It's that time again! Every 25 episodes or so, we venture into vast catalog that is horror master Stephen King. This time around we assemble the ka-tet with Blake Collier and Ian Olson to tackle the "Last Castle Rock Story" with NEEDFUL THINGS. When a genial elderly shop owner opens a new store in the fictional Maine town of Castle Rock, he sells people trinkets that are treasured beyond measure, for a very small price. But the price may prove to be far more destructive than anyone could have imagined.

Our conversation tackles the text of the original book, and the film adaptation from 1993 (in both its theatrical version and the extended 3-hour television cut). We explore the ways this concept is strikingly prescient 30 years later and what it costs us to continue to pursue what we lack at a cost that is not counted.
