145. The Last of Us Episode 4, Pedro Pascal on SNL & The Big Game
Description
The Last of Us Episode 4 brought Joel and Ellie into a new world of danger, and the Socially Distanced team is here to talk about it all. Al Mannarino, Amanda Rivas and Bill Bodkin are joined by Pop Break staff writer Sam Niles (who writes The Last of Us reviews for the site, and hosted the Marshall's Movies Podcast) to discuss everything that went down in "Please Hold to My Hand." They discuss the deviations from the game (which Sam believes is for the better), the addition of Melanie Lynskey to the cast, the evolving relationship between Joel and Ellie, what is in the basement, and was this episode an emotional and narrative letdown after last week's amazing third episode.
In the pre-game segment the group discusses Pedro Pascal's hosting gig on Saturday Night Live and if his Super Mario digital short is an all-timer, plus they predict who wins the big game this weekend and what trailers they're most hyped for.
