296: Black Panther + Marc & Abi + Haikuing the State of TWD

A packed and varied episode this week, with my and Nico's reviews of Black Panther, plus the return of Marc and Abi of Issimo from the UK! The three of us talk about the current state of The Walking Dead, mostly via haiku, and also a rousing discussion of the historical place of violence in the formation of civilized society and how that relates to TWD. Plus, we answer questions that Scott Gimple asked the fans, like whether we think the show portrays people as basically good or bad, what nightmares the show has given us, and which characters we identify with the most, among others. All that, plus a live performance of Let's Just Wait from Issimo's upcoming album, The Adventures of Issimo! You can preorder that album now by going to pledgemusic.com/projects/issimo.
