In celebration of finally getting to 50 episodes of the podcast, I'm in the guest chair this week to watch a classic film that I've never seen for the first time. Yes, I finally watched The Shining.
Joining me on this journey are Shining and Kubrick fans Kevin Maher, Matt Glasson and Amber Dextrous. We discuss the differences between Stephen King's book and the film, the many theories the film has inspired, why I am finally watching the film in my late thirties and much more.
Catch Kevin Maher's video variety show Kevin Geeks Out at Brooklyn's Nitehawk Cinema and the Alamo Drafthouse Brooklyn. This month's theme is wizards!

Here's the McSweeney's piece Kevin mentions, notes from Jack's literary agent. And here's The Pink Smoke piece on Burnt Offerings.
And of course, The Shining as a rom com.
