Watching Now: The Last of Us | Episode 8 breakdown

Brutality, emotion, action, cannibalism, Troy Baker being stabbed in the neck, this week’s episode of The Last of Us really had it all. We finally got to meet Ellie’s big bad evil guy, David, and boy did it deliver. Of course, it didn’t please everyone and it may be the most divided the room of The Rest of Us podcast has ever been but we loved it regardless.
