Reposted from Yellowjackets wtf?, which you can find and subscribe to at: yellowjacketswtf.com — Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson have said from the start that Yellowjackets was partly inspired by Lord of the Flies, the tale of a bunch of young schoolboys stranded on an island after a plane crash, and how they managed. And now we have a brilliantly beautiful and disturbing new four-episode adaptation by the BBC (on Netflix in the U.S.), and so Kasi, Kara, and Jason are here to talk it through.

Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.Marvel Studios appears to have found the leader of its new mutant team, as Deadline reported last week that Heartstopper and Warfare star Kit Connor has landed the role of Scott Summers, better known as Cyclops, in the future MCU X-Men film. Sources say Connor went through much the same process as Samara Weaving, who was attached as Emma Frost the week prior, meeting with Schreier and Marvel president Kevin Feige alongside a group of candidates who tested after the July 4th holiday before the studio settled on him. Neither Marvel nor Connor has confirmed the casting, and the film, written by Beef creator Lee Sung Jin and The Bear co-creator Joanna Calo, still has no release date. Cyclops has been played on screen before by James Marsden and Tye Sheridan, with Marsden set to reprise the role in December's Avengers: Doomsday. Sony and Marvel Studios' Spider-Man: Brand New Day crossed the one-billion-dollar mark overseas in just twelve days of release, making it the second-fastest film ever to reach that number abroad behind Avengers: Endgame. The Destin Daniel Cretton film now stands at $1.67 billion worldwide, split between $654.3 million domestically and $1.013 billion internationally, which makes it the twelfth highest-grossing movie of all time and only the sixteenth ever to clear a billion in foreign markets alone. Universal had a milestone of its own to celebrate, as Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey passed $1.1 billion worldwide to become the highest-grossing film of his career ahead of The Dark Knight Rises, while also becoming the biggest IMAX release ever with $289 million, and it still has China to open on Friday. James Gunn spent part of a Threads session last week putting down one of the most persistent rumors surrounding Matt Reeves' Batman trilogy, telling a fan who asked whether The Batman Part III was being filmed simultaneously with Part II simply, “I can deny.” The theory had gained steam over years of delays, most recently when a redesigned Part II logo appeared to work a Roman numeral III into the artwork, and it offered fans a tidy explanation for why the sequel has taken so long to arrive. In reality, Part II only began principal photography in London in June, and Warner Bros. has already pushed the film from October 2027 to February 18, 2028. Sony and Nintendo's live-action The Legend of Zelda has cast Australian actor Uli Latukefu as Ganondorf under a multi-picture deal, with Severance's Dichen Lachman playing Impa and The Handmaid's Tale's Yvonne Strahovski reported as a queen character. The late Sam Neill also filmed an undisclosed role before his death on July 13, marking one of the final screen performances of his career.Gareth Edwards has exited Universal and Amblin's untitled Jurassic World Rebirth sequel over creative differences, with the studios now searching for a replacement; David Koepp's script is finished and Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali and Jonathan Bailey are all still expected back for a 2027 shoot.A24 released the full trailer for Primetime, the Lance Oppenheim drama that Robert Pattinson produces and stars in as To Catch a Predator host Chris Hansen, in theaters September 25.Lionsgate has confirmed that Michael 2 is targeting a production start toward the end of this year or in early 2027, with the sequel to this year's Michael Jackson biopic aiming for a 2028 release.Lionsgate is also developing a new Leprechaun film written by horror veterans Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan, reviving a franchise that ran eight movies between 1993 and 2018.Nicholas Hoult has been cast in season 2 of HBO's Harry Potter series as Gilderoy Lockhart, a major character in The Chamber of Secrets that was portrayed by Kenneth Branagh in the 2002 film adaptation.

Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — Yes, this show is about members of the Green Lantern Corps, an intergalactic peacekeeping force whose members wear rings that give them powers (and we love that). But there's a lot more about this series that has us intrigued. Like, why is it also apparently a gritty murder mystery set in rural Nebraska? And what does it mean that HBO, the king of prestige TV, picked it up, with three legendary writers at the helm: Chris Mundy (Ozark), Damon Lindelof (LOST), and Tom King (The Vision)? That's more than enough to have us—Jason, Kirk, and Jim—super excited for Lanterns. Join us for a spoiler-lite introduction to the series, followed by a more detailed dive into the trailer that recently debuted at Comic-Con. Mentioned: EW interviews Lanterns showrunner Chris Mundy: https://ew.com/lanterns-dc-space-cops-drama-dueling-timelines-exclusive-11971022 Next up on Casting Light: The Lanterns series premiere, on HBO Sunday, August 16!

Hayley Severance, Deputy Vice President, Global Biological Policy and Programs, Nuclear Threat Initiative (NTI), walks us through the newly launched Africa Health Security Index (AHSI): its origin and purpose; its key African and other partners; what it reveals about significant progress in Africa since 2021 (surveillance, countermeasures) and what it reveals about glaring problems (biosafety/biosecurity, finance). The challenge now is to get the AHSI in front of senior African decision makers, and to engage with the Trump administration, among others, at this moment when the Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak is raging.

Featured Film: Severance Opening Titles Recreated in Portal by Brian KissigThis episode explores an exceptional reinterpretation of the title sequence from Severance, recreated using Portal assets in Unreal Engine and Cinema 4D. Rather than simply assessing the technical achievement, the discussion develops into a broader conversation about adaptation, symbolism, machinima as an artistic practice, and the relationship between filmmaking and game-making.Phil introduces the film as a painstaking recreation of the Severance opening titles, explaining that although it uses Portal assets, it extends well beyond simple gameplay capture. He highlights the remarkable fluid simulations, sophisticated editing, and careful adaptation of the original sequence's symbolism into the Portal universe, arguing that the work becomes an interpretation rather than a straightforward imitation.Ricky praises the craftsmanship and recognises it as an example of machinima at its highest technical level, while also reflecting on his personal preference for films that retain more visible traces of the game's constraints. He suggests that technical perfection can sometimes lose the handcrafted qualities that give traditional machinima its distinctive charm.Tracy provides an extended analysis by first examining the original Severance title sequence. She argues that it functions as a psychological and symbolic introduction to the series rather than a conventional credit sequence, exploring themes of fractured identity, loss of agency, corporate control and the uncanny through recurring visual metaphors including looping architecture, duplicated identities and the mysterious black fluid.Building from this analysis, Tracy argues that Brian Kissig's recreation does considerably more than reproduce the original. By replacing the psychological architecture of Severance with the systemic logic of Portal, the film transforms the central metaphor. Portal's mechanics become a new visual language through which bureaucracy, institutional power, identity and labour are explored. She argues that the Companion Cube, portals themselves and Aperture Science all deepen the thematic reading rather than simply referencing the game. She concludes that the filmmaker demonstrates how games can function as conceptual systems capable of generating entirely new meanings.Damien echoes this reading, explaining that after watching the original sequence he appreciated just how carefully the recreation preserved the structure while allowing Portal to reinterpret its ideas. The discussion also convinces him to move Severance higher on his viewing list.The conversation concludes by broadening into a reflection on machinima itself. The panel discusses the distinction between filmmaker-led machinima and game-native machinima, debating how creative limitations influence artistic practice. Ricky, Phil and Damien argue that technical constraints often stimulate creativity rather than restrict it, and that the problem-solving mindset developed through machinima translates into wider creative practice and filmmaking.Key Timestamps01:20 Phil introduces the featured film and explains its relationship to Severance and Portal.05:00 Ricky reflects on the film's technical perfection versus the appeal of traditional handcrafted machinima.07:10 Tracy begins an in-depth analysis of the original Severance title sequence and its symbolism.13:40 Analysis shifts to Brian Kissig's Portal recreation and how it transforms the original's meaning.16:55 Discussion of Portal as a metaphor for institutional systems, identity and bureaucracy.20:00 Brian Kissig's filmmaking background and why the recreation succeeds artistically.22:30 Damien compares the recreation with the original and discusses its effectiveness.24:10 Phil discusses looping as a structural and musical metaphor in Severance.24:45 Broader discussion on filmmaker machinima versus game-based machinima.27:15 Conversation turns to creativity, artistic limitations and the role of technical constraints.30:00 Final reflections on how machinima develops creative problem-solving beyond filmmaking.Credits Co-hosts: Phil Rice, Ricky Grove, Tracy Harwood, Damien ValentineEditor/Producer: Phil RiceMusic: Phil Rice & Suno AI

What employers should know about key developments this week: Severance Agreement Overhaul: The No Severance Ultimatums Act, awaiting Governor Kathy Hochul's signature, would extend a 21-day review period plus a seven-day revocation period to all employees and require severance agreements to explicitly state that the employee has the right to consult counsel. The legislation would take effect immediately upon signature. Trapped at Work Act Amendments: On December 19, 2026, New York's ban on "stay or pay" promissory notes takes effect. The Trapped at Work Act carves out financial bonuses and wage advances and adds new conditions for tuition repayment agreements. New York joins California and Connecticut in banning certain promissory notes. Earned Safe and Sick Time Act Update: Amended Earned Safe and Sick Time Act rules, now in effect for New York City employers, require 32 hours of unpaid protected time off immediately upon hire and set new obligations for employers that use electronic systems to track sick leave balances for departing employees. In this episode of Employment Law This Week®, Epstein Becker Green attorney Drew C. Ambrose discusses the No Severance Ultimatums Act and what employers should be doing now to prepare their severance agreements ahead of the governor's signature. - Visit our site for this week's video edition and more news: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw442 Sign up for notifications: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw-subscribe Visit https://www.EmploymentLawThisWeek.com - Epstein Becker Green is a national law firm focused on health care and life sciences; employment, labor, and workforce management; and litigation and business disputes.

Today's episode is a little different. It's just me, going deep on something I've never fully unpacked before: what it's actually been like to write my first novel. I take you back to 2023, when I tried to sell a nonfiction book about the science of curiosity—and how both publishers I was in talks with pulled out of the auction the morning it was supposed to happen. I thought that was the end of my book-writing chapter. It wasn't. Fast forward to January of this year, one conversation with Michael turned into an idea for a psychological thriller (think Gone Girl meets Severance), and within three hours of posting a single Instagram video announcing it, a literary agency reached out wanting to represent me, before I'd written more than two pages! I get into why that happened, what it says about the power of a platform in 2026, and the very unglamorous reality of book proposals, 43 chapter summaries, and my own "fatal flaw" as a writer (spoiler: I can't write a messy first draft to save my life). But this episode isn't really about publishing logistics. It's about the strange split between the person you think you know from my videos—grounded, married, happy—and the darker, stranger stories I've always needed somewhere to put.

Send us Fan MailNonprofit workforce reduction planning requires far more than identifying positions and announcing layoffs. Casey Williams of Liebert Cassidy Whitmore explains how nonprofit leaders can restructure responsibly, reduce organizational risk, and preserve dignity throughout an extraordinarily difficult business decision.The process begins by defining the problem the organization is trying to solve. Is the nonprofit closing a program, reducing its budget by $1 million, responding to repeated deficits, or changing its operating model? Casey advises leaders to document that objective before discussing individual employees.“A reorganization is about solving a business problem,” she tells us. Performance concerns belong in performance management—not inside a reduction-in-force process.Casey also outlines how leadership teams can develop measurable selection criteria around positions rather than personalities. Seniority, experience, education, documented performance ratings, and other defined factors can support a more consistent decision. Vague judgments such as attitude, energy, or cultural fit may invite favoritism or unconscious bias.The conversation also examines important employment-law considerations. Casey explains that the federal WARN Act can require 60 days' notice when qualifying employers with approximately 100 or more employees conduct certain layoffs affecting 50 or more workers. State “mini-WARN” laws may establish lower thresholds; California, for example, can cover employers with 75 employees.Severance, release agreements, final pay, accrued vacation, benefits, property returns, internal communications, and individual meetings all require advance coordination. Employees covered by certain age-discrimination release rules may receive 21 days to consider an individual agreement, while qualifying group layoffs may require 45 days, followed by a seven-day revocation period.“Having the hard conversation actually is compassionate,” Casey says. Early planning gives leaders more room to communicate clearly, answer employees' immediate questions, and demonstrate the organization's values when those values are being watched most closely.This discussion offers business guidance for nonprofit executives, human resource professionals, finance leaders, department managers, and boards. Employment requirements vary by jurisdiction, so organizations should consult qualified legal counsel about their specific circumstances.Key Takeaways: • Define and document the business objective before discussing employees or positions.• Keep performance management separate from organizational restructuring.• Use consistent, measurable selection criteria wherever possible.• Review federal and state notification requirements early in the process.• Coordinate severance, final pay, benefits, technology, and communications before meetings begin.• Treat offboarding as a visible expression of organizational leadership and values.00:00:00 Nonprofit Workforce Changes Without the Drama00:01:29 Legal Support for Mission-Driven Organizations00:04:14 Define the Business Problem First00:05:18 Why Restructuring Cannot Replace Performance Management00:09:07 When Boards, Finance, and Leadership Become Involved00:10:58 Selecting Positions Using Objective Criteria00:14:20 Why Earlier Conversations Can Be More Compassionate00:16:54 WARN Act Notice and Employer Thresholds00:19:36 State Mini-WARN Laws and Lower Thresholds00:20:58 Severance, Benefits, and Release Agreements00:24:18 Special Rules Affecting Older Workers00:26:44 Building a Respectful Offboarding Process #NonprofitLayoffs #NonprofitManagement #TheNonprofitShowFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show
In this episode of our Cross-Border Catch-Up podcast series, Shirin Aboujawde (New York/London) and Lina Fernandez (Boston) break down Argentina's new labor modernization law, Law No. 27,802, which is generating significant debate among employers, unions, and social groups alike. The speakers cover the law's sweeping reforms, including changes to severance calculations and caps, new rules on working hours and vacation flexibility, the classification of gig platform workers as independent providers, and the creation of employer-side labor assistance funds. The speakers review what these changes mean for multinational employers operating in Argentina and what to watch for as implementing regulations are issued in the coming months.
The latest episode of The Chad & Cheese Podcast kicks off with hosts Joel Cheesman and Chad Sowash diving into a massive recap of the World Cup tournament, complete with a look at the spectacular multi-artist halftime show, light political jabs, a hilarious Taco Bell fast-food mishap, and a celebratory beer for a record-breaking Scottish runner. After sharing details on how you can score a free podcast t-shirt, the boys move straight into their high-stakes "Buy or Sell" segment, where they aggressively debate the business prospects of recent major industry acquisitions and funding rounds involving Signal Labs, BrassRing, Adzuna, JobLift, and the controversial candidate-pays model of Refer. The main events of the episode take an even sharper turn into major industry compliance, legal drama, and worker rights. First, Chad and Joel unleash a highly critical teardown of the brand-new terms of service rolling out from Indeed, exposing massive financial and legal implications for both employers and job seekers. Next, they tackle the legal spotlight hitting LinkedIn, debating whether a high-profile investigation by the Texas Attorney General is necessary platform accountability or just pure political theater. Finally, the hosts wrap up by throwing their support behind a massive internal worker movement at Google, analyzing whether a new 4,500-employee petition will actually force the tech giant's hand or simply stall out.

Opie rolls in hot from the beach, already revving up because his Long Island cable is freezing again even though they said they "FIXED IT". Then he unloads on Howard Stern cutting his people's severance in half while the King of All Media phones it in from one show a week. Ron chimes in, gems rain down (whatever the hell those are), Shakira's hips get Opie banned, Tom Brady looks dumb slapping Logan Paul, and somehow we end up talking explosive lettuce, aliens, and why nobody's answering Opie's DMs anymore. Classic Opie & Ron chaos. Enjoy the freeze-frames.

While we wait for Dead City S3, here's a repost of the Jeffrey Dean Morgan panel from Walker Stalker Con Atlanta 2016. This happened just a few days after S7E1 aired, so it was fresh in people's minds, and it was JDM's first convention appearance as Negan. One of my favorite panels ever. JDM slips in and out of character, and quickly wins the crowd over. Let's see if he'll do the same for you :) We're also joined by Greg Nicotero, who directed the S7 premiere and gives a lot of great info on the thinking and logistics behind it. Enjoying the rewatch?

Witnessing adaptation is one of our great pleasures. How does one transform an audio medium into a visual one? How will the podcast World Beyond Number, from Brennan Lee Mulligan, Erika Ishii, Aabria Iyengar, and Lou Wilson, expand into The Wizard, The Witch, and The Wild One, courtesy of comic storytellers Jadzia Axelrod and Sarah Webb? When the chance to ponder the thought arose with some of those involved, we jumped at it. There are only days left ot support Worlds Beyond Wonder: The Wizard, the Witch, and the Wild One via Kickstarter. As of this writing, it's already reached over $1.8 million. The book is happening and will be published through Skybound Entertainment. Join the party in confidence. We spoke with Brennan Lee Mulligan, Erika Ishii, and Lou Wilson about their love of comics and the delight they've discovered in watching Jadzia Axelrod and Sarah Webb bring their story to this medium. We relish the love evident in their play, found in every Worlds Beyond Number episode. We discuss nerdom not as a monolith, but as an endless pebbly beach. This episode was a fantastic surprise, but not as big a surprise as the email we recently received that threw our lives into turmoil (which is the topic of today's introduction). Friends, we've been through it. Thank goodness for our comic book pals.

No hard sell required with this one. Operation: Iron Coffin #1 is in shops today, courtesy of IDW Publishing. It's concocted by our new favorite comic book dynamic duo, Kenny Porter and Tyrell Cannon (with letterer Shawn Lee). In its pages, you'll see Bram Stoker's Dracula working for the Allies during World War II. Like a bomb, he's dropped from a plane upon a secret Nazi gold train. He lands in the caboose. He proceeds to slaughter his way toward the engine. Many losers are torn limb from limb. Folks have already compared its action to John Wick, but it's more like Game of Death smashed with Snowpiercer. As Dracula works his bloody way down the train, new foes present themselves, boss-level style, and each one represents a different mindset or philosophy. Porter and Cannon excel in the excessive bodily harm, but simmering beneath the violence is a powerful reckoning with the human experience and the darkest depths our species can plunge. In the last few years, we've spent a lot of time pondering vampires, mortals, and their relationship to the soul. How fun to have Kenny Porter and Tyrell Cannon on the podcast this week to discuss bloodsuckers, human monsters, evil, and capital E Evil. This is a full-spoilers conversation about Operation: Iron Coffin #1. Be warned. However, this is kind of an unspoilable book. Nothing we say in this podcast can rob the comic of its visual might. So, listen based on your own spoiler sensitivity. But, seriously, you should just grab the comic the next time you're in the shop. Follow Kenny Porter on Instagram and Bluesky. Follow Tyrell Cannon on Instagram and Bluesky.

Send us Fan Mail Your phone isn't just “distracting” you. It's competing for the most valuable resource you have: attention. And when that attention gets pulled apart day after day, the cost isn't only lost time, it's lost clarity, lost calm, and a quieter sense that you're no longer fully with your own life. We sit down with Jordan Miller to unpack what's actually happening underneath digital distraction and screen addiction. We challenge the idea that scattered focus is simply a discipline problem, and we name the bigger force at play: the attention economy, where apps, ads, and even modern work demands are designed to keep you engaged. Once you see attention as something that improves whatever it touches, you start treating it like you treat money and time: with care and choice. From there, we go deeper into the inner world. Using the show Severance as a striking metaphor, we explore how fractured attention can fragment identity, emotions, and stillness, and why reconnecting to a stable core matters. Jordan also shares an Eastern philosophy perspective on awareness as the centre of being, plus Taoist-inspired ways to practise presence without forcing it. If you've been feeling stretched thin, this is a reset. Subscribe, share this with someone who needs it, and leave a review.

There's so much weight to this episode, in different ways. It's absolutely landmark episode of The Walking Dead. And I didn't remember how much it was just Negan applying constant pressure to Rick, until he breaks. Yes, it's hard to watch, and I don't blame anyone who thought it was too much. And also I think for what it was, it was done so well. Lucy and I are so pleased to be joined by Ben for this one to help us do it justice. Of course Ben hosts this podcast for Dead City coverage, and I think it was a good balance of viewpoints among the three of us. Hope you enjoy! As we mentioned on the podcast, the rewatch will be on hiatus for awhile after this one. Sometime in the next two weeks I'll be joined by Chris of The Talking Dead podcast and Rich to cover the new Evil Dead movie, Evil Dead Burn, and then soon after, Alex and Ben will be on for Dead City S3!

It's fantastic when a comic gives you a jolt. Beast of Borikén, written by Julio Anta and illustrated by Daniel Irizarri, delivers a great prod, stimulating your brain to run numerous scenarios on and off the page. It's the story of a people who've witnessed so much monstrosity at the hands of invaders. It's a story of people finding strength in their neighbors, ancestors, and legends. The first issue is out now, from Dark Horse Comics and Tiny Onion, and we investigate it meaningfully with both storytellers. Set in Puerto Rico, the main character is Loli, an activist protesting an incoming resort, the face of which is yuppy CEO Simon Hunt, who is using every slippery trick in the book to break ground despite opposition. Loli is incensed and focused on stopping the overdevelopment of her ancestral lands, but is her fixation in part because she is avoiding processing a horrendous grief, since her father died alone in a hospital during Hurricane Maria? This week on the podcast, we speak with Julio Anta and Daniel Irizarri about Beast of Borikén, witnessing endless horror, and hope through collective action. We discuss the influence of The Creature from the Black Lagoon and the appeal of monsters. Also, what does it all have to do with Robocop 2? You'll have to make your way through the intro to understand all that. Beast of Borikén #1 is out now from Dark Horse Comics and Tiny Onion. It's written by Julio Anta, illustrated by Daniel Irizarri, colored by Patricio Delpeche, and lettered by Lucas Gattoni. Follow Julio Anta on Instagram and Bluesky.

No one is more surprised than we are. Frank Miller, the legendary comics maker behind Daredevil: Born Again, Ronin, Batman: Year One, Sin City, and The Dark Knight Returns, which celebrates its fortieth anniversary this year, joins us this week to discuss his career as he filtered it through his new memoir/self-help book, Push The Wall: My Life, Writing, Drawing, and The Art of Storytelling. His latest creation floored us. Broken into sixteen lessons, Push the Wall sees Frank Miller excavate his past to understand his pursuit of storytelling. He attempts to explain his rebellious nature and a need to throw himself against opposing forces, but in the process, reveals the awesome, unbeatable power of change. He treats the reader as his mentors did, like Neal Adams and Dick Giordano. Push the Wall works not only as motivation for the struggling artist, but also for the struggling human. The aggression and fascination for violence are present, but more importantly, Push the Wall contains a great softness or vulnerability. Frank Miller is not a creator who doubles down on past mistakes; he admits regret and offers encouragement to everyone who must fail to grow. We're beyond delighted to have Frank Miller on the podcast. We discuss how “The City” was the first to change him, why The Dark Knight Returns should not be the template for all Batman stories, and whether or not Robocop 2 is an essential ingredient in his vocation. Push the Wall: My Life, Writing, Drawing, and the Art of Storytelling arrives in bookstores everywhere on July 14th. Make sure you're following Frank Miller on Instagram and his website.

Employment attorney Ryan Stygar joins Nicole to hand us the playbook our employers hope they never find. He breaks down what "at-will employment" actually means and the exact moves to make the moment you get that dreaded out-of-nowhere email from HR. He also reveals everything that's negotiable in a severance package: the cash amount, COBRA coverage, equity vesting schedules, and non-disparagement clauses, and shares how he turned a $6,000 severance offer into over $60,000 for one client. Then Nicole and Ryan role-play a firing from both sides of the table — so you know exactly what to say and what never to say. They dig into the issues that disproportionately affect women at work: pregnancy discrimination (the number one form Ryan sees in his practice), his controversial-but-legally-sound advice to disclose your pregnancy early, what rights you have if you miscarry, and how return-to-office mandates are quietly being weaponized as stealth layoffs. Plus: AI keystroke monitoring, non-competes in the current legal landscape, and the interview questions that are totally illegal — that you're probably being asked right now.

Welp, it's time. Here's Negan! Such a polarizing character, and y'all know I have my gripes. But I absolutely can't deny he brought a huge shot of adrenaline to this show. He's a character I often find incredibly fun to watch, and also, in some ways, frustratingly problematic. I'm very glad to have Alex here—cohost of our Dead City coverage and a huge Negan fan—to go over this landmark episode, with maybe the most iconic scene in all of The Walking Dead. So buckle up.
