The Official The Last of Us Podcast
PlayStation · Sony Music
Show overview
The Official The Last of Us Podcast has been publishing since 2020, and across the 3 years since has built a catalogue of 15 episodes, alongside 2 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 10 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a roughly quarterly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 23 min and 57 min — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. The publisher flags most episodes as explicit, so expect adult themes or strong language throughout. It is catalogued as a EN-language Leisure show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 3.2 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2020, with 12 episodes published. Published by Sony Music.
