In this episode, I discuss the pop cultural impact that Rob Reiner had on the audience perception of Stephen King along with a review of his 1986 classic, Stand By Me. For many of us, it's remembered as a childhood classic, the ultimate coming of age tale. Does it hold up?

Please note that this podcast has been updated since its original airing to pay tribute to Rob Reiner in the wake of his passing.
