EPISODE 200! WITH SPECIAL GUEST 2-TIME OSCAR WINNER FOR FX - BRIAN WADE 🏆🏆

In this 3-hour-long 200th episode, The Op shares the mic with 2-time Oscar-winning FX Artist and Creature Creator, Brian Wade! Join The Op as he fan-girls over Brian's 40+ year career in movie makeup and FX, lending his wizardry to amazing movie icons like The Demogorgon, The Terminator, The Thing, and many more... even Stuart Little :)Together, they land on Mersey Island, just off the Essex coast, northeast of London, connected to the mainland by a single strip of tarmac called the Strood — a causeway so low that twice a day the tide rolls in and swallows it whole. No bridge, no tunnel, no alternate route. It is the kind of tight, physically separated community where people know each other's cars, each other's dogs, each other's business, which is precisely why, when a quiet and well-liked local man was arrested in connection with a double murder, somewhere between thirty and forty of his neighbors immediately stepped forward to testify on his behalf. The lead investigator said she had never seen a number like that before in her career — not once — and that the gap between what the community believed about this man and what had actually been happening inside one house on the island is what the entire case runs on.The Op walks through all of it — the island, the family, the architecture of the deception, the fake personas and the voice recordings, the poisoning that lasted two years, the investigation that nearly pointed the wrong way, and the moment it didn't. He is joined, for the first time on a case episode, by a guest: two-time Oscar-winning effects artist Brian Wade, who rode every twist of this one in real time and made for the most memorable co-chair the Operator could have asked for on episode 200.Hugs ❤️----------------------------------------CREDITS:Narration – The OperatorResearch & writing – The OperatorCreative direction – The OperatorProduction – The OperatorIntro Music – The Operator...did we mention The Operator? 🙃----------------------------------------SOCIAL LINKS
