Folks, this week Pat and Joe talk all about the 1984 science fiction/horror film Firestarter, based on the Stephen King book of the same name! Also: more Baio talk, the audiobook of The Game, a Seinfeld bit, and more. In Pat's Movie Corner: updates on Sharp Objects and Castle Rock, BlacKkKlansman, and Evilspeak.
== Before The Film ==
* Joes' taking pauses during the intro because if you do it, you don't have to talk as much.
* On With The Joe!: The Prodigy - Firestarter
* The boys are not fans of Nine Inch Nails.
* What about the Red Hot Chili Peppers? They're autotuned, Kiedis can't sing live. Joe wants to like him because he looks like Justin Long.
* They went to the It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia premiere. 
** First two episodes are funny, despite the performance of Mindy Kaling.
** The theater applauds when Dennis returns to replace the sex doll.
* What happens on Charles in Charge?
** Charles is responsible, Willie Ames is the horny character.
** Pat is listening to the audiobook of The Game by Neil Strauss. Mystery gets Scott Baio's girlfriend's number in front of him.

== Joe's Scary Stuff ==
* Joe's going to Japan, has a Famicom coming in the mail, and hopes to buy Holy Diver. 
* He also wants to buy The Messenger to play on the flight over on his Nintendo Switch.
* Pat watched the Firestarter documentary, in which director Mark L. Lester tells how he hired a writer who turned in a 300 page draft of the movie, basically transcribed the book into screenplay form. They waited a month to turn in his pared down version so the studio would think they tried.
== The Film ==
* It's bad folks. Definitely no Cujo. 
* Tangerine Dream did the music and the score sucked! Joe bought the soundtrack before hearing it.
* Ebert describes George C. Scott as a "Native American child molester", which is not mentioned in the movie or book.
* It's a less interesting Carrie, with the Stephen King explanation that it's a government project.
* It's up there with Maximum Overdrive and is worse than Silver Bullet. Next episode, discuss the worst Stephen King adaptations?
* Are you in Atlanta? Go to the taping of Joe's special!
* Shoutouts.
