Episode 62: Pictures of Spiders
Original air date: August 22, 2018
Episode overview
The first official Halfway Okay TV Party assigns Party of Five season one for later discussion. Party of Five is the occurrence subject rather than part of the reusable segment name, and no review, winner, or prize occurs here. A BuzzFeed greatest-fear quiz assigns Danny being forever alone or never finding true love and Bingo small spaces. The hosts call the quiz a flop; it is noncompetitive and declares no winner or prize. The hosts introduce Stuniverse, play one continuous prerecorded Stu Charno contributed-audio submission containing a haiku and reflection on death and material transformation, then respond and thank him. The file is not a voicemail, live call, or outgoing call.

Verified episode facts
- **Episode 62 zero findings and citation policy**: No Name That Name round, winner, or prize; canonical Rank'em occurrence; recognizable ordered-ranking predecessor; Pokemon ranking; drawing; live chat; or Ice Cube signal occurs. Somebody Quiz Me is a result quiz rather than a ranking precursor, and Who's Nicer receives no entries, winner, or prize.

The views remain attributed to Stu rather than independently verified archive facts.
