Love this podcast, I’m a constant reader of Stephen King but on my first trip through mid-world. I heard about this podcast through another King podcast and the fact that Matt is on his first read-through meant it was perfect for me as there would be no spoilers. The lads are intelligent and...Read full review »

I kept reading about this podcast on Reddit, but was skeptical at first. Do I really need to read along with other people? And the first time I heard about it, I’d just finished a re-read. Why start again? I was so wrong. Going through again with Scott and Matt made this umpteenth journey to the...Read full review »

Kingslingers stands as a testament to the power of great storytelling and partnership. Matt and Scott’s dynamic is a perfect match for the epic scope of the Dark Tower series and beyond. Their insightful and engaging discussions not only illuminate the path for Constant Readers but also warmly...Read full review »

First I want to say thank you for such a great podcast. I have read the series many times and have been a fan of Stephen King since 1985 when I found It at the library in middle school. I must say you guys really do justice to the Dark Tower series and I look forward to walking with you both to...Read full review »

Great re-visit with these guys through a story I love with lots of additional perspective I didn’t and wouldn’t have seen by myself.

Matt and Scott are an awesome duo. I just discovered Kingslingers in early 2023 and am currently finishing up my trip to the Tower with them. I have journeyed to the Tower many times on my own but Matt and Scott still make my go “huh” with their take and opinions and views on what it is...Read full review »

I read the dark tower series over 20 years ago and most of other Steven King‘s works as well. I’ve stepped away for a long time and I don’t know why but this show is recommended and I remembered oh I love the dark tower. I listen to the first episode and it was awesomeit brought me right back to...Read full review »

This has become my favorite podcast. Idk if I’ll ever catch up as I found this a few years late but I’m really enjoying the ride so far through the entire dark tower series and now halfway through Salems lot I had to write my review. I wasn’t always a big reader but I think that’s changed now and...Read full review »

I’ve been listening since ‘The Waste Lands’ in season 1 and really enjoy the discussion on Dark Tower, the related DT books and the best of King. I save these podcasts for my weekend long run - ‘The Long Walk’ was fun to listen to while training for a race - and the show’s intro theme has become...Read full review »

I struggled with the Gunslinger and someone on Facebook recommended this podcast. It’s awesome. I can’t recommend it enough.

Scott and Matt do an amazing job reviewing each chapter of the Dark Tower series. I just found this podcast and am hooked.
Sweetscience74 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/30/24
Just starting to re-read this series. It’s like being in a book club. Love it.

I was in the depths of The Song of Susannah when I began casually listening to this podcast while driving or taking care of house work. It’s been lovely to refresh my memory of the early story while nearing the end of my journey. I love the format of Kingslingers, the high level Nerd-dom and...Read full review »

Any chance we will get a LOTR analysis podcast?
punknerd138 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/30/23
This is a perfect companion to my third journey though the Dark Tower series. I’m only at the start of the Drawing of the Three and this podcast has already deepened my existing deep appreciation of this amazing world that King created.
Monstaa620 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/26/23
Is it too late to change the name to “Big Coffin Boys”? Edit for 2023 My rating has bumped because Matt has the same opinion as me that It Chapter 2 while flawed is still fun
GloomPatrol via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/17/23
Every few years I feel the song starting again and dive back into King's opus, The Dark Tower. I always love revisiting the series but inevitably there are some parts I just know, through and through. However, this time when the song started I decided to travel the path in a different way and...Read full review »

Let the record show, these two pedos just gave an impassioned endorsement for the necessity of a child-sex gang-bang as an aspect of the novel It, arguing the act served as a reflection of empowering sex positivity……albeit for an underage girl….having sex with multiple boys simultaneously.

Do you love? This podcast is the best companion to a constant reader and anyone who ventures into the works that Sai King has gifted us. The premise of one who has read all of King’s works guiding a friend through the many twists, turns, and reveals each has to offer is one of the most enjoyable...Read full review »

Great, insightful conversations about the King universe. Although Sometimes they remind me of the Schweddy Balls NPR hosts from SNL. (Good luck un-hearing that). Smart dudes with interesting takes.
Mr.Jeffles via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/09/23
Really enjoying this podcast, thank you for the topics and chats, you have sent me down numerous rabbit holes over the years. I’ve always wanted to discuss and analyse King’s books (especially the Tower) but never had any nerds to do it with! Loving every minute of the episodes, thank you so much...Read full review »

I’m a massive DT fan- read the books 3 times. Thanks for an awesome podcast I’m only a few episodes in and I’m really enjoying it. Thank you!

For breaking down TDT series and helping all of us understand and appreciate the journey with Roland even more.
Mustachestaff via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/28/23
Out of the many podcasts/videos/books/whatever that really explores King’s work, this is the best.
yourStepDadRon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/27/23
What a fantastic podcast. Needed something to listen to all day at work and this fit the bill for a good long time until I caught up at the tail end of season 2. Only bad part is now waiting a week for each new show. See everyone in Bangor! Long days and pleasant nights!

I have been a Constant Reader of Stephen King since I was 10 years old and watched Salem’s Lot on television- what were my parents thinking?? Since that time I’ve read his novels voraciously. I started listening to this podcast last year and have just caught up to the present day in the reading...Read full review »

Episodes are focused, full of good discussion, thorough, and fun to listen to. Thankee sais!

Without a doubt, this is my favourite podcast out of ANY podcast I have listened to, and I’ve listened along to sports podcasts, actor/comedian podcasts, science podcasts, etc. Now, I do love books, however, this show adds a whole other layer to reading and enjoying these novels. All 3 seasons...Read full review »

There is nothing more to say that hasn’t already been so eloquently said. Scott and Matt have changed the way I think about the dark tower … and every other story for that matter. Their insight inspires and delights every episode. 10/10 recommend

The episodes are long and I love them for it. Great insight on some of my favorite books! If you love King your going to love this podcast!

I just found this podcast and I am completely hooked. Fascinating insights and honest speculation. In less than two weeks I’ve listened to the break down of two different books :Eyes of the Dragon and The Stand. The analysis and conversations are intriguing. I’m genuinely delighted I found this....Read full review »

The Shining made me a Constant Reader when I was 12, and I’ve read 40+ Stephen King books since—and yet I only began reading The Dark Tower series recently. Even though I’m almost to the end, I started listening to Kingslingers from the beginning anyway because I just ~knew~ there were finer...Read full review »

I’m a huge King fan, yet somehow missed this podcast until now. I’m rereading The Dark Tower series (I still have my original books) for the 3rd time. I’m 3/4 through The Wastelands and came across this podcast and was immediately hooked. I’m catching things I’ve missed after 3 reads and loving...Read full review »
Holly_MB via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/22/23
I’m playing catch up and have worked my way through everything up till The Shining. Scott and Matt have an easy banter that only comes from years of friendship. The tangents they go off on are sometimes more fun than the scripted bits. While I don’t always agree with their interpretations I’ve...Read full review »

Truly one-of-kind. A must listen for any SK or Dark Tower fans!

I chanced upon this podcast via their review of ‘Salem’s Lot and now I’m hooked. Wonderful insight and sense of discovery. Warm and friendly conversation and a relaxed, unhurried vibe. I’m working my way through all the episodes now and I’m even considering trying the Dark Tower series again...Read full review »

I listen to a lot of different types of podcasts and this one has quickly become one of my all time favorites. I took my first journey to the tower in my early 20's. Now reaching 40 I'd listened to the audiobooks over the past couple years up to the Wasteland. Then I heard about...Read full review »

I’ve had the pleasure of listening to this podcast since shortly after it started. Thanks to these well spoken guys I’ve experienced King books that I’ve read and hadn’t read yet in a new and very informative way. The in depth breakdowns of each chapter of each book is thorough and rich with...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to this podcast from the very beginning. I listen to several other king podcasts that I will not name and yours is by far the best.

I’ve been reading these books in order (again) and this has been a tremendously beneficial source of additional information that is relevant to the source material. I recommend reading the books first, then listening to this after finishing each book to make sure you get all the details you may...Read full review »

I started listening to Kingslingers as I read through The Stand. Scott and Matt are hugely informative and thoughtful about all of King’s work. The format of having one as a constant reader of King’s and one as a newcomer works really well. The biggest compliment I can give is that after I...Read full review »

I found this podcast in the early days of lockdown in 2020, as a total Tower Junkie I was hooked right away. The format of one in the know and one newbie succeeds at capturing the joy of sharing something you love with a new audience. It’s like showing your favorite movie to someone who’s never...Read full review »

Came for the Dark Tower analysis, stayed for the King catalogue favorites. Let’s be honest, these guys could read and analyze the phone book and I would listen to it. They are so entertaining, so great together and I am SO excited they decided to palaver on! Long days and Pleasant nights indeed!
