What in the Wide World of Cinema!? episodes:

July 18, 2025 Elephant (2003) w/HVR redux
The audio of this episode is exactly the same as episode 11 (which was removed by spotify for copyright infringement....of a song that is over 200 years old and definitely in the public domain) So, I took Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven out of this episode. and what the hell, I'm joining a class action law suit against a company that keeps claiming they own things that they DO NOT. Anyway, if you are looking for episode 11 on Columbine and Elephant (2003), this is the episode.
