Astronauts on a voyage to stretch the mark of humanity, only to find themselves crashed on an asteroid, or so they think? This week we're talking about the Twilight Zone episode "I Shot an Arrow into the Air." We'll discuss whether or not we actually can land on an asteroid--and possibly if we can live on, or in, one; we'll take a stroll over to Sigmund Freud's house and get a better sense of how our astronauts are affected by the reality principle and the pleasure principle; and I'll reveal to you my moment of awe. So, if you love Rod Serling and the Twilight Zone, strap in, and consider joining us on this journey through the fifth dimension.

William Sturka, a perfectly normal man in many respects: family, friends, a job. However, he's walking around with a big secret. Namely, a ware is coming, one that will ultimately mean the end of the species. All he can do is grab his loved ones and friends and make a mad-dash for a means of escape. In this week's episode of The Twilight Zone, we take a look at one of my favorite episodes: "Third from the Sun." It's a story that seems even more relevant today than, perhaps, even when Rod Serling introduced it in 1960. We'll talk about how informed/pessimistic Serling's audience was about atomic destruction at the time of the episode; we'll question whether or not Sturka's profession as a scientist alters the way we view his character; and I'll give you my moment of awe. So, grab your keys, and let's get this door to the fifth dimension open.

What if you could shapeshift and change your face to look however you want it to. What would you do with that power? If you're our protagonist in this week's Twilight Zone episode, Arch Hammer, you'd spend your time being petty, breaking hearts, and stealing from men who should probably not be trifled with. But, the Twilight Zone has a way of balancing itself out--as Mr. Hammer will learn all too late. In this episode of Key of Imagination, we're taking a deep look at the episode "The Four of us Are Dying." We'll discuss shapeshifting, plastic/cosmetic surgery, and deepfakes with AI. Additionally, I'll give my rating, and I'll reveal my moment of awe for this episode.
