A Pennsylvania man earned VIP status at FanDuel by wagering large sums on sports bets. He developed a ruinous gambling addiction. The company rewarded him with enviable perks — champagne, Super Bowl tickets and, we found, a personal video from Phillies star Bryce Harper.

Although I've never heard of this person I thought, “I’m always the best-dressed woman at the Acme,” she says., is the most South Philly thing ever I've come across this year.

Goes without saying (but I’ll say anyway) she looked absolutely regal. Jewels, opera coat, lions‘ mane of golden hair, perfect nails.

Went out for celebratory drinks with Harlow last night and showed her all of the wonderful things people were saying in response to the article. She's extremely touched and a little overwhelmed by the responses. "I wasn't sure if my story was interesting enough!" Lady, please. It's fascinating

Some personal news! I am in the Epstein emails (sort of)!!! In February 2019, Epstein emailed a column that I wrote about him, Trump and Trump's pal Robert Kraft to his "journalist" friend Michael Wolff. Why would he do this? I have no earthly idea. Should I be flattered?

One of the perils of the new media landscape is bosses thinking "The only way to Save Media is to double down on content I personally like and want to do anyway" but I am built different and know that readers yearn for in-depth media criticism about local magazines from @zoegberg.bsky.social.

“My initial joke was that I’m not sure how a nonprofit is going to rate the best plastic surgeons on the Main Line,” Chris Krewson said, “but we’re about to find out.”https://share.inquirer.com/iGntGE
