Episode 48 - 3x04 Slumber

This week Zach is joined by Nancy Petru to discuss the forty eighth episode of Smallville, "Slumber." They talk Clark's inexplicable desire for a truck, the FIRST use of "The Traveler" as a proper noun on the series, A Nightmare on Elm Street connections, and of course the R.E.M. gimmick of the episode. The latest Always Hold On To Smallville featured the music of R.E.M. from the new CD, R.E.M. In Time: The Best of 1988–2003.
