  • Summary

  • This is the true story of Georgia Durante, an All-American

    beauty, once named “Kodak Girl” as the most photographed

    model in the world, who moves to New York and becomes a

    Mob wife and getaway driver for the Gambino crime family.

    Then, as a means to save her daughter and escape her

    abusive marriage and criminal ties, she moves to Los Angeles

    with $7 in her pocket, reinventing herself as Hollywood’s first

    female stunt driver.

    It’s a story that’s as wildly entertaining as it is powerful and

    poignant, addressing contemporary issues through the

    incredible experiences of a beautiful, smart, tough, dynamic,

    badass woman.

    Introducing: The Godmother
    Jan 16 2024

    In the 1930s, Lucky Luciano, one of American history’s most notorious mobsters, was finally taken down by a rookie prosecutor. Eunice Carter was one of the first Black Women ever to become a prosecutor in America. She operated from the heart of the Harlem Renaissance to navigate the corrupt world of downtown Manhattan politics, and a deeply racist and sexist pre-civil rights American society. But her pioneering role in what became known as the “trial of the century” has been forgotten by popular history. Hers is the story of a writer, social worker, mother, teacher, sister, socialite, political candidate, community organizer and unheralded pioneer. This eight part immersive podcast is hosted by poet and writer, Nichole Perkins. It tells the story of Eunice Carter: a bad-ass anti-hero unafraid to bend the rules in pursuit of ambition, justice and legacy.
