Are they SCARY good, or HORRIFYINGLY bad? Listen along and find out!ssmpodcast

With great mental power comes great responsibility, so what do you do with it--blackmail your boss? Hit the craps tables? Wish away the entire human population but still go to your boring accounting day job for some reason? We get pretty chatty about these three tales of average joes who flirt with above-average power -- "A Penny For Your Thoughts"…

Am I crazy, or did we just drop a new podcast episode after 2 years away? Perhaps this is just a case of obvious mass hypnosis, like in "The Arrival". Maybe it's a deadly and slightly erotic fever dream, as in "Perchance to Dream"! Or maybe, just maybe you're not crazy...and we really are the furry gremlins in your "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet"...…

We're back from a looooong slumber, to scare up three episodes just in time for Halloween! Join us for a spooky journey into some of the darker corners of The Twilight Zone, where we discuss such horrors as Supertramp album covers, the film White Christmas, and just how exactly the entire population of an old-west, frontier town has so much F.U. mo…

It's the first SSM Quarantine-Cast! Recording live from lockdown, the Andrade brothers decided they had nothing better to do than pick apart some of the goofier alien invasion episodes.

In honor of Steve's birthday, our intrepid guest editor Ty rescued these recordings from the vault and gifted you with a brand new (old) episode!These three stories all have a touch of dark magic to them - some cast a spell, and others are maybe...uh, not good? Dive in with us…

Music can you get you through some tough times.

Three brothers are talking about three women who get put to the test when they find themselves in some very Zone-y situations. Usually for Rod's female characters, they just have to cope with some old-fashioned 1960's misogyny. This time, he's added sinister doubles, deadly nightmares, a climate crisis, and a super skeevy doctor to the mix. Join us…

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 "Showdow…

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 invest…

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 …

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!…

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 unc…

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?…

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".Let us know what you think …

Ho Ho Ho! We're stuffing your stocking with a special episode where we look at the famous, "(The) Night of the Meek" from not one, BUT TWO different Twilight Zone eras! How do they compare? A "Honeymooner" vs. an "Empty Nester". Piglet vs. Walter Peck. Creepy Elves vs. Bad 80's Special FX. Which decade does it best? Give it a listen and tell us wha…

Devious Frenchmen, a secret Mexican rendez-vous, heavily pushed chicken-fried steak specials...these are just some of the things that await those who stumble upon some of the magical objects found in The Twilight Zone. Join us this week as we get our first dose of Shatner and play with some of the odd trinkets in "A Nick of Time", "A Most Unusual C…

Mankind is doomed! DOOOOOOMED! On this episode, the brothers take a look at some of the visitors from outer space, and their nefarious plans to conquer our world. The Martians are invading! The Kanamits are putting us in their stew! What the f@ck are these leather-clad greasers doing? It's "Will the Real Martian Stand Up", "Black Leather Jackets" a…

On this spooOOOOOky Halloween episode, we look at three episodes that deal with the Prince of Darkness himself, and the three hapless nincompoops who try to best him. Satan takes many forms in "Escape Clause", "Printer's Devil" and "The Howling Man". Who wears the horns best? Who is the biggest potato pancake? Will the Andrade brothers still speak …

The brothers look backwards and decide if waxing nostalgic about our youth is really all it's cracked up to be. We follow our heroes into the past as they defy aging in "Kick the Can", get lost in the movies in "16 Millimeter Shrine" and creepily stalk themselves and gorge on ice cream sodas in "Walking Distance". When it comes to time, does "Simpl…

In this episode of S/S/M, the guys talk about 3 episodes that deal with the whos and whys of their respective main characters. From the killer performances of "The After Hours", to the terrific clowning in "5 Characters in Search of an Exit", to the video hell that is "The Lateness of the Hour", we discuss it all! No pain! No pain! None at all! Giv…

In this episode, the guys rummage through the creepy, Twilight Zone toy box, and get re-acquainted with their old friends--Willie, Talky Tina, and Caesar (aka: "Willie slumming it for a paycheck"). Were you scarred by "The Dummy", "Living Doll" or "Caesar and Me"? Listen and tell us what you think!ssmpodcast

The guys discuss The Twilight Zone’s oh-so-rosy view of human nature with a trio of episodes that look at humanity at its worst: “The Monsters are Due on Maple Street”, “The Shelter”, and “The Old Man in the Cave”. Listen as we talk paranoia, faith, Brylcreem and desperately try (and fail) to avoid comparisons to our current political climate. Bonu…
