This week we deep dive into the story of how bisexual icon Toto Koopman went from being a world famous model to World War II spy and how a planned citywide blackout resulted in a tense Los Angeles thinking it was under attack by the Japanese. A listener email explains how the final legal breakup of The Beatles occurred at the "Happiest Place on Earth."
