Welcome back survivors to the most loyal podcast to The Walking Dead. You’ve almost made it to the end. The final episode is upon us. This show died the way it lived; it was loud, the fights were over the top, and zombie guts were spilled. Overall, it was a mostly satisfying conclusion to a roller coaster of a series. Rest in piss, The Walking Dead.
David and John adopt their new mantra: “let’s fun!” They discuss the Sicilian legend of the Testa Di Moro and the Greek myth of Daphne and Apollo before breaking down the episode scene by scene. Did Mike White successfully recreate a Monica Vitti scene? Is the show doing a good job of tackling themes of…
We’re one episode away from the end. Somehow it feels like the show is dragging its feet but in other ways it feels like it’s moving too fast for its own good. Join us on the podcast to find out what we thought about the penultimate episode of The Walking Dead!
Steve and Anthony discuss the major differences between book and show in House of the Dragon. Then Anthony previews A Clash of Kings with Katherine Olley, Jason Eberl, and J.J. Hollenback. HT Jason Eberl: Portrait of El Primo.
Kim Renfro, entertainment reporter for Insider and co-host of A Cast of Kings joins A.Ron to talk about the book reader perspective on this season of HOTD. We talk the impact of the Song of Ice and Fire prophecy on the show and how it might connect with the other GOT spinoff series, compare notes on what it’s like to be the book reader with a non-reader co-host, discuss GRRM finishing the books and debate the wisdom of rebooting the original Game of Thrones series. We wrap things up with some well marked spoiler speculation on the fate of Laenor Velaryon!
All rise for the honorable judges A.Ron and Jim. Eugene, minus the bolo tie, is on trial. The charges? Lot’s of bad stuff. But the real thing on trial today is this show. Our faith in a satisfying ending is shaken. But can the entertaining moments redeem a potentially disastrous episode?
Hot-stove HOTD is heating up! But first, let’s hand out awards with NFL analyst Fran Duffy. Then religion expert Brenden Walsh helps Anthony gear up for the new season of Electric Bookaloo.
It was a tale of two houses, one Green and the other Black. To our delight, the GOT universe made a triumphant return to the small screen. From enormous time jumps, rotating cast members, and a great expansion on lore, I think we can agree the season pulled off some impressive plays. As we eagerly await the next season, let’s dive back into the first once again.
The last episodes are upon us. We got some really great questions and some critical, but deserved, feedback. Let’s dive in! You’ve heard of Hot Girl Summer, what about Hot Zombie Summer? The flies are killer. How many spinoffs are still in the running? And are we going to see some characters in Europe?
The show is still staggering on. You saw a slick heist in Ocean’s 11, now get ready for a heist that’s nothing like that. And remember that motorcycle chase from The Great Escape? Try to forget you ever saw that cool thing before watching this episode. What is really keeping us on the edge of our seats is trying to figure out which kid is doing the voice over.
