KOI: A Twilight Zone Analysis Show - What You Need #12

Spoiler alert: We’re discussing important portions of this episode, so if you have not yet seen the episode, I encourage you to watch it first, and then come back and enjoy our analysis.

In this week's Twilight Zone episode, we're going to discuss "What You Need." Pedott is a gentleman with a very special gift: he can see into the future. He can reach into his box of wares and pull out exactly what you need to help you through a particularly difficult part of your life. But, when down-on-his-luck Fred Renard realizes what Pedott can do, he decides that he is going to finally try and get what he believe he is owed. In this episode, we're going to talk about the gift and/or curse of foresight; we'll discuss the importance of humor in life; and I'll make the argument for us to bring back a specific word that I believe WE need in my awe section. So, jump in to this episode with us, and if you like what you see/hear, join us on this journey through the Twilight Zone.
