Aug 06, 2024•2 hr 50 min•Transcript available on Metacast This episode Lil’ Ass-Kicker gets named, and a bunch of other stuff happens.

Jul 23, 2024•1 hr 25 min•Transcript available on Metacast While Lucy and Jason are on vacay, in a very special episode of The 'Cast of Us the characters from Welcome to the Apocalypse (Podcastica's improv show) have taken over! They've gotten their hands on the first episode of the Walking Dead and are seeing how it compares to their experience in the apocalypse, what lessons they can take from the show, and and who's hospital gown was more revealing.

Jul 16, 2024•1 hr 9 min•Transcript available on Metacast It’s the Governor! Both Lucy and I were surprised at how enjoyable it was to revisit this character. And we had fun trying to imagine whether we’d have been more like Andrea in this situation (intrigued and impressed with the Governor and Woodbury) or like Michonne (suspicious as f#$k).

Jul 02, 2024•2 hr 41 min•Transcript available on Metacast It’s a favorite episode, especially remembered for that badass no-dialog opening where they’re killing zeds like a well-oiled team. But we noticed a lot of different ways this episode starts to feel more like what The Walking Dead became at its peak, tonally, with characterizations, and in other little ways. It’s a great one.

Jun 25, 2024•2 hr 56 min•Transcript available on Metacast And we come to the end of season 2…. and Hershel’s farm… and Rick’s sanity? And of course this is such a special episode, in part because it’s a fantastic season finale, but most of all for me (Jason) because I got to be a zed in it! And Lucy and I are SO pleased to be joined by Gracie Lou of Under the Comic Covers, who helped me get on the show and who was right there with me over four thrilling nights of filming. So join us as we talk through this season 2 finale and reminisce about our experi...

Jun 11, 2024•2 hr 17 min•Transcript available on Metacast Jason and guest cohosts Randy and Sam all hold Mad Max: Fury Road as one of the best action movies ever (it’s Jason’s all-time favorite). So we were all excited for the sequel, Furiosa. Did it live up to Fury Road? No, but it was thrilling, funny, artful, imaginative, brutal, thought-provoking, well-acted, visually stunning, and yes, had some problems too.

May 14, 2024•1 hr 28 min•Transcript available on Metacast Back to the rewatch! This is the first ep with Glen Mazzara as showrunner, and I remember being worried whether the show would still be good after Darabont left, and then being relieved that it was great.

May 07, 2024•2 hr 33 min•Transcript available on Metacast This ep we’re covering the new Alex Garland dystopian action movie, Civil War, in theaters now. On one hand this movie is right up this podcast’s alley: it feels post-apocalyptic and it’s a harrowing, thought-provoking story with great characters, thrilling sequences, and a lot of heart. On the other hand, it hits so close to home in the most disturbing way, and it provokes political discussion that might not be everyone’s cup of tea. We usually avoid talking politics on the podcast. I like that...
