Ever wondered how a father's instincts could make or break survival in a zombie apocalypse? Join us on "Will You Survive? The Podcast," as we unpack the intense journey of Andy, Kay, and their baby daughter Rosie in the film "Cargo," now streaming on Netflix. Our hosts Alex, Eric, and TJ (aka Ants in my Eyes Johnson) scrutinize Andy's life-and-death decisions, from his initial boat strategy to his shattering honesty with Kay. We spotlight the critical role of communication and trust, emphasizing how small lapses can snowball into catastrophic events.

Fatherhood can be a double-edged sword in a post-apocalyptic world, and our discussion zooms in on how Andy's paternal instincts shape his choices. We dissect high-stress moments, including a harrowing car crash involving his zombified wife, to evaluate his strategies for safeguarding Rosie. The episode also delves into the complexity of Andy's interactions with other survivors, where desperation and trust collide in surprising ways. We ponder how different his decisions might have been if he were navigating the apocalypse alone.

Survival isn't just about staying alive; it's about maintaining your humanity. We explore the ethical dilemmas and resourceful tactics depicted in "Cargo," such as using intestines to lure zombies and masking human scent with ash. Our conversation contrasts the approaches of different survivor groups, adding layers of depth to Andy's narrative. Don't miss our light-hearted tiebreaker question that wraps up the episode, offering a fun resolution to our spirited debates. Tune in for a riveting discussion that challenges conventional wisdom on survival and ethics in an unforgiving world.
