CONPLAN 8888 The Military's Bizarre Zombie Apocalypse Battle Plan | Zombie Book Club Episode 30
02/04/24 • 59 min
Get ready to march into the macabre with our discussion on CONPLAN 8888 – the Army's zombie apocalypse battle plan that's more than just a punchline. Dan and Leah, your battle-hardened hosts, sift through the pages of the U.S. Army's most bizarre contingency with wit and wisdom, SO MUCH WISDOM. We're not just talking about the walking dead; we're analyzing the military's strategic humor, contemplating its role in training, and decoding the different zombie types the Department of Defense humorously prepped for.
This week's episode isn't just a romp through the undead; it's also a tactical masterclass. Marvel as we HATCH a plan to combat evil magic chicken zombies (EMCZs) – sounds like a movie plot that might just RUFFLE FEATHERS in Hollywood. But there's method to the madness as we discuss genuine military strategy laced with a healthy dose of absurdity. We're not only considering chicken wire barricades but also the importance of civilian-military cooperation in facing FOWL foes. Expect real talk about martial law, special operations, and the logistics of equipping an army to face... chickens. It's strategy and satire, and you're in the war room.

Apocalypse on Wheels: Disabilities, Ableism, and the Undead | Casual Dead | Zombie Book Club Ep 29
Ever wonder how a zombie apocalypse would treat those with disabilities? Or what the barking of dogs might add to the quality of a podcast? Grab your headphones and join us as we navigate ableism in the zombie apocalypse. We discuss the unexpected potential of clay cats as currency in the apocalypse and the portrayal of people with disabilities in apocalyptic media. We're serving up a concoction of humor and depth that’ll have you pondering and chuckling in equal measure.
This episode is not just about survival against the odds; it's about the nuances of strength and the unexpected triumphs in adversity. As we recount the tales of Greg, our everyman turned hero in RPGs, and explore the lived experience of using a wheelchair, we're breaking down stereotypes and building up a narrative that's as diverse as our listener base. Characters from "The Walking Dead" like Connie and Herschel take the spotlight, as we examine how apocalypse narratives can either challenge or reinforce biases, and we share an array of survival tips that go beyond the normative expectations.
Finally, we wrap up with groans from the hoard and discuss underrated survival tools and muse on ideal locations for outliving the undead. Our journey is peppered with personal insights, a touch of whimsy, and a commitment to inclusivity that we hope resonates with you. So, let's celebrate the quirks and the quiet strengths that come into play when the world goes to zombies. Thanks for joining us, and remember, the end might be near, but so is the next episode of our podcast.
