Go Doc Yourself

This week the Erins take you back with “My Old School.” In 1993, 16 year old Brandon Lee enrolled at Bearsden Academy, a secondary school in a well to do suburb of Glasgow, Scotland. What followed over the next two years became the stuff of legend. Bonus: Allan Cumming footage galore!

This week the Erins horrify with Netflix's “Capturing the Killer Nurse.” Charles Cullen is a favorite and brilliant coworker of the ICU nurses, but doubts start to mount among the staff as mysterious deaths are linked and result in Cullen's dismissal. His eventual conviction has been years in the making and the tale is truly chilling.

This week the Erins get crass with Netflix's “History of Swear Words.” Where did your favorite four letter expletive come from? We'll be happy to f*cking tell you. How did that sh*t evolve? Oh, that is totally included. Don't be a b*tch, tune in today!

This week the Erins pick through Netflix's “Devil at the Crossroads.” Guitarist Robert Johnson rose from mediocrity to mythological fame by selling his soul to the Devil. Robert may have leaned into the tale with lyrics and the lifestyle associated with the damned. His revolutionary style of playing has influenced all the guitar greats since, and he may have attained his goal of being the best.

The phrase “Call me now!” should be all the intro you need for this week's episode. The Erins reminisce on HBO Max's Call Me Miss Cleo, but you already knew that. Or you would have if you consulted your hotline psychic in the 90's for $5 a minute...

This week the Erins discuss Netflix's “Descendant.” This is the powerful story of the last known illegal slave ship and the legacy of the captives brought to America. The Clotilda is rumored to lay at the bottom of the Mobile River after being burned to hide the evidence of importing slaves after 1808, a crime punishable by death. Captives survived and kept their story close. Now it's time to bring both ship and tale to light!
