This is the Talking Dead, a podcast dedicated to the AMC TV show The Walking Dead. Hi there everybody my name is Chris and my name is Jason and this is the talking dead

number 396 recorded on Monday October the 8th 2018

welcome to the program everyone it is indeed a Monday not Tuesday. We're making an

exception to the new schedule this week because for well for two reasons

number one today is a holiday in Canada it Thanksgiving. So we all had the day off, which meant lots of free time to watch the episode and record a podcast about it.

That's the thinking. Yeah. Well, that's exactly. It worked out for me. I don't know about for you, but you're here.

So very busy day.

Happy Thanksgiving, Christopher.

Thanks, man.

Thanks, you too. And happy Thanksgiving to all the Canadians around the world celebrating Thanksgiving today.

And also because, you know, it's the season premiere and we're just anxious to get going,

raring to get going, if, in a way, and so the holiday was just kind of a bonus that gave us the time to get it out today

instead of tomorrow so here we are on a Monday recording and we are going to talk about the new season of the walking dead.

So with that in mind I just wanted to welcome back everyone who is back listening.

I know there are a number of listeners that don't stick with us through the off season

either because they don't watch Fear The Walking Dead, which is mostly what we cover when Walking Dead's not on.

Or they just move on to other things and kind of tune in just when the main show is running.

So welcome back to all you guys.

I'm, we're, you know, super happy to have you back, glad you're here.

And if you're a new listener, and you're just discovering us now, welcome also.

So, glad to have you guys on board too.

It's always wonderful to have new
