Very informative podcast, very intelligent and engaging.
Steve Did It (1986) For Us
Finally caught up to date with this podcast! Perfect listening for pulling through my own dissertation by balancing deeply considered academic thinking with taking the cockadoodie outta that schmuck hack Bob Dylan. It reminds me that analysing genrework is fun which is a necessity!! But, anyway, as a Lovecraft fan and not a music fan I spent so many episode’s constantly frustrated at how our darling boy points out all of the intertext with Uncle Howie’s works but neglecting to point out the Crimson King to King in Yellow intertext. They clearly are aware, it’s so obvious (no face? No face!)! Only for it to be revealed that it was a dang Jojo-reference all along! Not only am I a fool, but a whole darned jester!
Well, I’ll take that. But, by gosh, as someone whose genre focus is on mystery fiction hearing Cameron repeatedly call the Langoliers a “locked room mystery” felt like more than enough punishment for my folly. I get we’re calling one-room, parlor room plays locked rooms or such but putting those words together like that was just cruel! Anyway, the only podcast I’m going through so voraciously and my family is growing so sick of hearing me drop Stephen King facts from the ‘Stephen King’ podcast. Especially since I’m still yet to read any of his books. I hope Stephen King lets this Sisyphean delight come to an end! Keep doing it for Steve (and us)!
Incredible
There is nothing like reading a whole king short story collection, painstakingly notating what my favourite stories were and savouring my reactions, only for me to finally listen to the episode and realise I had the exact opposite opinion to the hosts on every single story.
Five Stars.
