We're Alive is an award-winning audio drama that follows a group of Survivors in a post-apocalyptic Los Angeles now ruled by the "Infected." It begins with “A Story of Survival” which spans from Chapters 1-48. Our survivors band together, fortify a safe haven known as the Tower, and discover that the Infected are far from the biggest threat they will have to face. The adventure continues with: “Lockdown” - A small group of inmates and prison guards are trapped in the T-block at Twin Towers Jail. They are forced to work together and find a way to escape while the rest of the world ends around them. “Goldrush” - Set 17 years after the main events of “A Story of Survival”, this is a recollection story that describes the efforts of the four Soldiers as they attempt a side mission to retrieve a suspected stash of gold bullion. "Scout's Honor" (on it's own feed!) - Adventure Scouts stranded on Catalina Island off the coast of California must use their wits and teamwork to survive during Outbreak. And “We’re Alive: Descendants," which follows the children of the Survivors as they navigate a dangerous new world. The story of survival continues; the fight is not over. 18 years after the Outbreak, the world is starting to re-organize and rebuild, but many different forms of humanity are still struggling to survive in the aftermath. Nicholas Tink grew up in the shadow of his father. Little does he know that deep in the places where infected dwell, another descendant lies waiting.

Greatest Podcast Ever Created. I listen to a lot of fictional podcasts, this is my all time favorite. This is an exceptional story, fantastic actors and great production/audio quality. Give it a listen, you won’t regret it.
There are a lot of podcasts out there that tell stories about apocalyptic events, but this podcast makes you feel like you are living the story and the voice actors make you feel like you are apart of the story. Also being a former marine Burt acts like how marines would act during this event and it makes me laugh. To the developers great job on this story please keep it up because I cannot stop listening to this podcast.
Although I listen to hours of podcasts everyday, this is the first time I’ve ever written a review on this app. The writing and voice acting in this show is SO. GOOD. I’m absolutely impressed on how all the characters personalities really developed, and the humor sprinkled in is just perfect. Datu was my favorite— A+++ on all these castings. Took me a while to finish binging 7 years of recordings in just a few weeks but wow, thoroughly impressed. This season could completely be a multi-season show and as someone who had finished Walking Dead, this is top tier.
The first season was so incredibly good it deserves 20 stars. I’ve listened to it so many times that I’ve pretty much memorized it. I didn’t think I would like Lockdown because I wanted a continuation of the first season and I didn’t see how a show about a bunch of criminals trapped in jail during the outbreak could be interesting. Well- I was wrong and Lockdown was amazing and deserves 20 stars as well. Multiple play throughs also. The things that made those two seasons so good were 1- Great characters so well written that I came to care about what happened to them. At one point I even shed tears, which has never happened with any other podcast I’ve listened to. 2- Moments of narration to explain what’s going on. The very beginning of We’re Alive illustrates perfectly how important narration is! 3- Many unexpected twists and turns in both seasons. 4- The acting was really good and any acting that wasn’t great in the beginning improved as the show went on. Also, I could easily tell the difference between different characters. This is not the case with later seasons. I also appreciated the evolution of certain characters. 5- Satisfying conclusions. Endings don’t have to be happy necessarily in order to be good. Both season one and two ended in a way that pleased me very much and satisfied many of my expectations. The rest of the seasons I have listened to once and that was enough. I can’t get into Descendants at all and it makes me sad that this is the case with the final installment of a show that I love so much.
