The Losers return to Maine and take a ferry out to Moose-Lookit Island, where they learn about the mystery of The Colorado Kid. It’s a slim tale with even slimmer answers, but they quickly learn there’s a lot of meat to chew on. Hell, you might even choke on it! Keep all that in mind as you listen to the Club’s first book episode of 2023 and Season 7.
Done flipping? Then join Losers Michael Roffman, Rachel Reeves, Ashley Casseday, and Jenn Adams as they discuss the origins of the Hard Case Crime imprint, how Stephen King got involved, the ways this peculiar parable is built on hard-boiled tropes, the timeless trials for “from-away”s, and how it all aligns with From a Buick 8 and beyond.
Stream the episode below and be sure to bring a windbreaker. Then return next week when the Losers speak to Last Days author Brian Evenson as part of their On Writers series. For further adventures, join the Losers’ Club over long days and pleasant nights via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, RadioPublic, Acast, Google Podcasts, and RSS.
You can also unlock hundreds upon hundreds of hours of exclusive content in The Barrens (Patreon) — from deep dives into uncollected King works to Dark Tower detours to feature-length King commentaries to exclusive interviews to spinoff podcasts centered around Stranger Things, Michael Crichton, and spooky real-life stuff.
