    'BINGE OR BUST?' Ep. 19- The Curious Case of... Bam Margera part I

    ID is back at their shenanigans and so are we! We asked our PATRONS what they missed and they said 'Binge or Bust'?... which yay, so did we! And wouldn't you know that journalistic juggernauts Investigation Discovery and Beth Karas released another intensely factual and unbiased docu-series at just the right time. We kicked off the start of 2024 with a full breakdown of all six episodes of "The Curious Case of Natalia Grace" and now we're back with another curious case from ID, but one of a very different nature. It's "The Curious Case of... Bam Margera". "Jackass star Bam grapples with addiction and Lima takes over his treatment. Online advocate BJ attacks Lima’s motives and a vicious battle ensues." - ID Strap in because Ash has A LOT to say! ✨Please consider supporting us on Patreon, for early ad-free content and so much more for as little as $5 a month!  🩷Or make a one time donation on Buy Me a Coffee!✨ 👾We have an amazing community of friends and fans on Discord and it's open to everyone 🕸️Visit That's So Fcked Up's Website: https://tsfuthepodcast.com/ 📸TSFU on IG: https://www.instagram.com/tsfuthepodcast/ 👀Ash on IG: https://www.instagram.com/ashleyloverichards/ 📲Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/thats-so-fcked-up/id1508752329 🎧Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2zo86q0aYvNSg8prn1k73N?si=590fae149eb24218 -Audio editing by Ryan Truby.

    TSFU INTERVIEWS: Ep. 5- Erin Riley, Author of "A Dark Force: 20 Years with a Covert Narcissist"

    In this episode of TSFU Interviews, Fallon chats with Erin Riley, author of "A Dark Force: 20 Years with a Covert Narcissist". They talk about recognizing narcissistic abuse and ways to process and deal with it, as well as her adventures in and around the music business"! Celebrated music maven Erin Riley looked like she had it all: a 1960s Mad Men–style upbringing on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, then an escape to “find herself” in glamorous 1970s Hollywood, where she landed some of the most influential positions of the 1980s music industry. She hung out with rock stars like Keith Richards, Steven Tyler, James Taylor, and Jon Bon Jovi and chose the hit records for America’s #1 rock & roll radio station, WMMR-FM. But her colorful, raucous, rock & roll life hid dark secrets.An emotionally neglected child with a generational legacy of stoicism and hiding painful truths, Erin had no real experience with love and healthy relationships. The marriage she thought would be her happily-ever-after led to 20 years of confusion, heartbreak, anger, and betrayal, all fueled by a malignant covert narcissist. Erin’s honest, searing memoir recounts her self-discovery journey through a series of life’s traumas and tragedies, her many bad decisions, and two toxic marriages. Her story will bring insight and guidance to survivors of narcissistic abuse and those questioning their relationships, and the hope that they, like Erin, can find a joyous rock & roll redemption." - Amazon Please check out Erin's website!
