Word’s out! And this news is pretty extreme. For this weekend only, we’re unlocking three of our top flicks for FREE. Whether you’re hosting or just along for the ride, here are some tips for throwing your own Extreme Streaming Weekend watch party from the comfort of your couch. (Don’t miss out! This streaming event lasts from June 3 at 10 a.m. CT to June 5 at 11:59 p.m. CT.)

Join the Live Second Community  

In order to get special (and did we mention free?) access to the films, you must be a part of the Live Second Community. Once you’re logged in or signed up, then you’ll immediately land on the Community Dashboard where you can explore members-only resources and engage with others committed to living Second.

Pick Your Extreme Film(s)

Now you’re ready to start streaming! Go to the Extreme Streaming Weekend watchlist to select any (or all) of the three must-see documentaries: Loud Krazy Love, The End of Malice and Many Are the Wonders. Each one reveals a raw look at real-life struggles and a journey to overcoming. Learn more about the films by checking out our latest blog.

Invite Your “Cast”

Summer is here. So let’s start making memories. Watching a movie alone isn’t quite the same as watching with your favorite people. So use this Extreme Streaming Weekend as an excuse to invite your best buds or family members over for a memorable watch party. 

Location. Location. Did We Mention Location? 

When it comes to throwing the ultimate watch party, you’re welcome to get creative. From your laptop to your streaming device, you can literally stream from any screen. Use a smartphone projector to watch while you’re in the pool. Bring your smart TV outdoors and circle up the lawn chairs around the bonfire. You could even opt for a local gathering space, like your church or a local park, that holds more people. Or go classic and cozy up on the couch. 

It’s Snack O’Clock

Set the stage for an entertaining watch party with some tasty snacks. Nowadays, you can easily find food inspo at your fingertips on Instagram or Pinterest. Personally, I think nothing feels more like a movie night like ubering for some pizza and microwaving buttered popcorn. But you can also invite your guests in on the fun and ask them to bring their favorite dish. That way, you’ll be sure to please the pickiest eater.

The After Party

The party doesn’t have to end after the film finishes. As a member of the Live Second Community, you can join a forum and share your thoughts with others. And as a host, you could spark a group discussion about these open and honest stories.
