In 1978, the man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed. In 2004, the gunslinger’s journey came to an end. Sort of.
The Losers’ Club concludes its sprint through the final volumes of Stephen King’s The Dark Tower saga with an episode about, what else, 2004’s final chapter The Dark Tower VII: The Dark Tower. Across more than 1,000 pages, Roland and his ka-tet traverse the multiverse, bouncing between numerous wheres and whens on their quest to save a world in swift decline. A number of new (and quite hungry) antagonists, some of whom might be familiar to Constant Readers, emerge in these pages, giving the Losers plenty to unpack in this epic two-part episode.
Join Losers Randall Colburn, Ana Marie Cox, Dan Pfleegor, and Dan Caffrey as they discuss endings, second chances, and the weight of expectation. Is The Dark Tower series King’s crowning achievement, as so many posited at the time of its release? Also, what has King said about it — and why does he sound so angry saying it?
Stream the episode below and return next week when the Losers conclude their two-part book episode on The Dark Tower. For further adventures, join the Losers’ Club over long days and pleasant nights via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, RadioPublic, Acast, Google Podcasts, and RSS.
