ZOM100: Optimism in the Apocalypse
ZOM100 is a quirky show set during the zombie apocalypse that encourages viewers to take advantage of the time we have left. When our jobs under the oppressive systems of capitalism have already turned us into zombies, flesh eating monsters can feel like a fresh start and a good excuse to start living. Joined by the Boos Next Door (Mike Levitt & Isaiah Luck), Ghouls talk about the charmingly positive protagonist, Akira, and what our own bucket lists look like. When there's always a crisis anyway, we might as well live with more whimsy. No time like the present.
