Source: AP Betty Broderick, who was convicted of second-degree murder for the killing of her ex-husband and his new wife in 1989, has passed away of natural causes at the age of 78.  Broderick's case became a national sensation when details of her marriage and messy divorce from her ex-husband, Dan Broderick, came to light. The two were originally married in 1969 and went on to have four children. Betty worked and supported her family while Dan went to medical school and then law school, eventually becoming a successful medical malpractice attorney. In the early 1980s, Dan began an affair with Linda Kolkena, who was his legal assistant. Betty grew suspicious and erratic, with Dan eventually filing for divorce in 1985. Dan and Linda married quickly after the divorce was settled, and Betty moved to a new home with the pair's children.  Betty continued to harass Dan and Linda, breaking into their home and leaving threatening voicemails on their answering machine. Betty was jailed...

Sometimes it feels like things are happening too fast, that the news cycles are accelerating before we can even process what happened in the first place. But you owe it to yourself to take it easy. You deserve it! Look, whether it's 1966 or 2026, lots of stuff's been going on, but we'll weather whatever the world has to throw our way, we always do. And speaking of...in 1966 the Oscars were televised in color for the first time , as well as the first and only color episode of the original Perry Mason series, "The Case of the Twice-Told Twist:"  I've never drag-raced (or raced in drag). I'd much rather take a nice leisurely drive along the shore in this '66 Thunderbird. There's some things you just can't hurry--the Supremes know what I mean: Happy Open Post, darlings!

Credit: A24/EW This August, A24 will be releasing their biopic on Anthony Bourdain. Tony , which is directed by Matt Johnson, and is expected to focus on Bourdain's early culinary experiences in 1976 during his time in Provincetown, Mass.  Dominic Sessa, who rose to fame after his breakout role in The Holdovers,  will play young Bourdain. Other stars on the cast include Antonio Banderas, Emilia Jones and Rich Sommer. This kind of biopic seems like something Bourdain would probably not approve of. But you can't tell that to Hollywood! Will you be checking out Tony this summer?  Credit: World of Reel

Greetings music lovers, and welcome to another edition of Manor Music Monday, this entry being, I hope, a brassy antidote to the mess that has become The Met Ball, or the East Coast's most famous Jerk Parade, tonight with Extra Jerk and Tupperware Titays (with apologies to dearly departed Tupperware). Can anything work to counter this gory dumpster fire of tacky, mess and blurgh? DJ Li'l Scratch believes so, and tonight at the Manor's exclusive after hours club, "Huh? Wha? I'll Have That With Sloppy Oral," he'll by spinning delicious tunes by a brassy singer you're guaranteed to be delighted by. Yes, it's Miss Toni Fisher, a performer who's giving us serious "growl, snarl, snap" above. Don't mess with Miss Toni amirite? Her time in the spotlight was brief. She was a Hollywood nightclub singer for only five years, recorded just one LP - 1960's "The Big Hurt" - and scored only two Top 40 hits, the first one being ...

John Lewis marched and bled so The Voting Rights Act could become law. Hundreds more died. But John Roberts and his largely racist, Republican Supreme Court have destroyed Lewis' legacy - and demolished The Voting Rights Act.   American democracy may never recover. This is not hyperbole. Years ago, when Roberts was about to be appointed to the Supreme Court, Lewis warned us:  "Under Roberts, I feel that the leadership of the Court will promote politics over the protection of individual rights and liberties. Roberts may be a brilliant lawyer, but I wonder whether he can really understand the depth of what it took to get the Voting Rights Act passed. The right to vote is precious, almost sacred. It is the most powerful non-violent tool we have in a democratic society. Roberts's memos reveal him to be hostile towards civil rights, affirmative action and the Voting Rights Act. He has even said that Voting Rights Act violations, and I quote, 'should not be made too easy to ...

If you were tiny in the 1970s, 80s or early 90s, you were likely subjected to "Dynamite," a tacky-ass free magazine distributed to elementary school kids nationwide starting in kindergarten, as well as at children's doctors offices, or really any place with which to reach a pre-teen audience. Why tacky-ass? Because it was essentially a massive nationwide free advertising vehicle, which pushed the likes of "Shields and Yarnell," for example, a sub-par network variety show starring married mime performers. And really, who else would give this forgettable Vegas act a nationwide magazine cover but "Dynamite," much less the here today/gone tomorrow actor who played Juan on "Welcome Back Kotter?" I said what I said.  The magazine also included half-hearted  tricks, games and contests, but the focus was mostly on what was later called "advertorial content." Again, this was distributed in elementary schools. When it wasn't trying to pu...
