Founded in 2017, The Losers’ Club® is an award-winning weekly series that chronologically digs through the work of Stephen King with humor, irreverence, and a critical eye. Each episode, the Losers gather together to read between the iconic pages and share the latest in King’s Dominion, whether it’s the author’s oft-controversial tweets, the boldest Hollywood headlines, or his endless forthcoming projects. The series also regularly features special guests. In the past, the Losers have spoken to Mike Flanagan, Thomas Jane, Tananarive Due, Chapo Trap House, Owen Teague, Mick Garris, Mary Lambert, Jerry O’Connell, Wil Wheaton, Joe Bob Briggs, and even King himself.
Suitable for readers both Constant and casual. King says check us out.
Edited by Kyle Orozovich. Music by The Most/Charlie Laurence. Produced by Michael Roffman and Randall Colburn.

Full Dark, No Stars: 1922
With summer behind us, it's time to embrace the Fall season ahead of us. Be sure to keep an eye on your watch as the sun hits that horizon much, much earlier this time of the year. Before you know it? Full Dark, No Stars. Alas, the Losers have reached the next novellas collection in their journey through Stephen King's catalogue. The first of the four finds them dialing the clock back to 1922 and returning to Hemingford Home, Nebraska where there's been a grisly murder. That's an understatement. Stay tuned next week for Big Driver.

Ranking Stephen King's Critters
In honor of the 40th anniversary of Lewis Teague’s Cujo, the Losers count down and match up to identify -- and crown -- the best critter in all of King’s Dominion! Instead of listing and ranking, we’re gonna let the critters themselves take control and duke it out with each other until only one remains. But never fear. No animals will be hurt in the recording of this episode. We’re using a March-Madness style Bracket to narrow down the competitors to a grand champion.

Under the Dome TV Review
The Losers make one more stop through Chester's Mill. This time they're talking about CBS' Under the Dome, the television adaptation of Stephen King's 2009 novel that lasted three seasons and spanned 39 episodes. Together, they discuss the production history, the cast, whether Dean Norris outpaces everyone, the translation from page to screen, the elasticity of the premise, and all the wild, wild arcs that await viewers in Season 3. It's a roarin' fun time. Loud and alive.

Customer Reviews
Great job!
Love the show and thanks for doing it. A small note. The character from the last of us you mentioned in the latest episode is very much also the same type of evil in the video game. I’ve heard a couple people misremember in the same way so just found it interesting.
Don’t get political
I am halfway through the first episode on Carrie and really enjoying the insight and then what I was hoping didn’t happen did. One of the losers (appropriately named) made a comment about President Trump. My advice would be to stick to the theme of the podcast which is to discuss King novels and the movies that come from them and that’s it. Political opinions go on a political podcast. It’s too bad they can’t help themselves to throw in their political opinions because I really wanted to give this a try. 👎🏻
Don’t mess with my Disco
Pretty awesome people doing a pretty dope Stevie King podcast. They drop a lot of spoilers for other books sometimes and eat on the mic but people are people. As far as people go, these ones are too legit to quit. And those Gerbers are worth their weight in gold. 5 noser
