There's always a devil, a man, a deal to be made. For how sacred a soul is supposed to be, many don't seem to have issues with signing away their eternal fate for a bit of mortal pleasure. Martin is one such person, trying like many have before to get one over on the Adversary and avoid that Hell-Bound train. He can stop the ride at any time, but does he really want that? Sam and Jack discuss the iterations of the Faustian bargain, Halloween traditions, and one nominee that everyone seems to think really should have won.Recommendations:“Beat the Devil” by Kris Kristofferson“Devil Went Down to Georgia” by The Charlie Daniels Band“A Soldier’s Tale” by Igor Stravinsky"Friends on the Other Side" from The Princess and the Frog"The Devil's Hands are Idle Playthings" from FuturamaPuella Magi Madoka Magic animated by ShaftNext Episode: 1956's "The Star" by Arthur C.
