THE JAUNT | Teleportation • Consciousness • Water Crisis 

In honor of Leap Day, David takes a look at a short story that also deals with the wonkiness of time: Stephen King’s science-fiction horror teleportation tale "THE JAUNT," from the 1985 collection SKELETON CREW.
Along the way, David also explores...
• the "Framed Narrative" storytelling device, using THE PRINCESS BRIDE and THE USUAL SUSPECTS as examples
• human consciousness, citing Sam Harris and René Descartes
• the global water crisis
And of course, David reads plenty of excerpts from the short story, including the infamous horrifying ending. So inhale a lungful of gas and strap in as David teleports you into the dark corners of Stephen King's mind with... THE JAUNT!
