In case you missed it, Dave was interviewed by On the Side (OTS) Podcast (@user-835819392), which revolves around our side passions (Squawking Dead being the primary focus). Have a listen! https://soundcloud.com/user-835819392/ep-40-david-cameo* Dave & Carol have never butted heads like this: Loving/Hating The Clarks* #TheVultures weren't much of an enemy: there's gotta be a bigger story* All we are saying is give Strand a chance: After #AllOutWar, we finally understand him. Breaking down his character growth* I think the writers underestimated the impact of our new characters #JohnDorie, #Althea, and Naomi* Character background & development on #TWD vs #FearTWD. We wouldn't be able to appreciate the latter series as much without the former* Side Note: #JeffreyDeanMorgan & #NormanReedus are next-farm neighbors, with Norman talking his ear off. Maybe he'll finally get to do more of that on #TWDseason9* WTF made #VictorStrand, #AliciaClark, and #LucianaGalvez Terminators? Sympathizing with Mel* Discussing the meaning behind the opening (clips from "Laura"), John's fate, and more Althea* If John Dorie dies, we riot: He is everything we aspire to be (like #RickGrimes, at the start of #TheWalkingDead)* A Firefight straight out of Star Wars: struggling to understand Alicia's ire towards Naomi and Mel's underestimation of our group's ferocity* #FearTheWalkingDead characters(vs #WalkingDead): "heros" & "villains" are way more nuanced (not clear-cut "Good" & "Evil")* "Alicia's space gun": #FTWD invested in weapons-handling and authenticity (where #TWD stopped, in latter seasons #SprayandPray)* The Naomi dilemma: how long was she with The Vultures and what did she do?* Luciana pointing a gun at Charlie: discussing children in the apocalypse and what saving Charlie means for the group's future* #MorganJones makes Althea part of the story* #MadisonClark, like #NickClark, also admits that she is a better person inside the walls* Discussing Charlie's role in the stadium's demise and Ennis' possible nefariousness* Madison's justification for saving Mel only makes sense, given their perseverance* Mel received the same death-to-life transition from Present to Past as Nick did. Also, discussing his lack of villainy* Madison Magical Mallet: instead of using it to destroy, she constructs.* The parents are talking: Naomi calls Madison out on reverting* Should they have abandoned The Diamond? Discussing the Vulture Brothers* Alicia's last words, as the Land Rover is surrounded* Nick gives Madison her dues: It's not the stadium that makes him a better person, but how she shows him the way* Ennis & Mel MUST be related to Simon* Madison's fate, "you never see the bad stuff coming," but she may not be dead and the writers will flip the script* Sneak Peeks: Madison has nothing left to lose (and the scene color isn't clear, past or present?); Firefight in the stadium; Althea is the one on camera, this time (Althea backstory episode)* John Dorie looks like #McCreeOverwatch and those crew nerds totally play #Overwatch* Sneak Peek: Althea is involved in the firefight and even provides some comic relief* SWAT tanks, Garbage trucks, and finger-blaster missiles* Sneak Peeks: Alicia & Morgan confront each other, which will be VERY interesting; Mel & Charlie's Land Rover get-away - how did they get it?; Alicia's freak-out towards Althea - we saw this before; Madison bars the doors and seeks out others...?* #TalkingDead Sneak Peek: John apologizes for nothing - Morgan admits that their friendship brought him out of his funk. Althea clears a path to get meds* #ChristianSerratos / #Rosita may not be in #TWDseason9* Subscribe to our #YouTube channel! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCa6PMRa1C52wCE5PVhXT6Qg--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/squawkingdead/message
