With a melange of Ripped from the Headlines story points peppering the subject of this week's installment, Season 5, Episode 8 “Abomination,” there is A TON for Adam and Josh to talk about, including Matthew Shepard, Lawrence v. Texas, the odious Westboro Baptist Church, the sham that is conversion therapy, and Oscar-nominated actor George Segal. But don't worry, there's plenty of talk about what really matters to you: hypotheses on the possibly sketchy operations of East Village gay bars, the evolution of acceptable language in television and film, how insanely problematic the movies of our youth are, in-depth analysis of characters' eating habits, and the warped mindset created by the repeated ingestion of the general insanity of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, Karyn R, Summer S, and Matt - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

Jared is joined by comedian, friend, and certified SVU expert Liza Treyger for an unhinged Chit Chat Wednesday that covers everything from drinking on flights to the strange social hierarchy of Delta Comfort. The two bond over airline loyalty, missed upgrades, and the humiliation of milestone flyers getting celebrated nowhere near first class. Liza dishes on tour life, ticket selling honesty, and why she's fully in her “drinking on planes” era, while Jared proudly plays hype man for her upcoming shows. Things take a sharp turn into pop culture obsession as Liza passionately breaks down why Heated Rivalry has completely taken over her brain, her libido, and possibly modern feminism. Along the way, they debate sex scenes, consent, power dynamics, and why straight men may need to take notes. The episode wraps with a surprisingly revealing game of “what would you order” at Applebee's, proving once again that food choices say everything about a person.Jared is on tour!

This week we watched an aptly titled episode which follows a series of rape allegations against a recently retired basketball star.In addition to classic Warren Leight Era racism, this is an episode in which Olivia Benson, improbably, thinks it's cool if people are falsely accused of rape in a shameless bid to end a black man's endorsement deal. We are also treated to some terrible accent work and to newly minted Detective Carisi's delightful mustache and Staten Islander pizza choices.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, Karyn R, Summer S, and Matt - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

Lt Olivia Benson helps a victim who can't remember the details of her attack the previous day. Laurel Linwood is spiraling emotionally. She says after her father's funeral she wound up in a bar, met a man with the same after-shave and expensive watch as her father, and now has vague memories of a pair of scissors. The SVU investigation shifts after Detectives Fin Tutuola and Sonny Carisi find the suspect dead. Laurel tries to bond with Olivia over emotionally distant fathers who never loved them. Laurel says her dad had sex with her as a child, but the details aren't adding up. Olivia realizes she's describing events that only happened to her younger sister, and that actually Laurel is jealous of the attention she got. The suspect admits she killed the man because he reminded him of her father, someone who never loved her enough.We're talking about the very dark Special Victims Unit season 19 episode seven "Something Happened." Our returning guest is Roberta Blevins from the "Life After MLM" podcast.We were told this episode has parallels to the life of Crystal Mangum, but if it does, we don't know what they are.

We're dropping the second Munchies' Choice episode from back in 2022. And for this one, the Munchies chose one for us to excoriate--S19E13 The Undiscovered Country, or Barba's ignominious exit.***Munchies' Choice***When we asked our listeners to select an episode for us to watch, we were asking for a choice as depraved and cruel as this, the episode that see beloved ADA Rafael Barba exit the show in ridiculous (and frankly, insulting) fashion. This episode has everything--if by 'everything' you mean bad acting, nonsensical writing, bizarre plot holes, and Phillip Winchester attempting to cry. Bad though this episode might be, we have so much to talk about including whether or not it's a good idea to rear a spite child, Adam's day at the museum, and the importance of a showrunner. Fans of our digressions should head over to Patreon to hear extensive deep dives into Japanese Onsen culture and minor league baseball.Music:Divorcio Suave - "Munchy Business"Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, Karyn R, Summer S, and Matt - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

The Randomizer (episode.lol) spat out the final episode of the disastrous Michael Chernuchin Era, which meant the Munchie Boys were force-fed the final part of some serialized content. Of course, here, this means we have long-time series regulars acting entirely uncharacteristically, including characters we'd known for 20 years. Perhaps more importantly, this episode eschews all common sense, asking society to act insanely in addition to its characters. This episode brings a season to a close that almost killed the series, and it's bad enough that Adam and Josh have to ask if it shouldn't have been put down.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, Karyn R, Summer S, and Matt - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

Adam and Josh rolled the dice this week, and the dice gave them "Glasgowman's Wrath" (Season 16, Episode 6), which might be the only Halloween episode in the SVU catalogue. Who or what is a Glasgowman? Why is he wrathful? Is it GGG to act out a violent tawdry rape fantasy in a public space? How does any of this pertain to legendary plane crasher Sully Sullenberger? Take a (not 500 mile) walk with us as we breakdown this particularly bizarre example of the modern police procedural.FYI: Josh was hiding out in a concrete bunker in an attempt to evade a rabid gang of beautiful boaters.

Having been fired from her internship at the world's least professional fashion magazine thanks to Leona's lies, Liz feels utterly defeated. But when Jessica suggests a little light burgling, she starts to wonder if she can expose the scheming editor. But she - and indeed we - underestimated Leona's sheer unhingedness! Meanwhile Jessica faces career disappointment and discovers that literally everyone involved with Mode Publications is deeply unprofessional and inappropriate, and Todd finds himself at rock bottom. Things really go off the rails in spectacular fashion in the second half of this book and we absolutely loved it - don't say we didn't warn you!

Our first ever Season 26 episode answers a question I've never asked: what is to be done with all those VR headsets Silicon Valley tried to force on us before they forced AI on us?The answer is: so that bad dads can teach their teenaged sons about the birds and the bees by forcing them to watch brutal POV strangulation porn which in turn leads to a series of assaults on teen girls.

We're back in the Flair offices, and the hinges are totally coming off now. Liz puts her supposedly brilliant revenge scheme into action, with some frankly unnecessary help from Maria and Enid whose own internships have clearly fallen by the wayside. But will Leona foil her plans? Meanwhile Jessica's career seems to be taking off - but she's stuck with odious Quentin instead of less obviously odious but still criminal Cameron, who has vanished from the Mode mail room. But who is that mysterious tuxedo-clad figure who the twins keep spotting at ritzy locales? Plus Todd discovers living alone isn't as fun as he thought, and everyone wears a LOT of waistcoats...

Yet another Season 19 episode of SVU leaves the Munchie Boys scratching their heads wondering in just what world is this even occurring. Opening with an improbable YouTuber montage and having the case of the week closing with a full seven minutes of run time remaining to open the door for an SVU lyceum at a high school, this week's 13 Reasons Why-inspired episode (Season 19, Episode 4 “No Good Reason”) is operating at one of the strangest frequencies we've encountered. This one forces Adam and Josh to reckon with vlogging that makes Eighth Grade seem totally comfortable, how and when they're going to have to get a ChatSlam account for the podcast, and the murky demise of Chester Bennington and Chris Cornell.Sources:Law & Order SVU “No Good Things” Recap and Review - All Things Law and OrderNavigating the “Pink Cloud” Phase of Recovery - HealthlineMusic:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, Karyn R, and Summer S - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

After a supremely messed up Munchies' Choice episode last week, we settled back into the late season doldrums with an SVU that seems deadset on being racist against both Italians and West Virginians while wallowing in a domestic violence case that ends badly in a bathtub. Is it believable that the character who meets his maker would have been taking a bath? Were there more inventive or contemporary ways to take out the abuser? Probably not, but why focus on wanting this ep to make sense? Fin is also left to pick up the pieces from his S21 officer-involved shooting, which means that the Munchie Boys have to wade back into the morass of semi-serialized procedurals to watch as the pieces are picked up from a story from which we probably could have been spared.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, Karyn R, and Summer S - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

In this episode, we break down the biggest entertainment and pop-culture stories of the week, including: • Netflix's upcoming four-part documentary on Sean Combs, executive-produced by 50 Cent, which explores Combs' rise, the abuse allegations against him, and how those accusations led to his current prison sentence. • Kandi Burruss and Todd Tucker's divorce, why their 11-year marriage ended, and how the long-discussed prenup is shaping the split. • New drama involving Offset, Stefon Diggs, and Cardi B, including leaked messages from an IG model and Offset's team denying the claims. • Tara Reid's frightening hospitalization after she believes her drink was spiked at a hotel bar. • Ice-T explaining why he's been missing from several SVU episodes, confirming it's due to budget changes—not because he's leaving the show. • Critics Choice Awards shortlists, with “Sinners” leading all films across technical categories. • A funny list of Thanksgiving do's and don'ts, including not showing up empty-handed, not bringing uninvited guests, and not pre-packing leftovers. • A rundown of the 12 most-loved Thanksgiving dishes, from turkey and stuffing to mac & cheese and pecan pie. • A full reunion breakdown of Married at First Sight Season 19, where all five couples who stayed married on Decision Day ended up divorced 18 months later—each for very different reasons.
Let's get weird with a SUPER early episode recorded before Adam and Josh had dropped an episode. Here, they wrestle with GHB, a reality in which Benson was in a sorority, the continued mistreatment of the homeless, super rapey college bars staffed by enabling deviants, exposition machine Michelle Monaghan, miscast body types for collegiate swimmers, theories of the genesis of Christopher Meloni's entrée into Wet Hot American Summer, and apocryphal baseball lore which can only mean one thing: they watched "Consent," Episode 10 from Season 2 of Law & Order: SVU.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, Karyn R, and Summer S - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

DEFENDANT: Everybody Loves Raymond EVIDENCE: Raymond Cellars Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon SCENE OF THE CRIME: Long Island -- Hey friend — grab a glass and get comfy. In this episode of True Crimes Against Wine we swap the usual table wine for a lush, decanted Raymond Sellers Cabernet Sauvignon (yes, the reserve — velvety label, 14.5% sass included) and spend the episode pairing big-flavor wine notes with bigger TV drama: the sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond. We talk vineyard history (Napa's underdog moment and the Bottle Shock story), decanting tips, and the gorgeous, peppery, black-cherry notes of this super-balanced Cab that the hosts absolutely adore. Then the banter turns to the Barone family: the show's charm, its most cringe-worthy tropes (the “incompetent husband” bit and how sitcom conventions can sneak into real life), and the cast's standout performances — from Marie's manipulative, loving energy to Frank's grumpy heart and Robert's deadpan magic. Expect hot takes on Patricia Heaton's real-life politics, behind-the-scenes casting quirks, and hilarious anecdotes about auditions, auditions-day moods, and even celebrity soap-opera moments (yes, there's an SVU crossover mention). We laugh, we judge, we get nostalgic about laugh tracks and sitcom dinners (IHOP, anyone?), and ultimately try to render a verdict: is Everybody Loves Raymond guilty of reinforcing tired gender tropes, or just a cozy, flawed classic? Pour yourself something good and listen in — we'll make you feel like you're on the couch with us, wine in hand, ready to gossip.

Have you ever looked at an Ancient Roman themed fashion shoot and thought "what this really needs is some random cats wandering around with no expert supervision?" Have you ever bunked off work and left a teenage intern - with whom you inexplicably discuss your personal life - to do your job? Well, you'd be right at home in the Flair offices! Yes, the world's most chaotic and unprofessional magazine reaches new heights of lunacy this week, as Jessica seizes her chance to steal Simone's crown, Quentin's crew manage to create a rain machine in about five minutes, and Leona leaves Liz utterly disillusioned. Plus Liz makes a rookie mistake during a twin switch, Todd hits the clubs again and Cameron and Quentin continue to be the worst. Where's Flair's HR team when we need them?

Everyone's encountered a Dick Wolf TV show production at one point whether it's while sick in bed from school or at a random party so it's time to have others note the absolute most memorable antagonists (who were either one-offs or a recurring presence). How many were corrupt big pharma suits, corrupt detectives or shady prosecutors and how many were atypical thieves, spree killers and truly shameless crimelords? Some quick and to-the-point reminiscing about some clever must-see TV that resembles a potboiling, page-turning novel! SHOWS MENTIONED: Law & Order saga (Original show, SVU, CI, OC, Trial By Jury, Conviction) New York Undercover FBI & FBI: Most Wanted Chicago Fire/PD Chicago Justice GUESTS FEATURED: Aahana Asija (Jean from X) Leanne Caruso Oliver Rockside & Jasen Bach (In Your Earholes Network) Oreo Brewer Free-To-Use Music by Soundscrate.
In our first Munchies' choice episode back from the break, we were gifted a delightful stunt-cast-isode featuring one of the true titans of stage and screen. Yes folks, this SVU features none other than the modern voice of Shaggy Rogers himself, Matthew Lillard, in a, how shall we say, difficult role for him opposite some nobody casting pulled in off the street named Carol Burnett. We also see not Judge Al Bertuccio get defenestrated into a parked car, Fin casually dropping slang from the 1930's into conversation, and the writers' room creating new ethnic slurs from scratch. This one gets a hearty recommendation.

The squad goes after a ring of New Yorkers uploading child sexual abuse material. Detectives Amanda Rollins and Sonny Carisi are stunned to find one of the culprits is Deputy Police Commissioner and major asshole Hank Abraham. As ADA Rafael Barba decides how best to prosecute him, Lt. Olivia Benson has sympathy for Abraham's wife: ADA Pippa Cox. The arrest threatens to both destroy her family and her career as a prosecutor of crimes against children. Meanwhile, Deputy Chief William Dodds urges his son, Sgt. Mike Dodds, to leave SVU for a high profile position. And Benson and Captain Ed Tucker have a "nightcap." We're talking about Special Victims Unit season 17 episode 15* "Collateral Damages." Our returning guest is Aviv Rubinstein of the "Special Viewing Unit" podcast.This episode takes some cues from the 2006 case of Assistant District Attorney Bill Conradt. *Because of a two-part season opener, some streaming services list this as episode 14.

This bonus episode is a chance to step back and make sense of everything that just unfolded in Cracks in the Fandom. If you listened to the series, you saw how an Instagram unfollow spiraled into harassment, infighting, and full-on chaos inside the SVU fandom. This series was petty, confusing , and pretty revealing about how people form attachments online. I wanted to understand why this happens. Why someone can feel personally betrayed by an actor they don't even know. So I reached out to Bradley J. Bond, a professor at the University of San Diego who studies parasocial relationships for a living. He breaks down what these one-sided bonds actually are, why they feel real, and how they can slide from harmless to unhealthy faster than we think. Copyright Takedown Update:My attorney has already filed a counterclaim. Patreon will let me put the episodes back up after the standard 10-business-day window. And Spotify is working on restoring the episodes promptly. I'll keep you updated. Thank you for supporting the show. Without you, I couldn't fight these frivolous legal challenges.

What this delightful episode of SVU lacks in terms of coherent three-act structure or thoughtful character development is more than made up for by the absolute cavalcade of bonkers plot lines and instantly recognizable famous people. Ann-Margret justifiably won an Emmy for her turn as the perma-drunk Rita Wills. William Goddamn Atherton plays a petulant serial killer! Morgan Fairchild gets about 30 seconds of screen time! Liv and Elliot get propositioned for a threesome! There's so much fun in this episode you're going to have to just dive in and revel in the madness.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, and Karyn R - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

In a raucous ride filled with twists and turns that only the Neal Baer years of SVU can deliver, the Unit first catches a dead baby in a bag in a gutter and ends up with two different perps going down for two very different crimes one of which is ripped from not one, but two different headlines. Featuring dives into West Nile Virus, the origins of the UK's Anatomy Act 1832, and subdermal tubes filled with other people's blood used to juke blood tests, this one has a lot going on, and that has nothing to do with how this Season 5, Episode 5 "Serendipity" will forever reframe how you look at honey.Sources:The use of insects in forensic investigations: An overview on the scope of forensic entomology - National Library of Medicine, PubMed CentralBurke and Hare Murders - WikipediaMusic:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, and Karyn R - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

Sadly, this week the Season 13 writing staff unapologetically trashed the second largest city in the state that SVU calls home. We've seen this show look askance at lesser states and provinces across the continent, but the glee with which this episode implies that Buffalonians will stop at nothing to ensure that their own children grow up in unsafe homes is truly shocking. Josh and Adam, of course, talk early childhood education, examine the films of Satyajit Ray and Michael Cimino, describe bottomless brunches and lil' squeezers, and plumb the depths of Rollins's depraved backstory.

ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Daughters of the Moon #5: "Fandoms and exploration baby!" ACOFAE is throwing it back to the Daughters of the Moon series to have a discussion about character development and point of view. That's right, Laura Marie and Jessica Marie are using Stanton's story to drive home points about television production, backdoor pilots, and having the time to flush out a story. In book 5 of this classic 2000's YA series, Stanton's POV is the plot and the poor evil kid has issues. Torn between his love for Serena and his desire to be evil and please the Atrox, Stanton will have to confront his demons from the past and present and make the ultimate sacrifice for love. But when one of the Daughters suffers the ultimate price, what does sacrifice mean?

Frank and Squeaks kick off with Disney's renewed push on a Tangled live-action film and the report of Scarlett Johansson circling Mother Gothel. They roll into the next Jumanji entry, talk what works and what doesn't with these reboots, then Frank delivers a spoiler-light review of Ghost of Yōtei on PS5, praising its deliberate combat, camera work, and Erika Ishii's lead performance. To close, Frank sits down with author and director Neal Fischer to unpack his new book Law and Order SVU Confidential, covering the show's 25-year run, Olivia Benson's cultural footprint, why SVU's New York location shooting matters, and how the series handles real-world issues. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 – Intro and episode rundown 01:12 – Tangled live-action casting 08:14 – Jumanji sequel update 12:10 – Ghost of Yōtei review 21:12 – Interview: Neal Fischer on Law and Order SVU Confidential 54:08 – Wrap Key Takeaways Tangled live-action can work if Disney keeps the tone and songs that made the animated film stick. Jumanji's modern run shines when it leans on ensemble chemistry and family adventure. Ghost of Yōtei is a standout PS5 experience. The duel pacing and camera language make every strike count. Erika Ishii's Otsu is a quiet, layered lead that fits a focused revenge story with memorable mini-bosses. SVU endures on the strength of Olivia Benson's throughline, headline-driven plots, and real New York locations. The show offers aspirational justice while compressing real timelines, which fuels both comfort and criticism. Early SVU seasons keep a cinematic edge; the newest season trends back toward moodier, noir touches. Memorable Quotes “This might be one of the most cinematic games ever. It treats cinematic like a design rule, not just a vibe.” “I feel like this blade's heavy in a way I sometimes don't feel in God of War.” “Benson has the empathy. Stabler is our subconscious anger. Together they work.” “SVU is New York. On-location gives it a soul you can't fake.” “It's a version of the criminal justice system we want it to be.” Call to Action Enjoyed the episode?

As we are getting back into the swing of recording again, the randomizer blessed us with a bonkers season 2 episode of SVU which features misplaced Jets fandom, Cuban Stars baseball lore, and the Bruneian consular website. In Legacy, an extremely bad mom beats and rapes her daughter with a brush to garner sympathy points while blaming her ex-husband, who everyone initially believes did it due to racism. Watch as this mom dismantles family after family on her way to the clink. Also, enjoy how friend of the show, A-List celebrity Jimmy Kimmel, continues to dominate the news cycle in which we recorded this episode.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Kate K, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Roni C, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, and Holly F - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

Someone in HR needs to do an intervention at the Flair offices, because this workplace is terrifyingly unprofessional. The twins are still interns at what we're told is the hottest fashion magazine in town, but things aren't working out as they hoped. Liz's (genuinely good!) idea is rejected by Leona, while Jessica's attempts to shoot a fancy portfolio for photographer Quentin are halted by a giant wave. But things are looking up for Todd, who's now dreaming of a model future working with Simone. So far, so normal - if only these people could stop inappropriately kissing each other! Seriously, half the staff of Flair should be on a register and the others should be reported for breaking labour laws.

On a flight to Paris, distraught 12 year old Dominique says she was forced to give a naked massage to well-connected New York billionaire Jordan Hayes. Detectives Benson and Stabler suspect his ex-girlfriend Dahlia is helping him procure underage girls from around the world. Before they can arrest him, Hayes shows up at SVU to accuse Dominique of raping him. ADA Hadwick is unsuccessful at getting a warrant for the video footage from the billionaire's massage room. After Munch convinces another of Hayes's victims to post her experience online, several pre-teens step forward to tell their stories. Benson tries to get Dahlia to flip, but she refuses. That's when Stabler tells her that Hayes has made a sweetheart deal with the Feds to save himself and let her take the fall.We're talking about Special Victims Unit season 12 episode 15 "Flight." Our guest is the author of Law & Order SVU: Confidential and host of the Triviality podcast Neal E. Fischer.This episode is inspired by the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

Though "Turmoil" (S11E8) was not the best SVU in the series, this slapped together melange of homoerotic fan service, intra-Stabler household drama, impossible travel times, and substandard professional ethics does provide the Munch My Benson boys with plenty of food for thought: Did Dickie Stabler kill Bin Laden? Just how many bodies did Elliot drop this episode? And, of course, is redemption even possible in this economy?Sources:Shana Dowdeswell's sad storyMusic:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Kate K, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Roni C, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, and Karyn R - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

We had low expectations for this trilogy after the vampire drama but Cover Girls turned out to be a lot of fun - albeit with some wildly, unsettlingly inappropriate moments. The twins are doing yet another internship, this time at allegedly hot fashion magazine Flair. Liz is taken under the wing of glamorous editor Leona, while Jessica finds herself doing manual labour for photographer Quentin and tyrannical supermodel Simone - and manages to meet yet another man with no boundaries. Meanwhile Todd is bored out of his mind at his father's company - until he gets a surprising new career opportunity...

Adam's Paternity Leave ends next week, so get some bad mom action up in this joint. A few resourceful new Munchies figured out a work-around where you can join as a free member and upgrade from there to a paid account which charges you for one month and unlocks the back catalog behind the respective tier of the paywall. If you want more content and can't wait until we've fully unlocked everything next month, you can jump in ahead of our return in October.When the Randomizer selects a late-season SVU, there is often a concern that sets in that we might not be getting the best of the insanity that SVU has to offer. That concern was UNFOUNDED with regards to “Motherly Love” (S18E10)—which is a banger in every sense of the word. After having seen nearly 500 episodes of SVU and recorded now 77 episodes of a podcast about the show, it's safe to say that the Munchie Boys have been subjected to some unimaginably shocking things, yet this episode still dropped their jaws with its brazen impropriety.So listen as Adam and Josh revel in a truly disturbing exploration of motherhood in its darkest form. This episode is as good an exemplar as any when trying to describe why this podcast exists.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Kate K, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Roni C, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, and Holly F - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

Adam's Paternity Leave is nearly over, but while we still have a couple weeks left, let's look at the last of a pair of episodes featuring a very tall Emmy winner of yore. A few resourceful new Munchies figured out a work-around where you can join as a free member and upgrade from there to a paid account which charges you for one month and unlocks the back catalog behind the respective tier of the paywall. If you want more content and can't wait until we've fully unlocked everything next month, you can jump in ahead of our return in October.The Munchie Boys pick up where they left off last week, trudging through the murk as Ray's tall brother faces the fallout from having been charged as a serial rapist while the Correction Officers' Benevolent Association possibly threatens Barba's life for having the temerity to come after one of their guys. This fallout includes the first—and thus far, only—time an officer on the Unit dies in the line of duty, which gives Adam and Josh quite a bit to mull over while wondering why the stakes were lowered so much before offing him. Any episode that has Chekhov's gun go off while also not having Chekhov's gun go off means there's going to be plenty of plot discussion to be had. There are also plenty of discussions about the typically insane things that SVU forces one to reckon with, namely intimidation wizards, phantom door-locking chicanery, the hilarity of needing apple boxes in hostage shoots, and much, much more.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Kate K, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Roni C, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, and Olivia - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

We're back - with a super thriller from 1988! Yes, we're revisiting the twins' sejourn at the Sweet Valley News, where everyone's obsessed with the trial of mob boss Frank DeLucca. Liz is convinced that someone will step forward and testify against him, while new fellow intern Darcy mocks her faith in human nature. Liz finds solace in heartfelt chats with Eric, a new arrival in Sweet Valley with a penchant for writing poetry, while Jeffrey is off being a camp counsellor. Is this where her "out of sight, out of mind" approach began? When Jessica and Darcy become convinced that Eric is actually a teenager murderer, they're determined to bring him to justice - but how will Liz react when the truth about Eric is revealed? This book becomes spectacularly unhinged in the last act and all we can say is that the Beckwiths didn't move away a moment too soon.

We're back for the conclusion of the greatest story ever told! Having discovered Jonathan's secret vampire-themed library, not to be confused with Lord Pembroke's secret werewolf-themed library which she discovered in the werewolf trilogy, Liz is convinced that Jessica's new love is a creature of the night. The cops may not believe her, but after spending a day in "cyberspace" Maria sure does - and the rest of the Sweet Valley gang are quickly convinced too! Will Jonathan have to flee a (literal) torch-wielding mob? And if so, will Jessica go with him? All this plus Bruce comes up with the most ridiculous scheme ever, Ned and Alice go out on the razz yet again and Elizabeth does a LOT of shrieking.
