Fear the Walking Dead ‘Cast

It’s the end of the first, what, trimester of the final season of TWD, with a bunch of unresolved stories and cliffhangers to keep us wondering what will happen next. But hey, at least Pope is dead! Plus, we thought some of the revelations about what exactly CRM is doing over on World Beyond were pretty intriguing.

This week we return to the world of The World Beyond, such as it is, and a story-packed ep of TWD with some very Game-of-Thrones-esque wheeling and dealing in the Commonwealth that we were particularly intrigued by (and a Walking Dead version of Joffrey to boot).

It was a thrill to talk with Paola Lázaro about playing our favorite new Walking Dead character, Princess! She was even cooler than we thought she’d be (and we thought she’d be really cool). We covered a lot, including: What she loves about playing Princess. How she approached the character when she started. How she’s similar to Princess. What it was like to film her season 10C episode. Her thoughts on Andrew Lincoln. How she got Josh McDermitt to break character during a scene. How she feels about the fans. How she handles criticism. How she handles having ADHD. Her thoughts on Mercer and the actor who plays him, Michael James Shaw. Which WD character she would most like to play a scene with or write a scene for. What it’s like to come into the show near the end.. Whether she thinks the ZA has benefitted Princess. Whether she has improvised any of Princess’ lines. How well she thinks Princess would get along with Michonne. Whether she’s talked with Robert Kirkman. And more. Enjoy! Support: patreon.com/jas

Great episode this week. Quite the contrast among the storylines, with Eugene eating ice cream over in the pleasant (yet slightly creepy) Commonwealth while Aaron tortures a man with a zombie in the decimated remains of Hilltop. We’re joined this week by artist Kirk Manley, who’s getting ready to release a new round of his famous Walking Dead tribute posters, featuring favorites from TWD S10 and 11. The plan is to release two posters a day, six total, on Fri, Sat, and Sun, Sep 24-26 at studiokm.com. CONTEST: You can win ALL SIX of Kirk’s TWD tribute posters by doing the following: • Anytime between Fri Sep 24 and Sun Sep 26, publish a tweet mentioning the contest, and include both the URL studiokm.com and #twdtributeartweekend. • Be sure to tweet it out during that weekend, and include both the website URL and the hashtag, and you’ll have a chance to win. Good luck!  Support: patreon.com/jasoncabassi or buymeacoffee.com/cabassi for a one-time donation (thank you!) Contact: (650) 485-3323 or brains@podca

Nothing like a little violent religious extremism to brighten up your day, right? Well, this wasn’t our favorite episode, but it did have its moments, and Lucy and I had a fun time talking about the show, as always. Hope you enjoy. PS I can’t believe I forgot to mention what a great episode of “What If…?” It was this week. Zombie superheroes!!! Even if you don’t usually watch that show, you might get a kick out of this one.

Some thrills and chills in this episode for sure, as Maggie’s group gets winnowed to basically just her and Negan. Nice couple, those two.

This ep reminded me of times early on in The Walking Dead when characters would make perplexingly frustrating moral choices. Ah, nostalgia. Aside from that, some amazing zombie action, and perhaps some of Eugene’s best scenes ever, and a lot more.

It’s the first episode of the FINAL SEASON OF THE WALKING DEAD!!! That’s heavy man. At least it was a great one, in our opinion, with thrills, laughs, and classic Walking Dead moral dilemmas. Awesome way to start off the final leg of this show, and we’re glad you guys are with us to see this thing out :) Support: patreon.com/jasoncabassi or buymeacoffee.com/cabassi for a one-time donation (thank you!)

Amazing episode this week, showing Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s range portraying all the aspects of the complex character of Negan (and because it’s Negan, there’s a lot to talk about). And it was wonderful to see Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s real-life wife Hilarie Burton-Morgan kicking so much ass playing Negan’s wife Lucille.

Depending on your point of view, this episode was either boring AF or charming and delightful — actually, it was one of our favorites of these additional episodes so far.

This week’s episode, exploring Princess’ character, was one of those ones I wasn’t sure about at first, but liked more and more the more I thought about it. It was moving, intriguing, and tense at times, and also it was not without its flaws.

Intense, bleak, and also strangely charming episode this week. Maybe the best of these additional S10 episodes yet. Lucy and I and our special guest, longtime listener Alysha Stout, have a lot to say about it. And as always, thanks for all your great feedback!

Very notable show within the history of The Walking Dead this week, what with Daryl finding a little romance in the zombie apocalypse. Of course, opinions on this story varied, among you guys and between the two of us, and there was a lot to talk about. Hope you enjoy.

We are so glad to be back podcasting on The Walking Dead after a long absence of the show (save for that one in October). As Lucy says, how can a show about zombies and the apocalypse feel like a warm hug? We found a lot to like about this particular episode, and of course some nitpicks (this is a podcast, after all).

Fight Club, the 1999 cult classic is an iconic, controversial movie, crackling with energy and creativity, violent, funny, and consistently surprising. It’s been one of my favorites since I first saw it in the theater, and it was so interesting to revisit it, see whether it held up, and find out whether my views about it have changed. I’m joined by my good friend Eric Flint, who I’ve known since the two of us ran projectors in a movie theater 10 years before Fight Club ever came out (I promise we never spliced porno frames into kids’ movies).  Support: patreon.com/jasoncabassi or buymeacoffee.com/cabassi for a one-time donation (thank you!)

Finally, it’s the season 10 finale-not-a-finale! Now we know why there was so much production work needed: zombie lemmings. We thought this was quite the conclusion to an awesome season, unexpected in a lot of ways, and pretty great.

The original game The Last of Us was an incredible experience: thrilling, beautiful, moving, violent, engaging, and memorable, enough so that it’s not only one of my very favorite games, but also one of my all-time favorite stories, of any kind. Now, almost exactly seven years later, I’m joined again by Erik (aka Mr. Blahg) to talk through the newly released and long-awaited sequel, The Last of Us Part II. How do we think it compares? You’ll have to listen to find out :) By the way, we have a like 30-minute non-spoilery segment, and like a 45-minute super-spoilery-AF segment, in case you haven't finished yet and don't want to know what happens. Our 10th anniversary is coming up and we’d love to hear from you guys to help us celebrate. Send a voice message to us at brains@podcastic.com and we’ll play it during the episode.
