Episode 251: The Mystery of the Man-Child Who Tried to Assassinate Trump

It was almost a year ago that a young man named Thomas Crooks tried to assassinate Donald Trump. Yet, all this time later, he and his motives remain essentially a mystery. Our writer Rich Cohen has been looking into Crooks’s life and death and is here with a revealing report. Then, everyone knows Burt Reynolds as the wry, handsome star of such 1970s hit movies as Deliverance. But as Josh Karp writes, Reynolds also had a dream: to open a dinner theater next to a truck stop in the middle of nowhere. And finally, if you are looking to get away to Italy this summer, you might want to check into one of our favorite places, Il Pellicano, which just celebrated its 60th birthday. Marie-Louise Sciò, the C.E.O. of this magnificent property, will join us to tell us all about what makes it so magical.
