owner, Congressional Asskicker, and more. Plus he survived 4 airplane crashes. But those things may pale in comparison to the madness that accompanied Howard's genius. We cover it all here. Class is in session.

Intro/Outro Music by B-Complex

It’s hard to deny that we now live in a celebrity-centric society. At one time, programming like “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” seemed a novel concept. Now we’re bombarded almost daily with content chronicling the everyday activities of celebrities of all kinds — including stars with no real claim to fame other than having amassed a large following on social media.

Our fascination with the rich and famous is hard to put down. We like to believe that our favorite celebrities are like us — they walk their dogs, go shopping, hit the gym, and live much like we do. That’s probably why all that TMZ-style photo and video content centered on celebrities going on about their daily lives is such a mainstay of social media. It reinforces the notion that stars are very similar to us despite their wealth and fame.

Comforting as that may be, most of us — probably yourself included — also realize that, in some respects, celebrities are, in fact, nothing like us. After all, multi-million-dollar estates, exotic cars that cost more than many houses, entourages, and travel via private jet are luxuries that few of us get to experience.

Considering the financial resources at their disposal, you’d think that most celebrities would have a legion of financial experts at arm’s reach to not only maximize their income but also build estate plans that leave nothing to chance when it comes time to transfer all that accumulated wealth to the heirs of their choosing.

As it turns out, that’s often not the case. When it comes to estate planning, many celebrities are very much like us, either putting it off

entirely or dealing with it in a haphazard fashion. In our newest episode of Absolute Trust Talk, Kirsten Howe and associate attorney, Madison Gunn, take a closer look at some of the surprising missteps — ranging from poor planning to outright avoidance — that many members of the rich and famous have made when planning for that time when they’ll no longer be around. 

A number of these situations will probably seem pretty familiar, yet the fallout from these celebrities either taking ill-conceived actions — or no action at all — can be substantial. Huge amounts of wealth that could have otherwise been shielded end up in the government coffers via taxation, heirs battling it out in court for years (literally), and some heirs being enriched to the extent that has led them down a tragic, and sometimes even fatal, path.

It’s a bit of a departure from most of our ATC podcasts, but it still maintains a common thread. You’ll hear stories about the rich and famous that are, at times, both sobering and entertaining, and yet there’s no shortage of teachable moments included. Besides being better equipped to avoid estate planning mishaps, you’ll also walk away from this podcast with a better idea of the right steps to take for a smoother process when planning and administering your estate.

In this episode, we’re going to discuss:

• How, despite wealth and access to the best financial advice, celebrities often avoid the topic of estate planning altogether
• The challenges that come with estates that include music rights and other intellectual property
• Missteps by the rich and famous that have led to the government taking huge shares of estates at the expense of potential heirs
• How poor planning has led to heirs being enriched to the extent that they proved unable to handle
• Why having the best of intentions and communicating them to others is no substitute for a properly executed will
• The privacy implications of a celebrity dying intestate

And more.

Because so much wealth is usually at stake, we tend to assume that the rich and famous almost always take the necessary steps to ensure their estate plans reflect their intentions and are airtight. Unfortunately, this is often not true, but as you’ll see, when celebrities either improvise with their estate plans — or take no action — the consequences can be enormous. The fallout may make for good tabloid fodder, but at the same time, it’s sobering.

Burn baby, burn! Franklin W. Dixon's inferno!

"Arson and Old Lace" is the 21st episode of the second season of "The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries." This one stars Shaun Cassidy and Parker Stevenson as the titular boys from Bayport on Barmet Bay. Basically, fellow-sleuth Nancy Drew has been missing for months, and the Hardy Boys sign on to take one more look at her case, before it goes cold. Things heat up quite a bit from there.

Airing on April 1, 1978, this episode also marks the final appearance of Janet Julian's Nancy Drew. Stevenson and Cassidy would go on to burn through a ridiculous final season where the Hardy Boys are spies.

Listen to Áine and Kevin fan the flames of rage against this often-silly, often-offensive episode of a 1970s kid show. We'll breathe fire and rage about the Towering Inferno, the grizzled chief who tries to hijack the show, and why hack writers should probably stay away from heavy topics like long-term kidnappings.

Who would you rather ....be?  Our fresh take on the age old question.  Generally you have to pick who you would rather sleep with...we like to live in imaginary world and pick who we would rather switch lives with.  We start with Howard Hughes and Hugh Hefner and somehow end up talking about The West Wing, Harrison Ford and John Krasinski and Jeff Daniels.

Just wait until our version of Fuck, Marry, Kill....  this is gonna get good.

Also, Misty cant whistle and didn't learn to wink until she was...today years old.

And Ike is a little Much Much.

Jeff Timan stopped by the gallery today for this edition of the Art Dealer Diaries. A special individual, Jeff is one of the owners of the world-famous Hacienda del Sol Guest Ranch Resort founded in Tucson in the 1920s as well as one of the founding members of the group SculptureTucson.com. We had a wonderful discussion about Jeff's life in Tucson and the evolution he's seen take place since 1958, what it's like to run a resort in the middle of a pandemic, and finally how he feels about art in general and the positive effect of lacing sculptural works throughout an entire community.

*SculptureTucson.com is doing a drive through sculpture show at Hacienda del Sol through May 31st a part of each sale goes to the purchase of sculpture for Tucson. Works by world-renown artists like Otto Rigan and Curt Brill (both of whom are represented at Medicine Man Gallery) are on display and if you drive through the show and happen to fall in love with one of the works you can buy it right there, from your car.
