Episode 59 - Thank You George

Like a bad penny that you just can't get rid of, the Governor is back in season 4, episode 6 of AMC's the Walking Dead titled "Live Bait".
We start off this week's show by listening to KMO's interview with director Rob Kuhns. Mr. Kuhns' recently completed film, Birth of the Living Dead was briefly touched upon in the last episode of the show. We listen as KMO and Rob cover a wide range of zombie-related topics, focusing to a large extent on the work of George Romero.
Next we eagerly turn back to the Walking Dead as it continues its run of stellar storylines. Surprisingly, this episode focuses exclusively on the Governor and what happened to him after he massacred the people of Woodbury last season.  He appears to be a changed man, and the producers of the show seem intent on casting him as a sympathetic character. We found it strangely compelling. What did you think?

Episode 58 - They're All Messed Up

Season 4 of AMC's the Walking Dead continues and the Z-Realm is there!  Episode 5, titled "Internment" continues the overall excellence of season 4 with a harrowing and emotionally draining story of hope against all odds.  Focusing on the always incredible Scott Wilson's portrayal of ex-Farmer Hershel, we see him struggle to remain strong as everything ( literally EVERYTHING ) crumbles around him. An explosive plot with a conclusion like a punch to the gut, this was a strong one, in every regard.  Please let us know what you think of the podcast by sending email to mail@z-realm.com or by leaving a message over on the Facebook page.

Episode 57 - One Day You Just Change

Episode 57 is back with AMC's the Walking Dead for episode 4 of season 4 "Indifference".  With the crew at the prison splitting up into two "away teams", we get dual story lines for the majority of this episode. We see Rick and Carol go into a nearby subdivision to scour for necessary medical supplies where they stumble upon some purported "hippies" and have many meaningful and climactic conversations.  We also see the team that left for the veterinary hospital last week as they attempt to complete their mission on foot.  We learn a lot about "Alcohol Bob". There are several confrontations and some really clever bits of dialogue. Things continue to actually HAPPEN in season 4!

Episode 56 - You Risk Your Life

Episode 56 takes place in a happy land where AMC's The Walking Dead seems to have fully started racing forward with the 3rd episode of Season 4, titled "Isolation".  We find out a lot interesting facts about some surprising members of the cast, and we see perhaps the largest zombie horde yet in a jaw-dropping moment. There are some great moments of dialogue, some intense violence and some brave self-sacrifice. This is epic stuff and we do not tiptoe around that fact.  Stick around for the end when we reminisce about the recently departed Lou Reed.

Episode 55 - She's Messed Up Not Weak

We continue on with "Infected", the second episode of season 4 of AMC's The Walking Dead.  Things are not going well at the prison.  Opening with a devastating attack in one of the cell-blocks, slow revelations begin to show that even the slight bit of safety that our protagonists were feeling is completely unfounded.
We hear a fascinating take on the particulars of this episode and also on the larger zombie meme from "Anonymous Guest One".  We wind up with talks of other media but then Marty has to leave to replenish his Kleenex supply in preparation for next weeks episode of the show.

Episode 54 - Don't Bother Naming Them

It's back, like Carol-Anne crawling out of the TV, the Z-Realm podcast has returned to the airwaves to herald in the start of Season 4 of AMC's The Walking Dead.  We carefully go through the episode, point by point, stopping along the way to discuss porn, zombie proms, games of thrones and many other varied topics.  It has been a long long time since epsiode 53, so come back into the fold since, when the zombies come, we need to stick together; there's safety in numbers...

Episode 53 - The Zrealm vs World War Z in Brooklyn

The Z-Realm crew gathered in the Brooklyn Bunker after venturing out as our very-own shambling horde of three, to witness Brad Pitt's version of Max Brooks' epic novel World War Z.  We went in scoffing, expecting to leave the multiplex in disgust, our minds preparing our most scathing comments for their inevitable need...but did we need them?  Listen to the podcast as we all sit around the same microphone and talk about our expectations going in and our thoughts in the aftermath. We don't get to do that many Z-Realms where we are all in the same room, so we hope you enjoy this very special presentation.
