    Dec 23 2025

  • A Con So Nice, He Named Himself Twice: Lord Gordon Gordon

    A Con So Nice, He Named Himself Twice: Lord Gordon Gordon
    Dec 18 2025

    A man who called himself Lord Gordon Gordon sure knew how to con 'em. He scammed jewelers, land owners, and railroad magnates with great alacrity on both sides of the Atlantic. But in the hierarchy of criminals, the robber barons generally come out on top, and Gordon Squared just didn't anticipate that.

  • The Love Triangle of Frank Sinatra, Howard Hughes and Ava Gardner

    The Love Triangle of Frank Sinatra, Howard Hughes and Ava Gardner
    Dec 16 2025

    Frank Sinatra and Ava Gardner had one of the great love affairs of the last century. But it was actually a love triangle that included the famously-reclusive Howard Hughes. It gets wilder than that –– their love rivalry lasted decades and involved the mafia and the CIA. In fact, the dynamic forever changed Las Vegas and even ended the Rat Pack Era. This one is a wild midcentury tale... and 100% criminally ridiculous!
