    4: Watching IT: Welcome to Derry Ep. 4 - "The Great Swirling Apparatus of Our Planet’s Function"
    Nov 17 2025
    The latest episode of HBO Max’s IT: Welcome to Derry has everything: eye trauma, racial injustice, psychic probes, evil white people screwing things up for everybody, at least two red balloon sightings, and, say it with me, familial trauma represented as horror!

    Vespe and Brez take a look at all the puzzle pieces being moved into place and make some educated guesses as to what is being set up and comment on the expansions to the IT lore that are explored in a pretty massive flashback in this episode.

    You’re Watching It: Welcome to Derry and so are co-hosts Eric Vespe and Anthony Breznican. The duo return for Episode 3, titled Now You See It, which turns out to be a quite literal title as the famous clown is seen by multiple characters as this episode plays out. Dick Hallorann (Chris Chalk) and our lovable ragtag group of weirdo kids both have run-ins with this entity in its most familiar form. Everybody is looking for the clown in this one and the clown obliges! You also get a flashback to the 1908 cycle that helps explain just why the hell the Air Force knows about It. Breznican and Vespe examine all the different plot threads and point out the most intriguing developments along with the stuff that didn’t sit right with them, including possibly the jankiest supernatural attack portrayed in the series so far. Neither of your humble hosts were happy with the big finale sequence, so spin up the ep and give it a listen to see if you agree or not!

    Pennywise returns and the preeminent Stephen King voices in podcasting will be Watching IT: Welcome to Derry! Join Anthony Breznican and Eric Vespe (The Kingcast) as each episode rolls out week to week, digging deeper into It's backstory as the fear-mongering monster terrorizes a different set of kids over decades before the events of the recent It films.

    From the creators of It: Chapters 1 and 2 and starring Jovan Adepo, Clara Stack, Amanda Christine, Chris Chalk, James Remar, and, of course, Bill Skarsgard, season 1 of IT: Welcome to Derry promises to expand on the historical horror hinted at in King's novel.

    Vespe and Breznican will be there for all eight episodes to give their opinions, critiques, and nerd out whenever appropriate as Andy Muschietti's expansion of the lore established in Stephen King's masterpiece novel plays out. Want to make sure you caught all the easter eggs in each episode? Are you curious where the story hues closer to the original text and where it drastically departs? Do you wish to be lulled into a zen-like state of meditative bliss as the dulcet tones of two professional podcast nerds excitedly discuss killer clowns, terrified children, and the underlying rot of racism and bigotry in small town 1960s America? If the answer is yes to any of these questions then you're in the right place.

    Hosts Anthony Breznican and Eric Vespe are Watching IT: Welcome to Derry, so sit back, relax, and follow along.
