A disaster? Do it right now. 8-88-4-1-744. Here we go. Yes, indeed. another edition of Talking Walking Dead. Wow. What a difference a week makes.

Joining me on Talking Walking Dead here on the Blaze Radio Network, Jeff Fisher Show podcast, Aaron Hernandez. Aaron, wow. And they devoted an hour and a half to the episode. Right. And it was a great hour and a half. It was a fantastic hour and a half of Walking Dead television. However, we have two things left in the wind, right? I mean, we're still waiting to find out a couple of things what's going on.

And that's just left out there. We're left out there wondering if Glenn is really dead. We're left out there wondering if Rick is how Rick, if he can get out of being stuck in the Winnebago. we're left wondering what how the herd is being is being headed out we're left wondering Alexandria what's going on back there we saw Morgan the end of the episode come out of a house with a hostage from one of the attackers of Alexandria and then it looked like he took off running we don't know where so I mean it was other than that it was fine A lot of cliffhangers

But if you listen carefully To the end of the episode When Morgan starts running He's running towards Rick You hear Rick's voice In the background And he starts running towards that So

Shut up Yeah listen to it Listen to it carefully All right I'm going back Yeah listen to it I'm gonna have to turn it up Because you know There are some decibels I don't hear

And Rick may be one of them Far away He'd already be dead if I was with him Okay, I'll go. That's very possible. But anyway, let's get to this episode. This is a prime example, this episode, of showing what happened to Morgan after Rick left and bringing him up to today while we know everything that our tribe was doing during all this time. And realizing another character.

that we fell in love with early because of his actions and then we kind of got into it and thought he'd lost it and went crazy and so we thought okay he's just gone and yet during that time he was doing all of this from last night's episode it was really good

and it's an example of what the new Walking Dead has not done and that is just give us a character to love yeah I mean the way they developed the characters for anybody that's not familiar with the original work not familiar

with the comic book it's just so great like you don't you don't need to be a comic book nerd to get into this series no you do not which is the best thing ever

and but the way they develop everybody in this series is Walking Dead it's great and I mean the amount of attention they gave to Morgan and his episode

was so well worth it really good yeah I was actually very surprised yet happy at the end Yeah, and some people were complaining that it's kind of screwed up the pace of the season. I don't think so at all. Grant the fact that the first couple episodes have been really, you know, full steam ahead,

I think this was needed to kind of give a little break from last episode, last last episode, with, you know, the possible death of Glenn or the death of Glenn. We don't really know. Right. I think we're all still hoping that he is alive. Yeah, I think he's alive. Aren't we? I mean, we're still hearting that, that he is, that he's laying under the, the wreckage of walkers and alive. Yeah, he's definitely alive. I think, I think they ate Nicholas.

Right. And then, like, he's laying there in the wreckage, which, you know, I mean, he's carried wreckage before and survived. So, I mean, we, we know that it can be done. And that's why Michone used to have her slaves so that she was in the scent of the walkers. the real walkers would leave her alone. Yeah, I mean, it's a tactic that the group knows how to use, and I think this is definitely going to be something that Glenn will be using here in this situation. And you're right. I don't think that it slowed the series down at all. Not at all.

I think it made A, it made you want and really start dreaming about what happened to the others, what's going on with the others. And you realized that we know that more. was struggling with killing these people and especially since he came back and got hooked up with us again at Alexandria. And now we know why. And we also know that he can, he's not, at least we don't think, working against us, which we kind of thought might be the case. Yeah. He's struggling with, he's just struggling with the world the way it is and still being alive and going through what he went through.

while our guys were going through what they went through. I thought it was fascinating. It was a beautiful episode. The way that they did it, I liked how they went all the way back to the clear episode, explaining the entire clear, because they left that kind of hanging. Yes, they did. And I liked how they came back to it and really was like, this is what he's doing. This is why, you know, he's gone a little bit off the rails.

You know what I mean? Like he was giving you that full metal jacket. it through the eyebrow look, you know what I mean? So he was definitely lost it. He was freaking out a bit. But you kind of see why and what the reason was about it. And then when he runs into Eastman, who's played by John Carroll Lynch, who does an incredible job. What a, I love so much of his work.

What is his real name? John Carroll Lynch? Yeah, of course. I mean, who doesn't know John Carroll Lynch? He's stupid. Stupid of me, not John Carroll Lynch. I mean, he's fantastic. He's done so much great work.

Yeah, and you never think... Yeah, I mean, he's not John Carroll Lynch starring in. Yeah. But he's there. He's always part of something. He's a great actor. And he's right now in American Horror Story, which he placed the total opposite of the, like,

lovable, like hippie in this episode. He's like this crazy homicidal maniac. But it was really interesting to see his character, you know his way of looking at the world in this you know mess and it was such a it was such a you know different vibe and I really liked how they did it like the whole fact that he was making goat cheese and like you know being a hipster eating his veggies and going well he wasn't so you know at that time when Morgan was with him it wasn't as far along into the end of times you know this was way before Alexandria.

I mean, during this time, I don't even think that Rick was at the prison. Maybe, maybe at the prison. I think they were still at the farm. No, this was if you... That's right, because they ended it with him going to Terminus. So we'd already gone, it was pre-terminus. All that time was pre-terminus. Right. You're right.

But it was just fascinating to see that he, and then we got to hear his story. We fell in love with him. Another character we fell in love with because his story was, you know, then he went back into the city and it was end of the world. And he was like, he had to come back. Yeah. I mean, it was amazing. And the thing that I really liked about the way that they told his story was that he was a prison psychologist and then he has this interaction with this psychopath who kills his family. Right. And then in return

does a horrible, horrible act. But what I thought was amazing about it was that he goes and turns himself in, but the world's already gone. And now his horrendous act is the norm in this world. This is what people do before lunch every day. You know what I mean? If they can even get lunch, right? So it was just really interesting to see his dynamic with the old world, the new world, and the way they're facing it together, him and Morgan.

Yeah, it was really fascinating how they did that. And I, you know, while I want to let's go and find, find out what's going on. Let's get our crew and find out what we're doing. It was great to have this background on Morgan. No question. No question. So now the question is, where do we go?

You know, we still have, right? I mean, we still have Rick at the Winnebago. Yes. Right? We've got, we've got, we're back at Alexandria. Morgan is running just somewhere after Alexandria because they won Alexandria right now. the crew that came in to take it over didn't take it over right i mean the wolves yeah yeah the people who came in with bad teeth uh you know that's why i'm so happy and fortunate that

at least our crew has good uh dental hygiene and they're british which is which is kind of surprising it is right right how many oh my gosh there's like three or four of them working on this cast that are british drives me insane drives me i know i know i heard an interview with him not long ago in real life Morgan. Yeah, Lenny James. I was like, oh my gosh, you've got to be. I must walk away from the television. I was so angry.

No, that's not true. But I was just surprised. It just threw me off guard. I was like, oh, my gosh. And you know, what's funny is that when Americans go and try to sound British, it sounds not right. It's awful. But when British people come to the U.S.

and want to sound like badass Americans, it works. How is that possible? I don't know. They started the country. Right? Don't bring me down with that. Don't bring me down with that. We're all related to the English, but no, we're not.

Anyway, it is fascinating that our group does have good dental hygiene. Very important. Very, very important. They're crushing it. Yeah. I mean, no matter what, we've got to make sure. that we enhance our load with tooth-based and toothbrushes. Okay?

Does no matter where we're at, we need to brush. Very simple. It's a simple code. I think Rick has that. I don't know that he's ever said it out loud, but he does have it. So what happens now? What happens now? Does Rick survive, of course.

I mean, he's got to get out of the Winnebago, right? Well, yeah, I think he settled that up. Does it start? Does it start? Does it, I mean, does he, I mean, what happens? to Rick. We've got the herd coming in, still trucking away, right, with Darrell leading the herd. Yeah. And we've got, and we've got the city trying to hold forts. I mean, it's, it's tough front going on right now. Yeah, man, it's hard, it's hard to be in the apocalypse.

The thing that I really like, though, about the way the episode started was basically he's telling this wolf, you know, his story. way that they end it with him locking the door that was left open for him with with Eastman with John Conradigious character i thought that was interesting because it shows you that Morgan wants the same outcome as as eastman right like the same vision for the world uh but i think he Morgan also realizes that it that's a problematic um vision to to get you know it's very it's going to be very hard, and especially with this new group that is so far gone, I think he's going to have to compromise somewhere. Oh, yeah, because he's struggling between Eastman and Rick.

Yeah. And he knows that Rick has, he's, Morgan has been very fortunate. I mean, he's had Rick and Eastman, you know, take care of him and help him through this already. So he's got, I mean, he's got both of that going for him strong. and both men were strong leaders and yet had little different visions. Eastman may have gotten to where Rick is had he lived longer. Really? You think so? I mean, it's tough.

You know, I realize I have come to the planes where all life matters. Yeah, okay, you know, right, I got it. But these people are already dead, bro. Okay? I don't know that we count walkers as life. Yeah. Do we? I mean, obviously some people do, but I would not count that as life.

No, well, they were definitely killing a bunch of them, but I think they mean even evil people. I think that was the whole message of it. I mean, he wasn't the only reason he was killing those walkers is because they were coming up on, you know, his goat. Hey, man, a man in a goat. That's a powerful thing. Yes, it is.

And I thought, so many more jokes with that, but I'm letting him go. I thought for sure that it was going to be him eating the goat when we came back, when Morgan came. back. For some reason, I just thought, oh, no, he probably got bid, and now he's turned and he's eating his own goat. You know what I mean? Oh, that would have been rough. Right. That would have been heartbreaking. Right. And I thought for sure that's what they were going to do. I mean, that's perfect walking dead. That is very perfect. That's perfect. That's perfect walking dead,

but they didn't do it. They gave you the, they gave you the one more out of going to Clearville and having them get bit. And I thought that I was, although I appreciated that, the bite and him saving Morgan, I kind of thought maybe that was a little weird because it seemed to me that he would have just come up and stabbed him with his stick instead of pushing him away in the middle. Yeah, or you could just pull him back. You know what I mean? That guy was like, you can't just pull him out of the way?

I would, it would just seem like he would have just come up and speared him in the head. Yeah. You know what I mean? Instead of jumped into the middle and stuff. So I was kind of a little disappointed with how he got bit. true, but it was very poetic. It was. I know it was. I got it. And I understand why they did it like that. I mean, I get it, but I just didn't feel right to me. That's all. I would have, I would have

much rather had Morgan come back and have him eating his goat. Okay. So, wow, an hour and a half of that. And then next week we start all over again. So good luck. Anything else? Anything, any words of wisdom? Don't eat the goat? All right, thanks for listening. Talking Walking Dead. Same time next week. Look for the down road.
