More than just zombies

One of the running themes of great zombie movies is stepping back and exploring society. Racism, mental health, government and economic themes. Dan and Leah do a great job of highlighting these themes in zombie media and also calling out areas where these could be improved (or completely crap the bed). They also bring a lot of humor to the episodes and it’s easy to tell they’re having a great time. Give this a listen.
