    011 - My Top Stephen King Short Story - Novella Adaptations as of 2025
    2025/09/21
    Welcome to Short Bites: A Stephen King Podcast! In this special solo bonus episode, I’m sharing my favourite adaptations of Stephen King’s short stories and novellas. While Short Bites usually features conversations with fellow fans about King’s work, this time I’m flying solo to keep the episodes coming regularly.

    From The Mist to Maximum Overdrive, I count down my top picks (with a number one that might surprise you). Not every fan favourite makes the list — sometimes because I haven’t read them yet, and sometimes because they just didn’t grab me.

    Chris and I discuss a lot in this one. Battleground may be the focus, but it's only ten pages long. So we discussed additional Stephen King-related topics, including Holly, adaptations, Chris's favourites and not-so-favourites, and other subjects.

    007 - The Boogeyman with Jen from Literary Love
    2025/07/13
    In this episode of Short Bites, Jason is joined by Jen from the YouTube channel Literary Love 123 to discuss Stephen King’s chilling short story The Boogeyman. Together, they explore what makes this early work so disturbing, how it captures primal fears, and whether the 2023 film adaptation holds up to the original.

    This lively discussion dives into King’s themes of grief, denial, toxic masculinity, and the monstrous things that hide in plain sight. Jason and Jen also share personal reactions, favourite lines, and how The Boogeyman compares to other horror stories about parenthood and trauma.

    In this episode:
    • Literary vs. cinematic horror
    • Unpacking unreliable narration
    • King’s early voice and lasting impact
    • Jen’s favourite King works
