Ace Larson is a small-time gambler who can never seem to catch a break, so when he learns that his friend Jimbo can move objects with his mind, he knows just how to exploit it: they’ll go to Las Vegas and make money hand-over-fist on craps and roulette. Jimbo is no cheat, however, and realizes he may need to take matters into his own hands to save his friend. Nicole and Peter will roll the dice on this gamble of an episode and discuss Werner Herzog’s shoes, another King of the Hill tie-in, and the origins of Little Caesar’s.
We hope you’ll join us.

An old radio helps curmudgeonly Mr. Lindsay reconnect with his past, a past he wishes desperately to have another shot at. Disillusioned with modern life and consumed by regret, the old music and programs only he can hear pull him further and further away from the present. Nicole and Peter will tune in to this wireless episode and discuss Richard Matheson’s house parties, the song “I’m Getting Sentimental Over You,” and a return of Grim Facts.

Tuesday Feb 17, 2026
Mr. Luther Dingle, a naïve, timid vacuum cleaner salesman, is the perfect candidate for an experiment from a pair of Martian scientists. They give Dingle the strength of 300 men, only to be disappointed with the mundane ways he uses it.

Tuesday Feb 10, 2026
Flight 33 starts off as normal as any other, but after catching one doozy of a jet stream and breaking the sound barrier, they’ve traveled back in time…really, really far back in time. With fuel running low, their only chance may be to find that jet stream again and hope it spits them out closer to home. Nicole and Peter will try to land this episode and discuss the two Serling brothers who worked on the episode, display livers, and a new Cool Lil Guy.
We hope you’ll join us.

Tuesday Feb 03, 2026
A recurring dream about a hospital morgue—the eponymous room 22—plagues Miss Liz Powell, who has been checked in to the hospital to treat her nervous fatigue from overwork. Although she can’t quite put her finger on it, she knows what she’s experiencing is much more than a dream…but she may be running out of time to figure out what exactly it is. Nicole and Peter will make room for this episode and discuss a minor rival to Marilyn Monroe, the episode’s connection to Toy Story 2, and a very dislikable doctor.
We hope you’ll join us.

It’s April 14th, 1865, and Peter Corrigan knows that this is the night President Lincoln will be assassinated.
