This week’s podcast episode finds Merie & Becky diving into an online relationship’s deadly collateral damage, featuring murderer Grant Amato, where the 2 people in the “relationship” aren’t the ones who end up dead. Merie also reveals even more in-depth & terrifying info about the family annihilation of Margaret, Chad, and Cody Amato than was seen in the documentary CTRL ALT Desire.

Along the way, the phrase “adolescents going to doctors for boner pills” makes an appearance, and your hosts address the burning questions you didn’t know you had, like:

How does movie popcorn help you prevent yourself from professing that someone is your angel on earth?

What’s the most cringe-y sex scene in the history of cinema…St. Elmo’s Fire or Bridgerton?! (Hint: it’s a tie!)

Anybody out there know any crabby old widows in the highlands of Scotland that creepy creeper Grant could steal from next? (Merie might!)

Do YOU always put refrigerators in corn fields when you’re going through a hard time? (Becky does!)

Come for the (wildly) inappropriate wifi names. Stay for the super-sexy grammar lesson involving propofol.

Find the violence threat assessment tool Becky mentions here. Read more about childhood resilience & the importance of neuroplasticity here. And y’all go watch the hilarious and delightful Jane the Virgin. Do it now.
