  • Hearts In Suspension (2016)
    Aug 22 2024
    Constant Listeners, yes, we originally planned to drop our Bazaar of Bad Dreams coverage this week. However, given Sai King’s renewed interest in Hearts in Suspension, we opted to unlock our coverage of the collection from The Stephen King Archives. For those not in the know, The Stephen King Archives is our Patreon exclusive imprint in which your Losers search the vault of Stephen King material – dusting off unpublished short stories, long-forgotten interviews, coffee-stained manuscripts, and alternate versions of your favorite tales. This particular entry was recorded in December 2021 - in conjunction with our Hearts in Atlantis coverage - - and sees us discussing Hearts in Suspension in full. Published in 2016 and edited by King's longtime mentor Jim Bishop, the book features an original essay by King entitled "Five to One, One in Five", four installments of "King's Garbage Truck", a reprint of King's novella "Hearts in Atlantis", 12 essays by fellow students and friends from King's college days, and a gallery of period-specific photographs and documents. We time travel back to UMO and talk about it all. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • CrichtonCast: The Andromeda Strain (1969)
    Aug 16 2024
    Today we're unlocking our very first episode of CrichtonCast, our Michael Crichton spinoff podcast exclusive to The Barrens. In this installment, host Randall Colburn is joined by Losers Dan Caffrey and Justin Gerber to discuss The Andromeda Strain, the crunchy, science-forward supernatural virus story that propelled Crichton, then a Harvard Medical graduate in his mid-20s, into literary stardom. Together they weigh in on Crichton's early life, the book's origins, its clever use of verisimilitude, intellectual distrust, the charms of Robert Wise's ultra-faithful 1971 adaptation, and the ways in which it dovetails with King's own pandemic tale, The Stand.

Too much talk about nothing....

I listened to the podcast episode of Desperation 1 & 2. I understand discussing what you read, but I felt like it turned into a "let's see if we can out talk each other".

Great to listen to people dork out on King

This is the perfect podcast to listen to if you love reading Stephen King and don't have enough people to talk to about his books! Have you have found yourself at the end of a four day binge after reading some eight-hundred page behemoth that ends with some bizarre rant about women's lib and a hijacked airplane flown into a building full of people and thought to yourself, "I wonder what someone else thought of that crazy ending."? I've found listening to these fellow nerds (I mean that as a compliment of coarse) prattle on about Kings novels after having gorged on them myself both quite rewarding and helpful for the digestive track that is my mind. I downloaded audible to listen to some audiobooks while on a car drive and have since cancelled it due to the fact that I enjoy reading my books the old fashioned way (even if by kindle sometimes). Despite cancelling my subscription to audible I have not uninstalled it from my phone because of this very podcast. Thanks constant losers.

Fun to listen to, lots of long episodes

I usually listen to this in the car, and sort of like King's books, I love the long episodes.

some of them might have read the book?

I think that their reviews are shallow and full of pop culture stuff that has no relevance in conversations about King's works. Very little depth of discussion as of roughly episode 10 but they seem to enjoy each other's company, so can't give them less than 2 stars.
