This episode was very good. Expected outcomes but very entertaining to listen to. I love Nat Polen from one of my all time favorites, Episode 278 "Return to Shadow Lake".

@Will D,
Yes, they did the same story with Larry Haines in the role of the insane judge. I personally think the judge in this story is creepier than Larry Haines' portrayal. Larry Haines sounds too nice somehow, lol!

Does anyone else find Fred Gwynnes "lip smacking" to be annoying as heck? I noticed it in earlier episodes and its either getting worse or I'm just paying more attention. He smacks his lips before every line.

I felt this was one of the weaker episodes, insofar as suspense goes, because we start out early on knowing the who, and the how, and by act 2 the why… which itself is weak since his madness seems to coincide with a lack of calories in his diet? I guess there’d be an element of mystery to the original listeners as to where the quotes are coming from but for us the title rather gives it away. Still, I’m happy to have listened to the end since I didn’t know GdM was insane, himself.
