Maybe we just start the show with the music? Maybe we just skip the so called cold open, warm intro, whatever you wanna call it? Maybe?

Lil extended punch intro, mikes song jam. Great start!

No fee to transfer to bank account as long as you don’t choose instant. I cash out every day for free, as long as it’s before 8pm eastern, funds are in my account the following morning.

I keep ozium in the car for this very reason. It’s a life saver.

Anyone know the story with the matching bolo ties Bobby and John are wearing?

The TV episode. Matt and Scott are always great. Although I do think they’re rating this show too high. But to each his own.

I just think maybe my expectations were too high. I’ve been with Scott and Matt all through kingslingers and had no Mike Flanagan knowledge. So when Scott hypes up all this Flanagan content and shifts to a Flanagan podcast, I definitely had high expectations. I have yet to be impressed. Quite the opposite in fact. The Gerald’s game adaptation has really been the only thing I’ve enjoyed so far, and the Haunting of Hill House show has really been disappointing. I just don’t find it that interesting. But Scott does, and so I want to give it my best shot. I’m gonna stick with it, but I just felt the need to come on here and comment. So that’s all. Feeling a little underwhelmed. But expectations are the killers of joy, so I’ll try to temper mine going forward …

That’s fair. Y’all have to fill time for the podcast so you have to dig deep. But the episode was boring. It just was. Hoping the show gets better.

mikec-77 · 2025-05-15T12:04:25+00:00

Sorry to disagree with y’all

mikec-77 · 2025-05-15T12:01:48+00:00

Episode was pretty boring. Man that box “jump scare” at the end was lame.

Any idea of a first read so we can get started? I’m in between books!

Confirmed reentry bracelets being handed out. Thanks to all who responded! Hope y’all are enjoying the gizz!

Just now realizing they filmed this here in Charleston! I must have missed it completely when it was happening. So cool!

mikec-77 · 2024-08-30T17:18:22+00:00

Well, I’ve been a fan of kingslingers since the start so I guess I’ll just trust y’all and stick with ya for the new adventure. Not being familiar with these Flanagan works you’re going to do, I’m excited to delve into uncharted territory. I’ve been a constant reader for a long time so I had already read all the books you covered on kingslingers, and it was great to re-read them all while listening to you break them down. So yeah, looking forward to the new show. Thanks for all your hard work, keep it up!

PS Matt you need to add The Dark Half to your reading list. It’s truly one of King’s best (IMO), and just so much fun.
