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 two mini-series:“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.Our newest season is “We’re Alive: Descendants”: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. Content Warning: This podcast contains descriptions of graphic violence, sexual references, and strong language.

    Bij Echt Gebeurd vertellen mensen op een klein podium hun eigen waargebeurde verhalen. Een deel van die verhalen verschijnt op deze podcast. Presentatoren Paulien Cornelisse en Micha Wertheim richtten Echt Gebeurd in 2008 op naar voorbeeld van het Amerikaanse The Moth. Anders dan bij The Moth leest er bij elke verhalenmiddag van Echt Gebeurd ook iemand voor uit het dagboek dat hij of zij bijhield als puber.Wil je een keer een verhaal bij ons vertellen of leren hoe je dat het beste kunt aanpakken? Ga dan naar onze website www.echtgebeurd.net, want we zijn altijd op zoek naar nieuwe vertellers. Onze redactie (die behalve uit Paulien en Micha bestaat uit Arianne Hinz, Tom van Rooijen en Renette Kwakkenbos) leest alle inzendingen en neemt contact op.Wil je Echt Gebeurd financieel steunen? Dan kun je Vriend van de Show worden via vriendvandeshow.nl/echtgebeurd.Om te adverteren in onze podcast kun je contact opnemen met Dag en Nacht Media.De illustraties tot en met aflevering 387 zijn afwisselend gemaakt door Ella Bril en Jikke Lesterhuis, de illustraties van aflevering 388 tot en met 439 door Jill Heesbeen en onze illustrator sinds aflevering 440 is Eline Veldhuisen.
