Around The Dial takes us through even more true crime with WeCrashed , Captive Audience , and Gaslit , plus The Baby and RuPaul's Drag Race . Santiago pitches the WandaVision episode "Previously On" for induction into The Canon; then after naming the week's Winner and Loser, it's on to a Game Time that might make players a bit crabby.
