Reanimated Podcast

For our Father's Day episode, Reanimated honors affable dad Paul Billings as "The Janitor's Boy" and "The Relic" really serve to drive home that if there's any kind of celebratory festival in the Silo, it's probably to cover up some nefarious business. Also, Common, dude. What a series of performances from this guy, holy crap. 

Officials are dropping like flies in the Silo. Will Jules' questions unburied dangerous truths? Or just get everyone killed!? I don't know! Also this "!?" is called an interrobang. Just think that's cool.

There might not be any zombies in this bunker, but there's plenty of existential dread and dystopia, so Reanimated can get down with that. Come watch Silo with us!

We bid adieu to the First Street house for now as the first season of Mayfair Witches comes to a close. 

More witchy business this week on the show - always up for a little Chris Coy villain action!

In this episode we took a stroll down to the forest for a hearty session of night wailing. 

The podcast takes a witchy turn this week as Reanimated looks into its cauldron at The Mayfair Witches on AMC. We try to remember everything we know about the books that we loved so much.

Reanimated went to the movies for this episode and took in the Robert Kirkman-penned Renfield! What a hoot! Between the physical performances from Nicholas Hoult and Awkwafina, the pure comedic genius of Ben Schwartz and sheer presence of Shohreh Aghdashloo and Nicolas Cage, there was something for everyone. Also, there were gouts of blood. 

The French film The Trip was an actual trip in this episode of Reanimated. We had so many questions but ultimately none of them mattered as much as this film being able to keep us entertained, which it did! against all odds. 

Class warfare, environmentalism, corporate greed and parenting were all on the docket this week on the podcast with the Canadian film Brain Freeze. Come with us as we navigate the back nine in the dead of winter. 

H.A. Conrad emerged from her covid cocoon to record this episode of the podcast wherein we took a look at the cult film Re-Animator (no relation). It's pretty fun, except for the part that Conrad had to fast forward. 

Hey reanimators - some of us are chugging Heineken in front of a Vermeer painting while asking people to alsjeblieft, so it's time for a trip down memory lane on the pod! We offer you a recording from ancient times, May 25, 2013, in which two fresh-faced podcasters discussed Max Brooks' World War Z and the upcoming Brad Pitt film. Simpler times. 

That's all she wrote for the first season of The Last of Us season 1. Reanimated breaks down the final two episodes in this podcast, with discussion on Joel's 'I've done all the sidequests' endgame prowess and how that translates into television and then a rousing discussion on the morality of how those last 15 minutes of the finale unfold. 

Reanimated finally gets caught up on our backlog with Kin and Left Behind this week, showing off two very different reunions and a fun time at the mall.

We're a few weeks late and Stuart's mic is borked but we're back for more The Last of Us. We really reveled in talking through episodes 4 and 5 after a couple of viewings.

This one has blown up big time. Nick Offerman and Murray Bartlett put on a showcase of terrific acting skills as the show veers away from the game's plot.   

We're back this episode for more reveling in The Last of Us. Not only did this episode have a stellar cold open set in Jakarta, it brought us face to face with the clickers with great effect. We also said goodbye to one of our core cast with a very tender (you might even say it was a tendril) moment. 

We brought in Kyle this week to help us process the wonder that is The Last of Us. The show seems to be a powerhouse based on its first episode. Have a listen and watch it with us!

This one has been on our list since the earliest days of Reanimated and it was great to visit Havana, albeit in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. This film puts a wacky cast together with a lot of jokes, political satire about Cuba and zombies and honestly lands in some new territory, so that made it a lot of fun to watch. There was also a bunch of new trailers that dropped last week so we dug into Renfield, Blood, Evil Dead: Rise and some other tidbits. 

We sank our teeth into the final episode of the season in this episode. Sure we have our little gripes here and there but overall, this show really works on a lot of levels. Looking forward to a second season!
