Yech, the one where Andrea leaves suicidal Beth alone with a knife after promising Maggie she’d keep watch over her, and Lori argues that Andrea should stick with “women’s work”. A surprisingly good episode all things considered :P And we’re thrilled to be joined this week by Archmaester Renny, cohost of Dragon ‘Cast.

I remembered loving this episode because of the zombie scenes, and they were just as good on rewatch. The soapy drama, yeah it was alright too ;)

Back to the rewatch! This is the first ep with Glen Mazzara as showrunner, and I remember being worried whether the show would still be good after Darabont left, and then being relieved that it was great. But do we still feel that way….? 

Announcement: Karen, David, and I (Jason) are excited to be headed to Scotland this summer to hang out with Lucy and Peter, and we’d love to meet any of you guys who are in the area or can get ther...

This ep we’re covering the new Alex Garland dystopian action movie, Civil War, in theaters now.
On one hand this movie is right up this podcast’s alley: it feels post-apocalyptic and it’s a harrowing, thought-provoking story with great characters, thrilling sequences, and a lot of heart. On the other hand, it hits so close to home in the most disturbing way, and it provokes political discussion that might not be everyone’s cup of t...

Here’s part two of your feedback for the finale of The Ones Who Live. I don’t know if I’ve ever podcasted on something that hit emotional beats so well and so intensely like this while asking us to swallow some pretty ridiculous logistical plot points, and that made for some varied and passionate feedback from you guys :) We love it!

Next up: Lucy’s on break for awhile (we’ll be getting back to the rewatch in early May), so Jason an...

All said and done, feelings were mixed about The Ones Who Live, often from the same person, which made for some interesting feedback. More of you than ever wanted to talk about it (which is awesome) so we’re splitting the feedback up into two parts. Here’s part 1 with special guests Jenny and Randy from the Welcome to the Apocalypse podcast.

As is the way with TWD sometimes, this episode made us care a little more about a character before killing her off! A fitting end though, and some great nostalgia in this ep with the return of Gabriel, and some wonderful lightness with Rick and Michonne pretty much on a post-apocalyptic honeymoon. :)

Wow, what an outstanding episode Danai Gurira wrote, and also brilliantly performed with Andrew Lincoln. Intimate, emotional, surprising, and triumphant. Lucy and I both loved it were looking forward to podcasting about it the moment we saw it. Hope you enjoy.

Wow, we did not see that coming. As Lucy said, Rick is a dick. :) We had somewhat different takes on what he did though, and hope you enjoy the discussion.

Great round of feedback from you guys for the premiere of The Ones Who Live! Most of you liked it and had a lot of interesting comments, questions, and theories, and the ones of you who didn’t like it much had some thoughtful things to say about it. As always, these feedback episodes really help us see the show in a new light and appreciate it more, and honestly they’re just a lot of fun. Cheers :)

Ricky-dicky-doo-da is back! As bleak as this episode was (and it was seriously bleak), it was such a joy to see Rick and Michonne on our screens again. This ep had a lot going on and we hope you guys enjoy our breakdown.

If you guys are like us, you can’t help but be excited for the return of Michonne and Rick freaking Grimes! We spend this episode getting ready for the new show by going over some of the things we especially love about these two characters, and also we catch you up quickly on everything you need to know plot-wise to be ready for The Ones Who Live.

It’s the classic 1985 zombie comedy, The Return of the Living Dead, the first movie where the zombies said “Braaaiiiinnnns!” And it’s also the return of Karen! I can’t believe Karen and I never covered this one before. It was a blast to talk it through with her and Lucy, and to just kind of let the conversation go wherever it wanted. Hope you enjoy :)
