On The Doc

Original Publish Date: February 21, 2022

Amarilys forgot to turn on the microphones on this episode last week so they pulled it and re-recorded it.  We're hoping to raise enough Patreon funds that maybe one day, Amarilys can go to a training class that teaches her how to press "on" and "record" simultaneously.   In any case, if you're interested in the original, it's been uploaded to Patreon.  We would love to have you over there, too!

Are you responsible for the death of someone else if you encouraged them  to take their own life?  That's exactly what happened when Michelle  Carter's boyfriend, Conroy Roy, began to contemplate ending it all.   This is a conversation about personal responsibility when mental illness  is involved.  --and a conversation about the importance of eyebrow  maintenance.  

We also discuss our own personal experiences with depression and meds.  As always, we can't help but laugh quite a bit even when talking about  such serious matters.  Life is tough.  Sometimes a laugh is exactly what  we need to get to the next moment.  Don't forget to rate and review if you like what you hear.

When you're single, you're often searching for Mr. Right and for Cecile, Simon Leviev was just the man for the job. Unfortunately, Simon was searching for love with more than just one woman and in fact, went from victim to victim as he lived a lavish lifestyle around the world on their dime.  He caused destruction as he tapped out one women and when on to the next until he met three women who would not let him get away with it.

The Tinder Swindler is streaming on Netflix.

Today, the ladies announce the launch of Off The Doc which is On The Doc's Patreon page. Head over to our Patreon page as they begin this new venture.  https://www.patreon.com/offthedoc

In this bonus episode, Misty and Amarilys take on a very serious topic:  bullying.

The episode is a departure from the regular fun and games you hear the ladies talk about but it's an important thing to discuss as it has dire consequences if not addressed.  

In this movie, your heart will break as you watch the kids be targeted through no fault of their own and you will see what pieces remain when some of them take matters into their own hands.  We see how parents, adults, and teachers have all failed these children when they came to them for help.  But when you know better, you do better and it's our hope that our little discussion in our small part of the podcasting world will be heard and make a difference when your child or student approaches you with this problem.

In the second half of the discussion, Misty gets vulnerable about her own child's experience with a bully this year.  It's hard to listen to but hopefully you will hear her heart and talk to your own children about what's been happening under our own noses.

Do you have a story about a bully?  Let us know.  We can be reached across social media platforms, email ([email protected])  or voice mail at the link below.  We would love to hear from you.  

Thanks for letting us get serious for a bit.

Bully can be streamed on Netflix or rented on Prime, AppleTV, YouTube, and DirectTV.

What happens when you're accustomed to private planes, a nanny for each of your eight children, and plastic surgery at will and then the economy crashes?  

In this week's episode, we see how the uber-rich Siegel family dealt with having to live like the common people by (GASP!) sending their children to public school, renting a car but not having a chauffeur, and flying commercial. 

Misty and Amarilys also welcome guest co-host JD Wilkins who is Misty's daughter's boyfriend.  Got that? 

As always, there's plenty of banter and even a Minnie Pearl mention.  

Enjoy and don't forget to rate and review OTD if you like what you hear!  Have a great week, friends!

Back in 2016, someone made a documentary about three lovely people who liked to raise and show chickens and all these years later, we are the beneficiaries of this work of art. 

Listen in as Misty and Amarilys talk about this documentary in between some ridiculous discussions having nothing to do with this film.  It's what they do best, after all.  Talk about nothing while still talking about everything.

As always, if you enjoy what you hear, please rate and review.  OTD is found on all major social platforms.  We always love a voice mail so click the link below and let us know what's on your mind!

Thanks for listening!

Original Publish Dare: January 9 2022 Admit it, you have an attic full of Beanie Babies and you hope to one day rule the world with the enormous amount of money you're going to get when you sell them.  Right?

This week we discuss HBO Max's new documentary about the Beanie Babies craze of the 90s and learn that if you're ever offered $100,000 for a collection of stuffed animals, you should immediately accept or be stuck with thousands of little toys that are totally worthless 30 years later.

Also, we extend a request for a million dollars from Elon Musk in the hopes he has it just laying around the house and is looking for someone to give it to.  

As always, if you like what you hear, leave us a rating/review on your platform of choice (iTunes, Spotify, YouTube, Facebook) or send us a voice or email message.  We love to hear from you!

Original Publish Date: January 6, 2022 If there was ever any doubt about Amarilys and Misty's amateur status, it's perfectly clear with this episode.  Listen in as the ladies discuss their favorites from 2021 and throw in personal stories.  --and then listen in when halfway through the recording stopped and they had to re-do it.  True story.

If you like what you hear, give the ladies a shout or leave them a good rating/review.  (iTunes, Facebook, Spotify, wherever your heart desires) They love to hear from you!

OTD can be found on all social media platforms.

Wishing you a wonderful, happy, and prosperous new year!

Original Publish Date: December 21, 2021 Imagine creating a huge conflict between yourself and every single one of your neighbors because of Christmas lights. That’s exactly what Jeremy Morris did.

Mr. Morris wielded his position as an attorney and made sure his poor wife would never have any friends again because of the way he treated the neighbors.

He also has a special affinity for sweaters and sweater vests, cotton candy robots, and camels.

How could the ladies resist talking about this doozy of a documentary? Streaming on Apple TV+, this documentary is brand new and worth the time.

Wishing all of our wonderful listeners a very merry Christmas and a happy new year? Enjoy!

Original Publish Date: December 15, 2021 We just can't quit Tiger King so here's a follow-up to last year's juggernaut quarantine documentary.  Gosh we love this train wreck.

We talk for about fifteen minutes at the beginning about absolutely nothing so if you'd rather skip that, the doc conversation really starts at or about 15:30.

Also, there's a couple of times the discussion turns a little sideways so it might be NSFW.  No cursing, just some adult subjects.  Don't judge.

Enjoy and let us know what you think, friends!

(Streaming on Netflix.)

Original Publish Date: November 16, 2021 Edith and Edie Bouvier Beale are a mother daughter team who live in a 28-room mansion in East Hampton. --and while that sounds amazing, the house was condemned at one point and now they live in only one of the rooms, is flea infested, and there are a bazillion cats and raccoons that also make the estate their home.  They also like to cook corn-on-the-cob bedside. 

The relationship between the two ladies is at the heart of what makes this documentary simultaneously compelling and a train wreck.

Misty and Amarilys attempted to video themselves and if it sounds like they had a good time, it's because they did.  If you don't like to hear them laugh, then this might not be the episode for you.

You can catch Grey Gardens on HBOMax or YouTube (for free!)

Enjoy!

As always, if you enjoyed listening to this nonsense, please leave On The Doc a review on iTunes or Facebook. It not only encourages the ladies but it also helps with rankings.

You can also find OTD on YouTube where episodes are uploaded and where Misty and Amarilys are planning to share episode videos in the near future.
