We are joined by Tess and Brooke from Psych Legal Pop Podcast to discuss Hulu’s Pretty Baby: Brooke Shields.


If you’re a Gen Xer, you might feel like you grew up with Brooke Shields, and in many ways you did. She was the quintessential 80’s icon complete with her bushy eyebrows and tight-fitted Calvin Kleins. But few knew what was happening behind the scenes as her mother’s drinking became out of control and a group of sleazy directors couldn’t respect the fact that she was a child. Don’t worry, Amye kept a “scumbag list” so we know who to avoid.
