On today's episode, I'm chatting with television and film writer, Joseph Dougherty about his new book, Rod Serling at 100: One Writer's Acknowledgment. Joe and I talk all about how he got started in the entertainment business, and a bit about his time on the TV show Thirtysomething and his experience writing the HBO Film, Cast A Deadly Spell.


We end up diving into talking about why the Twilight Zone, created by Rod Serling, is still so important after all these years and how this TV show and showrunner has influenced so many different horror and sci-fi authors, actors, directors, and more.
