Its yours truly on the mic. get to know the prinxess Explicit Second Story Work The Novel Josh Cybulski Josh Cybulski’s debut novel explores a generation who were told they could do anything. Some did, and without a doubt still are, and some became disillusioned at the first signs of adversity. Meet Sarge, Messy, Hecky and R-Luv, four media school grads who head towards the booming film industry in Vancouver. Art is a distant memory as they pursue North Hollywood lights and their spoils of sex, drugs, and, let’s face it, more drugs. But, good luck turns bad in Second Story Work as these young men scramble to sustain whetted appetites that they could never satisfy. Cybulski’s gritty tale is one of crime, betrayal, and moral apathy, where the difference between friend and foe is blurred line after line. Explicit Killing Time The Podcast Pamela K. Browne and Cynthia Fagen Our series debut is based on the disappearance and murder of wealthy Connecticut mother of five Jennifer Farber Dulos. Jennifer’s parents were well known in New York City’s philanthropic circles and her aunt and uncle created the Liz Claiborne fashion empire. She turned down a promising writing career in Hollywood and Broadway to marry a Connecticut luxury home builder and raise a family. The shocking case is still making headlines as Jennifer’s body has still not been found. Her estranged husband, Fotis Dulos, was considered the prime suspect in the case. Fotis’ alleged accomplices, former lover, Michelle Troconis and his lawyer, Kent Mawhinney, are currently facing criminal charges in Connecticut, including conspiracy to commit murder. Both have pleaded not guilty. Pamela K. Browne and Cynthia Fagen are award-winning investigative journalists who have uncovered startling new details in this ongoing and tragic story of love, betrayal, greed and ultimately murder.
