Real horrorshow episode for you this week, malchicks and devotchkas! The best-known version of A Clockwork Orange might be Stanley Kubrick's 1975 film, which is based on a version of the story that is missing its last chapter. Burgess wants us all to know that he'd disown this story if he could, but if we're going to read it, we might as well get the ending as originally intended.

This episode is sponsored by the PBS American Masters: Creative Spark, find it on your favorite listening app.

Our theme music was composed by Nick Lerangis.
