After a long stretch of recording remotely, we finally assembled in the same room for this week’s episode! It features a story entitled “Cat’s Cradle” from the series, Price of Fear!

Couldn’t get past the animal abuse and cruelty, particularly how graphic it is. Had to stop the episode. Hope this episode disappears from the world, no reason to keep it around.
