It's Halloween, and things are getting a little darker on No Good Options! In this extended spooky special, Darren and Sam are joined by both Kara and Emily for four horrifying hypothetical scenarios. They prepare for life after being bitten by a werewolf, decide what kind of undead creature they'd return as, choose which horror movie killer they'd become, and work out who would survive if the entire group found themselves trapped in a slasher film.
Along the way, they discuss werewolf transformations, suspiciously attractive wolf packs, haunted dolls, fashionable skeletons, Darren's plans to become a poltergeist, the questionable appeal of becoming a serial killer and why Kara might be the most terrifying person in the room. Meanwhile, Sam spends the episode dressed as a banana while Emily becomes increasingly concerned about Darren's enthusiasm for murder.
Happy Halloween from No Good Options!

In this episode of No Good Options, Darren, Sam and Emily decide who around the table they'd body swap with for a week, design their dream homes with no shortage of questionable architectural choices, and tackle a listener question involving a phone line that can give you the true answer to absolutely anything, provided you're willing to endure the world's worst call centre.
Along the way, they discuss the realities of swapping bodies, Sam's decrepit body, new-castles, Grand Designs drinking games, Darren's alleged wealth, Emily's hatred of call centres and just how much of humanity Sam is willing to save while everyone else gets increasingly annoyed. As always, three simple questions somehow descend into the usual nonscense.
