The Stephen King Podcast Needs You!

Posted: February 28, 2017, 20:41
_

As most of you know nothing in this world is free. Not even running a podcast. It costs money to host and run a podcast and because of that we would like to ask those of you out there that enjoy listening to us talk for about 90 minutes a couple of times a month to help out.

The last months we have had over 5,000 downloads of each episode and if even a fifth of all of those who downloaded the episodes donate $1 each we would have money to cover the costs for quite some time. And I mean what do you really get for $1? Why not spend it on something you enjoy?

But please note that if no one donate we'll still keep doing the pod. We will still keep talking for about 90 minutes a couple of times a month. However, if you DO donate we will mention you in our podcast as a supporter of the show. Unless you want to be anonymous, then that’s OK as well.

Thank you in advance for your support and if you want to help out, just click on the link and enter an amount.

We talk about the book, the movie, and the TV sequel.

Welcome to the Stephen King Podcast Constant and New Listeners!

Join your hosts - longtime Constant Readers - Hans Lilja of Lilja's Library and writer/podcaster - Lou W. Sytsma.

Welcome to Episode 62 of The Stephen King Podcast!

This is a special edition of the Stephen King Podcast. Our version of the recent Entertainment Weekly Dark Tower Movie Comic Con special edition.

Using the EW Dark Tower articles we are going to take a Dark Tower Movie deep dive and speculate on the possible forms the movie could take.

This is a spoiler heavy podcast for the movie and all the speculation contained in the podcast is ours and is no way to be taken as gospel.

The EW articles can be found here:

The Idris Elba Accent Interview can be found here:
Idris Elba reveals the accent Roland the Gunslinger will have in The Dark Tower
