Synopsis:

** "How long do we have, and how much alcohol can we drink..."

Jennifer Esposito Talks Fresh Kills. The actress best known for Blue Bloods, Crash and Spike Lee's Summer Of Sam, in a conversation about growing up and making movies in a man's world - the Mafia and Hollywood. And Fresh Kills, her deeply personal latest film which she wrote, directed and stars in, about females surviving the Mafia as both a sense of place and metaphor.

** "A cynical and angry man, yes I am quite cynical when it comes to the system - and you know, things are just running through my mind..."

Bipartisan crime lords, banana hit squads, fascism, the price of chicken wings, and the US overthrowing governments all over the place - Pacifica Host Garland Nixon breaks it all down...

** "I have fasted for truth in the gardens of Babylon, and found substance in the solace of my own history..."
Arts Express Playhouse: Gates Of Toil - A Juneteenth Poem. Performed by Kataalyst Alcindor...

** "Every day the brothers went out to work. They worked not for themselves, but for the poor - wherever the overworked, the sick were to be found..."

The UK Desk: The Two Brothers And The Gold. Jack Clarke reads from the works of Leo Tolstoy.

** "What if everything you knew about the way the US economy works, was wrong. I mean everything, even what money is - this film flips the narrative on its head..."

'Finding The Money' - stay tuned and all will be revealed in this followup episode...
