    Impeccable storytelling!
    Just found this podcast and I’m listening to the episodes about the Rockefellers! (typo in my other review I got it mixed up with another show about the Gabor’s!) great podcast!

    Amateurish
    Poor reading by the host with mispronunciations galore. The host’s voice is a sleeping pill.
  • -so sick of it
    Not worth it
    Used to like this pod a lot, but injecting your political view into every subject has turned me off. I wanted entertainment not a lecture
  • crimeo
    Well written and scripted
    So glad I discovered this podcast albeit a bit late. Binging episodes and can’t wait for more. Had the pleasure to meet and hear Dominick speak in West Hartford Conn., and just finished reading his son’s book… truly extraordinary and this podcast keeps his voice alive.

    Why would you bring Stacey and her unintelligent angry political nonsense over to Dunne?? She is awful and the main reason I only listen to this pod and none of the trashy ones. Get her out of here.... noone wants passive aggressive angry commentary to poison this show too!!! Nooooo!
  • SabsP
    Too caught up
    I love Alicia’s other podcasts, but with this one, it’s just not fun. There’s no fact checking and hardly any editorial, it’s just parroting of Dunn’s work, which is very unsympathetic to the Menendez Brothers. Considering how the case has rehashed lately, it’s disheartening that this old point of view is receiving so much more press today, when the abuse has not.

    Well worth your time
    What a delightful discovery!

    Bravo
    Alicia is a wonderful narrator and does her homework. I was fortunate to meet Mr. Dunne many times and I believe he would be proud of this podcast-Meghan

    Compelling, Well Researched & Great Podcast Host!
    I can’t decide if I like D&D or her other show, Trashy Divorces, more!
  • Natalie Westbrook
    unexpected
    I love old Hollywood stories, and happens upon this podcast while looking up Capotes Swans. After listening to all of the episodes I was hooked. I started at the beginning and am now binging my way though all of them. Wonderful show 🌟🫶🏼

    No more home
    I like the podcast a lot but am turning it off because of the misuse of the word home. A house is a structure and home is a generalized place that can be anything from a bird’s nest to a tent to an estate. It’s not correct to keep referring to specific structures as “homes.” It sounds affected and silly. That’s all.

  • BanjoGrey
    Such a joy, research top notch, presentation wonderful.
    I’ve been listening to Alicia for a couple of years. She’s outdone herself on Truman Capote’s Swans. Some of us are deep diggers once we latch onto a topic, we become obsessed! The episode about the B&W Ball in NYC gave me info I didn’t find anywhere else. Congratulations on introducing me to Dominic Dunn’s life and times. It really is a “spiderweb” of show business, politics, gossip, true crime, and human behavior.

    What?
    Wanted to love this podcast but I just spent an 1 1/2 hour listening to quotes. ?? Come on
  • readinginthesouth
    Perfect!
    I could listen to Alicia read the back of a cereal box! Every episode is fascinating and riveting. So glad I discovered this wonderful podcast!
  • MyFeedback2U
    This is phenomenal!
    Moving thru every episode at lightening speed. How am i only discovering this epic podcast. The content and host are top tier podcasting. Love, love, love this.
  • Kimberleyamyers1114
    I had no idea
    Because of my age, I really knew nothing about Dominick before he began writing for Vanity Fair and covering high profile trials drawing attention to victims’ families, in part due to the tragic murder of his own daughter. He’s really lived multiple lives; rubbing elbows with Hollywood elite, New York society, and the aristocracy of the US & beyond. His privileged, yet sad upbringing gave him a front row seat at many of history’s greatest societal events. His feeling of unbelonging led him on a trajectory to find his own way. He’s had the highest of highest and lowest of lows. One thing for sure, there’s not a boring moment anywhere in this podcast. The host, Alicia has the most captivating voice and retells the stories of Dominick’s life and reads many of his own works with all the emotions that just leave you hanging on every word and salivating for more.

    Great content here, thanks!
  • CPA 53
    I Tried
    I was so intrigued by the swans, after finding the Feud series on FX. Was happy to find this podcast. I stayed with this narrator through the weird emphasis on random words, the fake giggling and the mispronunciations. She took me out after calling him “Robert Fitzgerald Kennedy.” The final straw. Bye bye, Alicia.
  • ELMommie
    A gem
    This podcast slaps y’all! Great writing, fun stories, soothing voice. I’ve dearly missed the old days of tearing into the new issue of VF in hopes of finding a Dunne piece. This pod fills that hole in my life. Love the energy of the crossover episodes too.
  • am oh fb
    A great podcast!
    I can’t believe this fabulous podcast exists. I thought I was the only one going down this rabbit hole of fascinating characters. It’s like Alicia has seen my internet history and library record! Well done!
  • atelier_katherine
    Fascinating content
    But I just can’t take the delivery. If I hear huzzah one more time.
  • NappyDresser
    I’m Down for All Things Dunne!
    Thanks for your interesting research about a great man!
  • BonBon2214
    Happy Bday to Me
    Valentine’s Day is my birthday! So, this must be meant just for me! But y’all can listen too. So excited!!! UPDATED: This podcast is the gift that keeps on giving. Alicia really knows how to dish out the juiciest details and always comes with receipts! And with D. Dunne, it’s a perfect match!
  • Oh Lauren
    Love love love it
    I was always a huge fan of PP&J and I’m a big fan of the Trashies too, so it’s only natural that I’d love this podcast. I regret not knowing about it sooner, as I have a terrible habit of never listening to ads. But I must’ve been extra alert the day I heard the girls on Trashy promote this podcast. So glad! ox
  • GPSnark
    If you cannot speak a single extemporaneous sentence, move away from the mic pls
    I downloaded several episodes the other day because the content looked phenomenal. Am six minutes in to the first and it’s basically unlistenable. Speak all the consonants, drop the colloquial/vernacular, stop doing that weird elementary-school teacher stuff thing with the teeny PAUses on random words. What a waste of good content. How do these people release podcasts without listening to themselves on playback.

    Holy cats!! 🙀 Interest renewed!
    When I was younger I watched Power, Privilege & Justice and knew what had happened to Dunne’s daughter. Other than that, I never really knew much about him and certainly not his previous Hollywood life. I am fascinated by this podcast and the stories it tells, the stories you tell, the little sidetracks of bits of interesting information. I’m searching out his shows again on Roku. I am sharing episodes of this podcast to my friends. Watching his After The Party “documentary” right now. Thank you for your storytelling. It’s caught me deep in its web. I found you guys on Trashy Divorces and then discovered this one. Next I’ll travel down the Trashy Royals road. I’m just taking my leisurely time so I don’t run out of episodes any time soon. ~Winona J.
  • yodster
    This is the BEST discovery yet for me
    This Podcast is the best of both worlds. I absolutely love Truman Capote and the mess of a man he was, as well as Dominic Dunne. He was an amazing man I had to fortune of meeting in 1988 while he was on a press tour and I was an Intern at the local PBS station he was being interviewed at. The way you put these tales together are so great and easy to listen to. Thank you for all your effort! A for Podcast!
  • hollylynk
    Thank you!
    I absolutely love this podcast! Dominick Dunne & Truman Capote are 2 of my favorite writers. I’ve had a Vanity Fair subscription since the 80’s! Thanks for recommending the Gerald Clark biography “Capote.” You’re right… great summer read! I adore you Alicia… you are just brilliant! And I have a suggestion. Just finished this book… Pretty juicy! Nemesis: The True Story of Aristotle Onassis, Jackie O, and the Love Triangle That Brought Down the Kennedys Book by Peter Evans Cheers… Holly, Santa Cruz CA. 😎

    “Holy cats,” it’s Melvin Belli, not Marvin Belli.
  • Not an Fan
    Easy Listening
    My favorite part of this podcast is how much the host Alicia truly enjoys telling these stories. Tales of the rich, famous and naughty intermixed with gold diggers, wanna bees and desperate characters!
  • AmyBethK
    My favorite podcast
    This is the best. The content is fascinating and Alicia’s voice is incredible. Where might I share a photo of our man Dominick. Also I was re-watching the glorious Swing Time the other night and Fred Astaire’s character exclaimed “Holy cats!”
  • lkulm
    Love it!!!
    Hello Alicia, I just found this podcast by mistake and what a treasure!!!! I’ve always been a huge Dominick dunne fan so I’m really loving this, thank you very much💜
  • Amÿ
    More Than Dominick Dunne
    This podcast is wonderfully researched, written and presented. I started listening because I was a Dominick Dunne fan but it’s about SO much more. Like Alicia says, so many spider webs.

  • Angela M. Sharp
    Favorite podcast ever
    I have loved Dominic Dunne since my mother introduced me to his books in the 1990s. This is my favorite podcast ever. I will listen to it over and over again. I find myself wishing I could rewrite certain portions of his life and even though I know how they turned out somehow while Alicia is telling the story, I have my fingers crossed, hoping that it might turn out differently. But other than that, so entertaining.
  • ARN!!!!!!
    Hooked from the getgo.
    I’m so glad I didn’t find this podcast when it was being made because I wouldn’t of been able to binge listen.

    I love all things Dominic Dunn! I enjoy all the episodes! Stacy you and I love the same things!Stacy you are an amazing podcast host. I get immersed in your narration and I hang on every word that you say! Thank you for your hard work and making this podcast so personal and entertaining! You always leave me wanting more!
  • Beccslee
    Where have you (and this podcast) been all my life?!
    For someone who routinely bereaves the loss of the golden age of celebrity and the halcyon days of the fashion and celebrity magazine, this podcast appeared to me as if from the gods. I love how the host cuts right to the chase and digs into the story, and when side comments are in fact made (as in the Dominique Dunne trial coverage) they are warranted and incredibly poignant. I am obsessed with this podcast and savor each episode!
  • levibleu
    So fun
