It's episode 47... all work and no play makes How to Survive a dull podcast..  The Shining (1980) tells the story of Jack Torrance and his family during their stint as caretakers of The Overlook Hotel. The hotel appears to be linked to some kind of supernatural force which combines clairvoyance, telepathy and general malevolence, eventually causing Jack's sanity to come into question. We talk about the logistics of cross-country telepathy; how to stay motivated when working on a novel; and the importance of always accounting for Delbert Grady. All of which leads to one big question:  How would you survive? Whatever happens, one thing's for sure... Podcasts are like people: some shine and some don't. Another classic film solved by thev best movie podcast in the world.
