The Last of Us Episode 6 - Tommy Byke!

Send us a text


Happy Wine Wednesday! Our regular coverage of HBO's The Last of
Us continues with our discussion about episode 6, "Kin." Tommy
returns with a wife (portrayed by the fantastic Rutina Wesley)
and baby on the way and all three managed to make it out of this
episode alive - hooray!

Candi and I unpack the dynamic between the newly reunited
brothers.  We had a lot of questions about what exactly
Tommy told Maria about his early apocalypse days with Joel. 
I had some questions about the brothers' newly found accents
because the twang was a little thick and not something I'd
noticed in the pilot.

We also share our impressions of Maria - it was truly a Black
History Month miracle that she managed to make it out of this
episode alive and her family intact to boot.

Of course we get into the growth of Joel and Ellie's friendship
and share what we would teach Ellie about from the pre-2003
world. 

In honor of reunions and loving relationships featured in the
episode, the thirst segment discussion centers on the celebrity
crush we would endure a long, taxing trip across several states
to get to against all odds.

Until next time! Friendly reminder that we drink, we know things,
we use adult language, and we have a really great time.
