Episode 215-The Top 10 Works of Stephen King of The Past Decade
Saturday Dec 28, 2019
Saturday Dec 28, 2019
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!

Episode 213-Full Throttle
Sunday Dec 15, 2019
Sunday Dec 15, 2019
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.

Hello all! In anticipation of Mike Flanagan's film of the same name, I've decided to re-release my review of King's book. I won't be able to see the movie until next week, so I hope that this tides you over. With the positive buzz surrounding the movie, I'm glad that a lot of people are re-examining how they originally felt about the book. For all of my thoughts on why this story works, check out my review and stay tuned for all of my thoughts on the movie in an upcoming episode!
