Okay, NOW it feels like the rewatch is back, with good old Glenn and Maggie, and that creepy peeping Tom, Eugene. But at least he’s our peeping Tom?

Hey all, here’s another bonus episode, this time on the crazy new Apple TV show, Pluribus . Pluribus is the latest show from Breaking Bad creator, Vince Gilligan, who in our book is one of the all-time great TV creators. His writing is intelligent, meticulous, unexpected, and wry, and this show is wild. It’s very Twilight Zone-y. Creepy, thought provoking, thrilling, extremely odd in the best way, and super fun. If you haven’t tried it, we definitely recommend you give it a shot! And then, of course, listen to this podcast. And if you end up getting subsumed into the collective, we’ll be covering the rest of the season on Wax Episodic , available wherever you get podcasts, or at ⁠⁠waxepisodic.com⁠⁠ . PS If you’ve been a Podcastica listener for awhile, you might be interested know that the hosts for this podcast are me (Jason) and Karen, who started this network 15 years ago with The Walking Dead ‘Cast . So much fun podcasting with Karen again! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This finale, we think, is one of those episodes where if you squint just right, it’s full of holes, and if you shift your perspective just a little, it’s delightful! And we’re delighted to talk it out. Next time we’ll be going right back into the Walking Dead rewatch, and we really encourage anyone who hasn’t been listening along with us to that to jump back in!

Before we get to The Last of Us S2 here’s the repost I promised, from back in 2020 when Erik and I (Jason) were fresh off their first playthrough of The Last of Us Part II and eager to express how freaking great we thought it was! But fair warning! Season 2 will more-or-less follow the plot of the game, so don’t listen unless you’ve played or watched the game, or if you don’t mind spoilers. There’s a ~30-minute non-spoilery segment up front where we talk about gameplay and things like that, and then a ~45-minute super-spoilery-AF segment. Next week, Lucy and Jason will be back with a season 1 catch-up that won’t have any S2 spoilers. Next up: The Last of Us Season One Catch-Up, with Lucy and Jason. Let us know your thoughts!

The Last of Us season 2 is just around the corner, premiering Sunday April 13, and we’re excited!!! Join Jason, Erik, and Ben to chat about the new season. SPOILER WARNING: This episode is divided into two segments, with different levels of spoilery-ness: 1: News about the upcoming season, with LIGHT to MEDIUM spoilers. We talk about some of the characters and broad-setups for storylines. If you don’t mind the kinds of spoilers that appear in trailers and pre-season news articles, you’re safe listening to this segment. 2: Our thoughts and hopes on how the series will play out, based on what we know about the games, with HEAVY spoilers about what happened in the games, which often aligns with the show. Only listen to this if you’ve played or watched the games, or you don’t care at all about spoilers. Next week, Lucy and Jason will be back with a season 1 catch-up that won’t have any S2 spoilers.

This episode is a turning point for The Walking Dead. No more prison. No more Governor. And of course, no more Hershel :( It’s such a sad one, but it’s also one of the most highly rated episodes.

Hey, anyone need some cheering up, by any chance? You’ve come to the right place. First off, Karen and Wendy are on this one, so that’s probably enough said. But also, the three of us talk about a bunch of different ways we cheer ourselves up when we’re feeling down.

And there it is, we’ve come to the end of another season of the Daryl show, now with more Carol.

Bonjour tout le monde, so good to be back in the world of Daryl Dixon, this time avec plus de Carol. It’s kind of a tradition that we don’t always agree with Carol’s methods (you could ask Karen and David about that, you know, if they were alive) but we always love watching her. For our 600th episode, we’d love if any of you US citizens who aren’t yet registered to vote would do that. You can do that at vote.org , and merci beaucoup (seriously, thank you) to you if you do.

It’s the Governor! Both Lucy and I were surprised at how enjoyable it was to revisit this character.

It’s a favorite episode, especially remembered for that badass no-dialog opening where they’re killing zeds like a well-oiled team. But we noticed a lot of different ways this episode starts to feel more like what The Walking Dead became at its peak, tonally, with characterizations, and in other little ways. It’s a great one.

And we come to the end of season 2…. and Hershel’s farm… and Rick’s sanity? And of course this is such a special episode, in part because it’s a fantastic season finale, but most of all for me (Jason) because I got to be a zed in it! And Lucy and I are SO pleased to be joined by Gracie Lou of Under the Comic Covers, who helped me get on the show and who was right there with me over four thrilling nights of filming.

Jason and guest cohosts Randy and Sam all hold Mad Max: Fury Road as one of the best action movies ever (it’s Jason’s all-time favorite). So we were all excited for the sequel, Furiosa. Did it live up to Fury Road? No, but it was thrilling, funny, artful, imaginative, brutal, thought-provoking, well-acted, visually stunning, and yes, had some problems too.

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”.

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 there. We’ll be hanging out at an as-yet-to-be-determined pub in Glasgow on Wednesday July 17. Join us! More details to come soon. Announcement #2: Have you seen Fallout on Amazon? It’s pretty great. It’s a post-apocalyptic comedy sci-fi western with a ton of style, and Ben, Jason, and Doug put out a marathon three-hour podcast covering season one.

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 tea. We usually avoid talking politics on the podcast. I like that The Walking Dead and The Last of Us are something for people from different political backgrounds to connect on! But in this episode, with this movie, we went there. So there’s your warning. I think we handled it respectfully and thoughtfully, but you guys will have to be the judge, should you choose to listen! Happy to be joined this week by David and long-time listener Jim as Lucy unpacks boxes at her new house (!), and we’ll be back to the WD rewatch next week!

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 and guests will be covering the new Alex Garland movie Civil War that’s in theaters now. Highly recommend you guys watch it! It’s a dark, apocalyptic character drama and I think most fans of TWD will appreciate it. If you see it, we really want to know your thoughts!

All said and done, feelings were mixed about The Ones Who Live, often from the same person, which made for some interesting feedback.

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. :) Next up: Listener feedback for TWD: The Ones Who Live S1E5 “Become”.

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.

Man, these episodes take on a new flavor when you’ve spent a lot of time with the characters and know how things turn out.

So great to see the first appearance of the Greene family, with Maggie galloping in and saving the day with her bat (!), and Hershel confidently using his veterinarian skillz to save poor little Carl. As capable and confident as they are, that’s how broken down Rick is. Poor dude. Want to help us keep the rewatch going? Please let your WD-loving friends know we’re doing it.

After wrapping TWD season 1, take a quick detour over to Japan with us for the acclaimed 2017 Japanese zombie head-trip of a movie, One Cut of the Dead. The movie is available to stream on AMC+ and Shudder, and you can rent or buy it on other platforms. And we do recommend checking it out before listening to the podcast, and make sure to keep watching past the 37-minute mark…. Plus, it’s been awhile since we talked about any news on The Last of Us, and there is some, so we talk about it! You might be wondering why Lucy and I aren’t covering Return of the Living Dead as we had planned, and that’s because Lucy is out sick :( Hoping she’ll feel better ASAP.

It’s the end of season one with this rather strange episode in the history of TWD, with themes of sexual assault and suicide in this weirdly super-high-tech facility with the lone scientist who seems to know more about the ZA than anyone.

It’s the aftermath of the zombie attack on camp, and the group is shaken and has a bunch of decisions to make, like weather to kill Jim just because he was bitten, whether to go to an army base or the CDC, and in Shane’s case, whether to shoot his best friend so he can have a shot with his wife. What a stand up guy. Glad to be joined by Peter this week to help Lucy and me talk it out! Want to help us keep the rewatch going? Please let your WD-loving friends know we’re doing it.

If you’re a fan of Fear the Walking Dead, well… honestly you should probably skip this one, but lemme tell you, we had a blast recording it :) We’re thrilled to be joined by our favorite FTWD critic, Erik Kain, whose scathingly accurate reviews at Forbes you may have heard Lucy and I fawning over throughout the years. Erik helped us send FTWD off in appropriate fashion, along with a bunch of cathartic messages from y’all.

So fun to be re-evaluating these episodes. We both liked this one better on rewatch and found it had more depth and humor than we realized before. But we always appreciated the first time we saw a zombie bite or kill anyone, even though we were both sad to see Amy go (but of course not Ed). Want to help us keep the rewatch going?

What a pleasure to talk to the talented Josh Hamilton, the man behind the enigmatic, calculating, and endlessly watchable Walking Dead antagonist, Lance Hornsby! Lucy and I (with the help of you guys) asked him about all kinds of things, including: • Josh’s experience listening to our podcast • How much he knew about Lance’s character arc from the beginning • What kind of society he’d like to be a part of in the ZA • Whether Lance believes in the ideals of the Commonwealth or it’s more about power for him • Lance’s backstory • Josh’s thoughts about various WD characters and actors • What the mood was like working on his 1993 film, Alive • What stands out to him about working on the 2018 Bo Burnham-directed movie Eighth Grade • What he thinks about Lance’s fashion sense • What it’s like to be on TWD as it’s ending • And a lot more!

This interview with the wonderful Ross Marquand (Aaron) happened all because of The Sexton Single Malt and their brand new Walking-Dead-branded bottle of single malt Irish whiskey, which Ross is helping them promote and which you can pre-order right here: https://www.reservebar.com/products/the-sexton-single-malt-x-the-walking-dead-limited-edition Highly recommend checking that out! As always, it was awesome to talk with Ross. It was a quick interview, but we managed to cover some interesting topics like: What current-day Aaron would say to early Aaron. What it was like to film the intense late-season-10 episode “One More” with Gabriel and Mays (Robert Patrick). Whether he asked Angela Kang to change or add anything for Aaron. Whether his prosthetic arm comes off and on easily or needs to stay on all day during filming? How he’s feeling now the the end of The Walking Dead is in sight, and how he thinks he’s going to feel at the very end. And more!

It was a thrill to talk with Paola Lázaro about playing our favorite new Walking Dead character, Princess! She was even cooler than we thought she’d be (and we thought she’d be really cool). We covered a lot, including: What she loves about playing Princess. How she approached the character when she started. How she’s similar to Princess. What it was like to film her season 10C episode. Her thoughts on Andrew Lincoln. How she got Josh McDermitt to break character during a scene. How she feels about the fans. How she handles criticism. How she handles having ADHD. Her thoughts on Mercer and the actor who plays him, Michael James Shaw. Which WD character she would most like to play a scene with or write a scene for. What it’s like to come into the show near the end.. Whether she thinks the ZA has benefitted Princess. Whether she has improvised any of Princess’ lines. How well she thinks Princess would get along with Michonne. Whether she’s talked with Robert Kirkman. And more. Enjoy!

Such a pleasure to talk with Angela Kang, writer of last Sunday's excellently horrific episode, "Infected." She was gracious, open, and lots of fun. Joined by temporary cohost and fantabulous listener Pi'ilani, we asked Angela about a lot of things, including:* How season four is shaping up.* Whether she deliberately strives to write TWD like a classic horror movie.* What's going on with several characters old and new, including Rick, Michonne, Tyreese, Lizzie and Mika.* Whether she would have voted to kill Randall back in season two.* And a lot more.

Awesome episode this week, if we do say so ourselves, as we’re joined by special guests Chris and Jason from The Talking Dead podcast to give you our top ten highlights of season two. You can find the first half of our countdown over at talkingdeadpodcast.com, and the final five right here in this episode.And as an extra-special bonus, I had a fun and illuminating talk with Sean Vanaman, Jake Rodkin, and Harrison Pink, the lead developers of Telltale’s upcoming video game, The Walking Dead. The guys give us the scoop on which characters from the series will appear in the game, when it’ll be released, what the gameplay is like, and more. Telltale makes immersive, story- and character-based games and so we think they’re the perfect studio to do The Walking Dead justice.As always if you'd like to leave us a message you can call us at (650) 485-DEAD or email us at brains@walkingdeadcast.com.

Two special guests today, as longtime listener, first time co-host Gracie Lou joins me to interview the talented Lauren Cohan, a.k.a. Maggie Greene. Lauren talks about why Maggie has been so hot and cold with Glenn, what she likes most about doing The Walking Dead, what it takes for a zombie to scare her, and a lot more. And best of all she gave us a particularly unique, rather animalistic zombie sound. Rather pterodactyl-like, I’d say…. :)Note: We talked with Lauren about upcoming story lines in the comic a bit, and so there are one or two potential spoilers. They’re just small ones, but if you’re completely spoiler-averse, you may want to skip this one (but then again as we’ve seen thus far, just because something happens in the comic doesn’t mean it will happen on the show).And by the way, if you like what we’re doing, we especially appreciate getting reviews (or even just ratings) and subscriptions in iTunes.

Karen and I had an absolute blast talking to Walking Dead zombie guru extraordinaire, Greg Nicotero! Greg tells what it was like working on classic Romero zombie films, how the Walking Dead "well zombie" was made, who has the best zombie walk out of Quentin Tarantino, Robert Rodriguez, Simon Pegg, and Edgar Wright, and much more.Greg mentioned that the southwestern Pennsylvania cemetery chapel featured in several scenes of George Romero's Night of the Living Dead is in danger of being demolished, but there is an effort to save it.

Special bonus: Laurie makes a kick-ass zombie sound! She’d have had a shot at winning that poster for sure.P.S. - Stay tuned for the return of Karen and our post-finale reaction episode.
