Hoping I can get the title of the Stephen King short story Ben mentionned.
Hell yeah
The Answer Man short story mentioned by King is truly amazing-
Erland Van Lidth De Jeude was a classmate of my mom’s in high school in Milford, NH
My girlfriend had never seen this so of course we watched it a couple weeks ago... And she like the closing credits song so much she immediately looked for it on Spotify 😂 I don't know if I should be concerned or impressed, honestly
High and Mighty episode 97 is the other Running Man.
What you call Barn Fever or Proximity Factor, I grew up calling Homing Butt.

Nice to to have a tie-in to current cinema. Sadly Wright's remake is getting quite poor reviews and buzz which I found surprising. I've actually enjoyed most of his work since Spaced. He might want to consider reuniting with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost at some stage.
I've read a lot of positive news about the new film, especially the action sequences. Wright would push back and tell you it's not a remake, but a new adaptation. This Arnold movie has very little to do with the original Stephen King novella.

Stoked. Thank you for this. Cant wait to listen.
Hell yeah. Get the presidents agent on the phone!
Thanks for this guys- hope you’re all well!!!
