  Queen of the Nile 31.07.2026 44min

  Tonight Tom Elliot looks at a story where goodbyes echo louder than the plot itself — a farewell to director John Brahm, a final bow for Charles Beaumont, and a reminder that even the brightest lights in The Twilight Zone eventually fade. But standing in stark contrast is Pamela Morris, a woman who refuses to say goodbye to anything, including life.In a tale where real‑world mortality meets fictional immortality, Tom steps once more into the fifth dimension… and he’s about to meet… The Queen of the Nile.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-twilight-zone-podcast--5856481/support.

  The Twilight Zone - Issue #5 - Silent Warning 25.04.2026 33min

  Tom and Zach head back to the comic book store to check out the final issue of IDW's Twilight Zone comic....or is it?A brilliant scientist uncovers a celestial enigma—a meteor submerged in the ocean's depths, pulsing with a cryptic audio signal that could determine the fate of the world. As she fights to decode this extraterrestrial transmission, she finds herself trapped between the cold urgency of hard data and the crushing weight of human apathy. It is a haunting descent into the "silent warning" of the deep, where the most dangerous threat isn't the mystery from the stars, but a society that refuses to listen until the static finally takes holdBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-twilight-zone-podcast--5856481/support.
