It's just Lauren and Kevin this week as they discuss Hugh Jackman: Live from New York with Love, The Last of Us Season 2 premiere, Love on the Spectrum, and Wolf Man.
Lauren opens the show with a trip to Broadway with the fantastic showman (see what I did there?) Hugh Jackman. His new one man show. Live from New York with Love is a celebration of both his long career in showbiz, and his love for New York city itself. It's a fun evening of song and dance and Hugh just being a great entertainer. If you're in town and it's a weekend he's playing, definitely find a way to get tickets!
Next up, Kevin talks about the season premiere of The Last of Us, Season 2. There's a lot to unpack in this first episode and, while it's not the most exciting episode of the series, it informs us all of some very significant events on the horizon. We meet new characters, find new tensions with old ones, and even a budding new love. All in all, it's a pretty important episode, while not necessarily being the most action-packed, but definitely puts us on a path to a hell of a season.
Moving away from the heavy drama of a zombie-adjacent apocalypse, Lauren discusses the Netflix show, Love on the Spectrum. It's a deep insight into the world of people on autism spectrum and what the journey of love looks for them, their partners, and their families. It's a fascinating show with some very interesting characters and an overall theme that resonates with Kevin for... reasons.
Kevin then closes out the show with the recent horror film, Wolf Man. It's a new take on the werewolf story that really deals with family trauma and the way it is passed from generation to generation. This film is heavy on the metaphor, possibly to it's detriment, but it does have a very clear point of view. It also puts the viewer into a very claustrophobic setting which helps build the fear, despite the relatively simple overall premise. All in all it's a decent watch, though not the greatest horror film ever made.
