58: John Dillinger Feb 10, 2024

Show notes

Humans are always looking for someone to admire. Sometimes, it’s a god, a celebrity, or someone influential from the past. I look up to Saint Dolly Parton and Eartha Kitt. During the Great Depression, there were some movie stars who garnered attention, but the real stars of the time were gangsters! We’ve learned about several of them already, but the biggest, baddest of them all was John Dillinger, the most famous bank robber in U.S. history. He not only robbed over twenty-four banks, but he also stole the hearts of the world, too…aside from maybe J. Edgar Hoover, who created a task force to find him. Let’s peer into the past and see what we can learn from the rotten & handsome man, John Dillinger.https://www.blacklabelpodcasting.com/show/rotten/

57: Roald Dahl: Roald the Rotten Feb 04, 2024

Show notes

We all know the work of Roald DahlHe gave the world characters like Willy Wonka and, my personal favorite, Matilda. But from the same mind came child killing witches and, more notoriously, Trunchbull. His writings are often accompanied with sadness suffering, and often paint women in an unflattering light, aside from Miss Honey.Let's take a peek beyond the pages of another famous children's author, and find out why his own wife dubbed him Rolled the Rotten, a more than well deserved nickname.Visit us online at: Rotten to the CoreSupport the show at http://Patreon.com/itsrottentothecore
