Summary
This episode is sponsored by Stykler and Stykler: Ablutionary Specialists and Sam begins with their endorsements. Sam thanks Beth for her tarot advice, and then proceeds with some Stykler and Stykler provided methods of keeping your home safe from malevolent spirits.

Sam reminds users to schedule their communing times on the forums, especially with the upcoming holidays, and reminds covenbabe666 that the radio station is not for group seances.

They talk about the excess of telegrams asking Sam to turn off the radio in the studio, which is strange given the lack of a radio set in the actual studio. Sam then talks about their dream diary, and their recurring nightmare of "The Rose Room", from which he awoke from with his arms covered in scratches.

Sam mentions the most recent bouquet from the Hatfield Karpos, which was sent as congratulations for Sam taking over from Madame Marie as radio host, though Sam denies that this is the case.

Following this, Sam notices that a phone has manifested in the studio and is ringing. He describes it as old and grimy, and decides to pick it up. It is Anna, who chastises Sam for being on air. Anna ends the call, and it is implied that she is on her way over.

Sam ends the episode by giving Stykler and Stykler's contact details (entirely in static).
