The Long Walk (2025): Dead Men Walking


Listen Later

Will and Tucker tackle Stephen King’s The Long Walk and its leap to the big screen. But first—Tucker shares a story about rescuing a cat from a car engine, and the guys catch up on recent watches like Friendship and Nobody 2.


Then it’s all about The Long Walk: from its dystopian premise to the challenges of adaptation, and the performances that carried it—especially Cooper Hoffman and David Johnson. Tucker praises the film’s stripped-down approach and raw performances, while Will pushes back on the script and visual style. Together, they debate the ending, the film’s themes, and where it sits among King adaptations.


Plus: final reflections, what’s next for the pod, and a teaser for upcoming episodes.
