Summary

Who’s to blame for Grey Gardens?

This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) welcomes back Kristen Meinzer and her podcasting partner Jolenta Greenberg to discuss the tragic tale of the infamous Grey Gardens Estate and the colorful characters who once owned it. They’re joined by Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early. Were Big Edie and Little Edie trapped in a codependent relationship? Could The Kennedy Curse have something to do with it? Or were they yet another victim of The Aristocracy and its elitist societal expectations?
