The officially unofficial podcast for AMC’s The Walking Dead. Jim, A.Ron, and occasional guest appearances by Sheriff Rick Grimes.
Hello, fellow surviors! Here is this week’s belated survival review. Scenario 1: Co-host of the Watching Dead promises weekly column on Friday, doesn’t deliver until Monday morning. What Jim did: Said, “That’s okay, just get it out whenever.” What Jim should have done: Punched A.Ron in the dick and screamed “NEXT TIME IT’S GOING TO…
Read MoreFirst off, I decided to re-watch episodes 101-103 this weekend. Maybe having these recently in memory gave me new insights into the characters; but I’m really digging what they’re doing with Shane.

Read MoreWelcome 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…
Read MoreHey guys! New show, new format. I’m going to do the instant review, and Jim and I will be doing original content twice or thrice a week.
