In Episode 557: Hollywood’s Glamorous Underbelly, we get into the concealed facets of Hollywood, exposing its mysterious and often dangerous underbelly. This marks our third recording with Glenn, and he doesn't hold back, entertaining us with riveting tales of the Italian Mafia's influence and the eccentric world of Motown personalities, all within the epicenter of Tinseltown. As Glenn opens up further, we're granted a glimpse into the lavish parties where cocaine flows without restraint and bizarre rituals are employed to manipulate and mold artists. Our hearts ache as we explore the devastating toll of addiction, something that has tragically claimed the lives of numerous gifted musicians, including one who was close friends with Glenn. We also shed light on the disconcerting practice of sexual exploitation and blackmail that has cast a long, dark shadow over the entertainment industry for years, with the Harvey Weinstein scandal serving as a chilling example. And, yes, we also get into the amazing green portal that Glenn managed to capture on camera on his property.
