Times are weird. There's a virus going around. People are staying inside. Answers are sparse. Sound familiar? For weeks now, Stephen King's The Stand has been on the mind, so what better time than now to revisit the 1994 miniseries. Join Losers Randall Colburn, Dan Caffrey, Michael Roffman, and McKenzie Gerber as they make their way out West. Who's going to Boulder, CO? Who's heading to Las Vegas, NV? You'll have to follow along to find out. Follow us on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | PatreonHosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Losers take off the cuffs and kick back on the cabin couch to revisit Mike Flanagan's Gerald's Game. Together, they discuss what makes the source material so complicated for the screen, Bruce Greenwood's unbelievable physique, and why the dog should have been voiced by Jim Belushi. Follow us on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | PatreonHosted on Acast.

The Losers head upstate to a remote cabin to have a little R&R. Things don't go as planned, though. There isn't a Necronomicon involved or anything, but mistakes are made and blood is shed. In the distance, a dog barks. There's a chainsaw, too. Yeah. Save them, will you? Bring some snacks, maybe even a locksmith, and head to the cabin as Losers Michael Roffman, Lara Unnerstall, Dan Pfleegor, Ahse Digg, and The Horror Virgin's Jenn Adams review Stephen King's 1992 thriller Gerald's Game. Together, they discuss how the novel reflects some of King's sharpest writing to date, particularly involving female protagonists, and also share a number of revelations pertaining to their own lives. Also: Yes, there are Steve Miller Band jokes. Follow us on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | PatreonHosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Losers head into the caves to find El Cuco. As they collect rocks and stones, they offer their final thoughts on the first season of HBO's The Outsider. Bonus: They also offer a Coronavirus update with plenty of Stand bits. Special guest includes Jenn Adams from The Horror Virgin podcast. Follow us on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | PatreonHosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Losers evade the shapeshifting, bipedal werecats roaming around Stephen King's batshit crazy Sleepwalkers. Together, they discuss Mick Garris' direction, the insanity of King's screenplay, and the incest-fueled poundcake that leaves them reaching for Tums. It's a wild episode full of howling and scowling. Special guest includes Jenn Adams of The Horror Virgin, who adds some much-needed balance. Follow us on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | PatreonHosted on Acast.

The Losers head to the CDC to evade the Coronavirus. While waiting they debate if it's the return of Captain Trips and unpack a Bag of Bones. Topics include: Cocaine King re-imaginings, potential Florida monsters for King's Dominion, and which King creations will be on par with Dracula, Frankenstein, and John Schnatter. So, tag your Flu Buddy and listen along. Follow us on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | PatreonHosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Before the Losers leave Castle Rock for good, they head over to the local theatre to catch Fraser C. Heston's 1993 adaptation of Needful Things. Afterwards, they discuss the film at Nan's over a slice of pie and a cup of warm coffee. From Ed Harris' portrayal of Sheriff Alan Pangborn to Patrick Doyle's spirited score, nothing is left off the table. Follow us on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | PatreonHosted on Acast.

Things are getting a little heated in Castle Rock. Leland Gaunt's having a fire sale over at Needful Things, and the town is losing their minds. Fortunately, the Losers are safely shacked up in the Mellow Tiger, where they can continue discussing Stephen King's epic 1991 classic. Chapters include: Intro, Misery (4:30), Word Processor of the Gods (33:00), The Sematary (53:00), Poundcake (1:20:00), King's Dominion (1:37:00), and Final Thoughts (1:52:00). Follow us on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | PatreonHosted on Acast.
