SPOILER WARNING! When you’re lost in the darkness… tune in to What the Hype?! Today’s episode will begin our coverage of MAX’s “The Last of Us,” which has its Season 2 premiere on Sunday April 13. In this episode, the hosts recap the events of Season 1, as well as the video game on which it’s based.

Excitingly, hosts Laura and Eric are joined by Chelsea Hopkins, and the whole panel has a lot to say. Chelsea and Eric previously covered Season 1 of the HBO show on their special event podcast, “Thank You for Spore-ing”! Videos of that podcast are available on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrDCenqGSDK9aFvG8L6Z65OR9CSkdTMBp) or wherever podcasts are found (like the show home page) https://thankyouforspieling.libsyn.com/ 

After saying what The Last of Us means to them, and revisiting the episodes of Season 1, the hosts also briefly look forward, in a non-spoiler way, to the forthcoming season and attempt to predict what we can expect from the show. 

Next week, our episode will be ALL-Spoilers for the Last of Us Part II, looking ahead to Season 2’s adapting at least part of the story! Thanks for listening.
