With Memorial Day upon us, we are kicking off the summer of 2026, by going back to 1972. Peter Beard made a film a few years ago, That Summer, which is a time capsule of so many people and events. It is through this time that Peter Beard and Lee Radziwell conduct a love affair, and document all the happenings of this special time.

What is included? A little movie project with Lee’s relatives, Big Edie and Little Edie. Extraordinary footage collected from Scorpios to Montauk to Grey Gardens. And so many players from our cinematic universe make an appearance too!

Just last week, one of the major players in the OJ Simpson trial passed away. Mark Fuhrman, former L.A.P.D. detective, died at the age of 74 in Idaho. His role within the trial provided one of the major blows to the prosecution when his previous job history and racial comments allowed the defense team to pivot their client's defense to an offensive position against the police. Our man Nick did lend Fuhrman a little help in the aftermath of the trial as well.

Last week Betty Broderick passed away in prison at the age of 78, spending 34 years of her life locked up after murdering her ex-husband Dan and his second wife. Betty’s ultimately fatal obsession was a true crime standout and captured the nation’s attention through her two separate trials.

It seemed fitting this week to reprise this episode from the archive to revisit the very trashy divorce of Dan and Betty Broderick, including her crime and punishment.

Today, we are taking a little trip to Cap Ferrat on the Riviera to explore the connections and spiderwebs in one special house, Villa La Mauresque. This house has played host to many a high society and literary figure in its day being owned at one time by both Somerset Maugham and Lynn Wyatt. This villa is loaded with history, and is a definite hot spot on the circuit. Or used to be, before an oligarch steps in reshape the future of the villa.

In a bit of an attachment to Lynn Wyatt, our main subject this week, we could not let this particular story fall to the wayside. Lynn had a pretty terrible first marriage early in life to a playboy heir, Robert Lipman. After their divorce, Robert took himself on quite an international tour of travel, and so many drugs. It was in 1967, in swinging Chelsea, that Robert took more than drugs - he took the life of a young girl too, Claudie Delbarre. The manhunt and trial certainly bring to light the power and privilege of the upper crust, and a decided lack of justice too.

In this episode, Alicia follows up with some spiderwebs from the Doris Day story, and how her son Terry factors into those terrible events on Cielo Drive on August 8, 1969. Terry and his longtime girlfriend Candice Bergen lived there in a fairy tale dream in 1968, before Sharon Tate and Roman Polanski move into the home. Why did Terry and Candice move? Doris told them they must.

This one is filled with all kinds of connections throughout those days in the Hollywood Hills and beyond, with all sorts of folks chiming in on and rounding out the details of this time from Doris and Terry's point of view.

It is a special double length bonus today as we explore the life and the loves of Doris Day in this Trashy Divorces crossover!

Actress and singer Doris Day built a giant career in Hollywood on the image of the All-American Girl, a perfectly relatable Girl Next Door, virtuous and funny. It was pure spin, with Groucho Marx once quipping, “I’ve been around so long, I knew Doris Day before she was a virgin.” Doris herself chafed at the limitations of the typecasting and how utterly at odds it was to the life she was actually living. In this first part of her story, Alicia takes us through her start in show business, her first two husbands, and a whole lotta playing the field in 1950s Hollywood.

In this second half, Alicia tracks Doris Day’s disastrous marriage to Martin Melcher, and the enormous financial hole he left her in when he died at the young age of 52. There was still one more husband to go before Doris would decide she’d had enough of matrimony and turned her focus to a more deserving cause: rescuing animals.

More spiderwebs to come in tomorrow’s episode, bringing it all together!
