Introduce Yourself!

[Witch_Doctor]

Hello from Ashland, Kentucky! A place where very few (if any) know exists.

Little about me. Merlin1274 convince me to come here and say "HI" so...blame him.

I am a gunsmith, for the love of guns and for the pennies.

I am typically not a fan of anything "zombie," I'm not even a fan of the Walking Dead, but i do love this. Especially while working around my shop or reloading ammunition.

A gunsmith could come in handy after Z-day. Welcome to the forum.

Hi everyone!

My name is Mandy, and I was born and raised in Pismo Beach, CA. I moved to Denver, CO in 2007. I work as a facilities specialist. I send people to fix issues in my companies stores all over the USA. My prior position was better setting up all security systems in all the stores. My mom has always been into horror films and the science fiction channel. I pretty much just like the walking dead and this. I have never even listened to a podcast before this. I'm only on chapter 12, but I love it!

Just saying Hi. I have been listening forever and just made an account after the last episode. I posted a comment there first so I guess I did this backwards but either way!! HELLO ALL!!!

My name is Tony from deep down da bayou in Addis LA. Just happened across your podcast and listened to all 3 seasons in about 2 days!!! Can't wait for the new season. Lizzy sounds hot - makes sense since the voice talent working with her is hot. The Saul - Lizzy relationship annoyed me at first / now it's the most emotional story line. The writing got better as the show progressed. Well done!

Welcome to all the fun, Unit!

I used to work regularly up near Ogden at Hill Air Force Base. It's been a while but do recall how awesome the area was for getting outdoors and doing stuff. Really loved it in the summer when we could go climbing and hiking. I recall some great places to get craft beer in that area back in the 90's (they didn't call it craft then, of course).

Nice! My brother used to be stationed at Hill. He still works up in Ogden at Impact Guns now. I used to live in Idaho before Utah, pretty much all of the mountain states are one big playground for the outdoor enthusiast. I love taking the family hiking and camping. Plenty of places to fish and hunt. Rafting, snowboarding, backpacking, climbing, there is a bit of everything for sure.

I am not a drinker myself but the craft beer is a pretty big deal for sure (though I think it was even bigger in Boise, ID. I have a few friends who brew up there).

What took you to SC?

I've always been from SC. Worked out in UT as part of a project when I did DoD contracting. A whole different phase of my life....

Haven't spent much time in ID but had some coworkers at another job who went there regularly to work with clients. They loved it except for when it was deep winter time....

My name is James. I found 'We're Alive' through another podcast. I heard the host of the other podcast mention how awesome it was and later decided to check it out. That was two months ago. Before that, I had never heard of the show. I absolutely love it.

Now, about me. I'm 41 and have lived in the Charlotte area for about eight years. I'm originally from a small steel town in Ohio that sits along the Ohio river. Yes, and it is a weird town, but not as weird as 'Hemlock Grove,' but similar. For those of you who don't know, 'Hemlock Grove' is an Eli Roth/Netflix production and is worth checking out. I currently work in a dungeon underneath the west end of the city. That's all I can really say about that, but hey, the pay is decent and so are the benefits. Its a job. Anyway, I'm a huge horror fan, but I'm also a huge fan of sci-fi and fantasy. But since this forum is about 'We're Alive,' I will stick with horror.

I've been a horror fan ever since I saw Vincent Price in 'House of Wax' on late night television at the age of five. I will admit, I've seen quite a bit of horror films through the years, from the worst B films to the top premium horror and everything in between. And with the advent of Netflix, I'm still getting caught up. I will say that throughout the 80s, I saw most of the major horror films either in the cinema or when they first hit VHS.

I was introduced to my first zombie film in 1984. My brother-in-law rented George A. Romero's 'Dawn of the Dead.' I was twelve and it scared the crap out of me, but I loved it and couldn't stop watching. I'd never seen gore like that in a film until then. That one hooked me, and got me interested in the zombie genre. Later that year, I went with my oldest brother and saw 'Return of the Living Dead' at the theater. Again, that one scared the crap out of me, but I kept going back for more. It was then, I knew how much of a dedicated zombie horror fan I was. I couldn't get enough zombie films. I had become part of the 'Romero' zombie culture when it began its ascent to popularity throughout the eighties and beyond.

Now, the current era blows my mind. I never thought the zombie culture would be so huge. I think its great! Some of the zombie/Romero purists hate it, but I think its awesome. I love 'The Walking Dead' and think its still one of the best shows on television. Who would have ever thought a zombie show would be so monumental?

Now, that brings me to 'We're Alive.' I can't say enough about how awesome this show is. And hey, it started before 'The Walking Dead.' Hence, another reason 'We're Alive' blew me away. I love its originality,concepts,writing,actors, and everything else in between. There are ideas and concepts brought to light in the show that are such a cool departure from the typical zombie film or series. This show and others like it (and I mean audio dramas) are cool because they hearken back to the days of the old radio shows of my grandparents' and great grandparents' era. Its great that we can bring that form of entertain back through a new medium. Look, I could go on and on. My point is, is that I'm thrilled to be here, and I can't get enough of the show. Great job guys!!

By the way, I think it gives some competition to 'The Walking Dead.' Does anyone agree? Also, has there been any talk about it being made into a television production? I think it would be a great show. Just curious.

I've said my piece and look forward to being part of this community.
