The Bombshell Effect

Kate de los Santos

Step inside Hollywood's hidden history with The Bombshell Effect, a storytelling podcast hosted by culture-obsessed writer Kate de los Santos (Playboy, Vice, The Hollywood Reporter). Each episode traces how one small moment, or one booth in a dimly lit dive bar, can spark a ripple effect that changes movies, music, pop culture, and the city of Los Angeles itself.

From Jean Harlow's scandalous nights at Chateau Marmont to Paris Hilton's paparazzi run-ins at Les Deux, The Bombshell Effect uncovers the forgotten stories, iconic landmarks, and behind-the-scenes drama that shaped Hollywood's Golden Age and beyond.

Equal parts history, gossip, and cultural critique, The Bombshell Effect is your time machine into LA's most legendary (and infamous) places. If you love You Must Remember This, Hollywood Babylon, Hollywood Plays Itself, or simply the strange magic of Los Angeles, this podcast is for you.
