Episode 124 - Head in a Bag
AMC's Fear the Walking Dead has reached the mid-season hiatus and it continues it's current trend of awesomeness and we get in to some of the nitty and gritty on the various characters and situations. We are still happy with the show, and are hopeful it continues this way when it returns. We also...

Episode 123 - Fearful Excellence
Holy crow! Both the writing on Fear the Walking Dead and the audio quality of the Z-Realm Podcast are rockin'! KMO and Marty typically record via Skype, but KMO is in Greensboro for the summer, and he has brought the kit that he uses to record face to face interviews for the C-Realm Podcast. So…

And lo, as it was prophesied, in the time before the dead began to roam the earth...the Z-Realm is back after a two month hiatus to catch up with the latest episodes of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead. After ending on an upswing, the third season of the 2nd-Tier zombie show continues its winning ways...

Episode 121 - 7 the Hard Way
Season 7 of AMC's The Walking Dead has concluded, and we thought it concluded the same way that a balloon with a small leak does...it just gradually emptied and then lay there, flaccid on the floor. We don't have much love for the way the season ended, but we were generally impressed with the…

Episode 120 - Choke Me Here
The Z-Realm is back to take a look at episodes 12 and 13 from season 7 of AMC's The Walking Dead. Spoiler alert!!! We didn't like them very much. We agree that there is 100% too many CGI deer in the show, but that is just one of our issues. We go into it in great detail and then wander for a long...

Episode 119 - Begin Again
We are finally back. Sorry for the long delay since the last episode, but life got in the way and our lowered enthusiasm made it hard to climb back into our respective saddles. But here it is, our wrap up of the first three episodes of the second half of Season 7 of AMC's The Walking Dead. We…

Episode 118 - And Now We Wait
We finally reconvene to wrap up the rest of the first half of season 7 of AMC's The Walking Dead. We aren't loving these last few episodes, but we get past them as quickly as we can so we can turn to things that we are loving and anticipating in a much bigger way. Listen in and hear us go on and…

Episode 117 - On Easy Street
Due to vacations, jobs, and a myriad range of other obstacles, we have not been able to return to the Z-Realm for a few weeks, but we are back to catch up on things now on a day when the thing we find ourselves MOST thankful for is that Trump is not yet actually in the oval office here in the US....

Episode 116 - Heroism Grace and Love
We reconvene this week for a refreshing new episode of AMC's The Walking Dead. After the bleak, depressing and utterly shocking premiere episode last week, this was a complete, and welcome, change of pace. We meet King Ezekiel, the audacious leader of the Kingdom, a new stronghold of survivors.…

Episode 115 - Bring Me My Axe
The Walking Dead has returned to AMC! We look at the season 7 premiere, titled "The Day Will Come When You Won't Be", and we finally find out who Negan killed at the end of season 6. We also learn that we do actually care for these characters and that our hearts can feel real pain when one of…

Episode 114 - The Way Things Are Now
After a VERY long break, the Z-Realm returns with an epic episode where we wrap up the second season of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead. To say that it ended in a better way than we expected would be an understatement of Kaiju-like proportions. For a show that we spent a huge portion of our time...

Episode 113 - The End Times Made Us Gods
AMC's Fear the Walking Dead has put out two more episodes since the last Z-Realm, so we joined together online to talk a bit about them and on the current direction of the show overall. We find a few things to praise about the episode but we do quickly veer off into other directions and talk…

Episode 112 - Jeer the Walking Dead
After a VERY long hiatus, the Z-Realm returns to commemorate the return of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead. The episode of the TV show left us wanting and we don't hold back on those opinions, but with very little to talk about regarding the journey of Nick...it left us a LOT of time to talk about…

Episode 111 - Sweet and Sour
We've reached the mid-season final of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead, through sheer perseverance alone. It reaches a bit of a conclusion before vanishing for a few weeks, but HBO's Game of Thrones continues with it's winning ways and we cover the two most recent episodes in fairly nerdy detail. We...
-
Episode 110 - North and South
No, we aren't rehashing the American civil war on this episode but we do talk at length about two shows that we have strong feelings for. One show continues to head ever-upward while the other keeps hanging out down closer to the bottom. We are certain that the lesser show could do better and we...
-
Episode 109 - Obligation
We are back, to fulfill our obligation to you, the listener, and to talk about the latest episode of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead. Titled "Blood in the Streets" it was a solid episode in the brief history of the show. We continue to learn more about our favorite character, Victor Strand, and we…

Episode 108 - Need a Hand?
With so many things to watch, the Z-Realm only glances briefly at the latest episode of AMC's Fear the Walking Dead. The crew of the Abigail continue their journey, which we find out is to Mexico, and the webisodes titled "Flight 462" is rammed together with the main storyline in this...

Episode 106 - Mercy Quota
Now that season 6 of The Walking Dead has run its course, it's time for the Z-Realm Podcast to take its usual post-season hiatus. Time to kick back and reflect. Maybe take a relaxing cruise. But wait, what's that emerging from the mist of ham-fisted plot devices? Why, it's the premier of season 2...

Episode 105 - It's All Over
Season 6 of AMC's The Walking Dead has concluded and we gather together to talk about what transpired and about the conspicuous lack of a certain tidbit of information that all the viewers were anticipating but which we were denied. We finally meet Negan, as portrayed by Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and…

Episode 104 - Careful with that Crotch Eugene
Why does AMC want to hurt us so much? Why does it do the things it does to the characters we've come to know over the past months on the Walking Dead? The most recent episode, titled "Twice as Far", has several vicious blows to the solar-plexus. A very downbeat episode, with many bittersweet...
-
Episode 103 - Not The Good Guys
It's another two-fer this time as we cover the last two episodes of AMC's The Walking Dead. Basically covering the initial onslaught in our group's attempt to "deal" with Negan. The action is spread out over two episodes and focuses heavily on Carol and her current state of mind. Both are…

Episode 102 - Leverage
This week, on AMC's The Walking Dead, we learn that the people in the Hilltop stronghold are the sort of people who put out a welcome mat, and they expect you to USE it! Please do not track your muddy footprints all over their clean rugs and floors. Be warned that there is a weird stretch of…

Episode 101 - Law of Averages
Things take a wide swing on the most recent episode of AMC's the Walking Dead. Titled "The Next World" it introduces the world to Jesus a.k.a Paul Rovia a.k.a. Paul Monroe. Played by British actor Tom Payne, fans of the comic book have been looking forward to his introduction and he certainly…
