We continue our journey west to discuss the bulk of The Last of Us' story, as it takes us from a calm, relaxing journey through Pittsburgh, to a fun trip to school in the Autumn. Except, it isn't fun at all.

Michael sits back as Eric processes playing this game for the very first time, as they break down every masterful piece of worldbuilding and character development.

We also talk about James Bond movies due to the release of 007 First Light, Sayonara Wild Hearts, and, surprise, Resident Evil Requiem

Next Episode: We finish the game.
