    017 - Julia Marchese on I Know What You Need

    I welcome Julia Marchese to discuss Stephen King's short story and her adaptation of "I Know What You Need." There was an audio issue you will hear on my end of the conversation. My mic wasn't turned on properly. I was able to fix it somewhat in edits, but my end still sounds like I'm stuck in a time vortex, broadcasting from the 1950s.

    011 - My Top Stephen King Short Story - Novella Adaptations as of 2025

    Welcome to Short Bites: A Stephen King Podcast! In this special solo bonus episode, I’m sharing my favourite adaptations of Stephen King’s short stories and novellas. While Short Bites usually features conversations with fellow fans about King’s work, this time I’m flying solo to keep the episodes coming regularly. From The Mist to Maximum Overdrive, I count down my top picks (with a number one that might surprise you). Not every fan favourite makes the list — sometimes because I haven’t read them yet, and sometimes because they just didn’t grab me.  Email Short Bites: shortbitesskpod@gmail.com Check out the video versions on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ShortBitesAStephenKingPodcast Support the show!  Be a Deadlights Club Member and listen to this episode AD FREE (plus a lot more) on Patreon: patreon.com/jason_white Buy Me A Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/weirdreader
