    Shazam! "Out of Focus" October 16, 1976 ​An aspiring filmmaker captures a robbery on film. Now, the thieves are out to get the film, but he sees it as his ticket to success in a local film festival.  Can Captain Marvel and Isis ensure this film makes it to the screen while keeping the young Spielberg safe? It's the final episode of the Shazam! series as John and Richard discuss the location of this particular episode, the professionalism of Michael Gray, the clunky resolution to a story that Isis could have solved with a simple incantation, and Shazam/Isis fandom.  Plus: We have two flashbacks of our own in this episode! ​It's all here and we want to hear from you on what you think of the episode.  Write us as ShazamIsisPodcast@gmail.com. ​Moral: "We've all been faced by temptation - a chance to win a contest, maybe cheat on an exam or make some easy money in a dishonest way, but most of  us know better than to fall for things like that.  In today's story, Jim learned what Zeus meant when he said, 'Those who act dishonestly to win, walk in disgrace, perhaps even in danger.'  So play it safe and play it smart.  Don't be fooled by temptation.  The honest way is the best way." Guest Cast Andrew Stevens as Jim Nancy Morgan as Kathy Richard Stanley as Marty Cliff Wilson as Len and Joanna Cameron as Andrea Thomas/Isis

"The Sound of a Different Drummer" October 9, 1976 Curtis is a young man blessed with great shortstop skills in baseball, but he prefers to focus his practice time on being a violinist.  His teammates have other ideas and will stop at nothing to get him to play in an important game.  Will Billy, Mentor, Captain Marvel, and Maury Wills himself be able to make this situation right? It's the penultimate episode of the Shazam! series as John and Richard discuss the waning years (in John's opinion) of baseball, the missed potential in the cat, Polecat, and which actor the Mego Shazam! figure looks like. ​  It's all here and we want to hear from you on what you think of the episode.  Write us as ShazamIsisPodcast@gmail.com. ​ Moral: "Billy: Maury Wills is one of the most respected men in baseball, not just because he was a great player, mostly because he respects others.  You know, in some ways, all of us are different, but in one way we're all alike.  We all want people to like and to respect us. Maury Wills: That's right, Billy. And the way to bring that about is to treat others as you would like them to treat you.  It's called, do unto others and it means, if you give respect, you'll get it back."   Guest Cast Eric Laneuville as Curtis Benny Medina as Dennis David Doremus as Jerry Lenore Kingston as Adele Sauber Ed Fury as Guard and Maury Wills as Maury Wills

    ISIS - "The Class Clown"

    Isis "The Class Clown" September 25, 1976 ​Isis tries to convince a young man that while his practical jokes may be humorous and have no malicious intent, they can lead to disaster. We have to ask, didn't we cover this story in the last season?  And didn't the previous story, "Funny Gal" do it better?  John and Richard sit down to discuss what is a technically proficient story that hits all the beats, but in the end feels like a retread of themes from the previous season.  In addition, they also talk about the unlikability of the guest character. ​It's all here and we want to hear from you on what you think of the episode.  Write us as ShazamIsisPodcast@gmail.com. ​Moral: "Practical jokes may have no harmful intent, but when not thought out can lead to disaster." ​ Guest Cast Alvin Kupperman as Rudy David Cole as Stanley and Albert Reed as Dr. Barnes
