Summary

This week, Da7e and Neil close out their coverage of The Last of Us season two with an overstuffed episode filled with recap, debate, theories, end-of-season awards, and more.

In The Calm [08:28], they consider how the show's adaptation choices led to some of the postseason discourse, discuss the good and bad of TV cliffhangers, and hand out some very important superlative awards.

Then, in The Storm [01:21:26], they outline the most important casting news to watch for in the offseason and discuss the many possible storylines that could be expanded to pad out the game's story for two more full seasons.

Next week, Da7e and Neil kick off their upcoming Andor coverage by re-upping the previous Storm of Spoilers Star Wars Specials. Then the following week, week-to-week coverage of Andor season two begins with deep dives, Star Wars trivia, special guests, and much more.
