I've always had a fondness for this one. Shatner before he was Shatner, and he does a fine job.

It's really cool to note that really speaking there's nothing here that couldn't be called co-incidence. I don't really know the background on this one, but I wonder if it's a comment on spiritual mediums and the way that some people begin to use them as a crutch.

Haven't got Season 2 yet but I watched this one recently online as it was one that stuck in my mind. Shatner's really good in it and it shows off his acting talents before he developed his Captain Kirk schtick. I love these small town episodes as they really show off the americana that I loved as a kid and still do, and made me want to go there as I have a lot in recent years. Thing with this one that stands out, is there an actual supernatural element or are the characters just imagining it?

P.S. when's the next podcast Tom?

Coincidentally, A new podcast has just been uploaded! A little rusty, but good to get back on it. No download link I'm afraid, we're launching a new site any day so it seems pointless to update the old one, but if you're subscribed it will still come through.
