Episode 9: The Ghost of Shauna Grant
We return to the Valley, and it looks a whole lot different this time around.
If you thought you knew the Traci Lords story… think again.

This honestly gets better and better…. just when I thought I understood the truth about what happened, the story takes a left turn and offers a completely different perspective. The layers of narrative are so impressive, and the characters… Please don’t end!
Another brilliant ep. Genius.
Will be interesting to re-read the old Nora K fanzine and re-visit all the pre-internet speculation. Maybe she’s mellowed With age but I can see this podcast hitting a nerve.
I enjoyed the episode, but the title was misleading. Shauna Grant was barely mentioned. I understand the connection, but Nora Kuzma was unique, even though she broke legal and moral laws. I dislike her decisions, but there was no one like her before or after. To be fair, my view of NK has changed, if slightly, over tithe course of your podcast.
When Einstein died, scientists considered how different the world would have been without his knowledge and research.
And damn it, the history of the adult industry would be poorer without The Rialto Report… impoverished in fact!
History preserved, history restored.
