Watching Dead: A The Ones Who Live Podcast

“Slabtown” was like a sour apple sucker jammed unwillingly down Jim and A.Ron’s throat.  While in concept Granny Smith flavored sucker isn’t entirely without appeal, the delivery left much to be desired.  In this we talk about all natural pain relief, the density of guinea pigs, gun lovers versus gun fanciers, and critique the rooftop gardens of Slabtown.  All this, a virtual flood of feedback, an...

Jim and A.Ron are less than thrilled with the fourth episode of this season of The Walking Dead, “Slabtown”.  We find ourselves in an Orwellian retelling of Animal Farm, with lots of Beth, talk of the “common good”, lollipops, guinea pigs, would-be-rapist pigs, slappy pigs, horseshit escape attempts, and just when you think the episode can’t possibly get any dumber… it goes and totally redeems its...

It’s another special release of Watching Dead.  This time, it’s a Zombie Drill episode covering Dawn of the Dead.  This was such a different show than Watching Dead!

Jim and A.Ron have a blast talking more in depth about their problems with The Walking Dead’s latest episode, 503, “Four Walls And A Roof”.  We talk about monologues, stupid plans gone awry, Kirkman’s REEEMMMIIIXXX mode, tainted meat, proper cannibal nutrition, automotive exterior lighting, and much, much more.  All this, a metric ton of feedback, and a healthy spoiler section, coming your way! *...

Jim and A.Ron are underwhelmed and a bit puzzled by this episode.  Lots of really good stuff, but a lot of head scratching and disappointment, even as both admit that things turn out mostly okay by the end.  What did you think?  Did you like it, hate it?  Tell us all about it and see how things turn out for our full coverage cast Tuesday!

In this week’s podcast, covering The Walking Dead episode 502, “Strangers”, we examine stealthy squirrel suits, submarine zombie warfare, weird Maggie/Tara vibes, the dreaded return of the fist bump, the art of the BoBBQ, and much more.  All this, tons of feedback, and some questions are asked and answered in our spoiler section tucked away safely at the end of our podcast.  See you next week! If...

Welcome to our instant take podcast for The Walking Dead episode 502, “Strangers”.  In this episode, Walkers get soggy, Rick get’s suspicious, Carol gets flighty, Daryl gets a clue, Tyrese is exposed as fraudulent, and Bob gets eaten… but not in the normal, everyday, The Walking Dead sense of the word. If you want to give us a shout out, or otherwise give us a piece of your mind, email us, check u...

Episode 501 of The Walking Dead, “No Sanctuary” got the season off to a great start.  Lots of action, lots of zombies, reasonably intelligent survivor decision making processes, the Ricktatorship being usurped by the Glennocracy before ultimately and rightfully bowing down before the Caroligarchy.  All this, tons of listener feedback right out the gate, and our spoiler spectacular safely tucked aw...

A blast from the past!  Jim and I were originally going to go live with our first TV podcast covering season one of The Walking Dead on AMC, but things happened and we screwed the pooch and we didn’t get off the ground until season four of Breaking Bad, and the rest is history. Speaking of history, this was recorded in the summer of 2010, and some of this is rough.  I think my mic was pointing the...

We’re back for Season Five of The Walking Dead!  In this preview cast, we get hyped for Bald Move’s Month of the Dead, break down the various trailers AMC has released for the upcoming season, talk about how we think things are going to go down in Terminus, and do our annual death predictions for all of the main cast. * A.Ron wrote a book!  Check out his Survival Guide for Season One of The Walkin...

In the first podcast release for our “Month of the Dead”, I sit down with Eric from The Walker Stalkers podcast to review George Romero’s 5th entry into his “of the dead” series, Diary of the Dead.  We talk about the characters, the plot, our favorite scenes / zombie kills and analyze the social commentary of the film. More information and tickets for the Walker Stalker Con can be found on their w...

Another season has wrapped up, and Jim and A.Ron are here to tie it in a bow.  We had some laughs, some groans, and some brain aneurysms along the way.  Before we sign off until October, we’ll talk about the season as a whole, where it fits into the Walking Dead season hierarchy, and consider plenty of listener feedback.  See you in a few months! As always, if you like what we do, give us a shout...

Wow!  I know it left some people cold, but for our money, The Walking Dead season four finale, “A”, was firing on almost all cylinders.  We got a taught episode with lots of tension, some truly excellent dialog and performances, and some really spectacular gore.  It wasn’t perfect, but it was as satisfying an end to this season as we were likely to get.  Topics for discussion include A/B path test...

What can I say about tonight’s episode of The Walking Dead?  It was amazing, an apex, arresting, and artful.  Gimple, Kang, and MacLaren joined forces to make tonight’s season finale, number 416 “A” a really special experience for TWD fans.  It was a joy to watch and we were both really excited to cast about it.  What did you think?  Tell us and we’ll talk about it on Tuesday! As always, if you li...

This is the cast in which we discuss the travails both real and virtual of episode 415 of The Walking Dead, entitled, “Us”.  Topics include Glenn’s temporary insanity, Tara’s enabling of same, the return of Denise Crosby to television, and is Michael Dorn far behind?, Abraham’s warrior nature, and how we learned to stop worrying and love the Duane.  And what would a Bald Move cast be with your fee...

Instant take for The Walking Dead episode 415, “Us”.  Very weird, wild, and free-wheeling episode as the guys struggle to come up with a rating for an episode that arguably featured a mullet wearing dumb fuck as the hero of the day.  Join us Tuesday for the full cast!
