Christopher & Eric

Christopher and Eric go all in on the topics of coming out, being yourself and letting your own personal freak flag fly. Also, they reveal the title of the first true crime documentary they'll be discussing for "Christopher and Eric's True Crime TV Club," debuting in Ep. 3.

In this emotional edition of Christopher and Eric's True Crime TV Club, your hosts serve up the first true crime stories that disturbed them when they were young. For Eric, it's the murder of Kitty Genovese, a notorious tale of alleged urban apathy that smeared an entire city. But is anything you've heard about it actually true? Eric was stunned by the revelations within A CRIME TO REMEMBER, Season 2, Episode 1, entitled "38 Witnesses". For Christopher, it's the disappearance of 10-year-old Kevin Collins from a San Francisco street corner in 1984, as documented in PEOPLE MAGAZINE INVESTIGATES, Season 4, Episode 3. It's a tragically unsolved case, but years later, the person responsible may be within sight. (This episode was recorded remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic, which might explain slight variations in sound quality.)

We’re renaming October as we celebrate the legacy of our beloved Premiere Party Person, Anne Rice, born this month of darkness, mystery and transition. Travel along with Christopher and Eric has they share their memories of the woman who changed fiction forever. As your hosts reminiscence about book signings and fan club gatherings of yore, we'll even hear from Anne herself, with a special archival interview recorded in her New Orleans hotel suite the morning after a glittering costume ball celebrating Prince Lestat's return to bestsellerdom. Your hosts also bring you the latest about Anne's forthcoming Celebration of Life in New Orleans and how you can get all the updates.

In which Christopher and Eric try to put Spring Broke back together again. Your hosts discuss the lighter side of the raucous, drunken, licentious holiday that occupies the worst nightmares of most parents. And it’s all thanks to you our beloved Party People. We asked you to share your warmest Spring Break memories on The Dinner Party Show’s Facebook page, and the result was a nostalgic discussion of coming of age, coming out and how we define family and home.

There are certain questions your hosts Christopher and Eric return to again and again on this true crime-centric podcast. What is the true nature of justice? Is it possible for victims of violent crime to ever get closure? What the hell is bitcoin? In episode 5 of season 1 of the Canadian – not that there’s anything wrong with that – true crime series RICH AND SHAMELESS, entitled “The Mysterious Disappearance of a Bitcoin Millionaire”, we get a crash course in how this confusing Internet based currency allows for con artists and criminals to rook people out of their savings. Meet Gerry Cotten, founder of one of the largest Bitcoin trading platforms in the world. Now get a good look at him because he’s about to jet off to the other side of the world and die suddenly of a disease no one knew he had after locking your money away in a digital wallet only he had access to. His new wife doesn’t even have the code. Do you? Does anyone?
