It is time for the second annual Halloween Bleak Out! This year we focus on the work of Stephen King, perhaps the most influential and popular horror creator of modern times. From Cujo and IT to Maximum Overdrive and Misery, then the recent Revival and the underrated film version of The Mist, we cover a huge swathe of our favorite work by the man himself. His best work, his overpraised work, and his underrated.
In addition, we review imaginary friend horror Come Play, James gives his opinion on No Time to Die and YouTube channel Historia Civilis.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
