The President

The Day 24 of the Twilight Zone podcast, Advent calendar, our final day before Christmas Day and Merry Christmas Christmas Emmy. Oh, Merry Christmas, Tom.

This has been lovely. Again, I hope we can keep doing this because this is such a nice way around

off the year and keep everybody chatting. I love it. And we get our final question from our old friend Al Shedsma and he says,

What if it was one more season five episode after the bewitching pool?

What would you like it to be?

Something based on a Beaumont or Matheson story?

Something that Rod later used in the Loner or Night Gallery?

William Froog's many, many monkeys, some other episode originally planned for the season,

such as Matheson's the Doll.

So, good question Al, that's why I saved it till last, and I think there is a finality to that question,

which is also why I saved it till last.

So, Emmy, what are your thoughts on this one?

So I've gone completely selfish here.

I've not rooted this in any kind of reality

that would ever have happened,

but I would have absolutely loved

to see Rod Serling tackle something by Asimov, you know, something from the foundation series, like I-Robot.

I absolutely love robot.

I love the pure science fiction episodes of the Twilight Zone.

Anything that's set in space, there's a spaceship in it, anything like that, I love.
