316 – “Welcome to the Tombs” – The Watching Dead
It’s finally here. The moment we’ve all been waiting for. And it stinks! Like a fresh walker on a hot summer day, it stinks! We try to find the words to justify the backlash that this episode has unanimously, and deservedly, received across the internet.
-
315 – “This Sorrowful Life” – The Watching Dead
The penultimate episode of Walking Dead’s third season is surprisingly not the war that we, and the survivors, have been prepping for. But that doesn’t mean it’s not what we wanted… Meaningful characterizations and some great acting make this another strong episode on the back half of season 3. But that doesn’t mean it’s perfect [...]

314 – “Prey” – The Watching Dead
Hey guys, Jim was under the weather this week, so we resorted once again to a remote cast. This one went much better than last, but we still have a ways to go. Bear with us this week and we’ll be back to in-studio next week. This week, we discuss “Prey”, episode 314 of The [...]
-
313 – “Arrow on the Doorpost” – The Watching Dead
A.Ron and Jim were… inspired by the events of this episode to do another tribute skit, our most elaborate yet. If you’re a fan of those, then you’re in for a treat, if not, I suggest skipping about five minutes ahead. Lots of questions raised in this episode, with not many answers. We also have [...]
-
312 – “Clear” – The Watching Dead
This was a pretty good episode of The Walking Dead; unfortunately I don’t think our cast quite matches up this week. First off, some rush hour weather kept Jim and A.Ron from getting together to cast, and we had to hastily assemble a remote recorded cast. We also had some great skit ideas that we [...]
-
311 – “I Ain’t No Judas” – The Watching Dead
This podcast is about romance this week. That special time when the moonlight shines just so, playing off your lover’s shapely ass as she makes her way across the darkened bedroom, by your side… AND THEN PRESSES A KNIFE AGAINST YOUR THROAT!! And then goes back to sleep? Okay, it’s less romantic and more confusing [...]
-
310 – “Home” – The Watching Dead
In this week’s action packed recap, Jim and A.Ron discuss the merits of batshit crazy Rick, the Ricktatorship’s looming threat of Glennsurrection, the merit’s of the Governor’s tactical battle plan, Daryl’s epic zombie kill by way of Subaru, and the complexities of Glenn and Maggie’s post-abduction relationship. All this and plenty of your feedback, too! [...]
-
309 – “The Suicide King” – The Watching Dead
The Walking Dead is back, with the mid-season premier episode “The Suicide King”, and so are we! Jim and A.Ron discuss A.Ron’s man crush on Chad Coleman, a ludicrous Rick/Beth/Carl “love triangle”, dead eyed Carl Jr., the Rick/Daryl bromance breakup (temporary, we’re sure), and Andrea’s toe dip into the world of fucked up post-apocalyptic politics. [...]

The Walking Dead Mid-Season 3 Wrap Up – Watching Dead
Hey everybody! It’s been a break neck, take no prisoners, pedal to the metal, Lori-killing kind of season so far. Can The Walking Dead keep it up in season 3.5? Who will live, who will die? Where does Team Prison and Team Woodbury go next? Listen to Jim, A.Ron, and a few dozen fellow TWD [...]
-
308 – “Made to Suffer” – The Watching Dead
Mid-season finale time! Fish tanks were broken, survivors were rescued, flashbangs were thrown, and eyes were gouged out. Join us for about an hour forty five of episode discussion, feeback, spoiler analysis, a opening Jim and A.Ron skit on the nature of sacrifice in a post zombie apocalypse world, and BONUS! We’re recording a special [...]
-
307 – “When the Dead Come Knocking” – The Watching Dead
The Walking Dead hits a home run this week with the very solid episode 307, “When the Dead Come Knocking”. About the only turd in the punch this week was the lunatic in the cabin, and who’s to say the turd didn’t add a touch of savory piquancy that elevated the episode as a whole? [...]
-
306 – “Hounded” – The Walking Dead
I’m sick this week so the update’s are going to be a little barebones. But we soldiered on through the podcast. Jim and I were kind of down on this episode, which we felt had a high silly shit to awesome ratio. Some of the stand out great scenes were, anything with Rick and a [...]
-
305 – “Say The Word” – The Watching Dead
This episode is CRAZY! Literally crazy. Like, Rick and the Governor try to out crazy each other in the Crazy Olympics, and Rick wins by a phone call. Join us as we discuss this and zombie stuffing, Carol’s sham grave, Daryl’s hard core panty dropping abilities, Michonne revealing her softer side (well, she did smile), [...]
-
304 – “The Killer Within” – The Watching Dead
It’s fiesta time! I hope you got your salsa, your chips, your margaritas, your Dos Equis and whatever the hell else you need to celebrate the death of Lori Grimes, because The Walking Dead did it’s level best to make sure we’d have a hard time enjoying it. But what the hell, right? In for [...]
-
303 – “Walk With Me” – Watching Dead
This week’s episode of AMC’s The Walking Dead finally introduced us to the long awaited character of the Governor, capably played by distinguished actor Liam Neeson. An interesting choice to let him roll with his Scottish brogue, but you know what? I think it works. Other points of interest include Michonne’s epic, episode long stink [...]
-
212 – “Better Angels” – Watching Dead
A.Ron’s on vacation, so that means a no frills, all cast update. This week we discuss the penultimate season 2 episode, “Better Angels”. Fan reaction was very mixed, and frankly, we’ve seen better TWD, but the plot’s going where it needs to go, and that’s not a bad thing. Tune in for our thoughts and [...]
-
211 – “Judge, Jury, Executioner” – Watching Dead
The one thing you can’t say about this week’s episode 211, “Judge, Jury, Executioner” is that nothing happens. Camp Herschel is rocked, and Jim and A.Ron are liking how things are going down on the farm as we enter the home stretch of season 2.5 of The Walking Dead. We discuss Daryl’s Sayid homage,proper [...]
-
210 – “18 Miles Out” – Watching Dead
Jim and A.Ron are conflicted this episode. There are parts of our favorite AMC zombie-based dramedy that are brilliant, and parts that almost gave us brain aneurysms. Find out which are which as we discuss zombie waterfalls, Andrea Kavorkian, Rick being silent but deadly, Lori extolling the benefits of being pregnant and in the kitchen, [...]
-
209 – “Triggerfinger” – Watching Dead
In this peach of an episode, A.Ron and Jim discuss some insights from Glen Mazzara’s recent interview with Vulture, the politics of Rachero del Herschel, the relative upper body strength of Mrs. Grimes, the unluckiest jumper in the world, the newly found artfulness of The Walking Dead, the effectiveness of Andrea as Shane’s ambassador, and [...]
-
208 – “Nebraska” – Watching Dead
Watching Dead is back! Jim and A.Ron have tons to discuss with the return of our favorite zombie themed drama, The Walking Dead, from it’s mid-season hiatus. Find out what we think about small-farm politics, Philly fans, zombie bonfires, who’s jockeying for position of “Most Useless” survivor, and lots more. IMPORTANT: We dish some MASSIVE [...]
-

It’s time for another catch up recap, this time for The Walking Dead season 1 episode 5, “Wildfire”. Spoiler alert: Jim dies. No, not that Jim. The other one. Anyway, join us as we discuss dubious grieving strategies, zombie premonitions, corpse mis-identification, the importance of watching the boat, and another installment of Dale’s weekly segment [...]
-
104 – “Vatos” – Watching Dead
Jim and A.Ron are back with more Walking Dead catch up, this time episode four of season one, “Vatos”.

Jim and A.Ron with more Walking Dead catch up, this time episode three of season one, “Tell It To The Frogs”.

-
102 – “Guts” – Watching Dead
Jim and A.Ron with more Walking Dead catch up, this time episode two of season one, “Guts”. We review tank escapes, the effectiveness of zombie climbers, how foley artists get to have all the fun, gore as comedy, why it’s a bad idea to parade your juicy, living, ass in front of a horde of [...]
-
101 – “Days Gone Bye” – Watching Dead
Jim and A.Ron are back to cover season 1 of The Walking Dead starting with, of course, the series premiere – “Days Gone Bye”. We hit all the highs including the most vulnerable of garments, dehydration and british biking lessons. As always, if you like what we do, give us a shout out! You can [...]
-
Watching Dead Mid-Season Wrap Up – Watching Dead
Jim and A.Ron ponder a few questions looking backward to this past half season and looking forward to the next. Where do the survivors go next? Which was better so far, season one or season two? Can they make the zombies scarier? Then we process some listener feedback and talk comic spoilers in the spoiler [...]
-
207 – “Pretty Much Dead Already” – Watching Dead
Turns out that the midseason finale went out with a bang. Several dozen, actually! Before we get into the recap, we consider an article from The Atlantic on five ways The Walking Dead can be improved. It’s pretty good, even if you think The Walking Dead is just fine as is. Then we break down [...]
-
206 – “Secrets” – Watching Dead
Welcome to this week’s episode of WatchingDead! Some say this was the best episode of the season, and some say one of the worst. What do Jim and A.Ron think? It might surprise you. We talk about chicken legs, advanced shooting classes, farmer’s ultimatums, the ridiculous, irresponsible way the “morning after” pills were depicted on [...]
-
205 – “Chupacabra” – Watching Dead
Welcome to this week’s episode of Watching Darryl Dead! The show picks itself off, and dusts itself off after falling into a well last week, only to derail the otherwise decent episode with an ill advised headshot! Rage along with Jim and A.Ron as we vent along with the listeners about the near tragic stupidity [...]
-
204 – “Cherokee Rose” – Watching Dead
Hey everybody! We had a nice run of two good episodes, so it was about time for a stinker. Not historically bad, by TWD standards, but about as putrid as the zombie in that well. I’m traveling this week, but was able to join the cast through the miracles of modern communication, as Jim and [...]
-
203 – “Save The Last One” – Watching Dead
First off, apologies for the substandard audio quality. We messed up our audio checks and ended up recording on the mac’s internal mic and not our soundboard. It’s still listenable, but we’ll try to do better going forward. This week, we talk about backlash backlashes, how scary The Walking Dead really is, Shane’s face-heel turn, [...]
-
202 – “Bloodletting” – The Watching Dead
If you hated our negativity on the first cast but stuck with us, good news! We liked the second episode much, much better. I’d say that is because objectively this episode was much, much better, but hey, that’s me. We could really use your support oniTunes! If you like what we’re doing, please give us [...]
-
201 – “What Lies Ahead” – The Watching Dead
Welcome to the first episode of The Watching Dead, the officially unofficial fan podcast of AMC’s The Walking Dead. I’ll be up front, if you’re a big fan of the show, buckle up, because we’re fairly critical of what we feel is a very uneven episode. There is a lot to like, but a lot [...]
