The Walking Dead 'Cast

Our folks are cleaning up in this episode (except Daryl), as they face the culture shock of quaint idyllic Alexandria after having gone through hell for the past couple years of their lives. Quite nostalgic to see them arrive here, right? We thought so. Next up: The Walking Dead S5E13 “Forget”. Let us know your thoughts! You can email or send a voice message to talk@podcastica.com.  Or check out o...

Happy New Year everybody! Here's our last episode on the road before the group settles in (more or less) at Alexandria, and I and special guest Robin Springer are savoring it. It’s a great episode, with Aaron really shining in his first full appearance after his short intro last week. Mentioned: Jason’s interview with Ross Marquand: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-cast-of-us-a-last-of-us...

Is this the bleakest episode of The Walking Dead? It’s up there for sure. It’s also a fantastic episode, with our found family of characters persisting, enduring, surviving, and supporting each other even at their lowest. We’re happy to be joined by special guest Megan Lehman as we talk it out.  PS Merry Christmas and happy holidays everybody! We’re taking this next week off, so we’ll be back with...

What happened is that Tyreese got bitten :( What’s going on is that we have Danielle on to talk about this uniquely artful episode of The Walking Dead.  Next up: The Walking Dead S5E9 “Them”. Let us know your thoughts!

Ah Beth, you deserved so much better than this. To help mark this moment, we have special guest Becky Anderson from the What’s On Tonight podcast, who’s favorite TWD character is Beth.  Mentioned: Check out Becky’s What’s On Tonight Podcast: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6CYZjrcBK1U7qsQyLwhALf?si=43c79b0e908e4b01 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Whats-On-Tonight/61566882612402/ ...

Is this the beginning of Rick’s “dark era”? Or is he a straight-up hero doing exactly what needs to be done? Whichever it is, it’s a great watch, and I’m happy to have Lucy back with me to talk it out! Mentioned: Jason & Karen, together again! Check out our coverage of Pluribus over on Wax Episodic, wherever you get podcasts, or at waxepisodic.com.  Next up: Back to the rewatch! It’s The Walking D...

This is one of those episodes that might seem slow, but rewards a careful viewing. Especially beautiful if you love Carol and Daryl (and don’t we all?). Happy to be joined by Carol/Daryl-lover Robyn for this one.  Mentioned: Steve Jobs 2005 Stanford Commencement Speech: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UF8uR6Z6KLc  Jason & Karen, together again! Check us out over on Wax Episodic, wherever you get p...

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? Anyway, it was great having Steve Brown guesting with me on this one, especially since he has a military background, like Sgt. Abraham.  Mentioned: Jason & Karen, together again! Check us out over on Wax Episodic, available wherever you get podcasts,...

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,...

It’s another one of those episodes that’s maybe not as well loved as most WD eps, right? So I’m glad to have Kelsey guesting with me, who was particularly interested in talking about this one, and we really dug into it.  Mentioned: Kelsey’s podcast They Did What?! Breaking Down Wild Documentaries & Docuseries: https://podcastica.com/podcast/they-did-what  Next up: Back to the rewatch! It’s The Wal...

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! It’s great to revisit The Walking...

Helping me go through your feedback this week is Rebecca, who’s not only a longtime TWD fan and all-around kick-ass person, but she can also help me pronounce all these Spanish titles correctly. ¡Increíble!  Next up: TWD: Daryl Dixon S3E7 “Solaz del Mar”.

This week Daryl’s big caper is foiled by an extra sturdy lock. Lol. But the plot progressed, and everything is teed up for a showdown at El Alcazar in the season finale!

What’s up, did the Daryl show just serve us up the most impressive battle sequence in Walking Dead history?! Lucy and Jason definitely thought it was up there, in this solid, Cooper-ific episode.  Announcements: I’m opening up our previously Patreon-exclusive Discord server to all Podcastica listeners. Come join us!  Don’t know what Discord is? It’s kind of like a chat forum, our own little privat...

Fun episode this week, with maybe a romance brewing between Carol and Antonio, and Daryl just trying to GTFO of town. I’m happy to be joined by longtime listener and friend, Megan Lehman.  ANNOUNCEMENT: Starting next week, Jason will be covering Fallout on Wax Episodic. Have you seen this show? It’s a fun-yet-brutal, highly stylized, intelligent, funny post-apocalyptic sci-fi drama staring Ella Pu...

A lot going on in this episode, presumably to set up the story for the rest of the season. We were confused about a few things at first. You? Maybe we can all figure it out together.

Season three of TWD: Daryl Dixon starts off with a simple story of two friends trying survive, with the European beauty and panache that this show does at its best, and we loved it!

You can email or send a voice message to talk@podcastica.com.  Or c...

What can I say, this is a lot of people’s favorite episode of The Walking Dead, me included. It’s just firing on all cylinders: It’s thrilling, it’s disturbing in a creative way, at times it’s terrifying, and in the end, it’s triumphant. So much fun to revisit this one!
