  • Summary

  • 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- the late, great, Saul Tink. Little does he know that deep in the places where infected dwell, another descendant lies waiting.

    The storm is building, and not everyone will make it through unscathed.


    18 years after the original STORY OF SURVIVAL, a new generation is forced to grow up in the post-apocalypse. The Infected have evolved into new deadly varieties, and humanity’s efforts to reclaim our lost civilization have put us in conflict with our greatest enemy: Ourselves. Now the countdown begins as the children of the survivors work to make sense of this deadly new world before it consumes them and everything they know and love.

    The battle for survival is far from over. Alex, Dot, and the refugees race against time, but exhaustion and uncertainty threaten to unravel their escape. As they push forward, the dangers of the desert prove just as deadly as the enemies hunting them. Meanwhile, Nicholas and Will navigate other treacherous terrain, where the past casts shadows and every step forward may lead them closer or further from where they need to be.

the storytelling and compelling narration

I've come back to this series multiple times over the years. I first stumbled on it in 2017 and listened straight through for a week or so. Each re-listen I enjoy thoroughly and that's due to the excellent writing, narration, and audio that culminate to produce a truly immersive experience

loving this

I'm caught up at the end of chapter eight, and I'm so excited to see what happens next. this might actually be the best story yet! I've got my husband hooked into the whole series, too, and it's our goto when on long drives. I'm really looking forward to seeing how the last group makes it out and how back home will get on.

I adore this

I am now (in 2025) catching up with the story, listening to the episodes in sequence.
Just finished Lockdown, the first mini-series and looking forward to starting the next one.
This is not for the fainthearted but it does contain much more than gore and violence. The characters are deep and the plot is more detailed and complex than in most blockbusting movies or TV-series of the genre.
The acting, I find the casting pure brilliance!
Also, as listen via good quality headphones, the sound world does take you right there! Thus, I for one. am not listening this when I am about to go to sleep, just too scary!
A strong recommendation!
