Episode 103: Retrospective: Episode Six (May 2024)

Continuing old retrospectives on to EPISODE SIX! "Coffee, Tea and Cribbage"! The audio drama begins as Tony and Carolyn find the perfect place to stow away Angelique’s painting, and Carolyn ponders on a pen, wondering if it’s one that took up too much air time in contemplation long ago. Captain Daniel Gregg inquires of his old friend, Andre’ DuPres, well… what the heck is going on and why is he within this Sam Evans guy? Elizabeth continues to investigate the history of the Seaview property with a far more laid back Roger. And… AT LAST! Barnabas Collins and Dr. Julia Hoffman *finally* play that game of cribbage suggested in a likely forgotten episode, coming to certain conclusions about Victoria Winters, Maggie Evans, and Willie Loomis. Wadsworth looks on, amused, and concerned. As for Victoria and Peter, certain unfortunate circumstances have them fleeing from The Bates Motel in panic, of course… and this leads them… to another household, perhaps? And then the Narrative discussion!

Episode 102: Retrospective: Episode Five (April 2024)

Background sound provided by podcast Skull Bottle Sorcery #184 WITH kind permission! (On Soundcloud and youtube) Brief updates with me and why we’re still focusing on the earlier Radio Drama episodes in retrospection. This podcast coincides with the original script release date. Why “The Prisoner” element was added, it was NOT just-for-fun: It was due to Josette’s Music Box tune being lifted from an episode of The Prisoner. Trivia, plain and simple. The podcast  explains a few things relating to how the ghost of Captain Gregg manages to help in this interruption to Dark Shadows. Also topics on Josette’s earings being given to Maggie, but in this series it’s the butler, Wadsworth, who bestows them rather than Willie and for different reasons. Carolyn’s troubled discussion of trying to fill out college applications with Tony and why it’s troubled. A brief stop via “The Prisoner” and how it ties into the episode. Next Barnabas and Prof. Stokes engage in a discussion involving some befuddling correspondence, as well as the whereabouts of Willie Loomis. Meanwhile, the Evans Cottage is busy with Maggie and Sam discussing her possible employment as David’s new governess, as well as her soured relationship with Joe. Upon Maggie leaving for her waitress shift, Capt Gregg appears and much is revealed of a supernatural bent after that. Angelique arrives to take back her painting but… Whoops! …wait…Where is it? Further explanation of how Captain Gregg and the reincarnation of Andre duPres can know each other... Barnabas, waking up from a dream in a setting from “The Prisoner”, proceeds to the coffee shop with the aid of Wadsworth. Maggie and Barnabas have a catch up discussion of all the bizarre  circumstances, as well as her trepidation about switching employment. On the West Coast, Peter and Victoria’s road trip bring them to a familiar location also brought to the screen in the 1960’s. All seems fine enough until the proprietor reveals his name. Then: Narrative Discussion!
