Christopher Bollen on Gays Studying
Christopher Bollen’s Havoc was one of many books on my Greatest Mysteries, Thrillers, and True Crime of 2024 checklist, so I used to be thrilled to see he’d been on an episode of the podcast Gays Studying. Bollen chats with the host, Jason Blitman, in regards to the e-book, however I additionally love that it’s only a bunch of random conversations (like why does Bollen have so many robes?!) Followers of Simon Doonan will all the time benefit from the episode!

Anyhow, the movie Sing Sing—based mostly on “The Sing Sing Follies” by John H. Richardson and Breakin’ the Mummy’s Code by Brent Buell—would be the first film to be launched in film theaters and prisons on the identical time. “The movie’s groundbreaking release is a collaboration between film distributor A24, RTA, and Edovo, a nonprofit that provides incarcerated people in over 1,100 correctional facilities with free access to educational and vocational programs via tablets.
