| 10/7/26 | 319: An Interview with Big City Greens Creator Shane Houghton | The last thing we expected to arrive in ye ol' Kingcast mailbox was an email from Disney+ saying "hey, we think there's a Stephen King connection you might like in our super popular family-friendly cartoon series." Thankfully they did reach out, though, because we ended up with this delightful chat with Big City Greens's co-creator, Shane Houghton, who arrived to fill us in on getting King himself on as a cameo in their brand new Halloween episode.We talk about what it was like for a die hard King fan to work with his favorite author, how King has repeatedly reintroduced himself to new generations going back to the early '80s, and all the King connections in this new episode.There's also some (non-spoiler) talk about the new King, a Talisman sequel called Other Worlds Than These, and some Dark Tower discussions. Houghton was a very chill dude and had a lot of great insights.You can check out Stephen King's Big City Greens episode right now on Disney+.Also, a big thanks to our sponsor Morsels, a new horror thriller novel by Abe Moss, available now wherever books are sold! | 1h 23m 14s | ||||||
| 9/25/26 | 318: Bonus Ep: Throttle (and Giant Snakes) with Mike P. Nelson Live At Fantastic Fest 2026! | This past weekend The Kingcast held a live show at Fantastic Fest in Austin, TX. The guest was genre filmmaker Mike P. Nelson who was at the fest for his new flick, a giant killer snake tale called Beware Boiuna starring Jessica Rothe, Kiana Madeira, and Kingcast alum Logan Marshall-Green. It must also be noted that Mike was just announced as the director taking over the SAW franchise.He's a good dude and joined Vespe on stage at the raucous Highball to talk a bit about Joe Hill and Stephen King's collaboration: Throttle, a story he's actively trying to get the rights to. We also pit his huge constrictor antagonist from Beware Boiuna against some large Stephen King creations and talk through who might come out on top.It's a fun chat with a noisy crowd, the exact kind of thing you expect from a live show.If you like bonus episodes like this, make sure to sign up for our Patreon at www.patreon.com/thekingcast where you'll get first access to all bonus eps that eventually make their way to the main feed and a ton that stay exclusive to the Patreon.

| 9/23/26 | 317: My Dinner With Malachai - An Interview with Courtney Gains | Children of the Corn continues to be a Stephen King staple after all these years so it's fitting that the Kingcast boys get a chance to corner actor and musician Courtney Gains to talk about his experiences playing the red-headed, scythe-wielding, teenage rapscallion Malachai.Of course we also talk about some of his other endeavors as well, from his latest album, Liberation Day (available now), to his memorable turn as one of the mysterious Klopeks in Joe Dante's The 'Burbs. Courtney was never less than open about his career experiences, good and bad, and the result is this fun chat with an actual cornboy. Also, make sure to stick around at the end for an exclusive listen to a track from Courtney's new album! | 1h 01m 29s | ||||||

| 12/4/25 | 295: The Shawshank Redemption with Skeet Ulrich and Matthew Lillard | If you're a fan of SCREAM then you're going to want to pay attention to today's episode featuring none other than Stu Macher and Billy Loomis themselves, Matthew Lillard and Skeet Ulrich. They're appearing in the upcoming Five Nights At Freddy's 2 and they decided to stop by The Kingcast to talk about their love of King's work and specifically Frank Darabont's adaptation of The Shawshank Redemption.We also talk about their real life friendship, the stain that is toxic masculinity, working with Wes Craven on the original Scream, and even about Skeet's rather... interesting... appearance as a poster above Satan and Saddam Hussein's bed in South Park. | 55m 03s | ||||||
