It's our last episode of 2022 and we're going out with a bang! Lora Stocker, of the Ava Gardner Museum, sits down with Samantha to talk about the woman once described as "the world's greatest animal." The pair discuss the rumors associated with her, Gardner's famous marriage with Frank Sinatra, and which movies show off her acting talents the best. We're so happy to have another year in the books!
