It's Dr. Erin everyone and I don't know about yinz, but this month felt like a decade or two. I'm happy to see the end of February and I've got a great list for my Friyays to show for it. Let's Learn About Black Art Though I am...
Join us as we take a look back on The Crown, season 4 as a whole. First, Dr. Erin shares a recap of the season, which follows the royal family through the 1980s, then we dive into what we liked and what we really didn't...
We made it to the end of season 4! Phillip is the surprise MVP of episode 10, ‘War,’ which features a deluge of inter-family drama and conflict. Immaturity, self-obsession, and petulance seem to be the watchwords of this episode, from Thatcher's graceless exit to Charles'...
A hard sit today, with episode 9, 'Avalanche.' While we continue to be delighted with Anne, the final breakdown of Charles and Diana's marriage is difficult to watch, as everyone involved struggles with both communication and understanding.

Today we discuss the mixed bag that was season 4, episode 8, '48:1.' We are left with a lot to talk about, from the history of South Africa's apartheid regime and the Commonwealth reaction, to the feud between the Queen and Margaret Thatcher, to the...
In short, we really disliked Episode 7 'The Hereditary Principle.' We have loads of critiques about the timeline of events, the focus on Margaret, and the fact that we learned nothing we didn't already know in the development of these stories and characters. We also...
We're on to the second half of Season 4 of Netflix's 'The Crown' and we're back to the Charles and Diana show. 'Terra Nullis' gives us some fabulous insights into Elizabeth's parenting, Charles' insecurities, and Diana's struggles -- and we don't miss Maggie Thatcher at...
Hey all! It's Dr. Erin here from a super snowed-in Pittsburgh. We got 10 inches of snow in the storm this week, so I'm hunkered down to write my Friyays. My list this week consists of a lot of really significant, major accomplishments. We all need...
We're halfway through Season 4 and we've come across another strange fitting bottle episode. 'Fagan' follows and fictionalizes the story of Michael Fagan, the man who broke into Buckingham Palace in 1982. It's an episode critiquing Thatcher's economic policies but fits oddly within the meta...
After a few episodes since our last rant, we thought it was time to check in with Northern Ireland. We make our case for why the 1981 Hunger Strikes should have been included in this season and share our thoughts on why it's so politically...
