S2E16 – A Penny For Your Thoughts – Twilight Zone

Have you ever wanted to read minds? We discuss exactly that this week with the Dick York classic, “A Penny for Your Thoughts”!

My guest this week was the irreplaceable Matt Raimo, fellow Geekader, and great guy overall! You can find his show, Ring the Bell over on Geekade and Youtube.

We talk about this in the show, and I wanted to make it clear… here is the definition for “inimitable”

Now, onto the show!

After he overhears a coworkers plot to rob the bank they work at, he informs his manager. When the coworker leaves the bank vault, he’s stopped by security and searched… but has no money on him. His coworker says, “yeah, of course I WANT to rob the bank, but I’m not gonna” so he doesn’t. Although Darren gets fired, he’s immediately rehired and, thanks to the encouragement of a female coworker, he gets a promotion, too!
