After Dark - Halloween & Fireworks

APOSTROPHE PODCAST NETWORK
About this episode

“Let me state the case for Hallowe’en”

 

The nights are getting longer, the air is getting colder, so this week on the pod, two stories about the season and about finding light in the darkness. In Halloween, Steph learns to trust her instincts (while Dave learns that a painted watermelon will never be a satisfactory replacement for a pumpkin); and in Fireworks, Sam and Dave are mesmerized by a truck load of contraband.
