S23E9: Melissa Gilbert

1 September - 56 mins
Podcast Series Trashy Divorces

Melissa Gilbert grew up in front of all of our eyes playing Laura Ingalls Wilder on Little House on the Prairie, and she managed to avoid some of the pitfalls that beset other child stars. Then she met Rob Lowe, and America's Sweetheart started a whole new chapter. It's included two divorces - one trashy, one very much not trashy - and a whole lot of spiderwebs.

S25E5: Aristotle Onassis and His Lovely Ladies, Part Five | Introducing Maria Callas

S25E5: Aristotle Onassis and His Lovely Ladies, Part Five | Introducing Maria Callas

In this installment of the Trashy Onassis series, we meet Maria Callas. The opera diva had a childhood filled with awful, and then a husband who wasn't much better. By the time Maria and Aristotle begin their affair in 1959, she was a global opera superstar, and he was, as ever, a man in the business of collecting famous women. We'll see whether it was a match made in heaven (spoilers: it wasn't) next week! Want early, ad-free episodes, regular Dumpster Dives, bonus divorces, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

S25E4 Aristotle Onassis and His Lovely Ladies, Part Four | Tina Onassis Spencer-Churchill Niarchos

S25E4 Aristotle Onassis and His Lovely Ladies, Part Four | Tina Onassis Spencer-Churchill Niarchos

While Tina's marriage to Ari wasn't built to last - for so many reasons - their divorce was hardly the end of the world for her. In less than two years, the British-born Tina was walking down the aisle with a future Duke, John Spencer-Churchill, then the Marquess of Blandford. With Ari, she had craved a quieter life, and once she got it, she realized she didn't actually care for a quieter life. Still, her kids, especially daughter Christina, came to love their stepfather, a bond that would become helpful in the final tragic years of Tina's life. Her sister Eugenia met an untimely end, she would marry Eugenia's widower Stavros Niarchos, her son Alexander would die in a plane crash, and she herself would die at just the age of 45 in a Paris mansion, sparking years of conflict between Christina and Stavros.

S25E3: Aristotle Onassis and His Lovely Ladies, Part Three: Tina Livanos Onassis

When Ari finally bestirred himself to walk down the aisle, he was 40 years old and his blushing bride, Tina Livanos, daughter of yet another shipping magnate, was just 17. And he and his lifelong nemesis Stavros Niarchos had both been pursuing her for years. Luckily for both men, and unluckily for both women, Tina had a sister, Eugenia, who would become Eugenia Niarchos to her Tina Onassis. And both would find themselves married to tyrants.

S25E2: Aristotle Onassis and His Lovely Ladies, Part Two: Ingeborg Dedichen

S25E2: Aristotle Onassis and His Lovely Ladies, Part Two: Ingeborg Dedichen

After having his heart broken by an opera singer (no foreshadowing here!), Aristotle Onassis bounced back in the most Aristotle Onassis way possible: by wooing the daughter of a Scandinavian shipping magnate. Ingeborg Dedichen would play a starring role in Ari's life for several turbulent years, and later reveal the depths of physical and emotional abuse that were Ari's trademark. And of course, there was also plenty of betrayal along the way - including Ari setting his sights on a 13-year-old to be his future wife.

S25E1: Aristotle Onassis and His Lovely Ladies, Part One: Artemis Onassis and Claudia Muzio

Greek shipping magnate and globe trotting rich guy Aristotle Onassis might have been a minor figure in the minds of most Americans if he hadn't inserted himself into the American psychodrama that is the Kennedy family. But obviously, his life and riches did not begin with his courtship of the widowed Jacqueline Kennedy. His story began decades before, with a hot opera singing girlfriend and a dream - of selling cigarettes to women. Hey, everybody starts somewhere.
