Wil WheatonEvery podcast appearance, updated as new ones drop

I hope you brought your sad tissues with you today because this episode gets emotional real dang quickly. Our guest is Wil Wheaton who is returning to The Kingcast to talk about all things Stand By Me and The Body as Rob Reiner's film celebrates its 40th anniversary and Wil steps behind the mic and into adult Gordy LaChance's shoes as he narrates a new audiobook of Stephen King's novella, The Body. We recorded this just two days after Wheaton appeared on stage at the Oscars for Rob Reiner's memorial and let's just say the emotions are still running strongly, but luckily for us Wil is very open about what he's feeling and what Rob meant to him as an artist and a father figure, the man who Wil believes was the first person to actually show him unconditional love and support as a young man. So jump in as Wil recounts some stories from the making of the iconic movie and gives us insight into the process of revisiting this classic 40 years later where he, not Richard Dreyfuss, gets to lead us through it. As a special bonus, Simon & Schuster have given us a preview of Wil Wheaton's reading of The Body, which is available for purchase now wherever you get your audiobooks. Make sure to stay to the end of the interview to hear a piece of Wheaton's narration. Copyright © 1982 by Stephen King.

Today on Too Opinionated we talk with the Iconic Wil Wheaton! From starring in Stand by Me to playing Wesley Crusher on Star Trek: The Next Generation to playing himself, in his second (third?) iconic role of Evil Wil Wheaton in The Big Bang Theory, to becoming a social media supernova, Wil Wheaton has charted a career course unlike anyone else, and has emerged as one of the most popular and well-respected names in science fiction, fantasy and pop culture. So… how did this story begin? How does it continue? Well, Wil Wheaton grew up. Ideally, this is what everyone does. But most of us don't do it in front of millions of people. Most of us don't get famous for being kids. Wil Wheaton was a very famous kid—right up until he wasn't. After that, he wasn't sure who he was at all. So, in 2001, Wil started a blog. It was less about being a famous kid than about being a not-so-famous grownup. He wrote about his pets and his hobbies, punk rock and parenting, board games and birthdays and (most importantly) burritos. He thought he was writing for an audience of one: himself. To be fair, he was only off by about 3 million people. In STILL JUST A GEEK: An Annotated Memoir (William Morrow; on sale 4/12/2022; $28.99), an older, somewhat wiser Wil revisits Just a Geek , his 2004 collection of those blog posts, with all-new reflections that show just how far he's come. In this vulnerable, honest memoir about trying and failing and trying again, Wil opens up about love, trauma, tragedy, and confronting the worst parts of himself. Equal parts funny and poignant, Still Just a Geek weighs the folly of youth against the pain of experience—and celebrates all the strange, awful, beautiful adventures in between. So, in fact, to say that Wil Wheaton grew up would be to miss the point entirely. The point is that Wil Wheaton is still growing. Hopefully, he'll never stop.
