The Walker Stalkers: A Podcast for Fans of The Walking Dead

WARNING - This could quite possibly be the worst podcast we've ever done.  You would be wise to lower your expectations of James and Eric on this podcast.  In fact, it's so bad, we are calling it The Beercast.  We take no responsibility for the actions and comments of James and Eric and we blame it on the beer they had.  The good news is, it can only get better.  And, it will.

Despite this, James and Eric cover updates of what's been happening in the world of The Walking Dead TV Show since filming resumed in May.  They review some of their favorite moments from the podcast from season 3.  They attempt to call some listeners.  And, they give you a sneak peak of a new convention they're planning called Walker Stalker Con - November 1-3, 2013 with many special guests from all Zombie and Horror genres.

Forgive us for this less-than-stellar podcast.  Everyone has a bad show every now and again.  We are sorry...so very sorry.  But, we hope you get something out of this one.

In this podcast, we interview Melissa Ponzio who plays 'Karen' on The Walking Dead TV show.  Melissa was recently named a recurring guest for Season 4 so we will be seeing more of Karen next season.  The character 'Karen' is somewhat of a mystery, so James and Eric speculate together with Melissa what Karen's role might be in the new season.  Hear what Norman Reedus said to Melissa the first time he met her.  Melissa shares some behind-the-scenes stories and scenes that were shot you may not have heard about yet.  Which singer does she think would make the best zombie?  We get to know Melissa Ponzio much better in this interview and we learn a more about 'Karen' too.

In this 20th episode of The Walker Stalkers, James and Eric interview actress Laurie Holden who plays Andrea on The Walking Dead.  We call some of her biggest fans from the United Kingdom for this special interview.  You will be as happy for them as we were that they got to talk to her!  Laurie shares whether Andrea is going to wise up or not on this next episode.  James goes ga-ga for Laurie and Eric has to pour some cold water over him.  And Laurie shares who she calls her "soul-mate" on the show.

Also, to clarify things - it's "Fit" not "Thick" but it made for a great laugh!

In this 19th episode of The Walker Stalkers, James and Eric interview actor Norman Reedus who plays the hugely popular Daryl Dixon on The Walking Dead.  Prior to the interview, we held a contest among our fans to see who gets the chance to talk to Norman.  Our website blew up with the response.  We call the top 3 contest winners live for their chance to ask Norman a question.  Norman talks about his son, his favorite music, his favorite zombie kills, dirty looks, Daryl's relationship with Carol and noodling (a very southern term) among many other things.  Ladies, this one's for you!
