Fixate Today, Gone Tomorrow

This week, Nikki had the pleasure of appearing on The Leaving Eden Podcast to discuss her theories about JP Miller's theology. Nikki spoke with Sadie and Gavi quite a bit about JP's book, Hell? No! Today's bonus episode is the audio from our YouTube video about the book.

Death of the Pastor's Wife

We'll be back next week with an episode on Grey Gardens! You cannot be sloshed at five-fifteen!

Thank you for letting us take a week off! Life kept life-ing last week for both of our families, but we're back with part two of Ted Kennedy.

On today's episode, we talk about Ted Jr's cancer battle, Ted's position in the US Senate, Kara's death, and the tragic life Joan Bennett Kennedy found herself in upon marrying into the Kennedy family.

New episode, new Kennedy! Today we talk about the baby of the family, Ted Kennedy. Months after the death of his brother, Ted nearly died in a plane crash. And then, we talk about Chappaquiddick and the tragic death of Mary Jo Kopechne.

Let's wrap up our discussion about the conspiracy theories around the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy.

On this bonus episode, Nikki discusses the similarities in the abuse Michelle Hadley, whose story is featured in Netflix's A Toxic Love Story, experienced with her ex-fiancee Ian Diaz, and what Mica Miller recounted in her journals and to friends and family about her marriage and the abuse that her estranged husband, John-Paul Miller, allegedly inflicted on her.

We are getting into the JFK of it all. When Nikki wrote the scripts for the JFK episodes, she planned on four episodes. Welp, we already had to make the first episode into a part one and part two. Sure, there's a ton of info and theories and whatever, but the length is more likely because JOY'S BACK!

In part one of part one of the JFK episodes, we talk about Jack and Jackie's wedding, the babies they lost, and Jack's compulsive sexual behavior with women, even in the White House.
