: Based on the best-selling book series by Stephen King. Two years after retiring, former homicide detective Bill Hodges is still haunted by his last case – a massacre that left sixteen people dead. When the demented culprit begins to torment Hodges, he is compelled to revisit the case.

Stephen King is no stranger to murderous cars. From Christine and From a Buick 8 to the malevolent Goblin truck haunting the roads of Maximum Overdrive, the master of horror knows his way around gory gear shifts, sinister steering wheels, and dangerous drivers. In 2014, he released Mr. Mercedes, a crime novel pitting Bill Hodges, a retired detective, against Brady Hartsfield, a criminal mastermind disguised as the ice cream man. Both survive the novel's explosive conclusion, though Brady is left in a vegetative state. After a brief detour into the world of rare publications with the 2015 sequel Finders Keepers, King catches up with the disabled criminal and his newfound psychic powers. End of Watch sees Hodges once again match wits with his old nemesis aided by partners Holly and Jerome.  Hosts Randall Colburn, Jenn Adams, Rachel Reeves, and Ashley Casseday hop back into the blood-soaked Mercedes to conclude their coverage of this confounding trilogy. They'll discuss King's swerve into supernatural territory while puzzling over the story's bizarre tech. Does this 2016 novel elevate the trilogy as a whole? How does King handle the story's suicide themes? Does Jerome have any flaws and what's up with all the Zs? The Losers reach the end of the road as they say goodbye to one of King's most autobiographical characters In case you missed it, they recently covered Mr. Mercedes and Finders Keepers within the last few months.

This week we finish off our coverage of King's crime fiction by taking a look at season 1 of the adaptation of King's Mr. Mercedes. We chat about the excellent depictions of Brady Hartsfield, the changes to Bill Hodges, and the satisfaction of filling in some of the side characters.  Next week our final book of the show begins as we read and discuss the first 5 chapters of Stephen King's Fairy Tale.

After taking a quick (and bleak) detour with the macabre Revival, Stephen King returned to the characters he introduced in 2014's Mr. Mercedes with 2015's Finders Keepers. The second in a trilogy of novels about aging detective Bill Hodges, Finders Keepers follows a young boy whose discovery of a trunk filled with cash (and moleskin notebooks) puts him in the crosshairs of a psychopathic bookworm.  In this episode of The Losers' Club, hosts Randall Colburn, Jenn Adams, Rachel Reeves, and Ashley Casseday slip on their pocket protectors and duct-taped specs to discuss King's return to the obsessed fan archetype. Along the way, they touch on parasocial fandom, rare book dealers, butts, and whether the story even needs Hodges and co. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Dave McArthur and Bill Hodges discuss the 2008 novel The Three Body Problem while sipping baiju.

After releasing The Colorado Kid and Joyland via the Hard Case Crime imprint, Stephen King made his grand debut into the world of hard-boiled crime fiction with Mr. Mercedes. The first in a trilogy, the 2014 novel introduced readers to Bill Hodges, a crusty, retired detective who finds his golden years interrupted by the taunts of a psychopathic killer he failed to apprehend.  Join the Losers as they detail the book's origins, how it differs from the author's previous forays into crime, and the ways in which it reflects evolving societal fears about domestic terrorism. They also discuss the book's messy vision of a post-recession America and its musings on class, second chances, and the nature of evil. It's also one of King's poundcakiest books, so prepare to blush. Follow us on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Patreon Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Bill Hodges was born in Lebanon, Indiana and grew up near Zionsville where he attended high school and played basketball for Indiana Hall of Fame coach Jim Rosenstihl. After graduation Hodges spent four years in the United States Air Force, where he traveled the Far East. After completing his armed forces duty he attended Edison Junior College in Fort Myers, Florida where he played basketball for Indiana and Florida Hall of Fame coach, Hugh Thimlar. Hodges transferred from Edison to Purdue University before he completed his collegiate degree at Marian University in Indianapolis, Indiana where he became a student basketball coach. He went on to Tennessee Tech University in Cookeville, Tennessee where he received his Master's Degree and became a full time assistant college basketball coach. Bill spent the next ten years as an assistant college coach and sixteen years as a head college coach at Indiana State, Georgia College, and Mercer University. He is most well remembered for his tenure at Indiana State University, where his ISU Sycamores, led by Larry Bird, were the runners up to Michigan State in the 1979 NCAA National Championship. Hodges was named AP, UPI, Sporting News, and Kellogg National Coach of the year for his inaugural year as a head coach. After his retirement from Basketball Coaching Bill was drafted back into coaching as the basketball coach at Roanoke Catholic High School until they dropped their varsity program. He was then hired to rebuild the North Cross School program and in two years coached them to a 60‐12 record and 1 final 4 and 1 state champion runner up position. Bill presently resides with his daughter Zoie's family in The Villages, Florida. bhodges33@live.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kevin-furtado/support

Sixty thousand claims are under mandatory review due to a court order and the passing of the Blue Water Navy bill by congress. Rashmi talks with Bill Hodges about the way that review will be handled and how those who have not filed, or even the spouse/family, can file claims for Agent Orange exposure on naval ships. For some, it can mean hundreds of thousands of dollars in back pay on claims previously denied that might now be approved.  Bill tells you often on this show not to count yourself out. If you think you might have benefits coming to you, file for them. Even if your claim is denied, as was the case with these 60,000 claims, circumstances change, and claims can be reactivated.  Listen in to learn more.

Así comienza la fascinante nueva novela de Stephen King sobre un lector fanático. El genio es John Rothstein, un autor de culto, creador del personaje de Jimmy Gold. Morris Bellamy está fuera de sí, no solo porque Rothstein haya dejado de escribir, sino también porque considera que el inconformista Jimmy Gold se ha vendido para dedicarse a la publicidad. Morris decide matar a Rothstein y vacía su caja fuerte para llevarse no solo todo el dinero sino además el verdadero tesoro: los cuadernos de notas de otra novela protagonizada por Jimmy Gold. Morris lo esconde todo y al día siguiente acaba en la cárcel por otro crimen terrorífico. Décadas más tarde un chico llamado Pete Saubers encuentra el tesoro y ahora son él y su familia a quienes han de salvar Bill Hodges, Holly Gibney y Jerome Robinson del vengativo y trastornado Morris cuando salga de la cárcel tras treinta y cinco años encerrado. Desde Misery Stephen King no había vuelto a retratar a un lector cuya obsesión por un escritor irá demasiado lejos. Quien pierde paga es un thriller absorbente, de ritmo vertiginoso, pero también es un libro sobre cómo la literatura puede moldear una vida para bien, para mal, para siempre. #penguinaudio #audiolibro #audiolibros #Stephen #King #StephenKing See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Join in as we discuss Josh’s power trip at being the only one of the three whose read it, the insanely intense opening chapter, the ways Bill Hodges is a flawed hero, tramp stamps, getting inside the head of Brady Hartsfield, the treatment of Olivia Trelawny, Bill’s skill as a detective, if Jerome’s alter ego is more problematic or honest, the abusive relationship between Brady and his mom, and the search for the Mercedes Killer comes down to sending a simple message. Join us on Under Debbie’s Blue Umbrella for Episode 81, “Everything is Gross”.

End of Watch (The Bill Hodges Trilogy) : By - Stephen King Brady's back in End of Watch. Also, on the off chance that you'd asked me whether the information on Brady being back was exciting, I would've replied with a 'meh'. However, then we found out that getting half his head beaten in with the happy slapper some way or another gave him supernatural abilities and things got much more interesting.

Stephen argues that good ideas come from nowhere. It might be two unrelated ideas in your brain that will suddenly collide and create something beautiful. Your job is not to find these ideas but to recognise them when they show up. So you need to be ready, to listen, look around and see where those ideas might appear. This means turning off the TV and putting away other screens to start noticing things in order to be ready for the good ideas to arrive. He also talks about readiness by taking writing seriously, being intentional and approaching the blank page with meaning. BIG IDEA 2 (8:21) – Kill your darlings (and your adverbs). Creating a space between the original writing and your final draft can make a world of difference. When it comes to editing, Stephen said that when you write a story, you are telling yourself the story. But when you re-write, your main job is to take out the things that are not the story. Editing involves killing the words, paragraphs and even characters that you put in and that you are so attached to, but you have to let go of in order to tell the best story. One of the quotes in the book says that “writing is refined thinking.” It is not just talking on paper.  This also includes killing your desire to use longer words than necessary. He said that the best words you should use are the first ones that come to your mind, if they do the job. And whilst you are busy killing your darlings, you should be killing your adverbs too. They are a lazy way of describing an action or dialogue which should have been made obvious by the preceding prose. BIG IDEA 3 (12:13) – Read a lot, write a lot. Reading equals writing. Stephen said that if you don’t have the time to read, you don’t have the time, or the tools, to write. Reading broadly let’s you work out what you do and don’t like and can help you find your style. Joining writing classes might not give you the silver bullet to writing, but helps you find good critics. There is no secret ingredient, just read a lot and write a lot. This goes back to the big idea number one about being serious and not coming lightly to the blank page. It takes intent and a lot of practice to write well.   Music By: Cinematic Ambient Piano by OlexandrIgnatov (via Envato Elements) Let’s Connect LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/steph-clarke Instagram: @stephsbizbookshelf Enjoying the show?

In episode 267 I'm speaking with Mr. Bill Hodges. He's not a healthcare professional or an industry leader or author or researcher either. Just a guy who's had his own struggle with back pain. But there's more to the story - including his exposure to a resource which has helped him tremendously and with which he's shared with countless others. It's a great story with potentially some great lessons for those of us who educate and treat patients on a daily basis. This week on MCF!

Adam shows us Bill Hodges, a man who is still at it after all these years. The hogs squeal in delight as Matt Gaetz makes up Honodurans. Dave gets too excited about Donna to talk about her past her accomplishments as UM president, corporate stooge, Clinton Foundation Czar and now lackluster US congressional candidate. Squeal, baby, squeal. Intro- "Florida Boy" Rick Ross ft. T-Pain and Kodak Black Outro- The Bill Hodges News Boogie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGon2ZU5pkU&t=33s "Guantanamera" Enrique Santos ft.
