Murders. Overdoses. Suicides. Assaults. This was the face of Hollywood's Golden Age before the Doom Book took over the scene...

It was the one list you didn't want to be on. Decades before McCarthy, there was William H. Hays and the Doom Book, a list that destroyed the careers of some of Hollywood's most gifted...and most scandalous.

In this episode, we're talking the Hays Code, the rape and murder of Virginia Rappe, and Hollywood's most salacious controversies.

What was pre-code Hollywood really like? What did we lose in the aftermath? It's a story as twisted as Fatty Arbuckle's 3 back to back murder trials, and it's all here in this episode of Scandal Queens.
