Great Story!!! They say SHRINKS have a screw loose somewhere... I cannot imagine what it takes to do her job. - incredible fortitude to go alone to fetch a psychotic who is going to ...do what?
The doctor is one amazing human being.
Funny thing, this aired a week before I was born

That was certainly one of the most interesting episodes I've listened to.

Story reminded me a little of Solaris

Shit, yesterday was a solitary kind of day, I played 4 games and lost ,song was on singing about solitary , and put this book out . Neat !

[@maxwellmorgan8014]

I played 2 games and lost , and in the middle of the 3rd game I lost Scoot comes walking in the doorway and ask me if I was playing solitaire . That was when I heard the word in a song, I heard it two more times after that ( double 2 moment in the 3rd ) , I killed game 4 in the middle . What could the cards be saying ? After the 3rd horseman then comes Death ,it is a bad Oman ,be warned, I don't want to die in a word war 3! Do you?

I think it's William Redfield.

[@adamredfield]

@@vestibulate Yup. That's Bill Redfield 100 percent.

[@vestibulate]

@@adamredfield Was he your father?

[@adamredfield]

@@vestibulate yes. :)

[@vestibulate]

@@adamredfield He was a superb, versatile actor and a terrific raconteur. I have a copy of Shirley Clarke's "The Connection" in which he featured, and what a tremendous performance he gave. It's a cliché , but he was taken much too soon from us, and especially from you and your family. Best wishes.

Great story. But I'm almost sixty six and would rather not be referred to as "the old bat" !

[@dundeedolphin]

These stories are great. But the sexism is quite startling.

[@ufosrus]

They were written at the height of sexism, the fifties and sixties.
