Scaling The Walls Of Castle Rock

Episode 212,   Jul 25, 2018, 12:00 AM

Hulu's latest original series, Castle Rock, is inspired by the works of Stephen King -- but is the resulting series Stephen Kingdom Hearts? Deadspin editor, Dave And Jeb Aren't Mean co-host, and spouse of a Maine native David Roth makes his dΓ©but to talk about it! Around The Dial spins to Seven Year Switch, Bosch, Last Chance U, and a vintage ad from Stephen King's past. David makes a pitch for us to induct the Law & Order: SVU episode "Wildlife" into The Canon, and then after naming the week's Winner and Loser, we continue talking names in a Game Time all about TV characters' monikers. Grab some Wonder Bread and join us!
