  Tj's Top 100 Movie List Part 2 14.08.2026 45min

  Send us Fan Mail We’re back on TJ’s Top 100 movie list, and we’re doing it the only way that makes sense for our brains: spinning a wheel, pulling a random title, and immediately putting a number on it like we’re absolutely sure. The catch is we’re guessing TJ’s rankings, not our own, so every pick turns into a mini argument about vibes, rewatches, and the one scene you can’t forget. If you like movie podcasts that feel like a group chat with structure, this is that. We bounce through a stac...

  WYS Yap Sesh #2 07.08.2026 50min

  Send us Fan Mail You know a conversation is going off the rails when it starts with a fight about how to clap “up and down” and ends with survival prep, wildfire smoke migraines, van life logistics, and a full-blown war over Fahrenheit. That’s exactly what we deliver in this loose, funny yap sesh from Will You Survive, where the jokes are constant but the real-world takeaways sneak up on you. We pivot from nicotine banter and fake sponsorship bits into a surprisingly grounded talk about El N...

  Tj's Top 100 Movie List Part 1 24.07.2026 31min

  Send us Fan Mail Trying to guess a friend’s Top 100 movies sounds easy until you’re staring at a blank list, a spinning wheel, and a host who refuses to give you clean hints. TJ takes the chair and turns our film chat into a ranking game: the wheel pulls a random movie from his personal Top 100 list, and Eric and Alex have to lock in a number before we move on. The result is part competition, part comedy, and part accidental personality test. We bounce from nostalgia to modern cult picks in ...

  Will You Survive "Hidden " 17.07.2026 1h 7min

  Send us Fan Mail The best horror twist is the one that makes you replay the whole story in your head, and Hidden (2015) earns that kind of second look. We start with a family locked in a bunker for 301 days, listening to “breathers” stomp and hiss above them, rationing food, clinging to routine, and trying to keep their daughter calm when the walls feel like they are closing in. It’s survival horror at its most personal: not a war, not a hero quest, just the daily grind of staying quiet and s...

  Will You Survive "Project Hail Mary" 10.07.2026 49min

  Send us Fan Mail They wake a man up alone in deep space, point him at a dying star, and call it humanity’s best shot. We have a lot of fun tearing into Project Hail Mary, but the more we talk, the heavier the core question gets: what do you owe the world after the world treats you like equipment? We break down what makes this sci-fi survival movie hit so hard, from the opening amnesia and creeping dread to the laugh-out-loud moments that somehow don’t kill the tension. Ryan Gosling brings th...

  Will You Survive "The Book of Eli" 03.07.2026 1h 2min

  Send us Fan Mail A post-apocalyptic wasteland is scary enough. Add a locked Bible that everyone wants, and suddenly you’re not just fighting for water and food, you’re fighting over meaning and power. We put The Book of Eli (2010) under the microscope and ask the survival question that sits under every scene: what actually keeps you alive when society collapses, skill, faith, or pure luck? We talk about Eli’s “walk by faith, not by sight” mindset and why it lands as both spiritual theme and ...

  Will You Survive "Iron lung" 26.06.2026 1h 31min

  Send us Fan Mail A man gets sealed inside a rusted coffin of steel and lowered into an ocean of human blood. The radio tells him it’s a mission, but every new instruction feels like another layer of the sentence. We watched Markiplier’s Iron Lung and then went line by line through the details that make it hit so hard: the Quiet Rapture lore, the uneasy silence, and the constant fear that the only “help” he has is lying to him. We talk about why the movie feels so “video game” in the be...

  WYS Who Wants to Be a Gajillionaire? 19.06.2026 1h 7min

  Send us Fan Mail You can learn a lot about survival by watching people make the worst possible choices under pressure, so we decided to turn that chaos into a game. We’re playing “Who Wants To Be A Gajillionaire,” a trivia showdown built from the horror movies we’ve covered and the preparedness lessons we can’t stop arguing about. It’s part game show, part horror movie survival guide, and part excuse to roast each other for missing details we “definitely knew.” We bounce from 28 Days Later a...

  Will You Survive "Greenland" part 2 12.06.2026 40min

  Send us Fan Mail Nine months underground sounds survivable until you ask the only question that matters: what kind of world are you walking into when the door opens? We take the disaster movie Greenland and stress-test it like a real survival scenario, from the physics of comet impacts to the human behavior that makes everything worse. Along the way, we call out the little details movies reuse to sell danger, including that familiar atmospheric entry shockwave sound and the Wilhelm scream hid...
• 
  Will You Survive "Greenland" part 1 05.06.2026 42min

  Send us Fan Mail The comet is terrifying, but the part that sticks with us is what people do when they think the clock hit zero. We take on Greenland as a surprisingly grounded disaster movie and use it as a survival thought experiment: how fast normal life collapses, how quickly “help” turns into risk, and why a family plan matters more than any heroic speech. We talk through the movie’s big choices and its small details, from the government’s public messaging to the ugly incentives that sh...

  Will You Survive "As Above So Below " pt 2 29.05.2026 39min

  Send us Fan Mail Deep sea “monsters,” pirate legends, and outer space physics somehow belong in the same conversation and we prove it. We start with a weirdly mind-blowing fact that messes with your mental image of the anglerfish, then spiral into why the ocean still fuels sea monster folklore. From oarfish “sea serpent” sightings to kraken-style stories, we unpack how real animals, bad visibility, and exhausted sailors can turn a normal event into a lifelong bar story. Then we leave the wat...
• 
  Will You Survive "As Above So Below " pt 1 22.05.2026 40min

  Send us Fan Mail Paris has a world beneath it that most people never see, and As Above So Below turns that fact into a horror movie that feels uncomfortably plausible. We talk through why this 2014 found footage cult favorite still works, from its clean adventure-style opening to the moment the catacombs stop being a setting and start acting like a judge. If you’ve ever searched for an As Above So Below explanation, a Paris catacombs horror movie review, or a breakdown of “what the ending mea...

  WYS Yap Sesh 15.05.2026 37min

  Send us Fan Mail We bounce from a ridiculous cold open into a full-on Resident Evil lore spiral that tries to connect mold horror to classic Umbrella virus canon. We debate what counts as canon, why the timeline feels messy, and why the franchise stays fun even when it makes no sense. • forgetting a basic word and spiraling into filler talk • joking about “porn accessories” before a cat interruption • untangling Resident Evil 5 through Resident Evil 8 numbering • expla...
• 
  Will You Survive "The Tunnel" 08.05.2026 55min

  Send us Fan Mail A horror movie that can’t decide what it wants to be can still be a fun ride, but it’s going to make us argue. We watch The Tunnel (2011), the Australian found footage horror that also leans hard into a mockumentary style, and we immediately clash on the rating: Alex plants a flag in B tier while TJ and Eric push it down toward the C range. We break down what works and what doesn’t: the creepy underground setting, the feeling of trespassing somewhere you shouldn’t be, and th...

  Plastic Bags, Neck Pillows, And Other Terrible Survival Plans 01.05.2026 1h 3min

  Send us Fan Mail AI isn’t “coming” to media, it’s already running the floor. After a huge week at NAB in Las Vegas, we come back with one big question: what happens when the most powerful tools in broadcasting and content creation move faster than the rules meant to keep people safe? We talk about AI in broadcasting workflows, the uneasy vibe around hacking, and why regulation always seems a few years behind reality. Then we pivot to the real “will you survive” angle: crowds. Festivals...

  Will You Survive Our Fifth Tier List pt 2 24.04.2026 52min

  Send us Fan Mail We finish a massive survival movie tier list and argue our way through what deserves Iconic status versus what belongs in dog water. Along the way, we lock in our favorites, roast our “FX movies,” and end the season with a winner and a stack of new picks for next time. • debating A Quiet Place spin-offs and memory gaps • locking in top-tier zombie movies led by Train To Busan • ranking “black movies” and praising originality and suspense • building a “...
• 
  Will You Survive Our Fifth Tier List 17.04.2026 54min

  Send us Fan Mail 83 movies. One season finale. A tier list big enough to start fights. We sit down to rank every survival, horror, and zombie title we’ve covered so far, and the real debate hits fast: are we scoring “best movie,” or are we scoring “most iconic”? Because those are not the same thing. From game adaptations that shaped a generation of fans to classics that basically wrote the rules for the genre, we sort movies into tiers based on craft, vibes, and the moments that never leave ...

  Will You Survive REMIX: #Alive 10.04.2026 56min

  Send us Fan Mail Wrong answers only, and we mean it. We take the zombie movie Hashtag Alive and turn its biggest survival moments into a rapid-fire improv game where the goal is to give the worst possible advice and somehow make it funnier than the last round. We start at the outbreak: screaming neighbors, cannibal headlines, and that split second where panic makes people do the dumbest thing imaginable. From there we jump scene to scene, including the injured stranger at the door, the “big ...

  Survival Word Association Challenge 4: TJ Edition 03.04.2026 51min

  Send us Fan Mail We started the night saying we watched #Alive, a zombie movie that should have been an easy conversation starter. Then we did what we always do: immediately derailed into a chaotic survival game and argued like our lives depended on it. Welcome to One To One Hundred, where one of us picks a secret survival item and the rest try to guess it, getting a 1 to 100 “closeness” score that makes perfect sense only to the person holding the answer. What follows is a surprisingly reve...

  Will You Survive: Resident Evil Welcome To Raccoon City 27.03.2026 1h 5min

  Send us Fan Mail A Resident Evil movie that actually tries to look like the games sounds like a win on paper, but the real question is whether it feels like Resident Evil when the camera stops lingering on Easter eggs. We break down Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City with the same energy we bring to every survival horror watch: what works, what breaks immersion, and what choices would have landed harder if the story had room to breathe. We get into the big fan debates that make or break ...
