  • The Murder of Gianni Versace Part 1: Murder Is So Last Season
    2026/07/03

    The Floozies open with personal travel updates, including Ashley's "soft elopement" wedding before an Italy trip, Jen's Lisbon Filmapalooza trip with Rotten Rabbit TV (including making a short film) followed by 10 days in Paris, and Olivia's private-jet travel to an Alice Cooper concert where she reconnects with theater contacts. They then introduce the episode's topic: Gianni Versace's life and murder, discussing American Crime Story and questions about "assassination" vs murder and serial vs spree killers. Olivia outlines Versace's upbringing in Italy, his mother's tailoring influence, classical studies, founding his label in 1978, his bold aesthetic, supermodel-era runway innovations, Medusa branding symbolism, and long-term partner Antonio D'Amico. Olivia begins profiling killer Andrew Cunanan's background—elite schooling, status-obsessed fantasies, family instability, sexuality conflicts, relationships with older wealthy men, and escalating pathology after his father fled in 1988—setting up a later timeline of the 1997 killings and law enforcement missteps.

  • Marilyn Monroe, Part 2: The Bombshell, Bombshells, and Remembering Norma Jean
    2026/06/19

    Jen, Ashley, and Olivia discuss theories about Marilyn Monroe's death, separating documented facts from speculation, following Donald Wolfe's 1998 book Last Days of Marilyn Monroe. They review claims that Monroe may have been a homicide victim tied to alleged Kennedy relationships and potential political fallout, including testimony from Deputy DA John Miner suggesting drugs entered through the large intestine (possibly via enema) and questions about missing organ samples. They examine Peter Lawford's (yes, Jen gets it right this time) reported sedated phone call and contrast it with Joe DiMaggio Jr.'s later account that Monroe sounded normal, plus disputed time-of-death estimates. They highlight shifting statements by housekeeper/nurse Eunice Murray, delays in contacting police, Sergeant Jack Clemmons' discomfort with the "soldier position" and orderly pill bottles, and a broken window with contested glass patterns. They cover alternative explanations including medical negligence, accidental overdose, narrative control, intelligence monitoring, and organized crime connections, noting the 1982 DA review found no conclusive homicide evidence, and the death remains listed as "probable suicide."

  • Marilyn Monroe, Part 1: Norma Jean, the Hollywood Machine, and a Death That Still Raises Questions
    2026/06/05
    Jen, Ashley, and Olivia open their true-crime-in-entertainment podcast with personal updates and then begin a two-part episode on Marilyn Monroe, including a warning about disturbing content and an apology for misnaming Peter Lawford. Jen recaps Monroe's early life as Norma Jean Mortenson (born June 1, 1926), marked by her mother Gladys Baker's severe mental illness, foster care and an orphanage, an unknown father, and reported childhood sexual assault by a tenant. At 16 she married James Dougherty to avoid returning to an orphanage; after he joined the Merchant Marines, she was discovered modeling at the Radio Plane Company, divorced, and signed with 20th Century Fox in 1946 as "Marilyn Monroe," with a studio-driven image overhaul. They discuss her intelligence, acting study under Lee Strasberg, founding Marilyn Monroe Productions, troubled marriages to Joe DiMaggio and Arthur Miller, worsening mental health and heavy sedative use, and the contested August 4–5, 1962 timeline of her death in Brentwood, including accounts from Eunice Murray, Dr. Greenson, Sgt. Jack Clemmons, and rumors involving the Kennedys to be explored in part two. 00:00 Quick Correction and Warning 00:36 Hosts Catch Up 01:39 Kristin Chenoweth Encounter 02:56 Movie Cameo and Scheduling Chaos 08:29 Introducing Marilyn Monroe Case 11:38 Death Night Overview 12:49 Before Marilyn Childhood 17:08 Foster Homes and Abuse 27:12 Teen Marriage Escape 34:51 Brains Behind the Bombshell 41:52 Making of Marilyn Begins 44:06 Intermission and Plug 44:55 Fox Contract and New Name 47:13 Face Changes Debate 48:17 Platinum Blonde Power 49:47 Hair Color Confessions 51:57 Early Films and Playboy 53:51 Manufactured Icon Persona 57:24 Love and Marriage Tension 57:55 DiMaggio Jealousy Fallout 01:01:11 Arthur Miller Betrayal 01:10:02 Marilyn Pushes Back 01:14:02 Doctors and Drug Spiral 01:26:01 Final Day Timeline 01:28:13 Clemmons and Suspicions 01:34:04 Kennedy Theories Tease
