0:00.0	Long days, pleasant nights, and welcome to Kingslingers, a Do Doof Media podcast journeying through Stephen King's Dark Tower series and beyond.
0:24.8	I am your host, Constant Reader Scott Daly, and I'm joined, as always, by my co-host, Maddie Wise, the dancing clown.

1:48.4	But I am looking forward to this quite a bit.
