Stephen King Archives Vol. 3: King's Garbage Truck - Spring 1969
Added 2021-09-30 05:22:39 +0000 UTCConstant Listeners, there is an archives to the Derry Private Library. Thanks to our Losers' Club historian Bryant Burnette, we have unearthed an entire vault of Stephen King material. From unpublished short stories to long-forgotten interviews, dusty manuscripts to alternate versions of your favorite tales, there is much to discuss...
This month, as the bells ring in school halls across the world, we're taking a closer look at Stephen King's college column, King's Garbage Truck.
The series was published in The Maine Campus from February 20, 1969 to May 21, 1970 during King's junior and senior years at The University Maine.
There were a total of 47 installments published: 34 in 1969 and 13 in 1970. Today, however, the Losers are going to focus specifically on those that ran in the Spring of 1969.
What's this column about, you ask? How did it originate? Listen above as Losers Randall Colburn, Michael Roffman, and Jenn Adams parse through its first semester.
Then, stay tuned next month when we return to the Stephen King Archives to celebrate Halloween by reading the uncollected works behind 1982's Creepshow.

This was terrific! It might be the most in-depth discussion of these columns anyone has ever had.
