In this week's episode of The Stephen Kingcast, I examine Stephen King's first collection of short stories: Night Shift. Rather than analyzing each one, I analyze the remaining short stories that I didn't touch upon last week.  Please note that this episode originally aired on July 10, 2017, which was three years after last episode, so some of the things discussed in last episode never came to fruition the way that we had hoped, and as you'll see from this episode, things discussed here never came to pass, either. But unbeknownst to all of us, in just a little bit over a month, the manhole covers on the streets of Stephen King IP were about to explode out of the ground and shoot farther than we could have possibly imagined. . .It: Chapter One was right around the corner. . . During the time of this original recording, I examined the stories I hadn't covered three years prior, answered listener e-mail, discussed some potential Stephen King movie news (www.onefortheroad2018.com) and peddled some dope t-shirts (

In this week's episode of The Stephen Kingcast, I examine Stephen King's first collection of short stories: Night Shift. Rather than analyzing each one, I analyze a handful of the stories that stood out to me, including a deep dive into the forward to the collection from the author.  Next episode will cover the second half of the short stories, and following that, I will explore the adaptations from the collection.  Please note that the original podcast aired on September 21, 2014. I provide a new introduction explaining the structure of the next stretch of episodes, how this episode relates to the next one and discuss what happened/didn't happen with some of the concepts that are discussed in this episode.

When Stephen King goes blow for blow with Stanley Kubrick, who comes out the winner? That's right, Constant Listeners. In this week's edition of the Stephen Kingcast, I review 1980's horror classic, The Shining.    As always, write in at stephenkingcast@yahoo.com   Follow me on Instagram, Tik Tok, Facebook and Bluesky.

In this week, we look at the conclusion of The Shining to determine whether or not Stephen King deserves his reputation for having an inability to successfully land his endings. So let's focus on the conclusion and figure this out together!
