  Speaker 1: Well, am I going to get to listen to this
• 0:01
  Speaker 1: episode or do I need to join the Patreon?
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: I think you... I just remembered.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: I still have a Patreon account that's been collecting dust.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Oh, but we should tell them about that. The fact
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: that this week is a Patreon episode and if you,
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: the rest of you people, were cool, you would be
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: supporting the show and be kicking in like, I don't know,
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: two bucks and then you can go and listen to
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: An awesome episode where we say amazing things like this.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: To sort of ease in to the Stephen King world.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: I believe somebody here has been reading thousands of pages
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: of Stephen King recently. Back in the olden days, before
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: there was Audible, them books on tape. I do remember
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: finding several of those that I liked. One of which, again,
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: wasn't a movie at the time. They did this really great, like,
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: I think they referred to it as like 4D sound
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: that was like not just reading, but an entire presentation
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: of the mist. Oh, cool.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: I just love that he has corgis.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: He's like writing all this spooky stuff and he's got
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: these cute little fluffy dogs. I just like that he's
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: a Ramones fan.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: Well, that's what I was going to say. The Corgis
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: almost balances out the fact that he has his own
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: rock band. Well, that too. Because what I've heard, it
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: sounds like the standard old guy rock band. So what
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: are you going to do?
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: He's so cute. He's just a dad. Oh, yeah. America's
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: creepy dad.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Just a dorky old creepy dad. That's what I wondered.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: If they just brought a mowing crew out, would it
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: just keep growing after they... Because, I mean, we do
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: see it move and fix itself. When he's trying to
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: mark his way through, it starts untying itself.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Ooh, I did like that at one point, Becky stabbed
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: homeboy in the eyeball, and then later she stabbed him again,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: and I was like, was that in the other eyeball?
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: At the time, I remember thinking... Did she mean to
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: dress as The Rock or did she just realize she
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: was wearing the same? Yeah, I kind of, when I
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: first saw it, I was like, did you just show
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: up for work? And went, wait, am I The Rock?
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: First of all, I was super excited because I'm like,
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: Victoria Justice. Because obviously, yes, I know who Victoria Justice is.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: That sounds amazing. Stupid. Yeah, I don't think there was.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: It doesn't have anything relevant to the grass or anything.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: I thought maybe it did, but. She lacks reading. I
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: don't know. Maybe there's subtext in Jane Eyre I never
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: picked up on. There's like some crazy lady in the
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: grass who was married to the alien guy and then
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: he put.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Her in a closet.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: This whole book is about staying out of fields. I
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: never knew that.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: Jane Eyre eats her own baby.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: What the hell? I missed this chapter. There ain't no
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: tall grass in the English moors. Only shrubberies. Just werewolves.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Right, that's a different one.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: If I'm in the middle of nowhere on a road trip,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: hear a child screaming in a field for help, Another
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: random child with the same voice comes out of a
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: church all dirty and weird and yells at me not
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: to go in that field.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: I'm not putting him in my car.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: I'm knocking him down and driving off, but he's not
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: getting in that car with me. It's about an industrial
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: laundry ironing folding machine that gets possessed and sucks in
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: people and they come out folded like a shirt. What
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: was the deal with the bowling alley?
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, at some point, was that like a note
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: from somebody up there? Producers were just like, enough with
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: this field, man. Like, can we go in a building
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: or something? Your dreams almost came true.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: But who is that for? Because who saw that movie?
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Why is it worth this much trouble for something that
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: nobody saw? Patrick Wilson is being creepy right now. That's
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: what he always does.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: And once Freddy escaped, I'm like, I don't feel like
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: I need to watch the rest of this movie. This
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: is my happy ending.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: My hero is happy now. So I turned it off.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Anything after that, I have no idea what you guys
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: are talking about. I can do two bucks. It's not
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: so bad. It's half of what I paid.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: For this cup of coffee. This cup of coffee. Gladly.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: From Honey Brothers, which all of you should go and support.
• 4:36
