  • The Long Walk: Book Club Edition
    Aug 17 2025
    With the film adaptation of The Long Walk on the horizon, Derry Public Radio presents a special “Book Club Edition” of our coverage—distilling our original three-part discussion into one streamlined episode. We’ve cut the tangents, kept the core conversation, and preserved the heart of our take on Richard Bachman’s haunting classic. Recorded in early 2019, these discussions capture DPR in its early days, offering both a time capsule of where we started and a fresh way to revisit the story. Whether you’re preparing for your first step onto the Walk, or retracing the road once more, join us as we explore the rules, the road, and the relentless cost of the Prize.
