About this listen

Our true first episode of 2026, we are going into the world of Stephen King... Kinda. This 1980 adaptation of classic novel definitely changes the story of the work it is based on. Stanley Kubrick's horror masterpiece tells the story of Jack Torrance (played by Jack Nicholson) who takes a new job as the caretaker for The Overlook, a beautiful hotel in the Colorado mountains where he, his wife Wendy, and son Danny will be left alone in for the winter.
