A Good Podcast About Bad Relationships. Every Wednesday and Sunday, Alicia and Stacie take you on a comedic ride through stories of marital misconduct and love gone wrong, blending biography, pop culture, history, and politics. "It’s one part Vanity Fair meets Town & Country, one part country music song—and an all-around good time." - The Atlantan. "Enjoying the juicy details of other people’s relationships is having a moment." - Sunday Times Style Magazine (UK). "When this shameless show about bad relationships kicks off with astrological analysis of the couplings discussed in the episode, you know it’s going to be a party." - AV Club
In Part Seven of the Aristotle Onassis and His Lovely Ladies series, we open with the Bouvier Sisters, Jacqueline Kennedy and Lee Radziwill, taking a little R&R on Onassis’s yacht, the Christina. What was a quiet trip turns into mayhem, scandal and controversy for the sisters, their husbands, their lovers and their family too.
How do we get from this getaway girls’ trip to the engagement of Jackie and Ari just a few years later? This episode gives you all the details, with some surprising spiderwebs too.

This week, in the sixth in our series of Aristotle Onassis and His Lovely Ladies, the ladies are plentiful. Maria Callas is full in love with her Aristo, but she is not the only lady in Aristotle’s life. He does frequent brothels and will begin an affair with Princess Lee Radziwill – both enrage Maria. Also included, so many spiderwebs – Prince Rainer, Richard Burton, JFK, Marilyn Monroe, and Elsa Maxwell all make an appearance. But no one comes faster at Onassis than Lee’s sister, The First Lady, Jacqueline Kennedy.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

The Duncan Hines brand is probably as close to a universally beloved product as we get here in the States, but for most of the real life Duncan Hines's seven decades prior to the baked goods thing, no one could have anticipated that outcome. Born in 1880, he came of age in the new era of automobiles, and as a traveling salesman, he developed a habit that would make him an icon of the era: he took meticulous notes about the little roadside eateries he encountered as he traversed the nation in the first decades of the 20th century. Often, he was accompanied by one of his three wives as he eventually built a little publishing empire, and then a successful branding and licensing enterprise that has been gifting Americans with delightful baked goods for the better part of a century.
