Ria and Aly met for the first time on a podcast blind date and discussed episode seven of HBO's The Last of Us. They geek out about teenage crushes, what they would do to protect their loved ones and the importance of found family. They manage to keep it together and not fully cry (although there is some crying with laughter). Ria will be discussing each episode, and trying not to geek out too much, every week with various guests. Huge thank you to Kevin for providing his beautiful version of Gustavo Santaolalla's The Last of Us theme. Kevin performed the music on one of his many awesome ukuleles.
