Fans of The Walking Dead know it's so much more than a zombie show. It's an emotionally rich, character-driven series about love and loss, and found family, and the lengths we'd go through to protect the people we care about. That's what's kept us coming back all these years. (And also we like zombies.) I’m Jason Cabassi. My cohost Karen and I started podcasting about The Walking Dead back in 2010. Along the way, I’ve appeared on the show a couple of times as a walker, hosted hundreds of Q&A…

Here's another bonus episode for you guys I'm sneaking in before Dead City S3, covering the new installment in one of my favorite horror series, Evil Dead. This is reposted from the long-dormant Evil Dead 'Cast, where my cohosts Rich, Chris, and I covered all the past Evil Dead movies and shows, and which you can find at podcastica.com/podcast/evil-dead-cast-an-ash-vs-evil-dead-podcast-baby ---…
While we wait for Dead City S3, here's a repost of the Jeffrey Dean Morgan panel from Walker Stalker Con Atlanta 2016. This happened just a few days after S7E1 aired, so it was fresh in people's minds, and it was JDM's first convention appearance as Negan. One of my favorite panels ever. JDM slips in and out of character, and quickly wins the crowd over. Let's see if he'll do the same for you :)…

And I didn’t remember how much it was just Negan applying constant pressure to Rick, until he breaks. Yes, it’s hard to watch, and I don’t blame anyone who thought it was too much. And also I think for what it was, it was done so well. Lucy and I are so pleased to be joined by Ben for…
Welp, it’s time. Here’s Negan! Such a polarizing character, and y’all know I have my gripes. But I absolutely can’t deny he brought a huge shot of adrenaline to this show. He’s a character I often find incredibly fun to watch, and also, in some ways, frustratingly problematic. I’m very glad to have Alex here—cohost of our Dead City coverage and a huge Negan fan—to go over this landmark episode,…
