Summary
This week, we hear the story of a wealthy, eccentric woman who raced speedboats, had affairs with Hollywood's hottest actresses, bought a private island, and had a doll best friend who was cremated with her. This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 07:03 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
