Issues with ITunes have been Fixed!

We were able to figure out the issue with downloading the podcast through iTunes on PC and they have all been hammered out flat, like the soft, rotted skull of a ghoul.  Please do not hesitate to let us know if issues develop again later.  Until that time, we hope you continue to enjoy the podcast!

Episode 52 - Keep Calm and Listen to Podcasts

Episode 52 of the Z-Realm focuses on the brilliant BBC series "In The Flesh".  This completely new take on the zombie genre takes place in a world where the zombie holocaust has run it's course, leaving thousands of animated corpses roaming the countryside.  The story focuses on the fictional, rural town of Roarton in England, the home of a grassroots force of concerned citizens who gathered to fight back the initial rising and are now adrift in a world where their contributions are no longer needed.  The central character is Kieren Walker, a "Partial Death Syndrome" sufferer who is returned to his family, with a box full of cover-up mousse and plenty of contacts to hide his eerie white eyes. The story here is about communities, families and how hard it is to do the thing that's right.  It is about friends and love and duty. It is about so much more than that, but, perhaps most importantly, it's about zombies!  After you've listened to the show, I urge you to keep calm and send us email to mail@z-realm.com or post a message on our Facebook page.

Episode 51 - You Kill or You Die

Episode 51 of the podcast is where we talk about the conclusion of the third season of AMC's the Walking Dead, titled "Welcome to the Tombs".  We lose major characters, see shocking plot twists, and bear witness to further deviation from the original source-material.  We disagree on whether this is a good or bad thing, and we'd love to hear what you thought of the way the season wrapped up. Stick around to the end to hear us talk about other things we've been enjoying and take this moment to rush out and buy a copy of the amazing "Lucifer's Hammer", do it now, while there's still time.

Episode 50 - Coming for to Carry Me Home

Episode 50 of the Z-Realm sees the crew return after a week away struggling with seasonal allergies and an inability to successfully breathe.  We come back to talk about two episodes of AMC's The Walking Dead.  We focus on chapter 14 "Prey" and chapter 15 "This Sorrowful Life". Both were strong episodes but chapter 15 was especially powerful and makes a much larger mark in the overall timeline of the show.  We speak of riveting performances from Michael Rooker and Norman Reedus in particular.  Hear us say goodbye to a major character and hear us as our anticipation for the finale of season 3 grows ever nearer.  Let us know what you thought of the show by sending email to mail@z-realm.com or by posting a message over on the Facebook page.

Episode 49 - I Brought Whiskey

Episode 49 of the Z-Realm brings us back around again to the continuing saga of Season 3 of AMC's The Walking Dead. This time we look at the 13th chapter, titled Arrow on the Doorpost.  Opening immediately with summit between Rick and the Governor, the show cranks up the tension and keeps things on edge for most of the episode, using impressive cinematography to heighten that tone. The lieutenants for each side get to mingle a bit and this provides some of the only lightness in an episode which focuses much more on subterfuge and guile.  We also talk about the now-cancelled AMC series Rubicon which has totally captivated KMO and Olga. You can also hear the wonderful song that played behind the scenes at the closing of this chapter of the show, Warm Shadow by Fink.  Please let us know what you thought of the podcast by sending an email to mail@z-realm.com or by posting a message on our Facebook page.

48 - And the Whole World Smiles With You

Episode 48 of the Z-realm Podcast jumps right back into AMC's The Walking Dead to look at the 12th chapter of Episode 3 "Clear".  We see the return of Morgan from the pilot episode of the show, who has changed a LOT since then, and not at all for the better.  The cast of characters are reduced to only 4, Rick, Michonne, Carl and the utterly gone Morgan.  This tighter focus allows for greater character development and a chance for Danai Gurira to show a softer and more human side of Michonne.  We'd love to hear your thoughts on the show, so please send an email to mail@z-realm.com or post a message over on our Facebook page.

Episode 47 - That's Who You're Dealing With

Episode 47 of the podcast returns to AMC's The Walking Dead to focus on the 11th chapter of season 3 "I Ain't A Judas".  Tensions continue to mount at the prison and at Woodbury as the two sides prepare for war. Andrea returns to her former crew at the prison with hopes of easing tensions and bridging the two groups. Fan favorite Tyreese ends up in a place that no one wants him and Rick finds out just what everyone is really thinking about him.
We wrap the show up by talking about a variety of other topics and close with a clip from the brilliant Bill Burr.  Please let us know what you thought of the show by sending email to mail@z-realm.com or by leaving a message on our Facebook page.
