This week on Derry Public Radio, CM and Josh delve into the poignant short story “Lucky Quarter” from Stephen King’s collection Everything’s Eventual. Set against the backdrop of a struggling single mother, Darlene, who stumbles upon a quarter that she believes could change her luck, the hosts explore themes of poverty, hope, and the bittersweet nature of dreams. As they navigate Darlene’s journey through the ups and downs of her life, they discuss the emotional weight of her struggles and the impact of luck on her reality.
