Join Lucy, Karen, and Wendy for an impassioned talk about the new Amazon series, The Power. “The world of The Power is our world, but for one twist of nature. Suddenly, and without warning, all teenage girls in the world develop the power to electrocute people at will. It's hereditary, it's inbuilt, and it can't be taken away from them. Coming alive to the thrill of pure power: the ability to hurt or even kill by releasing electrical jolts from their fingertips, they rapidly learn they can awaken the Power in older women. Soon enough nearly every woman in the world can do it. And then everything is different.” Bzzzt!Next up: The new Steven Yeun / Ali Wong Netflix series, Beef!Also, please follow The ‘Cast of Us on your podcast platform of choice.

Another change of pace this week, as Joel reaches Tommy in Jackson, WY, and comes to terms with what he’s gotta do. Such a great episode: at times funny, tense, heartbreaking, awkward and uncomfortable, moving, inspiring, and ultimately, incredibly worrying. Links:• Pedro Pascal SNL Skit “Waking Up”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GEWSNylwS8• Rutina Wesley wanted to play Maria in The Last of Us her way: 'I was up for the challenge’: https://ew.com/tv/the-last-of-us-rutina-wesley-maria-interview/• ‘Walking Dead’ Daryl Spinoff Adds Five to Cast: https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/walking-dead-daryl-spinoff-cast-1235519220/Please tell your friends who love The Last of Us about us We’re easy to find.
