King Me30 - Needful Things (1993) w/ Brock WilburThe voice of Brock Wilbur stops by for a loving discussion of this hand-picked sorta-Faustian, sorta-monkey's paw, sorta-Rolling Stones classic. NEEDFUL THINGS is the story of what happens when the devil comes to Castle Rock (he opens an antique shop).
Also in this episode: how to spot a forgery, and the devil's nickname for Jesus becomes King Me canon.
