This week on Post-Apocalyptia: We return to Mid-World, with the third book in Stephen King's The Dark Tower series, The Waste Lands! We'll meet up with Roland the last gunslinger and his ka-tet as they find the path of the Beam, and make their way to the crumbling city of Lud. We'll learn the layout of the world, and more clues about the apocalypse that created it--and we'll end with a showdown with an insane supercomputer. This and more, in The Dark Tower III: The Waste Lands! Join us there, at the end of the world. The Dark Tower III: The Waste Lands is currently in print, and may be purchased in print, ebook, and audiobook formats from most booksellers.

This week, we continue our series on the Fallout video game series with Fallout 3! We'll make the leap from isometric to 3D, as Bethesda Softworks assumes control of the series. Travel east with me to the Capital Wasteland, where we'll meet new companions, new friends, and some old enemies. As the Lone Wanderer, we'll search for our missing father, and save the wasteland--but at a terrible price. All this and more, in our third Fallout series episode, Fallout 3. Join us there, at the end of the world! Fallout 3 can be purchased for most game platforms, with the exception of Nintendo.

We are BACK, with Season Two! Today we're opening our season with our most requested story so far, the 2009 comedy film, Zombieland! Marley joins me as we talk about the rules for surviving the apocalypse; why you shouldn't use your real name; and of course, the last Twinkies in the world! We'll talk about the value of comedic stories, even in a typically dark genre, and why it's okay to not take everything so seriously. Except the zombies. Take those seriously. All this and more, as Post-Apocalyptia takes on Zombieland! Join us there, at the end of the world. Zombieland is now streaming on Peacock and YouTube TV, and is available for rent and purchase from most vendors.
