Another strong episode. All our characters are thinking about their legacies. What impact do short term decisions have on long term outcomes? 

Plus: Everyone needs to check out the hilarious and expertly constructed murder of the week series on Peacock, Poker Face with Natasha Lyonne.

The episode has been reposted with additional commentary and a spoiler-free review of Sick on Peacock. (33:00)

Another bleak and disturbing episode of this series although with impeccable production. But first, I discuss the loss of a series I was about to recommend and use that as a jumping off point to discuss what is happening with these streaming services. 

In recommendations, The Legend of Vox Machina. A Guardians of the Galaxy-like spoof of fantasy shows that has humor and heart in equal measure (also reminiscent of GotG) available on Amazon Prime and just back for its second season.

The tempo of the show is different so far this season which allows for a pretty effective reflection on how different people deal with their grief and loss.

It's a new season and we are about to get HBO's highly anticipated The Last of Us adaptation. In anticipation I provide some background on the project and the reason I am so interested in it despite my general exhaustion with zombie stories. 

But before that, I go recommendation crazy in reference to the new hit movie M3gan (which I have seen and mildly recommend) which made me want to recommend many other films (which I thought were better). 

Finally, we also discuss the 2016 film, The Girl with All the Gifts, one of the better recent zombie films and how it's themes may intersect with what we may be seeing in this new HBO series.
