This week, we take you back to a time of dial up modems, the first iPhone, and the birth of catfishing! This is also an episode of firsts: Our first show outside of Skullverx, the first guest appearance of Stephanie’s fat tabby, Rocky (won’t you please rub his belly?), as well as the start of Rachel’s rap career. Join us as we examine TALHOTBLOND (2012), a true story based on a 2007 internet homicide that is so crazy and convoluted, you’ll think Lifetime hired M. Night Shyamalan as a consultant. Get ready for a tangled WEB of deception, perversion, and murder, cause this episode is on fire(wall)!

7 - Mother May I Sleep with Danger
How many Kevins does it take to make a Lifetime movie? How many Billys do you need to build a murderous stalker? What exactly is a pangolin? We explore these existential questions (as well as many others) in MOTHER, MAY I SLEEP WITH DANGER (1996), starring the one and only Tori Spelling. You might need a whiteboard and some flowcharts as we delve deep into this Lifetime classic about a bright college student who quickly discovers that her excessively devoted and controlling boyfriend may not be who he says he is. We suggest you don a safety helmet, because the trinity may give you brain damage on this MOTHER of all Lifewine episodes. You have been warned!
This movie can be viewed on Crackle.

9 - I Do (But I Don't)
In this week’s episode, we meet an unlucky-in-love wedding planner (NOT Jennifer Lopez) who encounters the man of her dreams (NOT Matthew McConaughey). The problem is, he’s the GROOM in the wedding she is planning! If someone were to ask if you if think we’re talking about the movie The Wedding Planner, you may say “I do...” But don’t!
In 2004’s I DO (BUT I DON’T), Lifetime brings us a kooky comedy of errors containing more tropes and misunderstandings than an episode of Three’s Company. We also learn that it’s harder to get out of a wedding dress than a marriage, that the children’s song “Ring Around the Rosie” was actually foretelling Covid-19, and Rachel shares her mind-blowing (yet totally solid) theory on unsolved serial killer cases. We hope you signed a pre-nup, because you may want to divorce us after this one! (Please DON’T! Because we DO love you!) **Apologies for the audio issues in regards to Stephanie's microphone at the very beginning of this episode, these are fixed after about 9 minutes!**
