TICK TOCK IT'S CULOT O'CLOCK....AGAIN! And Gwyneth Paltrow is here? WHAT?
If you live in a city, there was a time you saw a WeWork on just about every corner. It was the co-working space where all the cook kids went to, like, make stuff and drink coffee. But who even knew the whole thing was a cult-meets-pyramid-scheme with all you can drink "summer camps" and a leader who looks like the low rent Ashton Kutcher. OH BUT THEN REAL ASHTON KUTCHER SHOWS UP. This one is ridiculous. AND WE HAVE SO MUCH TO SAY ABOUT OUR TIME WORKING AT A WEWORK. Dive in, lovelies.
FAM! WE LAUNCHED A NEW PODCAST! Check out "Murder in Alliance." It's a "Serial"-style active investigation into who killed 26-year-old Yvonne Layne in Alliance, Ohio. The murder was brutal and personal. Her ex-boyfriend, David Thorne, was convicted of the crime, but he couldn't have done it--he was two counties away at a class with several people who saw him. Host Maggie Freleng and her team of investigators--including Jason Baldwin of the West Memphis Three--are on the ground in Alliance tracking down witnesses, finding new evidence, and reporting in REAL TIME as they track down the real. Killer. Binge the first 4 episodes here!
