The Walking Dead 'Cast

Podcastica

Fans of The Walking Dead know it's so much more than a zombie show. It's an emotionally rich, character-driven series about love and loss, and found family, and the lengths we'd go through to protect the people we care about. That's what's kept us coming back all these years. (And also we like zombies.)

I’m Jason Cabassi. My cohost Karen and I started podcasting about The Walking Dead back in 2010. Along the way, I’ve appeared on the show a couple of times as a walker, hosted hundreds of Q&A panels with TWD actors at conventions across the U.S., and eventually teamed up with my current co-host, the witty and insightful Lucy Hinnie. Together—with some incredible guests—we’ve covered The Last of Us and every Walking Dead spinoff, from Fear to Dead City.

Right now, we’re enjoying a rewatch of the original series—with the full story in mind—and diving into the moments that still hit hard. Past guests on the podcast include Andrew Lincoln (Rick), Danai Gurira (Michonne), Norman Reedus (Daryl), Steven Yeun (Glenn), Lauren Cohan (Maggie), Robert Kirkman, Angela Kang, Greg Nicotero, and many more.

And the most fun and fulfilling part of all this has absolutely been interacting with you guys and making it a conversation. So write in, send a voice message, and be part of it!

We're Podcastica, and we've been doing episode-by-episode deep dives into great TV for over a decade now. We're fans, and we aim to enhance your experience of these shows.

    Bonus: Silo S3E6-10

    Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — Wow, this slow-burn show picked up the pace in the second half of season three, and we’re totally digging it (pun!). Thrilling to see so many questions answered, and new ones raised, and to find out that the final season isn’t too far away — July 9, 2007! Join Jason, Veronica, and Amelie as we get into all the details of the second half of Silo season 3, maybe our favorite segment of this series so far.

Also on Wax Episodic: We cover these other intelligent, engaging, oftentimes delightfully twisted series: Severance (Apple TV): A mind-bending show where office workers’ minds are severed into two selves, one that exists only at work, and the other only outside. It’s beautiful, brilliant, funny, gripping, mysterious, thrilling, thought-provoking, and meticulously crafted in every way. Hosted by Jason and Karen’s innies. Fallout (Amazon): A crazy retro-futuristic, post-apocalyptic melange of wholesomeness and depravity. One of the best looking shows on TV, funny as hell, violent AF (but in a cartoony way), with a great cast, including Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets) and Walton Goggins (The White Lotus, The Righteous Gemstones). Not to be missed! Hosted by Jason, Kara, and Kasi. Pluribus (Apple TV): Everyone is transformed into a pleasant hive mind — except for Carol (Rhea Seehorn), the most miserable woman on the planet, who must save the world from happiness. It sounds weird, and it is… in the best way. Created by the great Vince Gilligan, of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Hosted by Jason and Karen. IT: Welcome to Derry (HBO): A fun, scary, and surprisingly great prequel to the 2016 and 2019 IT movies, with Pennywise stalking the children of 1962 Derry. A mix of heart, mystery, charm, and some shockingly disturbing Nightmare on Elm Street-esque horror. Cohosted by Shawn of Strange Indeed. Alien: Earth (FX): From the brilliant Noah Hawley (Fargo, Legion), this one really scratches that sci-fi itch. A greedy corporate tech overlord transfers the consciousness of a group of terminally ill children into highly performant synth bodies. And the Xenomorph is in it, too. Also, Tim Olyphant!

    717: TWD: Dead City S3E8 "Tenebrae"

    Ben and Alex are back to break down The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 3 finale, Episode 8, “Tenebrae,” as Maggie, Negan and Hershel fight to take back Manhattan and one of the strongest seasons of Dead City yet comes to a close. This week, they dive into the final showdown with Dillard, Hershel stepping into his own as a leader, and the huge emotional payoff to Maggie and Negan’s evolving relationship. They also discuss how seemingly every piece of Season 3 ultimately mattered, Maggie finally embracing the kind of leader she can become, and why the finale feels less like the end of a story and more like a soft reboot launching Dead City into something much bigger. Plus, plenty of listener feedback on “Hourglass,” thoughts on Season 3 as a whole, speculation about where Maggie and Negan could go from here, and whether the show may finally be positioning itself to reconnect with the larger Walking Dead universe.

    716: TWD: Dead City S3E7 "Hourglass"

    Ben and Alex are back to break down The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 3, Episode 7, “Hourglass,” as the penultimate episode delivers the payoff to several storylines that have been building all season and leaves them desperate to see what happens next. This week, they dive into Dillard’s transformation into the threat hiding in plain sight, Renata’s struggle to hold onto her ideals, and some of the strongest Maggie and Negan material Dead City has given us yet. They also discuss how “Genesis” changes the way they view Maggie and Negan’s relationship, Negan’s surprising vulnerability and desire for Maggie to find her happy ending, Maggie’s connection with Luis, and whether Dillard really is the season’s “big bad” or simply the latest test in a season where survival itself has been the real enemy. Plus, a ton of listener feedback on “Genesis,” theories and predictions heading into the Season 3 finale, and plenty of the usual tangents along the way.

    715: TWD: Dead City S3E6 "Genesis"

    Ben and Alex are back to break down The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 3, Episode 6, “Genesis,” and an episode that may not advance the main story very far—but could be one of the most important explorations of Maggie and Negan the franchise has ever given us. This week, they dive deep into what this alternate timeline reveals about the core of both characters: Maggie’s lifelong struggle to let go of the past, Negan’s inability to control his darker impulses even when his intentions are good, and the fascinating idea that these two may be destined to find and influence one another no matter what life they’re living. They also discuss the emotional return of Beth, how differently Maggie’s life may have unfolded without the apocalypse, the episode’s themes of fate and choice, and whether Maggie and Negan’s connection runs even deeper than either of them realizes. Plus, plenty of listener feedback from “Imperialis,” some fantastic hidden details and callbacks scattered throughout the alternate New York, theories about what all of this means heading into the final two episodes, and a special message for the Zedheads from The Walking Dead’s Ross Marquand!

    Ben and Alex are back to break down The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 3, Episode 5, “Imperialis,” as the struggle to rebuild Manhattan begins exposing some serious cracks beneath the surface. This week, they dive into the formation of the wonderfully bizarre Dead Squad, the growing divide over how this new society should be governed, Dillard finally finding a group where he belongs, and the increasingly complicated dynamic between Maggie and Negan. But it's the episode's shocking final confrontation that really gets the conversation going, as Ben and Alex debate whether Negan crossed a line—or simply did what no one else was willing to do. Plus, plenty of listener feedback, theories about the developing power struggle between Maggie, Renata and Negan, some speculation about where the final three episodes could take us, and the usual assortment of wonderfully inappropriate detours along the way.

This week, they dive into Maggie’s continued evolution, her relationships with Luis and Renata, Negan’s complicated place within the growing Manhattan community, and why this quieter, more character-driven episode still gives them plenty to unpack. They also discuss the season’s refreshing approach to storytelling, the growing investment in its new characters, Dillard’s increasingly intriguing role, and what the episode’s final moments could mean moving forward. Plus, plenty of listener feedback, theories about Maggie and Negan’s futures, some classic Walking Dead callbacks, and as usual a few completely unexpected detours along the way.

    Bonus: Jeffrey Dean Morgan Walker Stalker Panel (2016)

    While we wait for Dead City S3, here's a repost of the Jeffrey Dean Morgan panel from Walker Stalker Con Atlanta 2016. This happened just a few days after S7E1 aired, so it was fresh in people's minds, and it was JDM's first convention appearance as Negan. One of my favorite panels ever. JDM slips in and out of character, and quickly wins the crowd over. Let's see if he'll do the same for you :) We're also joined by Greg Nicotero, who directed the S7 premiere and gives a lot of great info on the thinking and logistics behind it. Enjoying the rewatch?

    709: TWD S7E1 "The Day Will Come When You Won't Be" Rewatch

    There’s so much weight to this episode, in different ways. It’s absolutely landmark episode of The Walking Dead. And I didn’t remember how much it was just Negan applying constant pressure to Rick, until he breaks. Yes, it’s hard to watch, and I don’t blame anyone who thought it was too much. And also I think for what it was, it was done so well. Lucy and I are so pleased to be joined by Ben for this one to help us do it justice. Of course Ben hosts this podcast for Dead City coverage, and I think it was a good balance of viewpoints among the three of us. Hope you enjoy! As we mentioned on the podcast, the rewatch will be on hiatus for awhile after this one. Sometime in the next two weeks I’ll be joined by Chris of The Talking Dead podcast and Rich to cover the new Evil Dead movie, Evil Dead Burn, and then soon after, Alex and Ben will be on for Dead City S3!

    708: "Last Day on Earth" (TWD S6E16 Rewatch)

    Welp, it’s time. Here’s Negan! Such a polarizing character, and y’all know I have my gripes. But I absolutely can’t deny he brought a huge shot of adrenaline to this show. He’s a character I often find incredibly fun to watch, and also, in some ways, frustratingly problematic. I’m very glad to have Alex here—cohost of our Dead City coverage and a huge Negan fan—to go over this landmark episode, with maybe the most iconic scene in all of The Walking Dead. So buckle up. Whether you like it or not, it’s pee-pee pants city time. Mentioned Fantastic interview with Scott Gimple (video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kc9KuGaSCAY Enjoying the rewatch?

    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.
