S28E4: Bijou Phillips and Danny Masterson
23 April 2025 - 58 minsOne of the grosser stories we've lived through over the last several years is that of That 70's Show actor Danny Masterson, who has now been convicted of raping two women in 2003.

712. The Romance of Prince Rainier and Grace Kelly
The Grimaldi family was considered scandalous enough in Queen Victoria’s time that she forbade any of her close relatives to marry into it, leading Prince Albert I of Monaco to marry an American heiress in 1889 – a precedent that would matter decades later when Prince Rainier III, urged on by none other than shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis, began interviewing Hollywood A-listers for a very special role: Princess of Monaco.

711. The Grimaldi Curse | François the Spiteful and Prince Albert I
The House of Grimaldi has ruled the tiny principality of Monaco since January 8, 1297, when Francois “The Spiteful” Grimaldi disguised himself as a monk and knocked on his uncle’s castle door, launching a coup. In the violence that followed, according to legend, a woman – possibly a lover of Francois, possibly a witch he had wronged (can’t it be both?) – issued a curse that has resonated across the centuries: “Never will a Grimaldi find true happiness in marriage.” Sponsors Find the fall pieces you’ll reach for most at Quince.

710. Mia Goth and Shia LaBeouf
Today we get into the truly breathtaking story of Shia LaBeouf, who appears to split his time between being an actor and being a one-man crime wave, as well as (allegedly) a domestic abuser. He and his wife Mia Goth - and the timeline there is pretty wild, too - have recently split, while Shia himself seems to be occupying himself with all manner of poor, even criminal, behavior.

709. Frank Lloyd Wright
Alicia has the shockingly trashy story of American architectural master Frank Lloyd Wright.
