143. Six Degrees of Robert Evans | The Kid and The Cotton Club Murder
This week in our continuing journey of the Six Degrees of Robert Evans, we take The Kid into the fabulous 1980s, which weren’t quite so fabulous at all for him. Busted for a cocaine possession, and his reputation ruined, Evans is then fueled with an obsession of bringing The Cotton Club to the screen. That is all before the murder of Roy Radin in 1983, which connects into it all, although it will take almost a decade to see justice for that crime, and Robert’s name to be cleared.

Listen Now: Even The Royals
Admit it: you’re obsessed with royal families – watching them, gossiping about them, wanting to be them. It’s the stuff of fantasy. But for real life royals, the crown jewels can be more like shiny handcuffs. There are expectations and rules – and if you break them, the consequences are big, and very public. And no, we’re not just talking about Harry and Meghan. There are royal families and wild royal tales from around the world and throughout history that you have never heard before. From Wondery comes a new podcast called Even the Royals that will take you inside the cloistered world of royal families, past and present, where wealth and status often come at the expense of your freedom – and maybe even your life. This is just a preview of Even the Royals. Listen to the full episode wherever you get your podcasts, or at Wondery.fm/eventheroyals_doneanddunne. Learn more about your ad choices.
