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 583 recorded Wednesday April 13th, 2022.

It's Wednesday, it absolutely is Wednesday, and if you recall, I told everyone on Monday that we'd be recording Wednesday instead of Thursday, and the people came through Jason.

The people do come through. Our listeners are the best listeners that a podcast could have.

It's very true. You know, one last day to send in the feedback, and we got just as much as usual, and maybe more, so we have plenty to go through here, and I'm very very happy about that.

The reason we have to do it a day early is just because this is a long weekend coming up, and I am going out of town for a couple of days, leaving early Friday morning, and I just didn't think we'd be able to get organized to do the podcast Thursday night, right before we have to leave.

Plus, I'm actually going somewhere separate from my wife, which is not a big deal. She happens to be going to somewhere to visit a friend, like a girls thing, and I'm taking the kids somewhere else.

So she'll be gone already tomorrow night, which kind of makes recording a little tricky as well. So I couldn't do it tomorrow. Here we are on a Wednesday doing it tonight. So thanks everyone for tuning in logistical adjustments.

It's what it is. It's exactly what it is. Sometimes those are necessary.

All right, well, we are going to talk about all the feedback that you find listeners sent in for season 11 episode 16 acts of God.

But first, the number of millions of viewers for this one was 1.61 million, which is less than last week. So I don't think people care about mid-season finalies anymore, Jason.

I can't imagine why they would.

If they ever did, you know, exactly, but it's down. I think it's 600,000, 700,000 something like that.

Usually these kind of episodes cause a little bump because people are like, ooh, it's the last one for a while. Maybe I should watch it, but not in this case.

Yeah, the landscape's changing.

Oh, yeah, people just do not consume any other way they used to.

No, they don't. They don't. But what can you do? Anyways, 1.61 million for acts of God.

And we got lots of feedback. So let's dive right in.

Listen to our feedback.

All right, a quick reminder to everyone that I do often edit your calls, mostly calls occasionally emails.

But I do edit calls a little bit. I'm saying that just because there's some new people.

And if anyone has forgotten or whatever, sometimes I do it for timing.
