This is The Talking Dead, a podcast dedicated to the AMC TV show The Walking Dead.

Hi, my name is Jason, and my name is Chris, and this is The Talking Dead episode number 549 recorded Saturday, September 25th, 2021.

It is indeed a rare Saturday recording this week. There is a very good reason for that, which some of you may already know.

And that's because you had a little accident.

Accident Jason, but we're going to talk about it more after the podcast.

Yeah, I was taking off the garbage. I took a header into my retaining wall, ended up going to the hospital for a whole bunch of staples.

Because they use staples because, you know, why not? So yeah, recording on Thursday night was not a thing. And then last night was also not a thing. So tonight is a thing.

All right, well, tonight's a thing. So we'll talk about that a little bit more. We have two reasons to do an after hours segment on this podcast. So it's been a little while since we've done that. And I'm looking forward to both of them.

So let's, let's, you know, we'll get to that later. What we are here to do, of course, on this episode is our season 11 episode of five listener feedback for the walkup dead.

Awesome.

And as always, though, I do want to start really quick by just pointing out the viewership numbers for the episode out of the ashes. It was 1.91 million. So I'll put tiny little bit.

Tiny, teeny tiny bit. Tiny bit. Yep. So that's, you know, a good sign, but pretty much holding steady. All right. In that case, without further ado, let's get into listener feedback.

Listener feedback.

And we are going to start with a call from Owen. So Owen, kick us off.

Afternoon, Chris and Jason, there's Owen from Leeds, England, it calling from a sunny, balmy, lovely 21 degree, Celsius leads. It's a lovely day.

And I've just watched a very good episode. I thought season five, episode five. I've started.

I enjoyed it. It was fun. You know, ups, downs. Oh, happy.

Not so happy for some, but I thought it was just one of those really good classic episodes where I just enjoyed it.

I just watched it with a smile on my face. I'm about to watch it for a second time now.

I think everything that's happening in the Commonwealth is very interesting. It's about time we saw more of it.

And I feel like it's living up to the expectations.

I, I don't trust you, Michael 100%. I don't know why. I don't know why, but I just think her brother is going to weasel his way into her mind.
