Bromance Month goes dark again — really dark — with this new look at a hideous, landmark serial killing case, the first of its kind to be covered by national media as body after body was discovered inside a sweltering boat shed baking in the merciless heat of Houseton Texas. In THE SERIAL KILLER'S APPRENTICE, psychologist Katherine Ramsland — who also wrote a biography of Christopher's mother — interviews the imprisoned accomplice to Dean Corll, the so-called Candyman Killer, who tortured, murdered and raped young men throughout Texas in the 1960's. Was Wayne Henley a willing accomplice and a budding serial killer himself?  Or was he pitched into a state of "temporary psychopathy" by mean circumstances, a broken home and a ruthless killer and sadist who kept him in a state of fear?

In which Christopher and Eric lose their collective minds and join the delirious, global freakout over the groundbreaking, generation-defining series, HEATED RIVALRY. They had no idea that when one of our Very Important Party People showed up in their VIPP Facebook group --sign up now-- talking about a "puck and **ck" show coming to Canadian television most of the planet would soon be in its firm, confident grip. Christopher and Eric dish on hot hockey players, MM romance, their own super gay books as well the geniuses that are Rachel Reid and Jacob Tierney.  Is it still a bromance if they kiss? Bromance Month continues with this spicy Valentine.

Bromance Month continues with the second in our two part serving of THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN MORTICIAN MURDER in which last week's cliffhanger ending gives way to a gunslinging treasure hunt, small town style. As Christopher and Eric serve up the final two episodes of the series, the bodies keep dropping and the skeletons keep coming out of the closet. Meanwhile, your hosts have questions ranging from the urgent to the mundane. Where did the victim's precious gold bars go? Who sabotaged the vintage cars at the Pioneer Day Parade? Why didn't one of the only gays in town spot the gay twist that defined this bonkers tale? And most importantly, in Eric's view, why didn't the police focus on the potential suspects who most benefited from this crime?  You'll never look at turkey pot pie the same way again.

Bromance Month begins in a rugged, mountainous American state about which host Eric Shaw Quinn has some controversial opinions relating to altitude, oxygen uptake and mental health. In part 1 of their the two-part serving of THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN MORTICIAN MURDER, Christopher and Eric deliver episode 1 of the three episode series featuring dueling morticians, missed lunch dates, lesbian moms, abusive sons and a cliffhanger ending that will leave you gasping for some of that thin mountain air and the revelations of Part II. Keep your oxygen masks handy.

Let's just say this is the deepest of the deep fried episodes of DATELINE you'll ever find, and Christopher and Eric can think of no more fitting an end to Hot Dateline Month than this grease-poppin', wife-hoppin' installment. (Trigger warning. Given their own illustrious ancestries, your hosts will be using the term "white trash" as much as they damn well feel like, thank you very much ) There are extramarital shenanigans inside of an exterminator's truck in the courthouse parking lot. Also, a pivotal piece of evidence involves French fries. Hot ones. Need we say more? Welcome to Morris, Alabama where we're told everything is about church. Sure, Morris.

Hot Dateline Month has delivered sultry swaying palms and bleak Montana highways. Now it's time to head to an affluent Midwestern suburb where  — wait for it! — a seemingly idyllic marriage is not all it's cracked up to be. You know it's going to be a doozy when the narration begins by describing the episode as "One of the strangest stories we've ever had on DATELINE." Enter episode 4 of season 29, entitled "Sex, Lies And Murder" where you'll meet Jane and Bob Bashara, the couple who has it all — including a semi-secret BDSM dungeon Bob keeps in the basement of one of his rental properties. And does this case hinge on the ick-factor-disapproval of suburban sensibilities? On this particular question, Christopher and Eric aren't sure they agree.

Hot Dateline Month continues with this breakneck chase down the long dark highway of mental illness. Episode 16 of season 31, entitled "On A Dark, Deserted Highway", begins decades before the terrifying police pursuit that gives this episode its name. It’s the dark saga of a tormented man whose twisted actions towards his wives and loved ones should have resulted in his confinement and treatment years before he went on a deadly shooting spree and high speed chase on a peaceful Montana night. How does one man end up turning against the very system that allowed his crimes to go unchecked for years?  That's the question Christopher and Eric wrestle with in this truly disturbing installment of one of their favorite true crime shows.

Welcome to Hot Dateline Month in which your hosts Christopher and Eric celebrate the iconic, storied and always reliable true crime phenomenon that started their obsession with the genre. And what better way to kick off this tribute than with the GAYEST DATELINE EVER. (That's not what NBC called it, of course.) Impeccably dressed fine arts dealers and terribly twinky con men collide under the scorching Palm Springs sun in the 3,675th episode of the 329th season of DATELINE. (Just kidding. It's actually episode 3 of season 34, so we're not that far off.) "The Prince, The Whiz Kid and the Millionaire" has all the ingredients of a novel written by your hosts poolside after one box of bon bons too many.

Christopher and Eric are throwing a massive wrap party for one of the most exhausting and exhilarating years they've ever lived. No kidding. With ANNE RICE, AN ALL SAINTS' DAY CELEBRATION having been a glowing success in New Orleans on November 1st, and the sparkling film version now available for your free home viewing at AnneRice.com, they're taking time to celebrate some of the films, TV shows and books they didn't write in the previous year, but loved none the less. Care for a handsome British detective anyone? No doubt, several made the list.

You failed us, Party People. We begged and we pleaded and we cried for you to bring us a potential true crime Christmastime story that wasn't another family massacre, and here we are again — and in a tranquil town named for a pretty flower, no less. Ho ho help, it's time for Christopher and Eric to serve up the second episode ever of HOMICIDE FOR THE HOLIDAYS, entitled "Christmas Carnage In Carnation". "No one loves Christmas more than sixty-year old Wayne Anderson and his sixty-one-year old wife Judy"… Well, as we all know on HOMICIDE FOR THE HOLIDAYS, that's their first mistake. What other diabolical events turn this woodsy spread of sheds and trailers into a scene out of a horror movie? On this fateful Christmas Eve night, holy hell is more like it. Get ready for another Crueltide Carol!
