Join Tom and Dominic as they discuss Marilyn's relationship to the Mafia, JFK, the Korean War and her persisting relevance today.

My dog demanded to be let outside when that intro came on.

[@ruioliveira1832]

That was a hard intro to get through... nightmare fuel, for sure :D

Robert Kennedy was shot on Marilyn Monroe's birthday.

I enjoy hearing the dialect of UK English spoken in the podcast regardless of the subject. I would like more Napoleon and French Revolution or Christianity subjects.

Heavens, Tom! Is there anything you can’t do? Loved your rendition of the iconic song!

Worst podcast in the history of podcasts and before them

[@solflower2769]

The intro was disturbing ill give you that. But mate if this is the worst podcast in history, you obviously have not stumbled across 'IMPAULSIVE' or 'JOE ROGAN PODCAST' before.
