Show Notes

Our thanks to our Mysterious Listener Mike for this visit to the Listener Library! Mike recommended we check out the episode of X Minus One entitled, "Mr. Costello, Hero." The script is an adaptation of Theodore Sturgeon’s short story about a space-faring ship's purser who encounters a passenger with a peculiar world view and a gift for manipulating others. After leaving the ship, the passenger's influence only seems to grow. What is ultimate impact of this man's machinations? How does he do it? Should Thanos have asked for a lawyer? Listen for yourself and find out!
