SQUAWKING DEAD

We stroll further down the (Greek) "River of Sorrows" as we highlight what true cowardice looks like and what it might take for larger communities to survive. There's a tremendous amount of both contrasting events and philosophies and we're getting pretty nervous about what might happen should they collide. And, either way, things are looking fairly grim (and, for #MaggieRhee, seems like it's been nothing but dark for so long).

WE CUT OUT SO MUCH from this episode! It ranges from yelling at one another, haphazardly, to facts and details that just weren't captivating enough to make the finally cut (but we're undoubtedly sure you more hardcore fans will appreciate).

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER! Well, who can blame us?! We just interviewed Mo Collins, as well as released a brand new segment titled, #TWDFamily Branches, featuring our phenomenal cousins on the #TWDFamily tree. The final Season Premiere of #TWD starts off a lot like #TWDSeason9 (a heist!). What becomes increasingly clear is how much we've all experienced on #WalkingDead is going to end up playing into these 24 episodes. Meanwhile, enjoy the small breaks for humor and sweet callbacks to seasons past amidst what is increasingly turning out to be a fairly dark season. If we're going down, we're going down, together.

Though this episode is coming out fairly late, the Unedited Episode Recording was released far ahead of time, last week!

Welcome to a NEW segment we're hoping to do a lot more of. It's a terrific opportunity to chat with the cast & crew of our favorite #TWDUniverse shows, but it's a whole other thing to shift the the spotlight over to our friends and fellow creators. Linda's ascension to creator notoriety seemed fairly recent, as you'll hear in a moment: the appearance of #Negan / #JeffreyDeanMorgan on #TheWalkingDead her catalyst/muse. You can find her artwork in many a #giveaway, but consider supporting her work (and commissioning her to do more work with colored pencils)!

Little did we know it, going into this, how much relevance this discussion would have when it finally came to the upcoming season of TWD (#TWDSeason11), especially in relation to the tension/conflict between #Negan & #MaggieRhee / #MaggieGreene. Having the former's brutality seared (again) into our subconscious (while acknowledging our acceptance of him, be it begrudging or open) and also revisiting the latter's relevance in prep of her actual return. This discussion semi-neatly dovetailed into the Origins recaps of our four main characters: #DarylDixon, Maggie, Negan, and #CarolPeletier. Although it's mostly cons, when it comes to Origins, much like Negan, himself, there are some redeeming moments that make it a worthwhile watch, especially as a refresher after a 10 season run (with some gaps for breaks in #TWDSeason10).

This was a HEAVILY edited episode with a nice amount of behind the scenes divulging prior to starting the actual episode.

We wind back a couple of episode numbers to Episode 139 (Episodes 140 & 141 are dedicated to our interviews with Jenna Elfman & Bobbie Grace, respectively), where we finally recorded our thoughts on #FearTWD's Season 6 Finale. This is a particularly short episode, mostly due to the fact that this episode wrap things up pretty neatly in bow, but there were some thoughts we cleaned up and some ideas that we wanted to work through as a result of watching this several times before a month and a half and a couple times after.

The Unedited Episode Recording is available and contains a juicy pre-show, with some lovely #BehindTheScenes tidbits, as well as COUNTLESS cancelable utterances in-between!

We had a very pleasant chat with Bobbie Grace, AKA Ranger Samuels from Fear The Walking Dead. Our conversation with her reminded me a lot of our conversation with Peggy Schott, especially when it came to describing the feeling of belonging to a large ensemble versus a short film. And, is it any coincidence that they are both gingers? 👀

The Unedited Interview Recording is... hilarious. But more than anything else, really slows down the conversation and exposes moments of levity in between the edits. You can enjoy it here: https://ko-fi.com/post/DOWNLOAD-NOW-Unedited-Interview-w-Bobbie-Grace-R6R85E7AP

Something that probably should've happened a long time ago has finally arrived: our sit-down Jenna Elfman. We mainly discuss her process, which takes us on a journey through her acting life. As she guides us through the twists and turns throughout her career, while answering some fun(ny) questions along the way, we actually walk away with some fairly essential life lessons and go much deeper into her past than I ever thought we would. We're grateful that she was able to give us so much of herself and hope to do this again, soon!

Since our interview was recorded so recently after FearTWD S6, while FearTWD S7 was filming, we decided not to make the complete, unedited interview recordings available; however, we *will* be uploading the test recording (we wanted to see how viable Riverside.fm would be as a recording solution, prior to our recording date).

This episode really exhibits both the distinctions and the dark mirror parallels many of our characters have with one another, which has sincerely allowed us to take their totality into account. Should our characters be simpler? Should our heroes be super and our villains lean in? Tell us what you think!

The unedited episode is a RIOT: between the spicy pre-show, the massive amounts of expounded upon facts that were edited out during the recording, as well as the short but sweet post show, why not download a copy while supporting the podcast you know and love?

It feels like we've been watching this season forever: as hard has it is to believe, we're nearing the end (which takes us back to the very beginning). We may have overanalyzed Dakota's motivations a little too much this episode, but it's allowed us to uncover some fascinating parallels in the process.

Introducing #JohnDorieSr: an almost #WhatIf version of #JohnDorie, had he been allowed to survive this rough world. What's terrific about this episode is that it provides tons of closure for everyone involved, which is super-duper rare in #TWDUniverse; I feel like we've been saying that a lot lately (that #FTWD, yet again, offers us something that we've never experienced).

Note: We're no longer including the Reaction Videos in the beginning of the episode, but we do reference it in discussion (so be sure to catch it beforehand)!

We literally cut out 20 whole minutes in the middle of this episode because it was too contentious and didn't get us anywhere. We're really curious about your thoughts, though, because the conversation revolved around whether June could ever find love in someone else, again.
