306: Season 2 Discussions for The Last Of Us + The Rehearsal
Get in the skiff, museum space pod, or 737–this week we’re talking about The Last of Us and The Rehearsal! It’s an HBO double feature where we cover two different season 2s with high production costs and unique depictions of humanity.
We start by highlighting our favorite and then less favorite parts of The Last of Us (7:05) before diving into what the future could hold for season 3 and beyond in the verdant green hellscape that is this version of Seattle.
And then we pivot to The Rehearsal (39:53), Nathan Fielder’s truly one-of-a-kind production that looks at both human nature and aviation safety. We discuss the whole season (all well as we can), covering all of the aviation singing contests, cloned dogs, and Evanescence songs along the way.

305: Casual Thursday - Great Minds Battling It Out
"Michael and his jeans. He gets in them, and I'm not exactly sure what happens. But I can tell you, he loves the way he looks in those jeans. I know that's why he started casual Fridays."
Once again it’s Casual Thursday, where we answer some questions submitted by our Scott’s Tots Patreon community! We talk about all sorts of topics, including best ways to prepare a potato, Dwight Schrute v. Ron Swanson in a survival competition, greatest middle school dance songs, and a lot more. And then we close out the episode with the continuation of a fantastic listener-submitted trivia!

303: The Last of Us, Thunderbolts, and the MCU
Clean your guns and brace yourself for anything—this week we’re talking about The Last of Us and Marvel’s Thunderbolts*! Alex and Edwin use this episode to talk about the latest happenings in HBO and the MCU. We kick off with the first 4 episodes of The Last of Us, going through the season and asking out loud ‘what the f*** is going on in Seattle?”
Then Edwin (the Marvel fan) talks to Alex (the Marvel skeptic) about Thunderbolts* and why he should give it a chance before closing out the episode by discussing other things we’re watching and reading.
