64. Watching Daybreak for Ferris Bueller, John Green & the Weeaboos
About this episode
Jessica and Natasha discuss the Netflix show Daybreak, comparing it to The Last Kids on Earth and exploring its characters and themes.
In this episode, Jessica makes Natasha watch Daybreak, a Netflix apocalypse show that is scary-similar to The Last Kids on Earth. (We're talking the same zombie-survival town map, the same gathering our friends vibe, and the same monsters and zombies in one apocalypse theme.) Listen as we discuss Sam Dean the Supernatural-themed John Green protagonist, our flashback king Josh, and Angelica the bomb girl. Natasha comes up with some wild fanfic that I personally vote we force them to write, as it would be a very fun apocalypse story to read. And then I try to come up with any answers at all for our usual questions given that I remember extremely little about this show. Will Natasha survive the apocalypse? Or will she lose jock idol and be thrown to the zombies? You'll have to listen to find out.
