S17E08: Basket Case | Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Part One
We've covered the Kennedy family in some detail during the show's run, but like any sprawling dynasty, there's always more to explore! This week, Alicia brings us the back story of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the son of slain Attorney General and presidential candidate, Robert F. Kennedy. Let's just say that Bobby experienced a troubled youth, which was certainly not helped by the high profile murders his family was subjected to, or his family's effectively unlimited money and prestige.Join us Thursday, February 16, for That Trashy Show - A Valentine's Day Decompression Session!

S17E07: Bust A Move | Silent Film Titan Buster Keaton
Choosing a career in the arts is always risky, but it's not like Hollywood legend Buster Keaton had a choice. His parents, dreaming of Vaudeville success, had him on stage when he was still in diapers, and by the time he was five, young Buster was the family's breadwinner. As an artist, Buster would go on to be a pioneering filmmaker and a world-renowned comedian - as well as the ex-husband of one of America's most famous faces.Want early, ad-free episodes, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

S17E06: Closer to Free | Glenn Close
Actress Glenn Close has been a driving force in Hollywood and on Broadway for decades, and while her professional successes are nearly unmatched, her romantic life has had a far more mixed run. Alicia has all the details, from her childhood years in a cult, to her liberated experience of being an accomplished actor in her 70s today.Want early, ad-free episodes, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

S17E05: Going To California | Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page, ca. 1972
Vladimir Lenin famously observed, "There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen," and it's such a fitting statement for the long-gone era when rock & roll was young. Traveling musicians had long indulged in their share of excess, but when Jimmy Page's Led Zeppelin exploded onto the scene in 1969, they redefined what debauchery could be. At the same time, the first wave of Groupies, typified by Pamela Des Barres, was giving way to the so-called Baby Groupies, a younger cohort. Which is to say, a cohort that was far too young for the relationship Jimmy Page allegedly carried on with a fourteen year old girl. Stacie has the story, in all its trashy, day-glo, Marshall-stack tawdriness.Content note: This episode includes fairly graphic descriptions of disturbing behavior.Want early, ad-free episodes, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

S17E04: Candy | Phylicia Rashad
Alicia kicks off her exploration of Sitcom Moms with one of the greats of the genre! In the mid-1980s, Phylicia Rashad became America's favorite mom and wife with her portrayal of Clair Huxtable on the smash hit, The Cosby Show. In her real life, however, domesticity was a harder slog, and even included a few years married to one of the Village People!Want early, ad-free episodes, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

S17E03: Way Too Pretty For Prison | Todd Chrisley
Reality television stars are having a run of bad luck. Real Housewife Erika Jayne is, so far, merely fighting civil lawsuits related to allegations of fraud, while SLC Housewife Jen Shah is staring down a six and a half year sentence for bilking seniors in a telemarketing scam, but the troubles aren't confined to the Bravo universe. Over on the USA Network, Todd and Julie Chrisley have now been convicted of a sprawling financial scam and tax evasion plot - but if you know how Todd's first marriage and divorce went, you might not be entirely surprised by what he's capable of attempting.Want early, ad-free episodes, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?

S17E02: Smooth Operator | Philip Michael Thomas
Few actors typified cool in the late '80s like Don Johnson and Philip Michael Thomas. As Detectives Crockett and Tubbs on TV's Miami Vice, they were bona fide sex symbols. But Philip Michael Thomas was something else, too - a man with a messy personal life, a small zip code worth of children, and aspirations that came off as arrogance. Stacie pieces it together.Want early, ad-free episodes, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more? Join us at patreon.com/trashydivorces!SponsorsInnovative Extracts.

We've covered some doozies of divorces on this show, but today Alicia has a breakup that took years - in spite of the couple in question not being married. We're talking about actress Lorraine Bracco, whose messy split from actor Harvey Keitel made her life nearly impossible for most of the 1990s, before a little show called The Sopranos turned everything around for her.Want early, ad-free episodes, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?
