Happy Thanksgiving! We're off this week but we wanted to share one of our recent favorite Dateline Recaps from behind the paywall! Palm Springs, big hair, adult film stars, celebrities, and an iconic local journalist who we'd marry in a heartbeat. The gayest Dateline we've ever covered.

Dateline Season 34, Episode 3. A group of conspirators, including a self-proclaimed Nepalese prince, defraud and kill a retired art collector and legendary Palm Springs socialite in one of the longest and most expensive missing-persons investigations in California history.

Hodges and the right to same-sex marriage, but how it doesn’t necessarily set a precedent and could still be brought up again in the future.
