Episode Description
Wil Wheaton if you’re reading this please unblock me.
On this week’s episode of Spineless, Nick and Brennan discuss Rob Reiner’s 1986 coming-of-age masterpiece STAND BY ME. It’s the kind of conversation that seems important until you discover girls — they run through their own personal histories with Stephen King’s work / Pez dispensers, cultural osmosis through Family Guy, and whether or not kids these days still hang out by train tracks (Brennan editorializing here to say that if you are a child you should go hang out by some train tracks).
