Squawking Dead

All good things must come to a close; but as one door shuts, several more have opened: between the return of #RickGrimes & #Michonne, the journey of #DarylDixon, and #Negan & #MaggieRhee's spin-off to NYC via #TWDDeadCity, there's much, much more to cover in the expanded #TWDUniverse. But, for now, we're going to #Livestream our thoughts & feelings about this particular episode. Considering the unedited episode recording is a publicly #LIVE Streamed episode, consider at least following either our Patreon & Ko-fi accounts so you don't miss out on future recordings: they're FREE to join and the only place we post our recording schedules - we don't make them publicly available on Social Media. Should you decide to lend us your support, consider joining either the WHISPERERS or SURVIVORS tiers to receive perks and opportunities, like the members in this very livestream!

Major swings occurred throughout this episode that have adequately prepared us for the undoubted craziness that's to come in #TWD's #SeriesFinale! Will #JudithGrimes live? Is #Negan redeemed? And where's #JerryTWD?!

#FatherGabriel's words from the last episode carry through into this one, "People remember the last thing you do. The end of each story is very important. How do you want yours to end?". We get very close to what #Negan's redemption might look like. We learn that it takes ONE person to change the world... sometimes two... or three. But it starts with ONE. Just one.

It's not a rare thing for us to break down a scene and feel completely different things about it; however, it's seldom that we find ourselves disagreeing on almost every scene! I think that's what makes this episode so special: the audience has the potential to walk away feeling heard by one of us and, worst case scenario, knows their thoughts will be welcome in the comments and in #podcast ratings.

There is a certain amount of uneasiness as we say farewell to both #LanceHornsby and even walker #SebastianMilton. This is very apparently offset by the fireworks between #YumikoOkumura & #PamelaMilton, throughout this episode. Are some of our criticisms based in our present day concerns towards #TWD's impending close? Is it our biases (e.g., what we want to have happened versus what is happening)? Let us know while rating us (make sure to mention your social media handle so we can shout you out)! Shout out to Ben from Just Keep Walking Podcast!

It seems like our group is finally evolving to their final Pokémon form by #EugenePorter doing the right thing for the right reason (to save #MaxxineMercer from the fate he would've otherwise been spared had he left #TheCommonwealth), #TWDPrincess fighting for better than the best of a bad situation, and #MichaelMercer's soul nearly succumbing to the fate of most in his station - having the rules not apply to them.

Originally Recorded: 2022/10/06 We packed a LOT of goodness in a little over two hours! First, we smuggled-in THE LAST WORD FROM Teo Rapp-Olsson (saying bye-bye Lil' #SebastianMilton) in the beginning. Second, we do our absolute best to breakdown the first two episodes of #TheWalkingDead's 3rd trimester of Season 11. We are clearly happy to be back to breaking down episodes of The #WalkingDead, but feeling its finality hastily approaching.

We're jumped on-stream, live, to WATCH/REACT to the panel and aggregate the news coming out of #NewYorkComicCon, as it pertains to #TheWalkingDead, #TWDDeadCity, the #DarylDixon spin-off and beyond! Did #TWDFamily eat as well as it did when we covered #SDCC? Maybe not, but it was still pretty exciting to react with fans and get to talk about our feelings!

Originally Recorded: 2022/09/17 #TalesOfTheWalkingDead's #SeasonFinale contains elements/running themes from all its prior episodes to deliver one of it's more "mystical" episodes … that may not be as mystical as it seems! We're particularly proud of the brain nuggets we produced during our conversation and the opportunities this episode provided us to talk about how we see this series, on the whole.

Originally Recorded: 2022/09/08 In #TalesOfTheWalkingDead's own way, they've managed to invert the axioms we've learned over the years, watching #TheWalkingDead: the rejection of "Found Family" and the concept of "Mercy", primarily. Still, "Davon" manages to entertain us by providing excellent character-building/world-building, while capturing the essence of what makes legendary anthology series, like #TheTwilightZone and #Creepshow, so successful The unedited episode recording is full of cut down factoids, gags that went short, and we even cut out some... political banter, in some spots. You really never know what you are going to get, but you definitely know when you will get it - earlier than everyone else!

Originally Recorded 2022/09/01 It's telling that this episode premiere's just after the #TalesOfTheWalkingDead's Alpha origin story episode: instead of Doc Everett honoring his (more than just?) friend by wearing his face as a #Whisperers mask, he memorializes him by studying him. He does the same to Amy in similar fashion. "People are chaos" and we all have our own, personal ways of surviving and that's never been more apparent than in this episode, which further expands our vista in the ever-growing #TWDUniverse! The Unedited recording of this episode clocks in at well over two hours: we always have more to say but never enough time to say it (or too much class to allow certain jokes to remain in the final edit)!

Originally Recorded 2022/08/28 Say what you will about Alpha on #TheWalkingDead television series: it takes a hell of a lot of talent to flesh out a character from the comic book (with very little to go on) far more than even #RobertKirkman could've ever imagined! This episode provided us far more information on Alpha's motivations for becoming who she really is, regardless of how twisted they become, down the road. Join in on he fun!

Originally Recorded 2022/09/22 Sometimes, when I create these descriptions, I experience a little deja vu (have I written this already?). All of us are aware that #TalesOfTheWalkingDead is an opportunity to break out of the box of what people think is #TWDUniverse. With mixed fan perception, we (along with Diana from Screens in Focus) attempt to highlight what makes this episode so good. Sometimes, even when I create these descriptions, I feel like I'm saying the same thing over and over, again, so it's great to see the mundaneness of what we do in our waking life reflected back at us by way of #TWDU. And here we are again with some technical difficulties, which I think we've since solved with our latter recordings (available for streaming, for all supporters). Please don't miss out on the wackadoo things we say that we can't possibly publish, or the inane things that go on behind the scenes! And let's not forget to mention that attending a recording session is absolutely free, but you have to make sure to cr

Originally Recorded: 2022/05/28 Anthony Collins enthusiastically sat down with Dave & Bridget to discuss the viewing party to end all viewing parties: a free event he is throwing for ALL #TWDFamily who can make it down to Covington, GA on November 20th to watch #TheWalkingDead's #SeriesFinale. You can find out more about this momentous event, here: https://Linktr.ee/ThatsMyViewingParty This interview wasn't marred by many technical difficulties, though they definitely seemed annoying at the time! We made the uncut version of this interview available in our unedited reel of all of our footage from The Camp's Memorial Day Weekend event (2022) for you to digest and I HIGHLY recommend you take a look. We go into some extended conversation about both The #WalkingDead and #BetterCallSaul that we had to cut for time, but wanted to make available to those who were interested.
