## Resource

Life is like a broken-down Pinto… you never know how good you have it until you get out and a rabid St. Bernard tries to bite your face off. That’s right, we’re combining forces to talk about Animal Attack April AND Stephen King and rip into 1983’s CUJO! Here to help us stick our noses into the disease-filled hole in the ground is screenwriter, director, and producer, Lila McLaughlin! Along the way, we explore King’s miracle run of early novels, decide who in this story is actually the villain, put some respect on the name of Dee Wallace Stone, and visit beautiful Castle Rock, Maine/California! All this, plus cursed clown lamps, the return of Magnum P.I. Cat, Twinkle problems, Maine Grouches, slime dogs, and a throat-ripping edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure! Take a bite out of life with us today, won't you?
