Getting to the nuts and bolts of this episode involves examining our entire outlook on the kinds of people we end up meeting in #TWDU and admitting that, as much as we hate "weak people", there's a value in having them around so that we may, yet again reach a "Returning Point". Fearing that #Jadis may have learned the wrong lesson from Simon (of #TheSaviors, #Negan's former right-hand man), we also wonder whether other characters are reaching that point to (perhaps #LeoBennett? #FelixCarlucci? ...and, no, we haven't forgotten the obvious: #IrisBennett) Our pre-show was QUITE spicy and we do dip our toes into the political/current events.

Believe it or not, this episode didn't please some of us as it did others. Maybe it's because #AltheaSzewczykPrzygocki isn't everyone's favorite character, so there's a lack of patience when it comes to her wrestling with the gargantuan proposition of living her own life/stepping into the story and on the run versus continuing to be the journalist whose purpose is to partition herself from her subjects in order to adequately capture the story of others. Believe it or not, the more we spoke about it, the better appreciation we had for this episode and the feelings everyone held towards this episode, because #WEAreSQUAWKINGDEAD I can't recommend the unedited episode recording enough, we do quite a bit of pre-show as we psyched ourselves up for a full day of recording (two episodes) while discussing some behind-the-scenes matters that only our supporters currently have access to.

Originally Recorded November 14th #SergeantBarca / #AlCalderon is the MVP of this episode with the scene stealing quote, "What we do now matters. Tomorrow is filled with blood and lies. It's all it will ever be." At his core, it's much in the same way #Negan started #TheSaviors ("We Save People"), but when did it all get away from #LylaBelshaw, #ElizabethKublek, and #MajorGeneralBeale? Is #MasonBeale the best character in the series? Does everyone, at this stage, hate #IrisBennett (including #PercyDelmado)?

Originally Recorded November 8th #AishaTyler is now in front of the camera as "Mickey", rather than behind (as she was in "J.D.", directing #AustinAmelio & #ChristineEvangelista). And lookie who we have here but #AlexSkuby, playing "Eli", whom we had the privilege of interviewing in [Episode 165]! On the surface, this episode was pretty satisfying: good guys triumph. What lies beneath? A whole set of possibly ugly truths about #VictorStrand and/or his demon, Howard! DEMON!

Rachael & Sherrandy just wanted to hop on a Zoom to congratulate #AlexSkuby on his recent appearance on #FearTheWalkingDead (and then it turned into a thing that you can watch/listen to)! As you may or may not already know, Alex is married to none other than #SarahRabinowitz, herself, #MoCollins (who just had her legendary episode air last week). He's also a comedic/stage/tv actor who also runs a very funny #podcast with fellow TikToker, #WayneHannah called ZenAF.tv No unedited episode recording, but now would be a very important reminder to just *follow us* (no rush to buy us a coffee or immediately join a membership tier) at https://Ko-fi.com/SQUAWKINGDEAD because we were able to reveal this conversation to  our followers ahead of this release, while the rest of the world remained ignorant! 📰FULL Interview Breakdown and all embedded content available here: TBD ⭐RATE US: RateThisPodcast.com/SQUAWKINGDEAD 🙏SUPPORT US: Ko-fi.com/SQUAWKINGDEAD 🏃‍♂️FOLLOW US (+more): SQUAWKINGDEAD.com --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/squawkingdead/message

Huck or #JenniferMallick? Killer/Savior or Daughter? #Jadis / #JadisStokes: Friend, Foe, or neither? "Who are you?" might actually be an ironic title: that we're much more than a binary "Good Guy" or "Bad Guy" and that it's taken a hell of a road to get to where we are. Maybe it's not too late? It's never too late. Some technical difficulties in the original recordings that flew under the wire, which made the edit take a little longer than usual to produce, but we cut out a TON of laughter and behind the scenes moments throughout!

#MoCollins drags her character, #SarahRabinowitz, through every of her iterations in this episode and her performance simply left us all with goosebumps! #DemetriusGrosse returns as #EmileLaRoux's vengeful twin brother, #JosiahLaRoux, who (as Dave predicted) isn't quite like his brother: not as interested in bloodshed and more interested in answers and inner-peace. On paper, this episode shouldn't be as phenomenal as it is, but the performers and the score really elevate it to quickly becoming the best episode of the season. We had some technical difficulties in this one, coupled with some great banter pre/post-show. Download/Stream the unedited edition of this recording and support this podcast!

Is #ElizabethKublek the enemy we thought she was? Is #Anne / #JadisStokes(?) someone we should worry about? And, for someone who's supposed to be(?) a protagonist, #IrisBennett sure acts a lot like the side she's fighting against (sneaky AND manipulative)! It is really nice to see most of our "family" together and it's nice to see #EltonOrtiz find his place in #TWDUniverse SO MUCH was cut out from the final edit, mostly due to massive technical difficulties mostly. It almost begs the question why we didn't just release this version low-fi and unedited for the sake of coherence!

This one kicked us in the feels, then proceeded to kick us, again, while we were down. We're starting to notice some emerging parallels: #MorganJones attempting pulling #GraceMukherjee out of her agony in the last episode, where #JohnDorieSr is (in this episode) attempting to pull #JuneDorie out. Both men having gone through longterm personal turmoil, now finally able to try to pull their counterparts out of their own quagmire. And, of course, #VictorStrand being the one to bring the Dories to safety... 🤔 We had a lot of laughs and talked about a LOT of behind-the-scenes things during the pre-show and post-show to this episode!

Should our protagonists(?) be thinking locally or globally? Is #SilasPlaskett's allegiance going to be tested? #JenniferMallick is starting to realize that her mother, #ElizabethKublek, might actually be a monster (and that she might be one by proxy). And terrific performance by #NicholasCantu as #EltonOrtiz, this episode! So we definitely cut out a lot of behind the scenes moments from before and definitely after this episode.

We're starting to notice this season, along with the darker turn the continuation of the anthology-style storytelling has taken, even the "everything gets a return" motif becomes twisted. Even though #GraceMukherjee seems to overcome her obstacles and things turn out ok for her and #MorganJones (and lil-Mo) by the end of the episode, it's just barely!

Just when #JenniferMallick thought she might have one good day, #LeoBennett comes in like a wrecking ball and turns her world beyond upside-down. Between that, the knowledge that her clemency may have come at a cost (even though she's choosing to focus on the positive), and how (by the end of it) Percy is gunning for her, it seems like Huck is beset on all sides. So, here's the deal, after we ended the recording, we decided to jump down the science rabbit hole and discuss the formula on #TBrooksEllis' digital board, which was pretty fun.

#FearTWD is BACK! ...but seriously, did it ever leave us?! Just like #TWDWorldBeyond, #FearTheWalkingDead gives us a slow-burn return into the Nuclear #ZombieApocalypse by way of *WILL* then goes zero-to-sixty by "yeeting" that slow-burn right off a roof.

This episode was far better received than the last, as the doors into insights regarding the #CivicRepublic / #CivicRepublicMilitary nearly blow right open. It's almost as if the 1st two episodes either play on one another or were supposed to be a part of a larger, 2-part #SeasonPremiere.

You'd think, in the #TWD's final season, they wouldn't be introducing such fascinating characters like #LeahShaw, who is (as of the end of this episode) the #ReaperQueen. But here we are: Pope is dead (long live #RitchieCoster: a BRILLIANT actor, gone too soon), #DarylDixon, #MaggieRhee, #Negan, and Elijah are (hopefully) on the run, and who knows where Leah's mindset truly lies?

BE ON THE LOOKOUT for flying BONES that were PICKED this episode, as we sorted out the graveyard of hallucinatory misunderstandings and incredulous feats. That aside, although the Season 2 Premiere was on the underwhelming side, the implications set forth in this episode are anything but and allowed us to extrapolate a whole lot (we'd be lying if #MattNegrete's Inside the Episode exclusive, for #AMCPlus subscribers didn't help a bit, which is another critique on the episode) 🚨SUBMISSIONS to our Spooky SQUAWKtober Cosplay Contest are STILL OPEN!

Originally Recorded 2021-08-24 ... we can hear you judging us from here. We're so pleased to share with you our conversation with #SarahRabinowitz (on #FearTWD) herself, #MoCollins! We recorded this #interview a little over a month ago, but have had to prioritize episode releases and squeezing out a backlog of overdue projects and recordings. Now that we've achieved a level of equilibrium, here it is! We go through her career as a sketch comedian, to how much closer she is to playing the character/idealized version of herself, by way of #FearTheWalkingDead.

This episode gave us so much to work with in terms of parallels: people mirroring other people and scenes mirroring other scenes. #TheReapers & #TheCommonwealth, more than any other theme, are the most representative of those contrasting themes: The former being the natural conclusion had out survivors remained in the wild ("kill them all") and the latter a result of having the shelter and luck to survive behind walls (preoccupation with the seemingly trivial). There were many bones to pick, but we sorted through them and came out on top - all while having some laughs along the way. I love the unedited version of this episode. So many mistakes! And, uh, Dave has a few senior moments that we had to minimize! The post show, we go into the development of our Spooky SQUAWKtober Cosplay Contest, so that's a nice bit of behind the scenes!

We not only got to find out about the #HappyAccidents throughout production and the twist and turns creating this movie took, but also a little bit more about Chris, himself: his background, the movies/narratives that inspire him as a film-maker, and what it took for him to release this movie as the pandemic hit - just after principle photography was filmed. 📽The Old Ways | #Netflix | https://www.netflix.com/watch/81422437 📰FULL Q&A Breakdown, The Original WATCH PARTY, and all embedded content available here: https://squawkingdead.blogspot.com/2021/10/episode-151-old-ways-q-w-director.html RATE US: RateThisPodcast.com/SQUAWKINGDEAD SUPPORT US: Ko-fi.com/SQUAWKINGDEAD FOLLOW US (+more): SQUAWKINGDEAD.com --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/squawkingdead/message

In all the years we've watched #TWD, we've only come so close to the kind of spooky episode we received this week. Powerful performances delivered by #LaurenRidloff (AKA "Connie") & #KevinTCarroll (AKA "Virgil"). And I think we're reaching an interesting turning point when it comes to #LeahShaw, #DarylDixon, and #TheReapers. I cannot encourage you to download the unedited episode recording, enough. Since Aliza and I were the only hosts, I had such a lovely, long chat with her during the pre-show - almost worthy of it's own #TWDFamily Branches episode!
