Is she a second-wave feminist nightmare dressed like a daydream? And what led to her downfall? Marisa Meltzer, the author of Glossy: The Inside Story of Glossier, joins us.

May 23, 2024 JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette: 25th Anniversary of the Plane Crash
Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, the style icon known for her 90s minimalist aesthetic, died with her husband John F Kennedy Jr. in a plane crash in 1999. Her style was so timeless that today, everyone on TikTok wants to dress like her. But the woman is a cypher; she was endlessly photographed by paparazzi but no recording of her voice exists. Why are we still fascinated by Carolyn Bessette and JFK Jr? Glynnis MacNichol, author of I’m Mostly Here to Enjoy Myself, joins us to discuss the couple’s legacy and the role they play in our cultural imagination.

This week, Vanessa talks to John McDermott — the journalist who broke the Jay Shetty story — about the blurred lines between authentic spiritual experience and the manufactured appeal of "McSpirituality".

April 29, 2024 Presenting *The Competition*
Every summer for the past seven decades, 50 high school seniors—one from every state—descend on Mobile, Alabama to take part in one of the country’s most lucrative scholarship competitions for teen girls.
The Competition takes you behind the scenes of the Distinguished Young Women (DYW) program, and follows seven girls as they experience the highs and lows of competing for two weeks, away from home and under the most high-stress circumstances. Some girls enter for the money, some for prestige. All of them are used to being the best and the brightest. But only one will walk away with the top prize.
Host Shima Oliaee (Dolly Parton’s America, Pink Card) was Nevada’s contestant in 2001. More than 20 years later, she returns to Alabama as a judge. What can two weeks with 50 of the country’s most ambitious teens tell us about girlhood in America?
Listen to The Competition on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts. You can binge all episodes early and ad-free right now on Wondery+. Join Wondery+ in the Wondery App or on Apple Podcasts. Start your free trial by visiting http://wondery.fm/TC_Infamous now.

April 18, 2024 College Part 2: How the Rich and Famous Do It
As some students hear back from colleges this spring, Vanessa and Natalie dig deeper into the admissions hysteria, obsession, and scandal. The Varsity Blues case might have cracked open an illegal underworld of corrupt deals—but there are plenty of perfectly legal ways privileged parents bend the system to their will. Think test prep, tutors, and college coaches who charge hundreds of thousands of dollars to text kids reminding them to turn in their math homework. Today, Vanessa talks to Sarah Bernstein, playwright, college essay writing coach, and author of the New York Times story, “Elite College Admissions Have Turned Students Into Brands.”

April 11, 2024 College Part 1: Felicity Huffman’s Desperate Crime
In 2019, a case called Varsity Blues cracked open college admissions, revealing a nexus of corrupt athletic coaches and celebrity parents willing to spend hundreds of thousands to guarantee their children spots at top schools. At the center of the scandal was a shady, smooth-talking con-artist named Rick Singer, primed to take advantage of parents’ insecurities, fears, and ambitions for their children. In this episode, Vanessa talks with Eric Rosen, the prosecutor in the Varsity Blues case, about the juicy details—from finding Singer to wire tapping his phone—and reflects on what this case tells us about U.S. colleges and the admissions process today.
