After the ApocalypseA pandemic survival storySeason one, Episode Eleven, “Service”


Bill the dog watched as the man he had brought to the house bent over and touched his fingers to the throat of the Corporal.

Bill let the man touch the Corporal.

He knew the man was trying to help.

But Bill also knew that the Corporal was gone.

He could smell that the body was without life.

He knew death when he smelled it. He had smelled death many times when he and the Corporal were deployed.

In the war.

Hello my friends and welcome to the Apocalypse – this is Chris your Apocalyptic cruise director.

Today’s episode is brought to you by my friend Ann who is a writer and owns a social media marketing company. She contributed to my Patreon! Which you can too at patreon/aftertheapocalypse – all on word.

You can find links to all Ann’s stuff in the show notes. If you want to sponsor a show I’ll put your links in the apocalypse as well.

I’m usually pretty good about putting links in the notes to anyone or anything I talk about here – so if I reference someone or something, like a movie, an author or a book - I link to it.

I’m also post the episode scripts for members on the patreon page.

I’m in this for the long haul but could sure use your help!

We’re closing in on 2,000 listeners, which I know is a drop in the bucket, but with your help we will grow! Leave a review, tell a friend, let’s keep it going! We added 10 listeners from Japan, domo aregato.

I have worked in Japan, but that’s another story. And we added Denmark, and Finland and Puerto Rico. I’ve been to Demark and Puerto Rico, but I don’t think I’ve been to Finland – so there’s something to look forward to.

I think there are somewhere around 170 – 190 countries in the world, depending on how you count them – so let’s get them all.

Feel free to reach out to me with any ideas or suggestions, I’d love to hear from you! Cyktrussell at gmail dot com.

When I first told Ann about this new project she said, ‘well, that’s nice Chris, but it’s not my cup of tea’. She surprised me with her Patreon contribution – I asked her what changed her mind and she said she loved KJ!

I consider that a success.

Did you like this week’s attempt to see the world through Bill the dog’s eyes? If I can make Ann like one of my female characters, maybe I can make you like my canine friend Bill.

The other thing I’d be interested in some feedback on is the length. I’m purposely keeping these episodes to shortish 2000 word chapters. I’m curious how those string together in the narrative as you’re listening to them. Do you binge through them? Is it long enough to have you looking forward to the next one?

I’d like to release more frequently than every two weeks, but I need some traction to do that so keep reviewing and forwarding. Let’s see if we can’t get some acceleration.

Things are going to continue to get exciting here in the apocalypse.

Let me know if you need anything. Thanks for listening – and Keep Surviving!

So you made it to episode Five?

So you made it to episode Five?

So you made it to episode Five?Hello survivors, this is Chris, your writer, producer and host for After the Apocalypse, teleporting in from the future with some useful information. If you’re listening to this, you have made it through the first four episodes and are about to delve into episode 5. Let me catch you up. I started this story at the end of 2020 and I finished it in the spring of 2025. There are five full seasons with twenty plus episodes in each season, which means you have 100+ professionally produced and acted shows available to you. I’m currently turning the seasons into books – which is fun. The episodes are all around 20 minutes long. Starting at episode 5 I begin to add Outro comments to the end of the shows. The format will consistently be a 20ish minute episode, followed by a commercial break, and then my comments. Note that the comments are old at this point and some of the information, like links and such may be dated. And if you don’t want to listen to my comments you can skip to the end when you hear the closing music that leads to the ad break. I post the text of the comments on the show website at www.oldmanapocalypse.com. You can find all of the links to everything in the show notes. If you are interested in an Ad-free version, you can find that on my Patreon page. Thank you for making the journey with me and keep surviving.

It took him a minute to shake off the haze and remember where he was.

That was a plus because he really didn’t want to go into the city. He was still on the outskirts of the great sprawl of Atlanta. There were more buildings here, not directly on the dirt road but visible through the pine trees draped with kudzu. ...Show notes: After the Apocalypse is a serial podcast that tells the story of the survivors of a 21st century plague that has catastrophically wiped out 90% of human population.

The river, the smoke, the light drizzle and the soft hump of the body making its way down stream to feed the rats of Atlanta. He’d seen his share of death.
