What the hell was going on? What was this nightmare?

After the ApocalypseA pandemic survival storySeason One, Episode Six, “Anarchy”Janet glanced back at the nose of the Range Rover sticking out from behind the dumpster. She regretted having to leave it. It had become the center of her world since fleeing the city the day before. A safe harbor. A den-like space, comfortable and familiar where she had control. It couldn’t be helped. She needed fuel. She needed food and supplies. ...OutroAfter the Apocalypse is written and produced by Chris Russell (that’s me) aftertheapocalypse.meThe show is narrated by Robert Weinheimer who’s work can be found at https://commandvoices.com/The intro and outro music is by Bobby Quinn https://www.fiverr.com/bobbyquinncThank you for listening to After the apocalypse.

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.

After the Apocalypse - A story of pandemic survivalSeason one, Episode threeHome and CastleThe old man pushed on as the dirt road turned away from the river and drifted westward. 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.

After the Apocalypse - A story of pandemic survivalSeason one, Episode two The Ford of DeathThe old man looked around. 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. He’d seen worse than this when he was in Africa and the far east where, until not too long-ago, death still stalked the muddy streets in the old ways. ...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.
