Episode 13: "Freeway to Death"
"FREEWAY TO DEATH"
AIRED: DECEMBER 16, 1966
The Hornet and Mike Axford teaming up? How is this possible? When Britt orders Mike to work with the Hornet in order to bring down a construction racket, Mike has his own ideas that could threaten his life. John and Jim are in agreement that this is a "Must Watch" episode, but they're not entirely sure why. Is it the appearance of Jeffrey Hunter? Is it the Black Beauty versus three bulldozers? Is it the Hornet Mortars? Is it the Hornet and Mike working together? Take a listen and maybe you can help them figure it out. Also, the two take a moment to talk about the late Van Williams and his legacy of The Green Hornet.
