  • My Favorite Podcast… and it’s psychic

    This is the only pod I’ve ever re-listened to episodes of. You guys have gotten me to watch at least 40 Steve adaptations over the past 2 years and I read Salem’s Lot (hey Michael, it’s good…) I read Bag of Bones & It back in the day too. Your chemistry is terrific, you guys are funny and thoroughly entertaining and insightful, and I appreciate this podcast more than I could ever say. I’ve recommended it to at least 15 friends and 1 aunt. Maximum Overdrive is an awful movie though that’s the onl... more

  • A Podcast About A Haunted Printer

    In the review of Duma Key (the Stephen King novel featuring a couple or crazy frogs), the boys discuss a game characters play in the book where they try to sneak song lyrics into conversation. At which point, Cameron cleverly and subtly namedrops ‘The Annoying Thing’ — once again reminding us of his love of the iconic Crazy Frog. If I could, I would give this podcast 6-stars too.

  • Like Audible for Critical Thinking

    I started listening to this pod as a way to finally motivate me to read the danged Dark Tower. This did not come to pass. Instead I realised that my hypothetical interest and presumed appreciation for Uncle Steve’s prose was hindered by, you know, actually having to do the damn thing.

    Instead, I have elected to sit back, and enjoy the ride provided by these esteemed hosts. Gaining insight which would be beyond me, and musical critiques I didn’t realise I wanted, this is, indeed, the audiobook ... more

  • Fun and Fascinating

    Every time someone mentions reading Stephen King I have to recommend this podcast in return. Cameron and Michael are so enjoyable to listen to that as soon as an episode is over I miss their voices and want to start the next book in my King journey just so I can listen to them again. Their insights and background information on King and the books is fascinating; it is not uncommon for me to enjoy the Just King Things episode more that it’s companion book.
