Cell with Rob Sheridan

Episode 189,   Jul 26, 2023, 08:00 AM

Artist Rob Sheridan, known for his work with Nine Inch Nails and his crazy clothing line over at Glitch Goods, joins Wampler and Vespe to chat about one of the worst King adaptations ever put to celluloid. We don't hold back on our feelings on Cell, both the book and the unfortunate movie, as well as dive into a rather complex discussion about technology, especially its impact on art. Come for the clowning on a terrible movie, stay for the nuanced conversation about AI.

What if your cell phone turned you into a zombie? Okay, that's probably already the case, but I mean a real honest to God zombie? That's the premise of Stephen King's 2006 novel and its questionable, shoddy, and rather unpleasant 2016 adaptation starring the usually dependable John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson.
