Rod the Zombie with special guest Kathryn Breen | Zombie Book Club Ep 107

When Rod becomes the only sentient zombie in a world overrun with mindless undead, he adopts a squirrel sidekick (Grim), starts naming zombies, and invents a lifestyle fueled by mealworms.

Things shift dramatically when he meets Bethany—a gritty survivor who doesn’t immediately try to destroy him. Together, they explore what it even means to be alive: grief, identity, free will, and the deep loneliness of being neither fully dead nor truly living.

Join us this week as we chat with author Kathryn Breen, a Syracuse-based teacher balancing motherhood and story‑crafting, about breathing heart and humor into horror. We dig into her magical spins on zombie origin stories, honor sibling bonds, and debate whether human cruelty or shambling flesh is scarier.
