I actually skipped the first showing of last weeks Walking Dead because I couldn't stand not finding out what happened next in WA.

Huge props to the cast and crew of WA!

now, THAT is sweet. A podcast being more powerful then a well known TV-show with a grand reputation. Sweet. Sweetsweetsweet. Maybe one reason could be that WA thrills your imagination, while tWD simply puts everything on the plate. ;)
My advice: You have listened ONCE to WA; then don't stop listening. Listen to it some more times. You will recognize a lot more details, understand certain dialogues and situations 'new' and draw even more joy and excitement out of it.
Also: Feel free to share your thoughts on this forum. There is always plenty of stuff to talk about! Looking forward to seeing your thoughts and ideas!

All the best!
Liam

Hey Josh. Welcome to the community of WA addicts... :)

I got hooked on the show right off the bat like you did. There was never a question of whether I would listen to the whole thing or not. I started downloading them all in iTunes after the 1st episode....

Now that you're all caught up on WA, jump into the threads on the forum and share your thoughts and theories.

See ya around!

Steve. For halloween one year, I impaled a mannequin on a flag pole attached to the front of my house. My father-in-law built the flag pole out of a steal fence post with a large pointed fence cap. He like to build things large and strong. I mount my guy on it with red paint splattered on the end of the post. My nieghbour suggested that we name him Pierce D. Heart.

I think this may help a lot in a zombie-apocalypse - to improvise weapons and to be inventive in "taking care of things". Welcome!

I have already started listening from the start again. :) Great character development, dialog, and sound effects.. WA really pulls you in from the start, and held my interest better then any other zombie movie/show/book i have seen/read. I believe what draws me in the most, is like you said, on movies/shows its all just set down in front of you and there isn't really anything left to the imagination other then a couple twist here and there, or with books you are locked in, but still you are focused on reading, and still aware of whats going on in the room around you. But with WA, when you put on some noise canceling headphones and turn the lights off, with a good imagination it almost feels like you are there. Like you are a part of whats happening. And THAT is what has me hooked on WA.


Thanks for the welcomes. Looking forward to reading the thoughts and opinions in this forum. :)

I feel like i have to introduce myself now.

My name is Lisa, I'm in Texas -work in an office that will afford NO PROTECTION on V Day. So I hope my best friend will be getting her CHL very soon. Then I need to go work on mine ;)

Erm...I love horror movies, stories, podcasts, etc. My fiance keeps trying to convince me that "surrounding myself with that stuff and putting it straight into my head every day is not healthy." But until I find a podcast of just mental images of rainbows, I guess he's SOL. Anyways, hello zombie world!

---

Welcome!!! When you find THAT podcast, please post it here so I can check out rainbows (and unicorns and glitter), too! Until then, you're finace is sooo TOTALLY SOL! LOL Enjoy.

Welcome! It's zombie world here so join in and have a good time. Just don't get bit. We'll have to put you down. :D

Hi Trublud,

this podcast is incredible. Looking forward to seeing your thoughts and opinions on the forum! And since you have caught up, how about trying the REPTrivia?

All the best!

Hi there, just joined. Just starting the podcast, it's amazing so far!

You're going to love it, Ghost. Waaaaaaaay better than any other zombie story out there. Way better than Walking Dead, that's for sure.
You have a good half a year to get caught up before Season 4 starts next fall (I think).
Get caught up and then hang out with us on the Forums! :cool:

pfff I'll be lurking anyways

Hey Ghost (sorry I called you Lurker duh :tinfoil:), welcome!
Not only is KC's audio drama the best thing that I've personally found out there in podcast land but the forum is a lot of fun too. The members are able to contribute as much as they want, and comments or trends have sometimes led to new things being added to the forum. KC is great in how he responds to what his customers seem to want. You'll see some of us that are always on here and then it'll really pick up when the show starts up again in August. It can get a little hairy with opinions and so forth but generally most are considerate and open minded folks. And if not then Osiris ot Limaster, or other are always available to set them straight. As you're going through the podcast for the first time, please don't hesitate to offer your own interpretations, opinions, or whatever you want whenever you want. I've listened through it many many times and sometime still hear something I hadn't caught before. Enjoy!

Nope, no kitten heads here. Now....annoying co-workers....that's a whole other thing

Annoying co-workers are a great Zombie deterrent. Just trip a few as you make your escape.

Welcome to the Forum.

Hi All,

Been an avid podcast listener for a few years now listening to Scott Sigler, J.C. Hutchins, Seth Harwood and Paul Elard Cooley to mention a few. I cannot believe I've missed this! I heard about it from this blog http://www.viewfromvalhalla.com/2013...36-were-alive/.

Season 1 nearly finished, downloading Season 2!

Hello Ghost and nilling,

nice to have you on the forum as well. Enjoy your stay and all the fuss/ fuzz (?) anyone makes around here. :)

All the best!
Liam

Just joined today. Found the podcast while using podkicker on my Android phone.

Was caught up on another podcast I was listening to and had it search for scifi stuff. Found We're Alive! and fell in love with it. I am catching up now, just finished with Chapter 21. I am looking forward to hearing the rest.

I am in WNY and a big scifi fan. Married, no kids. Work for an ISP.

Welcome to all the fun! Have a look around and see what's going on. Lots of stuff to do and folks to talk to. Jump on in....

Hello everyone!

I´m new at the forum, but I´ve been listening to WA for some time now. I am actually on the second run now, can´t wait for season 4. Thank god I just found the WND podcast, so now I can dwelwe deeper into the WA-universe.

About me: I live in Stockholm, Sweden with my husband and two kids ( I am slowly but "surly" getting my kids into the Zombieworld, a tip is to start with some sweet games like Plants vs Zombies then they are hooked).
I work as a sales woman and in my free time I read a lot and I love cooking.

Well, don´t know what else to tell. Meaby that I have a big crush on Shane Salk, oops don´t tell my husband :hsugh:

Hey SwedeGirl! Welcome to the forum. If you like WA (and really, who doesn't?) then you've come to the right place...

Welcome to the Tower. There's some great discussions all over the place. Check out the Episode Discussion threads to dig deeper into individual episodes/chapters. The Theories threads are the places that discussions happen like "How did it start?" and "How will it end?" and everything in between.

And if you want to test you're knowledge of all things WA, then click the Reptrivia button up at the top of the page and try out the We're Alive trivia quizzes.

Looking forward to seeing you around the place. Enjoy!

- Bubba

Hi SwedeGirl.
All things scbubba said.

All the best!
Liam

I'm a caveman when it comes to computers--this is the first and hopefully only blog/podcast/website thingy I've ever signed up for--so I apologize if my... whatever, avatar? Profile?... looks generic and lame. I signed up for this site because I wanted to see if there was a real zombie niche, for lack of a better word, still out there, and I couldn't read your guys' stuff unless I signed up. Looks like there kind of is?

It's hard to phrase this right so as not to come off like a bearded guy who spends the majority of his time with a laptop in a Starbucks wearing a kepi hat, turtleneck and lensless glasses (hoping against hope that some lovely ladies at a nearby table speak in stage whispers about how I must be an artist or screenwriter), but: I just wanted to see if there are more than the close-knit group of people I know that care more than just in passing about zombies. Reason? I'm nearly finished writing my zombie novel and while I don't expect to sell millions, I wanted to see if there's a group of folks out there who'd even be interested in picking it up for what would hopefully be an entertaining read. I promise one thing about the book, it is impossible for it to be worse than whathisname's zombie novel from New Girl. That being said, do any of you read zombie books? Or do the majority of you just subscribe to this podcast and watch Walking Dead?

Note: I am absolutely NOT trying to plug my book here. That would be more douche-ish than actually BEING a guy in a turtleneck pretending to be a writer in a Starbucks. I just want to know if enthusiasts like you read zombie books, so IF, against that day later this month when I try (and likely fail) to get a publisher to stamp APPROVAL on my quote unquote manuscript, I can possibly say, "Hey, publisher dude or Lady, the zombie thing is still alive and kicking (pun intended) so maybe you should snatch this up before I break down and e-publish the sh** out of this book instead of waiting around in my tea room with the neighborhood watch sipping Camellia Sinensis awkwardly tittering about how dreary cloudy days are."

Other note: I probably wouldn't have gotten back on here after first signing up if a nastygram didn't appear in my email about how disloyal I am for not logging on in the last 28 days or so. Like I said in the beginning, I'm a caveman when it comes to this stuff. So, thank you, anonymous nastygram writer. You've given me a reason to live. Or, perhaps better to say: I'm still alive, yo.

Hello Dr. Tripple-B.

Your pseudonym is kind of ... awesome. No reason to worry ebout. My first thought was: "Creative. Sweet. How the hell would someone consider himself as spineless and meaningless and present himself as tripple-b-rated???" But I guess you have a lot more spine and meaning then many people out there. Reason: You write, you like zombie-pop-culture, you have registered to this forum. Welcome!

Anyway: The WA podcast fills a very sweet niche in the zombie-popculture. There are few (if any) podcasts dedicated to this topic. And the cast and crew around Kc Wayland do a terrific job with their 'We're Alive'-show. I think that is one of the major reasons why more and more people stick with it.

If you pay close attention to the forum-sections of "Everything Else", "Writer's Lounge" and "Fan Fiction" as well as the blog-section of the WA-communicty, you will recognize that there are many members around who dedicate more time to all-things-zombie then just listening to this podcast. Besides: All the forum-sections about discussions about WA reflect this as well. So, yeah: You will find "zombie-fans" in numbers on this board.

That being said: You will also find people who read some up to a lot zombie-novels. And if you ask for seriously ment critics, you most likely will find them here. Also you can rest assured that you will find a lot of people here who are not just hotshots tossing around opinions; instead there are many people around who have a lot of insight into literature, story-telling, pop-culture etc. So again: You have chosen the right place for whatever you like to do ...

Enjoy your time!
All the best!
Liam

Thanks for the welcome. Two things: Has anybody on here gotten something zombo-related published, e-style or otherwise? That'd be very interesting to know, so like a fan suckling at the for-reals-novelist's teats I could pick their brain slash experience with it and go from there. Item numero dos: Where is the Writer's Lounge? I suck at this, as previously mentioned. I found "Everything Else" and "Fan Fiction", but not the Writer's Lounge. Unless, which is most probable, I was IN the Writer's Lounge whenst I came across the other two forums.

As for the Triple-B rated, that's really just a horrible attempt at a pen name's initials. It wouldn't be prudent for me to publish my actual name (if that ever happened in DrSkitz's Imagination Land) as I'm still in the military and doing "stuff" that uh... know what? Never mind. Saying that I can't say things is retarded. People that do that usually aren't actually doing things they shouldn't talk about. Suffice it to say that beyond the military thing, I use a fake name in my gmail address (that Google recently had a giant little girl hissy fit about) so it is slightly less easy for people to look me up and see what I write.

BUT a few months ago my landlord approved of me paying a plumber to unclog the shower drain, in that she would pay me back the amount spent on the plumber whenst the job was complete. But my landlord--a very sweet senior citizen--is a bit on the aged side, and hasn't yet figured out that the name I used to use on my gmail isn't my ACTUAL name. My ACTUAL name I made sure to signature block at the end of each email I sent to her, but this was beyond her grasp for some reason. (It's on the lease, woman! You watched me sign it! You know my real name because I pay you every month with a check that HAS my name on it! Consternation factor set at max phaser output!)

BBB came about because my old gmail user name was Blory Bledding. Sweet Landlord Lady penned a check to "me" reimbursing me for the plumber's expenses, using my fake gmail name--Blory Bledding. So when I went to the bank to try to deposit the check, I ended up not only having to print out the series of emails related to the plumbing incident proving that I was in fact the guy who the check was made out to and ALSO the owner of the fake name "Blory Bledding" that she made the check to, but I had to go to the courthouse and acquire an "Also Known As" alias to the effect of Blory Bledding (for a nominal fee of $18; who knew it was so easy to get yourself an alias?) in order to get the check deposited in my new Blory Bledding bank account.

I figured I might as well write/publish under Blory B. Bledding, since I already have a bank account in that name and it shouldn't be too hard to get royalties redirected there. I've since had to change my gmail to a different name to appease the Google Gods, but BBB will inevitably be my pseudonym for when/if I get this long-overworked zombie novel published.

Um. Liam. I apologize for the sixty-two paragraphs response to my Introduction. My hands get rum-fingers after a while and they're nearly impossible to stop, like the time I wrote Camelbak (TM) to tell them one drunken night how shitty I thought their product was and ended up getting free shit for my troubles. I will endeavor to make the forthcoming responses to responses more succinct.

Boom goes the dynamite.

DrSkitz

Hi Dr. Tripple-B,

it's cool. I didn't know that using pseudonyms or false names is such a complicated thing in the US ... But, hack, why would it be any different over there then it is here in Germany? Yeah, well ... :)

The writer's lounge you will find here:
http://www.zombiepodcast.com/forum/f...riter-s-Lounge

edit: I just happened to notice that this particular forum-area is only available, if you are logged on the forum; while you are offline, it is not accessible. /edit

edit2: what Osiris says. /edit

But I am sorry to tell you that I do not have any idea about anyone here who writes or produces stuff about zombies. I am on a SciFi project currently; and this does not involve any one zombie or creature from horror-tales ...

All the best!
Liam

It's unfortunate, but that particular lounge is unavailable to regular users. It is reserved for the site's bloggers and fan fiction writers only.


Also, welcome.

Ho There all,
I finally decided to make an account here.
I was given the first season of the show as a gift last year and tore through it over and over 3 times.
I am trying to find more seasons, but I am not a "tech-savvy" person and have trouble tracking it down.
Also, I though that it may be cool to meet people who share an interest in this show who may live near me.
