After the Apocalypse

After the ApocalypseA pandemic survival storySeason five, Episode five – “Entrance” ...The Defender Bioceuticals building sat back from the road behind a large, well-manicured lawn like a nouveau-riche idiot’s version of corporate Versailles. The whole facility was surrounded by a large masonry wall topped with a robust combination of security fencing, tastefully screened by landscape plantings. The expansive lawn was carved into a faux Victorian formal garden. “There’s no way over that wall.” Zane observed. “Place is buttoned up like Fort Knox.” The old man agreed. “Seems like overkill for a pimple cream factory.” He was referring to Defender’s number one consumer product, a wonder treatment for adolescent acne. It wasn’t, however, a cream, NeoSpront was a daily regimen of pills that cost over two hundred dollars a month. ...Website -> http://www.oldmanapocalypse.com Buy me Coffee -> https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cyktrussellSubscribe page on Acast -> https://plus.acast.com/s/after-the-apocalypsePodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/after-the-apocalypseFacebook group -> https://www.facebook.com/groups/oldmanapocalypseYouTube -> https://www.youtube.com/@cyktrussellPatreon to support the show -> https://www.patreon.com/AftertheApocalypseMerch Store -> https://www.teepublic.com/stores/after-the-apocalypse Twitter -> [email protected] -> https://www.runrunlive.comPodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/runrunlive Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/after-the-apocalypse.

Chapter Sixteen – Burying the Past...Why hadn’t she stayed with Grace and Teri? She could have. Janet probably should have stayed and maintained human contact. Built a tribe or a new family. Found a way. But she didn’t. She couldn’t.The wounds were too raw. It felt too soon. Too soon to let new people in. This new world of chaos and dying had systematically torn away everyone she loved. She wasn’t sure she could take it anymore. She didn’t know if she was strong enough to take that chance. An emotional shell was calcifying around her psyche, and she felt like a scared and angry child hiding in a closet from a terrible and unforgiving monster. So, she shut the world out....Website -> http://www.oldmanapocalypse.com Buy me Coffee -> https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cyktrussellSubscribe page on Acast -> https://plus.acast.com/s/after-the-apocalypsePodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/after-the-apocalypseFacebook group -> https://www.facebook.com/groups/oldmanapocalypseYouTube -> https://www.youtube.com/@cyktrussellPatreon to support the show -> https://www.patreon.com/AftertheApocalypseKindle Vella Story -> https://www.amazon.com/kindle-vella/story/B09LTRC8RHMerch Store -> https://www.teepublic.com/stores/after-the-apocalypse Twitter -> [email protected] -> https://www.runrunlive.comPodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/runrunlive Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/after-the-apocalypse.

After the ApocalypseA pandemic survival storySeason five, Episode four – “Search for the Cure” ...The small, yellowish, bones were strung on a piece of fishing line. They dangled from the man’s clutched fingers. “Take another step and I end you man!” He threatened. The muscles of his neck stood out taut like cords and he seemed to vibrate with malignant energy. His eyes were narrowed with defiance. His fists clenched. He was like a cornered wild animal. The Corporal glared in response. It was a standoff. ...Website -> http://www.oldmanapocalypse.com Buy me Coffee -> https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cyktrussellSubscribe page on Acast -> https://plus.acast.com/s/after-the-apocalypsePodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/after-the-apocalypseFacebook group -> https://www.facebook.com/groups/oldmanapocalypseYouTube -> https://www.youtube.com/@cyktrussellPatreon to support the show -> https://www.patreon.com/AftertheApocalypseKindle Vella Story -> https://www.amazon.com/kindle-vella/story/B09LTRC8RHMerch Store -> https://www.teepublic.com/stores/after-the-apocalypse Twitter -> [email protected] -> https://www.runrunlive.comPodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/runrunlive Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/after-the-apocalypse.

After the ApocalypseA pandemic survival storySeason five, Episode 3 – “Barn Storm” …Janet sat off to one side scratching Bill the dog behind his ear and watching the leadership group assemble. She suppressed a smile, thinking to herself that in the new barn it felt like an odd ho-down or square dance might bust out. Bill’s hind leg twitched, and he leaned into her hand insistently with his big shaggy head, pushing closer. The barn was a statement, some might say a ‘testament’ to what Mag’s and crew were building. The distribution center, because of its original purpose, had rows of long metal buildings, administrative offices and an equipment maintenance garage, but it was not designed, nor was it ever intended, to support a farming community. So, they got together and built a barn. It was a place to keep their growing stock of animals and equipment. A new place. And a place that was, at the end of the day, a symbol. Evidence that they were working together to build something for the future. ...Website -> http://www.oldmanapocalypse.com Buy me Coffee -> https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cyktrussellSubscribe page on Acast -> https://plus.acast.com/s/after-the-apocalypsePodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/after-the-apocalypseFacebook group -> https://www.facebook.com/groups/oldmanapocalypseYouTube -> https://www.youtube.com/@cyktrussellPatreon to support the show -> https://www.patreon.com/AftertheApocalypseKindle Vella Story -> https://www.amazon.com/kindle-vella/story/B09LTRC8RHMerch Store -> https://www.teepublic.com/stores/after-the-apocalypse Twitter -> [email protected] -> https://www.runrunlive.comPodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/runrunlive Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/after-the-apocalypse.
