Dude, That's F****d Up

Did you know the phrase "pay to play" originated from a literal terrestrial radio scandal where record labels bribed disc jockeys?! Erin and Nicole discuss the timeline-altering Payola Scandal of 1960, the problematic motivations of said scandal, and close the episode out with some *light and impromptu* Billy Joel slander (apologies to any BJ fans). **This episode is sponsored by MagicMind, the world's first productivity drink!

Psychics and/or mediums claim to be able to see the future or talk with the deceased, which is why psychics have offered their services to detectives investigating high-profile crimes. And yet, no psychic has ever been credited with cracking a case? Fascinating. Erin and Nicole tried to do some research into the use of psychics and detective work, but there isn't a lot of evidence to suggest they've ever been helpful. Still, it gives us all a chance to walk down memory lane, and revisit the absolute grifter that is the late Sylvia Browne!

As a nonprofit organization founded for good, PETA sure is accused of being bad. Erin and Nicole discuss the origins of People for the Ethical Rights of Animals (PETA), their radical forms of direct action and out-of-touch marketing campaigns, and some other sh*t you could probably read on your own, but that sounds boring.

California just had a $1.3B Mega Millions Jackpot winner and *spoiler alert* it wasn't Erin or Nicole. This week, our dudes talk a little about the history of the state lottery, discuss if they believe in the "lottery curse," and have some questions about the people who have won and donated it all (e.g. what's the point?!). **This episode is sponsored by Magic Spoon Grain-free Cereal!

Actually, Erin and Nicole will only go streaking under strict terms, and after they've done some personal grooming. Since they have no previous experience with running naked in public, they're discussing the history of streaking and some of the most famous global streakers of all time!   **This episode is sponsored by Magic Spoon Grain-free Cereal!

Splashin' of the Christ! Can you imagine a worse theme for a park than "Christianity?" Me either, but there have been tens of water and amusement parks in that very genre, which proves yet again, there's no accounting for taste. Erin and Nicole discuss the most popular religious theme parks in the U.S, their current operating condition, and who on earth (or in Heaven) might want to go there?!   **This episode is sponsored by Magic Spoon Grain-free Cereal!

In a genre for women, by women, only one man has has crossed party lines to join the highest ranks of the Romance Genre: Fabio. Erin and Nicole discuss the life of the ultimate Italian Stallion, his role in the popularity of the literary genre, and a wild goose chase that could have cost Fabio his livelihood (and his life)!

There's plenty of evidence to suggest Academy Award Winner Jared Leto sucks, but is he a cult leader? Erin and Nicole debate whether or not the lead singer of 3STM (aka 90s heartthrob Jordan Catalano) is problematic in a creepy, controlling, religious way, or just problematic in a creepy, controlling, non-religious way. He's a method actor, so you know there's some stank on him. *ANNOUNCEMENT* We have new merch! Head over to the link below to shop some cool, new sh*t and rep the pod!
