Christopher & Eric Podcast: True Crime Episodes Featuring Vanity Fair Confidential
All our episodes featuring episodes of Vanity Fair Confidential, where it’s class with a dash of trash.
- Ep. 302 – Christopher & Eric’s True Crime TV Club Serves Up “VANITY FAIR CONFIDENTIAL: Was Bambi Framed?”Nostalgia Month continues as Christopher and Eric celebrate crossing the 300 episode mark. To enshrine the occasion, they’re serving up another one of their favorite series, VANITY FAIR CONFIDENTIAL, and another trip back in time. In episode four of season three, they head to Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1981, where the brutal murder of a devoted cop’s (ex) wife sets off an international saga of frame ups, jail breaks and drug busts that have less to do with the war on drugs and more to do with a war on truth. Also, watch out for a cop they call Disco. “Was Bambi Framed?”. That’s the title of today’s true crime serving. Christopher and Eric have thoughts, but they also want to hear yours.
- Ep. 250 – Christopher & Eric’s True Crime TV Club Serves Up “Vanity Fair Confidential – The Boy Who Cried Author”Your hosts Christopher and Eric are both bestselling authors who are never reluctant to share personal details about their lives. But at the end of the day, what does an author of fiction truly owe their audience when it comes to their own life story? This is just one of the questions that defines the twisty and edgy tale of literary phenomenon J.T LeRoy as Christopher and Eric serve up episode 2 of season 4 of one of their favorite series, VANITY FAIR CONFIDENTIAL, entitled “The Boy Who Cried Author”. As Double Identity Month continues, we travel from West Virginia truck stops to San Francisco night clubs to the vaunted offices of New York publishers as the line between fiction and memoir gets stretched to the breaking point. Christopher also shares his own experience at the hands of a literary catfish who took the romance writing world by storm.
- Ep. 234 – Christopher & Eric’s True Crime TV Club Serves Up “Vanity Fair Confidential: The Killing Trail”Pride Month continues as Christopher and Eric head to Texas for a True Crime TV Club installment that deepens their previous episode’s discussion of crime and hate in the Lone Star State. It turns out Paul Quintanilla was just one of many queer people who lost their lives to cable TV’s supercharging of bigoted televangelists in the 1990’s. In season 2, episode 3 of VANITY FAIR CONFIDENTIAL, entitled “The Killing Trail”, we follow a hateful and bloody path from the windswept beaches outside Corpus Christi to the public parks of Dallas. Along the way they encounter brave, dedicated activists who managed to effect change in one of the country’s most conservative states.
- Ep. 198 – Christopher & Eric’s True Crime TV Club Serves Up “Vanity Fair Confidential: St. George’s Hidden Dragons”Back to School Month continues as Christopher and Eric head to a posh New England prep school where secrecy and lies mask a legacy of abuse. But this tragedy extends far beyond the leafy borders of the seemingly idyllic campus of St. George’s School, founded in the 19th Century to educate the offspring of the Gilded Age elite. A stunning expose in Vanity Fair magazine unveils the lengths administrators went to in order to protect the predators in their midst and the school’s prestigious reputation. Christopher and Eric work to keep their tempers in check as they serve up episode 10 of season 3 of the series VANITY FAIR CONFIDENTIAL entitled, “St. George’s Hidden Dragons” on Max and Discovery Plus. Brace yourself as you discover the true and terrible meaning of the term “passing the trash”.
- Ep. 36 – Christopher & Eric’s True Crime TV Club Serves Up “Vanity Fair Confidential: Natalee Holloway, Lost In Paradise”It’s some parents’ worst nightmare, and in the early 2000’s it was every cable news network’s favorite kind of story. A missing young white woman whose disappearance is shrouded in mystery and suspicion. But the Natalee Holloway case took more twists than most. It even made a pit stop for a little retribution. As your hosts serve up Episode 12 from season 3 of VANITY FAIR CONFIDENTIAL, find out which central player in this international drama most impressed Eric with her fortitude and smarts, and take solace in the fact that your vacation plans got cancelled this summer. As the Natalee Holloway case proves, sometimes that island paradise is not as tranquil as it looks. (If this episode sounds different from our others, that’s because it was recorded remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic. We hope to be back in our usual studio space as soon as public health advisories allow.)
- Ep. 10 – Christopher & Eric’s True Crime TV Club Serves Up “Vanity Fair Confidential: Murder Most Obsessive”True Crime TV Club is back. This time Christopher and Eric take you on a steamy tour of 1970’s Hollywood and a torrid sex scandal that came close to consuming the Reagan White House. In the early 70’s, millionaire mogul Alfred Bloomingdale met a beautiful aspiring young actress named Vicki Morgan. The result was a secret, decade-long affair that would ultimately consume socialites and politicos before it ended in a disturbing murder and a court case that captured the attention of one of Vanity Fair’s most high profile writers. On this wild ride, the line between victim and villains is as twisted as the turns in Mulholland Drive, but Christopher and Eric are determined to drive you straight to the truth.
