EPISODE 16: “WEIRD WESTERNS”

Posted on by ssmpodcast

Saddle up, y’all – in this episode we’re trading dummies and ray guns for chaps and whisky.  What happens when we tackle a Twilight Zone sub-genre that is less-familiar and to be honest, we just don’t like all that much?  Well, Steve is still going to talk about poop, so there’s that.

We’re looking at “Mr. Denton on Doomsday”, “The Grave” and “Showdown with Rance McGrew”.  Don’t forget to let us know your thoughts on Facebook, Instagram or email us at ssmpodcast@gmail.com!

EPISODE 15: “IS THIS THE REAL LIFE…IS THIS JUST WEIRD TV…”

Posted on by ssmpodcast

What if one day you woke up and looked around and thought, “THIS ISN’T MY BEAUTIFUL WIFE! THIS ISN’T MY BEAUTIFUL HOUSE!” Frankly, you could argue a lot of the episodes of the Twilight Zone start this way. Well, in our first episode back in a looooong time, we’re focusing in on three episodes that ask, “What is reality?” Chris does some deep investigation into some French-American, Jazz-Folk fusion. Steve tackles “This Week in Feces”. Ken barely makes it to the end of the episode before his computer bursts into flames. Welcome back to S/S/M!

EPISODE 14: “SPACEMEN ARE ALIKE ALL OVER”

Posted on by ssmpodcast

In this episode, we travel to parts unknown with some interstellar explorers who, when it comes to having “The Right Stuff”, seem especially lacking. Join us on these three outer-space journeys where we’ll encounter all different forms of alien life, and discover whether or not “People Are Alike All Over” (and we’re talking “The Little People” and “Elegy” too).

Aaaaaaaand we’re back! The brothers have reconvened to dive into three episodes about some not-quite-human characters, and the people who love them. Which of Serling’s “Robutts” would you want to hang out with? Join us for deep dive into “The Lonely”, “I Sing the Body Electric” and “In His Image” and hit us up on facebook with your thoughts!

EPISODE 12: “ALL BETS ARE OFF”

Posted on by ssmpodcast

In this episode of S/S/M, we watch a collection of desperate characters bet their lives in all sorts of Zone-y ways – One-armed bandits! Marathon billiard games! Gentlemanly (douchey) wagers! We’re talking about “The Fever”, “A Game of Pool”, and “The Silence”. Which episode hits the sci-fi jackpot and which one craps out? Which one gives Chris uncomfortable flashbacks to invasive surgical procedures?

EPISODE 11: “FUTURESTATE/PIGFACES”

Posted on by ssmpodcast

In this clumsily-titled episode (Outdated Justin Timberlake references FTW!), we examine three visions of the horrible future, where mankind, ruled by oppressive and dictatorial politicians have abandoned all logic and reason in favor of propaganda, conformity, fear tactics, and oh my god, we’re living in a dystopian nightmare right now, aren’t we?

These are some heavy-hitters guys: “Eye of the Beholder”, “Number 12 Looks Just Like You” and “The Obsolete Man”. Listen and share your thoughts with us on Facebook, Instagram or drop us an email!

EPISODE 10: “FORGOTTEN FAVORITES”

Posted on by ssmpodcast

A listener asked us to come up with some episodes that never make the “Best-Of” lists, but maybe are worth a second look. Call them B-Listers, Forgotten Faves or who knows – maybe we’ll talk about them and find that they should have stayed forgotten. We explore “Nightmare as a Child”, “Ring-a-Ding Girl” and “Shadow Play”.
