Different Seasons with Wil Wheaton
Episode 41, Jan 06, 2021, 12:00 PM
Different Seasons has given us three big adaptations of King's work: The Shawshank Redemption, Apt Pupil and, of course, Stand By Me. Vespe and Wampler are joined by the star of Stand By Me, Wil Wheaton, to break down his own King fandom, get some behind the scenes stories from the making of the best coming of age film ever and also some serious talk about being let down by the adults in your life.
This wild chat with the Internet's First Boyfriend, Wil Wheaton, ranges from the silly (how does 90 Day Fiancee figure into things?) to the somber (Wil opens up about his abusive childhood and the shocking parallels between himself and Stand By Me's Gordie Lachance). All that and more in this breakdown of the four novellas contained in Stephen King's Different Seasons.
