This week we begin Part 2: The Lady of Shadows, covering chapters 1 through 3 where we spend some time with Detta and Odetta before yanking them into Roland's increasingly crowded beach party.
Next week we'll conclude Part 2: The Lady of Shadows with chapter 4 and re-shuffle. Remember to check out the show schedule below if you're ever unsure of which chapters are covered when!
Listener Discussion:
One of Odetta’s defining characteristics is being part of “The Movement” for civil rights for people of color, Why do you think King chose to explore this idea in this book?

0:00.0 | Long days, pleasant nights, and welcome to Kingslingers, a doof media podcast journeying through Stephen King's Dark Tower series. |
0:24.0 | My name, it's constant reader, Scott Daly, and this is my kind limo driver who's extremely worried about those times I go missing for days at a time. |
0:31.6 | Matt Freeman. |
0:32.9 | Oh, I wouldn't say anything about it, though. |
0:34.9 | Don't want to pry. |
0:35.9 | I'm so glad you did an Irish accent on that, because I like, so I don't listen to the audio books, except I was hanging out today with not as much to do as normal. |
0:48.0 | And I was like, I'm out of podcast to listen to. |
0:50.6 | I'll listen to some of the audiobook. |
0:52.6 | And I saw that they did an Irish accent for |
0:55.2 | Andrew. And I was like, yes. If we read anything he says, we have to do that an Irish accent. And |

1:32.5 | Odetta and Deda aren't aware of each other, but Roland and Eddie are as they yank the lady into Roland's world drawing the second of the three. |
1:38.9 | Eddie immediately follows his love with Odetta, even as Roland warns him that there's another woman inside there and she's nothing but trouble. All right, Matt, what did you think about this week's reading? |
1:47.8 | Yeah, I mean, it continues to be wild and unpredictable, right? Just, I think that's, I don't know |
