4.4 Well and Truly Ghosted

Spirits are high and spooky season is nigh -- let's scare up a few cuties for this special Halloween episode! This week Frank and Joanne are "exorcizing" their rights, driven to desperate measures to rid their studio of its meddlesome poltergeist. There's also a pretty fundamental costume mix-up, it'll take more than a sugar cube to butter up Ruby this time. Meet a forgetful barfly channelling Karloff, a mistaken identity that might get murderous, a hottie lost on a campsite, and one fella who's really been playing the (potter's) field.

Our callers this week included the talents of Levi Penley, Steve Hayes, Kat Letwin and Kristi Boulton. Our story editor is Aliza Brugger.
