S6E2: My Heart Will Go On | James Cameron and Linda Hamilton & John Lennon and Cynthia Lennon
It’s listener request time! This week, Stacie covers filmmaker James Cameron, who spent much of his adult life engaging in something like serial monogamy and abusing the heck out of his subordinates. When he wasn’t making actors pee in wetsuits, he was marrying and divorcing in quick succession, most notably to Terminator actress Linda Hamilton. Then, Alicia puts some realism into the man, the myth, the legend, John Lennon. Turns out that the voice of a generation was pretty awful in his first marital go-round.

Still want to know what an English trifle is? It’s a British pudding (‘pudding’ can mean either a dessert, a steamed or baked dish made with suet and flour like Yorkshire pudding, or sausages made with blood – black pudding – or oatmeal – white pudding stuffed into pi intestines) which is made by layering trifle sponges, madeira cake or gingerbread sprinkled with rum or brandy (or drambuie in Scotland), then topped with fresh fruit or jam, jelly (what in America is known as ‘jello’), custard, whipped cream, and flaked almonds. What is called ‘a biscuit’ in the USA is called ‘a scone’ in the UK. What you would call ‘a cookie’ we call ‘a biscuit’. And what in Scotland ‘a cookie’ can be a rather flabby sort of sweetish finger roll filled with sweetened whipped cream.
