Welcome friends. It’s almost midnight, and you’ve found your way to The PikeCast. Come along as we careen through the catalog of the most formative horror writer of our young adult days, Christopher Pike. From adult perspectives, we’ll revisit these YA books our parents probably would never have let us read had they known what lie inside. We tackle one book per episode, in a freewheeling and unbiased chat. So grab your battered paperback, pull the flashlight from the kitchen drawer, climb under your bed covers and devour a good book with us.

Die Softly by Christopher Pike - The PikeCast

Die Softly by Christopher Pike - The PikeCast

Join us on The PikeCast as Cassie, Becca, and Cooper spend some time with cheerleaders and cocaine! Released in 1991 (shortly after a show about small town highschoolers, murder, and cocaine, Twin Peaks premiered) this book paints a very unusual picture of high school life, full of perverts, wanton kinky sex, non-monogamy, casual drugs and drinking, and guns just hanging around. Yunno, like real high school. Come now, let's talk Die Softly by Christopher Pike!

A brilliant new podcast, my new favorite!

The Pikecast may be young, but I’ve been having a wonderful time reading along with the show. My friends don’t read in the same genre as me, or at all, so it’s been wonderful flying through these pulpy relics and tuning in to hear the hosts talk about them (there are a lot of moments where I say “yes! I had the same thought!” out loud to my phone). The hosts are wonderful and you can tell they have good chemistry.

It’s early days, but if you all are in it for the long haul, I would definitely recommend doing what you can to provide the best and most even sound quality among all hosts. I hope the show gets the support it deserves to aid the production!
