Episode 68 falls the day before Friday the 13th and this spooky day is intertwined throughout the show.
It begins with a somewhat creepy tale, though more sad and unfortunate.  The West Barnstable Brick Company was a giant of Cape Cod business for more than half a century.  Today all that remains are the bricks themselves which are collector's items, an overgrown area hiding bits of the old factory, and the story of what happened.
The town of Hull, Massachusetts is a crown jewel of the South Shore.  Though small in actual size there is so much packed in to every bit of it.  Beaches, old forts, carousels, high-class hotels, beautiful ocean views, delicious food and so much more. Find out all about it on this week's Road Trip.
The Friday the 13th franchise has been scaring audiences for more than forty years.  There has been a dozen films and Jason Voorhees has become a horror icon.  However did you know that in the 1980's there was an early attempt at a Friday the 13th video game?  Made for the Nintendo this game promised to bring the slasher series to the video game medium.  We go Back in the Day to see if it lived up to the hype.
There have been many larger than life bands from the Grunge and Alternative genre in the 1990's.  There have also been some that burst on to the scene and then faded away.  This week's Top 5 looks back at some of those lesser known bands and the music they created.
There's also a new This Week In History and Time Capsule looking back at the eradication of smallpox.
