The Man of Screen Podcast Episode 20 – The Adventures of Superman: The Birthday Letter/The Mind Machine

In episode 20 of the Man of Screen podcast Mike is on his own to cover two episodes of the Adventures of Superman.

In the first episode, youll find out what happens when a little girl with a bad leg accidentally hears a crook murdered on the other end of phone line. The head crooks will send over their lovable dim-witted henchman slugger to dress up as Superman and abduct her while they figure out what she heard on the phone.

Also, what does the Daily Planet do that Mike finds self-serving. And just when you thought the French were lovers, a Frenchman might just “shoot you down like a dog.”

Then its on to some mind tampering as the head of an illegal gambling ring faces a Senatorial inquiry and uses a new-fangled hypno-therapy machine to alter their testimony. Find out what it takes for the machine to focus in on its prey and what will happen when the machines victim jacks a school bus right from above the driver.

Also, what is it about flying that can hurt your back?

So, join Mike Zummo for “The Birthday Letter” and “The Mind Machine.”

Next time: Mike will cover the next two episodes of The Adventures of Superman: “Rescue” and “The Secret of Superman.”
