We (mostly) kept JFK conspiracy talk out of our 11/22/63 episodes, as the story is best enjoyed on Stephen King‘s terms. We did, however, think it would be enriching to chat with some smart people about King’s assertion that “it is very, very difficult for a reasonable person to believe” that Lee Harvey Oswald wasn’t the lone shooter.
Previously, we spoke with Brendan James of Blowback about the book, Oswald, and King’s political evolution. You can find that episode just a bit further down the feed. Now, we’re speaking with Jim Dieugenio, one of the leading experts on the political assassinations of the 1960s. Jim is the author of two books about the Kennedy Assassination, one of which was the basis for Oliver Stone’s documentary JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass. He also has a new book out, The JFK Assassination Chokeholds and a website,...

The Losers continue their journey through Stephen King‘s time-traveling drama: 11/22/63. In the second of six episodes, the Losers head to Derry, Maine, where they reunite with familiar faces and meet a new villain in King’s Dominion: Frank Dunning.
Along the way, they also discuss the evolution of Jake Epping — err, George Amberson — and how this section of the book, “The Janitor’s Father”, affords Constant Readers the perfect opportunity to stakeout our main character … during a stakeout of his own.
Stream the episode below and return next week when the Losers continue their coverage with “Pt. 3: Living in the Past”. For further adventures, join the Club via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, RadioPublic, Acast, Google Podcasts, and RSS.
You can also unlock hundreds of hours of content in The Barrens (Patreon).

Look, we would’ve been perfectly happy enjoying 11/22/63 without getting into the weeds of the JFK conspiracy, but Stephen King himself took pains to detail how his research for the book convinced him that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. “It is very, very difficult for a reasonable person to believe otherwise,” he writes in the book’s afterword. Since that’s no fun, we sought out some smart people to provide a counterpoint and share their own thoughts about the book’s depictions of Oswald, Kennedy, and the assassination.
In this episode, The Losers’ Club speaks with Blowback co-host (and recent King convert) Brendan James about 11/22/63‘s Oswald, conspiracy in the 21st century, and King’s political evolution over the years — from the paranoia of The Stand to the regret of Hearts in Atlantis to the ghastly spirit of Donald Trump pervading his latest novels (and Twitter account). Finally, Brendan...

After surviving a full dark night with no stars in sight, the Losers make their way to Lisbon Falls, Maine to try out one of Al Templeton’s world renown Cat Burgers. To their surprise, though, there’s no one in the diner. Just a sulfuric smell that leads them straight to the pantry, where not only frozen meats await but an unforgettable journey into the American past — one filled with death, delights, and deep affection.
Join The Losers’ Club as they put a lens to Stephen King‘s first crack at historical fiction: 11/22/63. In the first of six episodes dedicated to the 2011 best-seller and Constant Reader favorite, they wrestle with the novel’s origins, its themes, and its commitment to history. Along the way, they also try to pinpoint what this story might have looked like when King originally dreamt it up way, way back in the early ’70s.

For the first time ever, Americans are listening to more on-demand audio (like podcasts and music services) than live, linear audio (like radio), according to data from Edison Research released this week. Larry Rosin, the company's President, says that though there will always be a place for linear radio, the trend will continue into the future. What happens when Elon Musk mentions your podcast? Last week, a day after we mentioned it in Podnews, apparent Podnews reader Elon Musk (hi Elon) tweeted about Airwave's The Explorers Podcast, in a tweet that got 18 million views. Rephonic looks at the numbers to see what happened next. Business, true crime and comedy are the top categories increasing for podcast ad spend, says MediaRadar in a new study released this week.
