120: The Outsider with Dani Fernandez

The Kingcast ·

2022/05/04

Sometimes these episodes feature deep dives into King's writing and examine the subtext of its cinematic adaptation and sometimes these episodes use the title at hand as a jumping off point for a chaotic conversation. This episode is the latter.

103:54

119: The Tommyknockers with Ashley Lyle and Bart...

The Kingcast ·

2022/04/27

If we're talking about buried alien spaceships, metal plates in heads, killer soda machines, a protagonist who is both a drunk and a wife-killer... you know what that means! That's right! It's time to talk Tommyknockers.

88:55

118: ???? with Bill Hader

The Kingcast ·

2022/04/20

This episode has everything: Bill Hader talking about working on It, a constantly shifting conversation that never stays on a single topic for more than 5 minutes, casual mentions of some really big name Stephen King fans, what reading King at a young age can mean to a creative kid and MTV's Dan Cortese.

108:05

117: The Man in the Black Suit with Anthony Breznican

The Kingcast ·

2022/04/13

The Man in the Black Suit was something of a turning point for Stephen King. Published in The New Yorker in 1994, this short story went on to win many prestigious awards, including the O. Henry Award for short fiction and seemed to singlehandedly turn critical perception of the best selling author around.

118:41

116: The Night Flier with Elan Gale

The Kingcast ·

2022/04/06

In the late '90s the great character actor Miguel Ferrer starred in an HBO Original Movie adaptation of Stephen King's The Night Flier as a sleazy tabloid reporter on the trail of a Cessna pilot who also happens to be a vampire and it has become a favorite of the Kingcast boys.

69:01

115: BONUS: An Interview with Michael Whelan

The Kingcast ·

2022/04/02

Michael Whelan's paintings and illustrations have graced the covers and interior pages of the best genre authors. We're talking Ray Bradbury, Harlan Ellison, Edgar Rice Burroughs, HP Lovecraft and, yes, Mr. Stephen King.

74:35

114: Bonus: The Moving Finger with Wynter Mitchell

The Kingcast ·

2022/04/02

A finger pops out of a bathroom sink's drain and drives the poor bastard who lives in that apartment out of his mind. That is the topic in today's surprise bonus episode drop.

89:22

113: Desperation with Jeremy Slater

The Kingcast ·

2022/03/30

The little town of Desperation, Nevada has fallen on hard times and that was before an ancient evil decided to take over the body of the town's gentle giant cop. Today's topic is Desperation, with a little talk about its twinner book, The Regulators, for good measure.

103:34

112: Joyland with Chelsea Stardust

The Kingcast ·

2022/03/23

One of the rare Stephen King books that hasn't been adapted, Joyland is a quick, breezy read about a broken-hearted teenager who works at a dilapidated (and haunted) amusement park where he finds new love and even a ghost or two.

87:45

111: Children of the Corn with The Boulet Brothers

The Kingcast ·

2022/03/16

Children of the Corn follows a couple as they investigate a small, isolated Nebraska town and find that it has been taken over by a murderous cult of corn-monster worshipping children. It has many Stephen King benchmarks, like creepy kids and... well, corn-based horror.

68:16

110: The Jaunt with Patton Oswalt

The Kingcast ·

2022/03/09

Ready to take a stroll through one of Stephen King's most f*cked up short stories with The Kingcast boys and one of the funniest comedians working today? If your answer's yes then, boy, do we have some good news for you.

109: A Conversation With Stephen King

The Kingcast ·

2022/03/02

The Kingcast has been going strong for nearly two years, bringing in some amazing guests to break down the work of one of our top living authors. It's about time Vespe and Wampler go straight to the horse's mouth, don't you think?

108:25

108: Dreamcatcher with Blank Check's Griffin Newman...

The Kingcast ·

2022/02/23

Dreamcatcher is one of Stephen King's least favorite of his own novels, but how does it stack up with the co-hosts of a very popular film podcast? This story of a group of childhood friends battling an extra-terrestrial menace with psychic powers and a little help from their deeply problematic friend, Duddits, should have been a non-stop pinata party, but there are some surprise fans in the mix for this discussion.

87:52

107: The Shining with Thomas Lennon

The Kingcast ·

2022/02/16

Stephen King's first full-blown masterpiece, and the novel that moved him firmly to the top of the best seller list, is front and center once more. The topic: The Shining. The guest... well, someone comfortable wearing some really short shorts.

120:12

106: The Mangler 2 with DC Pierson

The Kingcast ·

2022/02/09

Did you know they made a sequel to The Mangler that doesn't involve a haunted laundry press at all? Well, now you do. Instead of an evil laundry machine the sequel takes the absolutely bonkers step of making it an evil computer virus that takes over a boarding school run by Lance Henriksen and boy is it a crazy watch.

111:11

105: The Overlook Hotel with Glen Mazzara

The Kingcast ·

2022/02/02

Way back in the halcyon year of 2014, Warner Bros attempted a prequel to The Shining and one man rose to the challenge, crafting a truly messed up screenplay called The Overlook Hotel which tells the story of the family that built the dastardly hotel.
