It’s time for us to place our bets with The Croupier as we listen to the series’ only surviving episode, “The Roman,” starring Vincent Price! The story features a husband and wife whose marriage is struggling when they suddenly find themselves lost at sea. Once there, their fate becomes strangely entwined with a mysterious Roman centurion! What does this somber Roman want? Can these disparate story elements come together to form a whole? Which comic book character from the 1980s are we going to name-check this time? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!

Not only was this an interesting episode, I didn’t see that ending coming either, which made the story even more compelling, and Vincent Price was great as usual—no complaints there, lol.
