You know what, George? I agree with you! Change careers! Chasing a good story is *not* worth getting stranded on a barren island, startled by ghosts, having your window tapped upon by vampires, and being locked in ghost town jail cell! Maybe you should podcast restaurants or some shit! (PS: Congrats on your milestone subscriber count!)
Confused me for a second, I didn't realise this was a part two. I thought it was a re-upload. Also, that ending, I want to say I called it when I saw TAK in the text last episode. I love the "Assuming he survives" in the coda this episode. Honestly maybe it's because I was in a different part of that same desert when the book first came out, but Desperation is my favorite work that King wrote in that era. Felt like putting on a familiar shoe only to find too late there was a scorpion hiding within.
Had to watch the movie again after seeing this. Hands down one of the most chilling character introductions with the sheriff of Desperation played by Hellboy himself. Tak.
“Will George Hatfield escape his prison of desperation? Will he at least get out of his cell? Will he start rethinking his life choices? Will he ever make to room 1408 or Rose manor? Tune in next time,same Strange time,same Strange Resort.”
Hey! I haven't got to this particular video yet. I've been watching your previous videos and i plan to get to this one. I just want to encourage you. I love your content, narration and choice of illustrations. This is like a audiobook crossed with visuals crossed with a podcast. The only comparable channel I've found covers comic books. This is truly quality content and keep up the good work!
I found this paperback book on a train - someone either forgot it or were done with reading it (or they didn't like it). I read up to the part where there was something evil called "tak" in a mine then I had to get off. I left the book behind. To be honest I don't remember much of the story but I'm not really a big Stephen King fan.
Absolutely love these videos! Always so excited when I get a notification for a new one ☺️ Such creative and top quality production. Congrats on all the new subscribers, they are well deserved 🎉
My favorite Steven King book. This takes me back to the late 90s, when I listened to this on cassette tapes over and over. Steven King was the narrator.
I have to admit when I began reading The Regulators I didn’t think I’d get into it as Westerns aren’t really my thing. I hadn’t read Desperation but had seen the adaptation. I was blown away by how much I loved it. Part of the thrill of going to the op shop/thrift store is finding old Stephen King books I don’t already own even though I’m trying desperately to stick to kindle because I have too many books and not enough space. It’s rare to find books I don’t already own, but it’s a thrill when I do. The Regulators was the most recent, I found it last year. I wish I enjoyed audiobooks more, but unless I’ve already read the book I’m listening to they often frustrate me with the slower pacing and with not being able to re-read sentences and dwell on the language at my own pace. I’m a fast reader but I do love scouring the text as I go at my leisure.
COLLIE Entragian. Yet another choice reminder of Stephen King's problem with poor ole Lassie dogs...I know I mentioned this here before, but here's a refresher of King's collies... 1.Blaze, Bowie's Collies: A disreputable breeder whose dogs are "cowardly and vicious", except for their pack leader, Randy, who is just plain vicious. Every day, Randy bluff charges Blaze while the young man cleans the dog runs, until one day he attacks for real.. 2. Apt Pupil, unknown neighbour's collie pup. This puppy topples a ladder, causing an old man to break his back. The man winds up in a hospital bed next to fugitive Nazi war criminal Kurt Dussander, at whose camp, Patin, he was a prisoner. 3. Gerald's Game, the former Prince. A starving collie mix, probably abandoned by his asshole owners at the end of the summer. He makes a meal of the trapped woman's deceased husband. 4. Somebody remind me which King story or novel has the protagonist thinking with exasperation at the whole notion of Lassie. What kind of parents would leave their child's care up to a collie? He sounds (well, "thinks") all kinds of genuinely aggravated lol. There might be one or two more Ive overlooked, but to SK this quadruple collie owner must ask, why the hate?
@brittanybaiibee what kind of collie, and more importantly, did s/he die? Some of King's most harrowing deaths happened to dogs...the worst being the cocker spaniel puppy Patrick Hockstedder locked in his Amana for days until it died. That bothered me so much more than when he smothered his baby brother in his crib.
Luckily I think it's a win for the collies on this one (not sure on exact breed), no sudden deaths or misfortunes from what I can remember, just remember a dog named Lassie and it being a collie in the book owned by a non-cross over character, mostly unimportant to the story and SK's works. @@daniellewillis2767
No, I wish I had a mic of that quality. You're gonna laugh (or cry) at how amateur my set up is: a Blue Snowball Mic with a Pop Filer, on a Microsoft Surface Pro.
@@stephenkingbookclub1054 no, I actually have a Blue Yeti I believe it's called. I really don't know why I bought it other than it was USB and it was another mic in case BOTH of mine died, I suppose. I have these CAD M179 mics that are condenser and $175 and they sound very clear and have low noise so you actually capture a pretty accurate image so if you want that kind of dark or warm sound, you can still do it but you just have to watch the high end and not let those S sounds or CH especially get too harsh. I think most of the stuff I have done is on the bright side. Always look on the bright side of recording. du du. dududududud. oh. But I haven't used that Yeti mic. Been collecting dust ever since I plunked $75 into it. :( It sounded okay. Not as bright and it has noticeable extra noise than the CAD M179 so I just don't use it but it's nice to have a spare even tho I have a spare M179. Way I see it, if my mic captures accurately, I don't need 15 different mics. Just alter the sound in post if I want a different sound. You can always dumb it down later but you can't get back clarity if it's muddled on the front end.
I know the name of your Chanel, and I like it, but have you ever thought of expanding with this particular series? I’m just saying fiction has no shortage of spooky places and this series can be great at exploring them.
The next episode after Desperation it's about "The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon" -- th-cam.com/video/9lpyfNTkGp4/w-d-xo.html (However, George merely says he won't bore us with the daring details of his escape.) we have a lot of questions for him, and hopefully he'll tell us how he got of of the jail... as well as how he got off that deserted island from "Survivor Type"!
@@stephenkingbookclub1054 Darn I was very confused, I literally just found this channel yesterday and as a Nevada native I really wanted to hear that finish out. Dang it George, being all coy with the deets.

I love that you used the "film" from the actual movie. It was very nice touch! TAK.
The thing I love the most is that nearly every terrifying villain in King's books would be seriously concerned if a proper Gunslinger showed up.

Don't listen to this guy America has tons of stories to tell just got to find them try Maine something tells me it'll float your boat

Good luck, George! Hope to hear from you again someday!
This is really an entertaining form of storytelling! Adding the visuals while hearing the story is very enjoyable. Keep it coming!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!
I cant wait to see what this channel is building towards! All things serve the beam!

Okay, this is the first "podcast" that made me laugh out loud multiple times!

“Will George Hatfield escape his prison of desperation?
Will he at least get out of his cell?
Will he start rethinking his life choices?
Will he ever make to room 1408 or Rose manor?
Tune in next time,same Strange time,same Strange Resort.”
I love this!
If George survives, I think a good story to visit would be Cycle of The Werewolf

Missed the live but excited for a new video! 🤗🥰 Long days and pleasant nights, my friends.

Omgoodness LuVd it!! LuVd EVERYTHING about it 💜💜💜
“One of the humans…”
That was the point my fight or flight response got triggered. I was like, “GEORGE, RUN!”
I was always partial to "Get the hell out of Dodge." 😀
Good lord the story of desperation and regulators is so messed up. King really knows how to write up horror.

Each and every episode is better than the last! I can’t get enough!
I’ve seen people trash this book a lot but it’s always been one of my favorites.

lol. I never connected those dots. I thought there was another in Laurie. But that was a border collie mix. And she was a good girl.
@@AceMoonshot Yeah, I think he resented Lassie for preventing Timmy from earning a much deserved Darwin Award...
Bag of Bones had lassie, a collie

Ah. There you are❤
Fun fact: The Regulators by Richard Bachman (King) came out before Desperation. Great two part read.
TAK TAK,YALL!
I continue to love every video of yours i find! Im not familiar with what book or story this is based on?
It's inspired by the events in the novel: Desperation
@stephenkingbookclub1054 thank you! Keep up the great work
Don't pick up any little animal figurines laying on the ground!?😭😭😭
"no matter how much you jump and dance"
Destination 'Desperation" Tak
Hey George maybe a nice Sandels Resort would be safer
LOL!
George Lives damnit!!!!!
You can't keep a good George down!
That guide is a walking red flag 🚩🚩🚩🚩
“Oh no, Jamie! My only contact at the Bureau of Land Management!”
So, the regulators?
Please!
❤
Aah hah ha ha er.. haaa! Yes, feels good to laugh. TAK!
“One of the humans” hmmmm
Was that "tak" in last week's text message just an ominous typo?
I think RF killed the Bureau guy and used his phone to text George 😮
Nope. In the book, it's an EVIL word used as a verbal tik by the people turned homicidal in that town.
where’s part 3??
I know the name of your Chanel, and I like it, but have you ever thought of expanding with this particular series? I’m just saying fiction has no shortage of spooky places and this series can be great at exploring them.
We might someday send ol' George to places that are King adjacent (perhaps some Lovecraftian town?)
@@stephenkingbookclub1054 I might recommend maybe places from junji Ito if you’re interested
@@stephenkingbookclub1054oh I know a town in Japan that would be perfect
Where is the third part? I am very very confused because George gets to Derry!

what a cool way to cover Desperation. do you plan on another part to this? it could be fun to see our boy trace the steps of the survivors while escaping himself, if he does escape...
Exposed to "TAK"cik gas😂
Love the stories but are they really true I’m need a answer back George thanks
No. George Hatfield is wandering through the fictional world of Stephen King. :)
