We discuss Gene Roddenberry's 1977 television pilot "Spectre" about an Occult Detective (Robert Culp) and his rational-minded medical doctor sidekick/partner (Gig Young). Sound familiar? We're looking at you, X-Files. The duo do detective things and battle an ancient Mesopotamian demon. 

We interview esteemed author and historian Aaron Leonard and pick his brain about his new book "Meltdown Expected: Crisis, Disorder, and Upheaval at the end of the 1970s." The title really says it all.
