🍩🧟‍♂️ Wrestling rings, cooking contests, pothead antics, and… zombies? That’s the insane mash-up at the heart of Stephen Graham Jones’ Zombie Bake-Off (2012), a fast, funny, and gloriously absurd take on the zombie apocalypse.

In this episode of Fantasy for the Ages, Jim dives into a spoiler-lite review of the book—sharing why it’s such a blast to read and what makes it stand out in the crowded world of zombie fiction. Expect over-the-top wrestlers, donuts gone wrong, laugh-out-loud absurdity, and a surprising dose of sacrifice and heart.

Then, stick around for a Full Spoil Commentary where Jim shares his favorite chaotic moments.
