706: "Twice As Far" (TWD S6E14 Rewatch) 15.06.2026 1t 40min

Oh Denise, sacrificed to the cynical Walking Dead Gods who seem to hate it when people have character building moments in life. This was a good episode, but depressing. But as always, Lucy and I find things to laugh about. We’re going to need that superpower for awhile here, aren't we….?

704: "Not Tomorrow Yet" (TWD S6E12 Rewatch) 01.06.2026 1t 33min

Ugh, it’s this one. The feeling of what it was like for us to watch this episode is well-captured by the look on most characters’ faces throughout. They’re clearly not happy with what they’re being asked to do. And neither are we. The show takes a turn here, in some ways into darker territory than ever before. Yep. Enjoying the rewatch?

702: "The Next World" (TWD S6E10 Rewatch) 18.05.2026 2t 11min

What a breath of fresh air this episode is after the intensity and trauma of the season so far. The lightness and warmth of it are such a welcome relief. And what a milestone it is to see Rick and Michonne finally get together. The first time around it felt abrupt to some, but this rewatch has made it clear they were destined for each other from the moment they met. We’re happy to be joined this week by special guest Clare Reterrer, one of the biggest Rick/Michonne shippers I know.

701: "No Way Out" (TWD S6E9 Rewatch) 11.05.2026 2t 11min

Has there ever been a scene in TWD as badass as Rick and crew and all the Alexandrians hacking and slashing their way through a horde of invading zeds?! I mean, amazing episode, and I’m happy to share it with special guest Veronica, who ranks it as her very favorite. PS I’m personally pouring one out for the Anderson family: Jesse, Ron, and especially poor Sam. You’re gone, but not forgotten!

This ep is one of the lower-rated ones this season, but my wonderful guest Rebecca and I found a lot to talk about. Two particularly crucial things about this ep, IMO, are: 1: It’s when the Alexandrians finally come to terms with the world as it is in the ZA, and 2. There’s a really cool sewer zombie!

It’s the cheesemaker! Some of you guys love this episode and some hate it — a polarizing one for sure. Even though I see it differently now, I still love and appreciate it so much. Top-tier TWD for me. But I think my take is more nuanced than last time, and it was a blast to have Alex Kruger (who co-hosted our TWD: Dead City coverage with Ben) with me to thoroughly talk it through.

693: "First Time Again" (TWD S6E1 Rewatch) 02.03.2026 1t 41min

Crazy episode that definitely takes at least two viewings to really get it (all the black and white scenes are earlier, and color later). Coming right on the heals of the season five finale, this episode felt like a continuation of that season, which made me like it even more than I did the first time around. First Time Again :P As mentioned on the podcast, Lucy has a busy schedule for the next couple of months, but we don’t want to leave you guys hanging, so I (Jason) will be continuing on with the rewatch with guest hosts — happy to welcome longtime listener and “What Is From?” podcaster Alex with me for this one — and Lucy will be back for the big 700 (if not before).

692: Coldwater (2025) 23.02.2026 1t 20min

Andrew Lincoln starred in a TV series, and so of course we’re gonna talk about it! Thing is, he plays kind of a berk (that’s British for chode). Coldwater (available on Paramount+ in the U.S.) is a lot of fun though — it’s funny, thought-provoking, and it’s a good old-fashioned thriller to sink your teeth into. I wouldn’t necessarily give it my highest recommendation, but honestly, that fact that Lucy and I had so much fun talking about it made me like it even more. You gotta be ready to see Andrew Lincoln playing a berk though….

Bonus: Jason & Karen on Severance 18.02.2026 1t 44min

Hey all, here’s a bonus episode for ya. If you’re a fan of the Apple TV series Severance — or if you’ve missing hearing me (Jason) and Karen together — I’m pretty sure you’ll like it. Karen in particular is in top form here :) So what is this? This is the two of us on my other podcast, Wax Episodic, talking Severance S1E1 “Good News About Hell”. What is Severance? It’s a trippy show where for some reason office workers have had their brains bifurcated so that while at work, they retain only work memories, and only outside memories on the outside. It’s a mysterious, mind-bending, amusingly strange, beautifully shot, intelligent thriller about identity, memory, and corporate control, and it’s on Apple TV, and Karen and I will be covering the entire series on Wax Episodic. If you like this episode: Please head on over and subscribe to Wax Episodic, which you can find at waxepisodic.com. Or just search “Wax Episodic” wherever you get your podcasts. Our coverage of episode 2 will be out in a couple days. Thanks! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

691: "Conquer" (TWD S5E16 Rewatch) 16.02.2026 1t 58min

That’s a wrap for season 5! Because of the Daryl show and a few other detours, it took us six months, which was just as long as when we covered it the first time. Lol. Anyway, the season ends with this packed episode that’s a turning point for Alexandria and Rick and the fam, and we were thrilled to have listener Carisa from Portland to talk It out with us. Be sure to listen to the end for some book recommendations.
