Hello, I've got something a little different in the feed for you that I think you're going to enjoy.

Today, we're featuring an episode from a podcast called Hollywood Land, from Jake Brennan, host of the award-winning Disgraceland podcast.

Hollywoodland explores the lives of our most celebrated actors and actresses through the true crimes that have

most impacted them. David Lynch and the real-life brutal murder that inspired Twin Peaks,

Steve McQueen's brush with Charles Manson. The three conspiracies surrounding Marilyn Monroe's

death, Dennis Hopper's easy writing and excessive 70s Hollywood,

the obsessive murder of Dorothy Stratton.

And today, I've got an episode for you about the indecent arrest of John Waters.

The films of John Waters were so nasty, so shocking, and so subversive, that none other than William S. Burroughs called him the Pope of Trash.

But from John Wander's beginnings in X-rated art films to cult classics like Hairspray and Cry Baby,

John Wonders created and cultivated his own peculiar niche in film, while nurturing a legendary

troop of players, who became a family of outcasts. Stay right here for the full story.

Hollywoodland is a production of Double Elvis.

This is a story about John Waters, a man whose films were so nasty, so subversive,

that author William Burroughs called him the Pope of Trash. John Waters was arrested for

indecent exposure while making his first movie. His breakthrough film features a scene where the

lead character literally eats. Well,

we'll get to that later. After starting with X-rated art films, John Waters would eventually

score cult hits with movies such as Hairspray and Crybaby. Smuggling his outsider ideals into

family-friendly fare, thanks to a close circle of collaborators and scorching

soundtracks stuffed with R&B in early rock and roll.

Great films.
