Enigmatic author Richard Bachman drew comparisons to another famous author from the jump, but it would be years before the truth about him was finally exposed. In episode 361, join Luke Elliott & James Bailey as they strap on their best shoes and take a long walk into the past as they explore the noteworthy history behind this novel, consider toxic masculinity's role in controlling young boys, unpack some surprisingly scandalous moments, and take some time to explain the novel's surprising ending. Join them next week as they compare the 2025 adaptation directed by Francis Lawrence and produced by Stephen King!
