  • I don’t believe Stephen King exists but they’ve still got me listening

    Look, I grew up thinking Stephen King was just East Coast Bigfoot just like the rest of you. But these two respectable scholars keep trying to prove me wrong. They haven’t convinced me yet, but I’m willing to keep listening until the end before I decide if the great publishing Cabal just used the title to sell spooks to kids. Plus they have a great sense of humor and pretty solid taste in music…mostly.
