Episode 25 - Hilaria Baldwin + Agatha Christie
Manage episode 356697142 series 3390006
We inadvertently hit on an incredible theme of women using fake accents.
First Adam (he/him) gives us the timeline of how a Bostonian named Hillary Hayward-Thomas, raised in a home with parents who loved Spanish culture eventually became Hilaria Baldwin; wife to actor Alec Baldwin, and proven fake Spanish person. Adam takes us through every public fact that the world can't decide if they're upset over or not.
Did you know that for a couple of tense weeks mystery author Agatha Christie disappeared? Bec (they/them) tells us the real life tale that sounds like it's right out of the pages of her novels. Leaving in the middle of the night, an abandoned car on the side of the road, letters left behind. And the shocking tie between both stories? An alleged fake foreign accent. Did Agatha pull the original Gone Girl, or did something more sinister happen?
