Bloody FM

Founded in 2017, The Losers’ Club® is an award-winning weekly series that chronologically digs through the work of Stephen King with humor, irreverence, and a critical eye. Each episode, the Losers gather together to read between the iconic pages and share the latest in King’s Dominion, whether it’s the author’s oft-controversial tweets, the boldest Hollywood headlines, or his endless forthcoming projects. The series also regularly features special guests. In the past, the Losers have spoken to Mike Flanagan, Thomas Jane, Tananarive Due, Chapo Trap House, Owen Teague, Mick Garris, Mary Lambert, Jerry O’Connell, Wil Wheaton, Joe Bob Briggs, and even King himself.

Suitable for readers both Constant and casual. King says check us out.

Edited by Kyle Orozovich. Music by The Most/Charlie Laurence. Produced by Michael Roffman and Randall Colburn.

The Stacks: What We're Reading in March 2026 and the Latest in Horror Fiction

In June 2023, The Losers' Club began discussing Stephen King's EW column The Pop of King on their Patreon. What was initially going to be one full-length episode has since become a subsection of The Stephen King Archives that sees the gang dedicating one episode to one full year's worth of columns from King. What started with 2003/2004 -- an episode we unlocked for you last year (look it up) -- has since grown to four more installments, the latest being on 2008. 

Today, we're dusting off the second of five episodes in the series as a way to shed light on this project. So, in this episode, which was recorded way, way back in 2024, Randall Colburn, Rachel Reeves, Dan Pfleegor, and Justin Gerber dial things back to 2005 and zero in on King's comically acerbic reviews, recommendations, and takedowns to discuss how that era of culture resonates now.

Topics include King's prophetic belief that stars don't sell movies, stories do, his bizarre hatred of DVD extras, his warning to the creators of Lost to not fuck up the ending (lol), his complicated thoughts about the work of Bret Easton Ellis, his annoyance with fancypants critics and their disdain of popular fiction, and his favorite (and our favorite) movies, books, and music of 2005.

Stephen King's The Pop of King EW Column: 2005

In January 2026, nearly a decade after hitting record on their first book episode, The Losers' Club completed their Herculean task of covering Stephen King's bibliography. From 1974's Carrie to 2025's Never Flinch, the Losers covered each and every title in King's Dominion with long, expansive book episodes. Now, they're doing what anybody does when they complete a gargantuan catalogue in pop culture: rank them.

Behold, The Definitive Stephen King Book Ranking!

In the following months, the Club will countdown King's published novels -- specifically, novels (no collections) -- from worst to best. Today, they begin this journey with their picks for 66 to 59. In other words, their least favorite books in his decades-spanning bookshelf. So, come in with an open mind and don't get too disappointed if something you love is something they hate. That's the fun of a ranking, right? Yep, right. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com

The Definitive Stephen King Book Ranking: #66-59

Richard Matheson’s I Am Legend is often called the first modern vampire novel. Preceding Salem’s Lot by 21 years, the story follows a would-be scientist named Robert Neville who also happens to be the last man on Earth. Tormented by the memory of his wife’s horrific transformation, not to mention the hordes of vampires trying to break through his heavily fortified home, Neville spends his days systematically euthanizing the undead and searching in vain for a sustainable cure. But a surprising discovery throws his efforts into question while destabilizing his lonely life. 

In the latest episode of Bloody FM’s The Losers’ Club podcast, co-hosts Jenn Adams, Mac Gerber, Ashley Casseday, and Dan Caffrey revisit this seminal text as they explore the titles mentioned in Stephen King’s Danse Macabre. Is Neville a likable protagonist? Do we understand Matheson’s musings on germs? Why do adaptations always skew towards zombies and why does that ending pack such a punch? They’ll answer these questions and more while discussing Matheson’s larger body of work and incomparable contributions to the horror genre. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Danse Macabre: I Am Legend (1954)

The Losers untie another big ol' Bag of Bones and answer your questions. Questions like: ""What's Stephen King's strongest six-book stretch?"; "What's Stephen King's most overrated character and most underrated?"; "Which Stephen King movie adaptation would have been MOST improved by a different actor or director?"; "In "N.," what do you think the n stands for?"; and more. They're also asked about the Club's origins, the bird annoying the hell out of Mike, and which King ka-tet would make for the most nightmarish blunt rotation. Good stuff, great fun, Losers' Club.
