    An Interview with William Sadler

    William Sadler has been in some of the best Stephen King adaptations, including the Frank Darabont Trifecta of The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, and The Mist and now he's on The Kingcast to discuss all that plus detours to his starring role in Tales From The Crypt: Demon Knight, his oddly nude bad guy in Die Hard 2, Death in Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey, and his latest film, a tongue-in-cheek genre flick called The Yeti, which is out on digital April 10th. Sadler is one of our best character actors and has some great stories to tell about his time working in the business. Plus we find out he has a secret Stephen King performance that we never knew about!

    Stand By Me/The Body with Wil Wheaton

    I hope you brought your sad tissues with you today because this episode gets emotional real dang quickly. Our guest is Wil Wheaton who is returning to The Kingcast to talk about all things Stand By Me and The Body as Rob Reiner's film celebrates its 40th anniversary and Wil steps behind the mic and into adult Gordy LaChance's shoes as he narrates a new audiobook of Stephen King's novella, The Body. We recorded this just two days after Wheaton appeared on stage at the Oscars for Rob Reiner's memorial and let's just say the emotions are still running strongly, but luckily for us Wil is very open about what he's feeling and what Rob meant to him as an artist and a father figure, the man who Wil believes was the first person to actually show him unconditional love and support as a young man. So jump in as Wil recounts some stories from the making of the iconic movie and gives us insight into the process of revisiting this classic 40 years later where he, not Richard Dreyfuss, gets to lead us through it. As a special bonus, Simon & Schuster have given us a preview of Wil Wheaton's reading of The Body, which is available for purchase now wherever you get your audiobooks. Make sure to stay to the end of the interview to hear a piece of Wheaton's narration. Copyright © 1982 by Stephen King.

    Nightmares and Dreamscapes with Nat Cassidy

    Horror author Nat Cassidy (When the Wolf Comes Home) has a new book of short stories coming out called I Know A Place: Rest Stop and Other Dark Detours so it was only natural that we brought him back on the show to talk about one of King's most beloved short story collections: Nightmares and Dreamscapes. This is one of King's doorstoppers, so me, Breznican, and Nat all pick our three favorite stories and see what overlaps and what doesn't. Come of the talk of vampire urine, stay for the insightful chatter about how authors curate the pacing of short story collections. Nat's new book, I Know A Place, is available for pre-order now and hits shelves May 5th.

    Uncovering The Dark Half Secrets in the Stephen King Archive with Professor Andy Hageman

    We have something of an academic detour for you with this episode. Listen along as we're joined by Professor Andy Hageman (Director of the Center for Ethics and Public Engagement at Luther College) who recently got access to the exclusive Stephen King Archive where he got hands on with King's original typed manuscripts and discovered something fairly interesting about King's process, particularly when it comes to The Dark Half. The Prof tells us what it was like to get that close to literary history as well as what it's like teaching King at a college level and what he thinks future scholars will teach when it comes to Stephen King. If you like what you hear, make sure to check out Hageman's essay on this experience for the LA Review of Books here: https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/stephen-king-dark-half-revisited-archives-richard-bachman/

    Throttle with Natasha Kermani

    Director Natasha Kermani (Abraham's Boys, The Dreadful) is our guest this week and she picked a very interesting title to discuss: Stephen King's collaboration with his son Joe Hill titled Throttle. Kermani is no stranger to the work of Joe Hill, having adapted his story Abraham's Boys last year, and has some keen insights into both father and son's work, especially how both authors wrote about those very specific roles.   Kermani's latest film, The Dreadful, starring Game of Thrones's Sophie Turner and Kit Harington, alongside Mrs. Carmody herself, Marcia Gay Harden, releases in a theater near you February 20th.

    The Woman in the Room with Randy Havens

    Mr. Clarke himself, Randy Havens, joins The Kingcast boys to talk about the final Stranger Things season, the not-so-chill fans that showed up in its wake, working with Frank Darabont and looking back at Darabont's very first Stephen King adaption: The Woman in the Room.

    The Little Sisters of Eluria with Mallory O'Meara

    For those sensitive listeners out there, consider this fair warning: when our guest Mallory O'Meara (Girly Drinks, The Lady from the Black Lagoon) pops up on The Kingcast, things tend to get a little raunchy and this episode is no exception. She may be a James Beard award winning author, but she also hosts a podcast called Reading Smut. Mallory returns to the show to finally dive into some Dark Tower waters as the topic turns to Stephen King's novella The Little Sisters of Eluria, which takes place not too long before the first novel in the Dark Tower series, The Gunslinger. What does Pixar's Cars have to do with this story? What about a surprisingly extended conversation about what other bodily fluids can sustain a vampire? Well, you'll just have to listen to find out!

    Dark Tower IV: Wizard and Glass with Graham Skipper

    It is time to return to Mid-World in this final Kingcast episode of 2025 as indie horror star Graham Skipper (Re-Animator: The Musical, Almost Human, Beyond the Gates) joins Breznican and Vespe to discuss the fourth book in Stephen King's Dark Tower series: Wizard and Glass.  We break down the plot, underline how it weirdly mirrors the plot that George Lucas would later use for The Phantom Menace, and take a deep dive into how this book really plays to King's strength at mixing intricate character work and unbelievable world-building.
