SQUAWKING DEAD

After recapping the story/characters of DARK WINDS , thus far, we jump into a troubling/unsettling Season 3 . Lt. Joe Leaphorn is off-balance: his marriage with Emma Leaphorn and policework alongside Sgt. Jim Chee & Sheriff Gordo Sena . FBI Agent Silvia Washington further exacerbates the balance in her quest to solve the disappearance of BJ Vines . Things aren't going as U.S. Border Patrol...

Just catching you all up on what we've been up to and (with your help in the audience) where we're headed! In particular, we want you to catch up on Dark Winds because we're definitely covering Season 3 (premiering March 9th on AMC ). With both The Walking Dead: Dead City & The Last Of Us coming out in April, it's going to be a hell of a quarter! Tell us what you're watching in the comments/re...

No mics prepared for our first-thing-in-the-morning chat with Danay Garcia and Mo Collins ! So we did our best with the sound and added subtitles (on Spotify Video) to fill in the blanks regarding: The rigors of shooting in Texas; the state of the film and television industry; moments of gratitude and grace; and special shout-out to a sorely missed Daryl "Chill" Mitchell . 🎭 Mo Collins Sarah Rabi...

SILO 's Season 2 finale not only ended on a bigger cliffhanger - let's not forget that flashback (which we'll see more of next season) - there are quite the amount of leftover questions! Be careful what you wish for, Robert Sims , you might (not) just get it. Bernard Holland appreciates Martha Walker 's dramatic flair, before Lukas Kyle drives the fight right out of him. We're...

If the last episode was a long fuse, this one was the payload! Lukas Kyle confirms George Wilkins ' ominous video message to Juliette Nichols : the water really "wasn't a problem". Is the A.I. what rigs the game? Paul Billings and Robert Sims have a long overdue meeting of the minds. We find symmetry between Eater , Lukas, and (who we now now is) Jimmy Conroy : a curious trio who...

How far are the residents of FROMville willing to go to get what they want? In who's best interest does it truly serve for them to try? Is newborn Smiley a daywalker , like The Man In Yellow ? Is The Boy In White a Storywalker , like Julie Matthews . RIP Jim Matthews : the key to unlocking some major mysteries paid a hefty price. 📺 Jamie Ruby https://scifivision.com 📺 Dawn Barker https://faceboo...

Though this was a great episode where many truths are revealed (thanks Lukas Kyle / Bernard Holland !) it was quite a long fuse with no subsequent ignition. Robert Sims & Camille Sims have symmetry with Kathleen Billings & Paul Billings . And, holy crap, there really are more people (with CONFUSING motivations) in Silo 17 ?! Also, never doubt Dave's insights... just sayin' 📰FULL Episode H...

Because of the double-header last week, the holidays, and our charity event, we delayed our coverage on Earth Abides so that we could cover its final episodes. We meet EA's version of Negan ; what it means to bear the weight of grave decisions; placing our expectations on a future that isn't promised; and coming to terms with the world and who you've become. Whichever way you decide to move forwar...

For better or worse, our impression of Robert Sims has drastically changed from when we first met him. We marvel at the contents of The Legacy in the same manner as Lukas Kyle . (No) Time for love, Dr. Knox : Turns out Solo & Juliette Nichols might not be alone in Silo 17 ...? 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all embedded content available here: TBD 🎬DIVE into your wallet and leave us a tip on K...

This episode is absolutely bananas, in the best way possible: Camille Sims is playing 3D Chess while the rest of Silo 18 is playing checkers. Both Bernard Holland & Robert Sims are losing their grip. And Lukas Kyle becomes Mayor Holland 's SHADOW?! NOW KISS, Shirley & Knox! 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all embedded content available here: TBD 🎬DON'T ERECT A BARRICADE between you and gene...

We experience not only a few time-jumps in this episode, but also an increase in the amount of survivors in tow. Seneca wrote, "Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end," and all of this exists in what the prophet Yishayahu / Isaiah referred to as a World Without End . Will we finally put the past to rest or will we allow it to haunt us? 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all embedded...

Things everywhere are starting to take a turn: Will the real Solo please stand up? Will Camille Sims take the fall for Robert Sims to make him Bernard Holland 's shadow? Are Knox & Shirley OK?! We're proud mamas and papas when it comes to Paul Billings providing cover for Patrick Kennedy ! 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all embedded content available here: TBD 🎬DON'T DESCENT to leaving a small...

Something's in the water because Dave 's alarmingly "animated" about this episode! Sheriff Paul Billings and Deputy Hank are the Buddy-Cop duo we need. Judge Mary Meadows reveals some deeply held secrets (to Lukas Kyle) before she goes (Hi Avi Nash ). Everyone, down to Shirley , is playing the game. Solo 's story sounds suspicious. 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all embedded content available here:...

Whereas the first episode's antagonist was (and, to a certain degree, still is) oneself, Ish & Emma go head-to-head with the natural world itself. Will nature succeed in finishing the job it started with humanity? 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all embedded content available here: TBD 🎬THE SPACE BETWEEN your wallet and tipping us on Ko-fi and/or joining a membership on either Ko-fi or Patreon...

With your help in the chat, the team tackles Earth Abides' pilot, "Alone". Our protagonist, Ish, survives a near-fatal venomous snakebite. His reward? Drifting in and out of consciousness through a world-ending global pandemic. How would *you* handle the prospect of being the last surviving human? 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all embedded content available here: TBD 🎬WE CAN'T BE ALONE in thinkin...

What an info dump! Solo finally comes out of Silo 17 's vault and helps Juliette Nichols find a way to return to Silo 18 . Judge Mary Meadows finds even more reasons to GTFO. We draw parallels between Juliette and Bernard Holland (and Meadows to Solo). We struggle to put ourselves in Shirley 's Mechanical / Rebellion shoes. 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all embedded content available here: TBD 🎬T...

What SILO does best is confronts you: are the mysteries you are determined to uncover dangerous? Feelings shift on Bernard Holland because, let's be honest, what would you have done better? Juliette Lives , at least in the hearts of those she left behind, which empties itself into a nascent, yet-to-be-determined movement. 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all embedded content available here: TBD 🎬TRU...

The path forward - along with whom we're meant to trust - becomes a whole lot clearer. Because f--- this place! We don't want to be suspicious about Elgin or The Boy In White ; that being said, we have a lot more clarity on how little we should place our trust in figments. We're all just doing our best, after all. 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all embedded content available here: TBD 🎬Save us fro...

SILO 's sophomore premiere catches us up in more ways than one! By way of another silo's downfall, we not only learn so much about their design similarities, but how much Juliette Nichols must be appreciating the fact that the one she just left is still standing: for how much longer, who knows? 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all embedded content available here: TBD 🎬TRUTH is, it only takes is a sm...

🚨 Dave sat in on scifivision 's six hour+ livestream discussion on this very episode. Check it out: https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxnB-aAAt8WuKNBAbhoTtPse4pWNIGQ8UM All we have to fear is fear, itself! Elgin drags a (maybe?) pregnant and (clearly) suffering Fatima Stevens into the back room of the very same root cellar Jade 1st sees the symbol he obsessed over for so many episodes. This directly...

Is this the final chapter in The Book Of Carol ? We spend a ton of time and tears breaking down Carol Peletier 's farewell to both Sophia Peletier and The Walking Dead version of herself. Yet again, we change our minds on whether this season finale had a satisfying enough ending, as well as a cliffhanger, which differed from our first watch. Tell us how excited you are (or may not be) about Season...

These Fragile Lives continues the trend of attempting to move several storylines across a very short period of time: which makes for a really good bite-sized watch, but doesn't leave a lot of room for analysis (the ol' "wait-n-see, DAVE!"). Will Elgin , Sara Meyers , and Victor Kavanaugh save the town or die trying? Will Fatima Stevens become one of the THEY in FROMville ? Or will Officer Acosta (...

The penultimate chapter of The Book Of Carol allowed us to go even deeper than we thought: Laurent Carriere 's lot, clarity on Carol Peletier , Daryl Dixon 's destiny, sympathy for Stéphane Codron , Losang 's lost balance, and even an amusing Ash Patel . 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all embedded content available here: TBD 🎬WE AIN'T THE WALKING DEAD: this podcast is supported by listeners like y...

Every character who appears in this episode is being tortured. Even Dave goes from absolutely believing that Fabby / Fatri / Fom (Fake Abby Stevens / Father Khatri / Bartender Tom ) were merely agents of distraction to incredibly annoying information brokers. If this place can alter reality on a whim, does anything anyone try to do to escape FROMville really work? 📰FULL Episode Highlights and all...

I LOVE splitting the room, but this episode really divided #TWDFamily! Carol Peletier finally reaching Daryl Dixon was inarguably what we all wanted: It's what/who was sacrificed to get it. But this episode matured after every watch: to the effect of turning what might've been initially perceived as one of the worst episodes of the season to - quite surprisingly - the best. 📰FULL Episode Highligh...
