A podcast exploring writer Dominick Dunne's quest for justice amidst his incisive commentary of the high society set. Alicia (Trashy Divorces) leads a far ranging romp through the novels and Vanity Fair columns of one of the 20th century’s most unforgettable literary contributors. Covering courthouses and country clubs, Dunne’s voice was one for the ages, and Done & Dunne ensures that voice can continue to resonate with audiences today.
Alicia explores the odd intersection of two of her favorite fandoms: Our man Nick and the king of laid back music, Jimmy Buffett. Their connection point occurred in the late 1950s, when Dominick Dunne was casting a forthcoming show called Adventures in Paradise and handed off his business card to a handsome man he met in a coffee shop. That man was Gardner McKay, who would become a heartthrob during three seasons helming the Tiki III through shirtless adventures across the South Pacific. One future pirate that McKay inspired a young Jimmy Buffett.
