When you think of gangsters and drug cartels, movies like Scarface, Blow, and the Godfather stand out. When we think of a drug lord we often picture an imposing dangerous figure, not a grandmother type. This week we cover the life of Griselda Blanco, otherwise known as the infamous “Cocaine Grandmother,” and mother to none other than Michael Corleone. Griselda made her mark in the Columbia drug cartels from a very early age. She was known as a ruthless criminal that many feared.

We're back to our regularly scheduled bad bitchery this week with our 60th episode celebrating the iconic Brittany Murphy. But first, we have to discuss our current dissociation tactics to survive the dumpster fire that is everything, such as White Lotus, and fellow podcasts we find solace. Apparently there was some sort of penis shaped rocket show that everyone is thoroughly distracted by, so we'll of course have to discuss that...

Brittany Murphy was once celebrated widely in Hollywood for her talents and bubbly demeanor. But just as quickly as her star power skyrocketed it seemed to slip right through her fingers after a series of professional and romantic setbacks that placed her heavily under the scrutiny of tabloids and Hollywood gossip columns. Her sudden death in December of 2009 shocked Hollywood and confuses her fans and web sleuths to this day, was Brittany Murphy’s life ended on purpose or was this truly a preventable illness gone wrong?

Our 56th episode is for the tree huggers and environmentalists! This week we learn the story of Julia “Butterfly” Hill, who hiked 2 miles up a mountain and an additional 180 feet up a Redwood tree named Luna to save it from the Pacific Logging Company. She remained in Luna for a total of 738 days, withstanding inclement weather, and increasingly violent loggers. Eventually coming to an understanding with the logging company Butterfly was able to humanize herself and the environmentalist movement in the eyes of those meant to clear cut the forests for the profit of the 1%.

We just can’t stop bitching. We totally forgot to mention the most important part of the Super Bowl Halftime show. But first we have a quick update about the Corrections Officers strike in New York, as well as some important information regarding Luigi Mangione and the absurd example they are making of him to the public.
