Go Doc Yourself

In episode 152, the Erins are delighted to cover, "The Wolfpack," available on Amazon Prime. The Angulo family spends years locked away in the NYC apartment. Movies are the outlet for six brothers with no experience in the world beyond their front door. At 15, Mukunda decides to venture forth and leads his brothers to do the same.

In episode 151, the Erins discuss 'Temporary Color,' available on YouTube. Documentarian John Wilson is invited to cover a series of David Byrne concerts and brings the viewer along to witness. While others might focus on costuming or footage from the stage, John captures the mundane and ridiculous parts of the tour. He also has great awareness of the recent prison break of two inmates in the area!

In episode 150, the Erins long for "Lessons from a 7ft Penis & Friends," available on YouTube. Norman Nawrocki has entertained and enlightened for 20 years, while dressed as a giant purple dick. While the subject matter can be scandalous, he's Canadian and chose a comedic approach instead!

In episode 149, the Erins struggle with maturity during "The Strange Name Movie," available on Tubi. Unique names are an endless fascination. Everyone knows a person that's unforgettable for this single reason. This doc explores the perspective of the uniquely named and the parents that did this to them!

In episode 148, the Erins question everything in, "Ghosts and the Afterlife: A Scientific Investigation," available on Tubi. People have always been curious about what happens after death. You will find no answers here. Much research was done to bring this documentary together, but none of it was scientific!

In episode 147, the Erins root for "Billy the Kid," available on Tubi. Billy Price shows us what it's like to be a lovable teenage outsider in small-town Maine. He's open about struggling with love, family dynamics, and finding himself. Billy's full of youthful optimism while being remarkably self-aware. Start off your year with this sweet story!

In episode 146, the Erins ponder "Buy Now! The Shopping Conspiracy," available on Netflix. What's behind the need to constantly buy new, shiny things? Turns out its corporate greed. Marketing tactics are always getting better at removing any barriers to you buying stuff. Holiday time is especially charged, as we get ready for gift giving. Until now, there hasn't been much discussion on what happens to all the junk we make. Companies don't want you to know!

In episode 145, the Erins help you with all the etiquette in the "Garage Sale Documentary," available on Tubi. Garage sales are pretty big business that happens in small personal settings. They are celebrated for encouraging neighborly interactions and supporting local communities. If you have the time to sift through lots of stuff and haggle, you may love them!

In episode 144, the Erins magic dance for "Inside the Labyrinth," available on Tubi. This doc chronicles the making of the 1986 film, Labyrinth. What makes this almost 40-year-old move so memorable? Perhaps it's the combined vision of Jim Henson and George Lucas bringing puppets and people together on screen. Perhaps it's the endearing characters and the amazing soundtrack. Either way, David Bowie's cod piece should have received an acting credit.

In episode 143, the Erins horrify you with, "It's Florida, Man" S1E1. The inaugural episode "Toes" makes you glad you have sound decision making skills. Never have you wanted to attend a concert this badly! You know turning a quick buck on Craigslist never ends well.
