Show Notes
Almost 2 months ago, we released a brunch episode recapping the first 2 episodes of Season 2 of HBO’s The Last of Us. It was a trial of sorts, as we may dip our toes in TV series reviews in the future. Well, the problem with doing that episode was that we all obviously kept watching and badly wanted to recap the entire season with each other.
HEAVY SPOILERS if you haven’t see all of Season 2. We return to regularly scheduled programming this Thursday with UHF and next Monday with a Brunch about famous movie curses.
