Nicole Georges grew up believing that her father was dead. That’s what her family told her, after all. But when she was in her 20’s, a palm reader told Nicole he was alive.
Turns out, that palm reader was right.
Based off the award winning 2013 graphic memoir, Calling Dr. Laura, these six episodes will take us through Georges’ investigation, the stories she was told, and the rollercoaster of belief and identity she went through in the process.

Turns out, that palm reader was right.
Sent into a tailspin, Georges becomes an amateur sleuth, piecing together the different stories from all sides about her father and why he was kept away from her.
