Show notes

Let's get scared.


Halloween is upon us - or just over if you prefer listening to this podcast after the weekend - and so it's time to get all seasonal with our Top 5 theme.


Ace film and TV critic Chris Wasser returns to NO ENCORE HQ with a musical accompaniment of horror's most successful scribe - Stephen King.


Chris' list takes in a range of the songs associated with the man's extensive body of work, from movies to TV shows to, but of course, the books themselves.


Elsewhere, Dave and Adam report back from a lively Bank Holiday Monday at Dublin's 3Arena and there's plenty of news to get through, also.


Speaking of scary cinematic engagements, do not miss the latest NO ENCORE Film Club as Dave and Andy sink their teeth into the Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt nocturnal epic Interview With the Vampire - sign up to the Patreon now for a mere fiver, you won't regret it!


As for this week's offering...


ACT ONE: Macklemore - and friends - conquered Dublin as the first night of the Free Palestine tour got underway. Dave and Adam review accordingly.


ACT TWO (22:27): Enter Chris, and a quick "best and worst films of 2026" shootout with Dave ensues.


ACT THREE (43:37): A lengthy Billy Corgan interview provokes numerous headlines, Donald Trump sizes up superfan Nicki Minaj, Charli XCX links up with Martin Scorsese, and what's the world like without headphones? It's the news.


ACT FOUR (1:15:57): Top 5 Stephen King Songs.
