| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Dun & Dun. I'm Alicia, your hostess on this podcast journey, All Things Dominic Dunn, |
| 0:06.6 | where nothing is linear and everything is connected. Investigators, it is a double drop this week |
| 0:14.3 | on Dun & Dun as we are about to weave our man Dominic into the Truman Capote episodes throughout the coming arc of the remainder |
| 0:24.6 | of our essential swans, our high society swans, and the places Truman goes. Everything really does |
| 0:32.4 | connect. In this tiny little bonus this week, I'm bringing you another Patreon not done yet episode. |
| 0:40.9 | This is actually not done yet number three. |
| 0:45.6 | This podcast journey really does connect everything. |
| 0:49.8 | I've been waiting and waiting and waiting to tell you all this story for the longest time where it kind of fits coming in. |

| 2:30.6 | in his 30s coming back to Hollywood, but there is a wonderful little excerpt that I want |
| 2:36.5 | y'all to hear and know about. This is coming from the way we lived then. And let's talk about |
| 2:42.4 | Dominic in his college years for a moment. Again, sourcing this directly from him, because it's such a delightful, delightful story. |
| 2:53.8 | In 1947, between my sophomore and junior years at Williams, I talked to my mother into letting me |
| 3:00.6 | spend the summer in Guatemala, ostensibly to learn Spanish, but I ended up spending most of my |
