  • Victor Webster Edition - BONUS EPISODE Ft. Jane S. - June 2024
    Jun 21 2024

    This is the Bonus Episode to the Victor Webster Edition draft from earlier this month. If you haven’t listened to that show yet, listen to it first, then come back this bonus drop!

    We sometimes get messages from listeners saying whether they agree with a final list or if they’re upset because they’re favorite movie didn’t make the final top 10 list. This month, we received an audio message with a preemptive plea directed to the guest panelists Erin, Elizabeth and Jenna, and hosts Tracy and Lynn before the show was even recorded!

    You’ll hear Jane's message pleading her case, and each of our responses to her. Did her favorite movie make the final top 10 list? Hmmmm.... This match was an absolute blast!

    You can hear audio clips from the Victor Webster Edition on our Instagram.

    Coming up in July: The Wes Brown Edition!

    Special Delivery for Postables lovers! Grab a Yoo-hoo and kick back! Guest panelists Rina and Kristin create the definitive list of the 7 best Signed, Sealed, Delivered two-hour Hallmark movies out of the 12 that have been made. Which movies will make their list?
