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. No morals or metaphors to study here - who needs that right now? Come along with us as we socially-distantly discuss, "Mr. Dingle the Strong", "The Fear", and "Hocus-Pocus and Frisby". As always, email us your episode requests at ssmpodcast@gmail.com!

Sound, Sight and Mind: Traveling Through the Twilight Zone

EPISODE 19: “STRANGE INVADERS”

WHAT'S THIS??  It's the long-lost, 18th Episode of Sound, Sight and Mind!  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 as we break down "Jess-belle", "Still Valley" and "Queen of the Nile" and as always, let us know what you think by emailing ssmpodcast@gmail.com!

EPISODE 18: “THAT OLD BLACK MAGIC”

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 as we chat about a pretty solid batch of episodes: "Mirror Image", "Twenty-Two", and "The Midnight Sun".

EPISODE 17: “DAMSELS IN DISTRESS”

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 16: “WEIRD WESTERNS”

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

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).

EPISODE 14: “SPACEMEN ARE ALIKE ALL OVER”

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 13: “DOMO ARIGUTTO, MR. ROBUTTO”

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? Hit us up with your thoughts on Facebook, Instagram or Gmail!

EPISODE 12: “ALL BETS ARE OFF”

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 11: “FUTURESTATE/PIGFACES”

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 of these under-the-radar eps! Email us at ssmpodcast at gmail!

EPISODE 10: “FORGOTTEN FAVORITES”

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 what you think!

CHRISTMAS MINISODE: “THE MEEK INHERIT THE PODCAST”

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 Camera" and "A Piano In the House".

EPISODE 9: “SOME MOST UNUSUAL OBJECTS [OR EPISODES?]”

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" and the iconic "To Serve Man" on this episode of S/S/M. Send us an email and let us know what you think or check us out on Facebook and Instagram!

EPISODE 8: “MEN ARE FROM MARS, SHORT-ORDER COOKS ARE FROM VENUS”

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 to each other when this is over? Let us know what you think!

EPISODE 7: “SPEAK OF THE DEVIL”

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 "Simpler" equal "Better"? Let us know what you think!

EPISODE 6: “YOU CAN GO HOME AGAIN”

Three brothers discuss, debate and dissect the classic series, "The Twilight Zone" - three episodes at a time.
