Recovered heads back to Derry for IT Chapter 2

Dan, Keith, and guest Gina return to dig into the big screen version of Stephen King's It, the prequel spinoff Welcome to Derry, and more from the original novel (yes, there is still weird sex stuff left to unpack). In 2017, Andy Muschietti brought a new version of It to the big screen, one that drifted further from the source material... well, half of it, specifically the kid half, and when it proved to be a hit, the adults followed in 2019. Gina's back to compare and contrast the movies with the novel: what they kept, what they skipped, what they invented. Meanwhile Dan digs into what extra layers have been added by the prequel series Welcome to Derry, which proves the passion the Muschiettis (and Dan) have for Pennywise lore. And Keith falls between, reminding us all of the actual topic. All the evil clown discourse you could ask for! Listen in!
