Stephen King Cast

Welcome back for another analysis of a brand spankin' new Stephen King publication, this time the 2020 novella collection If It Bleeds.  Please write in at anytime to stephenkingcast@yahoo.com 

In this week's episode, I discuss the conclusion to The Talisman while discussing my excitement for the recent news that Mike Flanagan will be directing an adaptation of Revival. For any thoughts on Stephen King, write into stephenkingcast@yahoo.com and as always, if you have a spare minute on your hands, leave a review on iTunes. Thanks, everyone!

As endings go, this one is BLEAK! So let's debate whether bleak=good on this installment as I continue to examine the conclusions of King's books to determine whether or not he deserves his reputation for not being able to end his books. 

Hop on in and take this episode for a spin. Let's see how we feel about the ending to Christine! 

Welcome back! This week, I discuss the conclusion of The Gunslinger, read some e-mails and give some recommendations to keep you busy while we all self-quarantine.  Feel free to write into stephenkingcast@yahoo.com

Welcome back, everyone! Cujo. . .good ending? Bad ending? Do I like it? Do I not? Find out this week! And please write into stephenkingcast@yahoo.com for any and all thoughts.

Welcome back, everyone! In this episode, I review the ending to The Stand (pretty relevant) as well as the conclusion to HBO's The Outsider while managing to squeeze in some listener e-mail. Stay safe, everyone!

And here we are, talking about the Dead Zone. 

I continue my examination on the endings of King's books with his oft-discussed conclusion to The Shining! What are your thoughts on the ending? What are your thoughts on the ending to The Dead Zone, next week's episode? Let me know by writing into stephenkingcast@yahoo.com

Welcome back with another entry in our newest adventure: examining the endings of Stephen King's works in the chronological order of publication!  This week brings us to Salem's Lot. How does the ending hold up? Check it out!

Welcome to the next phase of the Stephen Kingcast! From here on out, I will focus on the endings of Stephen King's works in the hopes that I can dispel the notion that he can't end his novels successfully. On today's episode, I examine the conclusion of Carrie!

Hello all! Welcome to this week's episode. I have a big announcement to drop. But first, I share some listener e-mail, some iTunes reviews, discuss my general thoughts on The Outsider and quickly share my experience with Doctor Sleep: The Director's Cut. And then I get to the announcement. 

Welcome back! Let's talk about listener e-mail, some iTunes reviews, gush over Holly Gibney and get ready for Locke and Key! February is a great month for King fans!

 It's good! I love it! Tune in to find out why! Be warned that I read listener e-mail and iTunes reviews before getting to my thoughts. 

I didn't think I was going to do it, but I did! Here is a top ten of the most important/best/impactful/influential works or adaptations of the works of a Stephen King property from the last decade. The beginning of the decade started out a little rocky, but as we head into 2020, he's back on top, possibly sitting larger than ever before.  2010-2019 gave us a lot of Stephen King content (including this podcast!), so plug in and hear me out as I rank my top ten works of Stephen King over the last decade!

Welcome back! As promised in the last episode, I conclude my thoughts on Full Throttle with an in-depth review of "In the Tall Grass," both the short story and the 2019 Netflix movie. How do they compare? Find out this week in the Stephen Kingcast!

I take a break from Stephen King this week to celebrate Joe Hill's recent collection of short stories, Full Throttle. If you haven't checked out Joe Hill's previous works, please do so! And if you haven't had a chance to treat yourself to Full Throttle, give yourself an early Christmas present. It's worth it. Find out all of my thoughts on each of the stories here! Well, every story except one. I did not review In The Tall Grass, because I will publish a separate episode next week in which I review both that story and the recent Netflix adaption of the same name. So stay tuned for that one! In the meantime, enjoy! As always, feel free to write in at stephenkingcast@yahoo.com and please leave a review on iTunes when you get a chance. It's greatly appreciated.

It's a week late, but better late than never! Here are all my thoughts on Mike Flanagan's Doctor Sleep!  For additional thoughts on Doctor Sleep, make sure you check out my review of King's 2013 novel.

Welcome back! In this easy, breezy ep, I turn my thoughts towards episode 2 of Castle Rock, Season 2.
