Jodi’s Hollywood Outsiders
-President Barack Obama joined “The Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon on Thursday’s show to “Slow Jam The News,” reviving a routine the two started four years ago.

It is thrilling and uncompromising filmmaking—clocking in at seven hours and 43 minutes—and it will make you look at the most famous murder case in United States history with fresh eyes and under a larger prism.
