<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A deadly virus rages across the world. The U.S. is in shambles. Despite the imminent threat, humans have started to turn on one another. And in other news, this week Paul and Arlo are talking about Naughty Dog's highly anticipated zombie apocalypse sequel</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">The Last of Us Part II</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">. Joining them for a discussion of this brutal, beautiful game is none other than Alex Jonestown Massacre guitarist Kenn Edwards. The gang discusses how the game departs from its predecessor, the incredible acting of Ashley Johnson and Laura Bailey, how writer-director Nate Druckmann forces the player to confront the consequences of their actions, and more. Also, Arlo didn't actually play it! Plus, Kenn tells us about AJM's new album</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Run-On Death Sentence</span></em> <span style="font-weight: 400;">and his</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Lost</span></em> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">rewatch podcast</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Pushing the Button</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Next: there's hope for our ass after all.
