Now that the dust has settled on Season 2 of Andor, what better time to start a rewatch with us as we kick off our coverage of the second season of the critically acclaimed series. The first arc of the season begins with a bang. So much action as we begin one year from the finale of season 1. We've got grand theft auto, a wedding, and the Empire coming after the Ferrix survivors and plotting something sinister for Ghorman.CW: We discuss a depiction of sexual assault and violence in that occurs in the third episode of Andor. If you or anyone you know is facing sexual violence, please know help is available.

We wouldn't be doing it without y'all!
We've reached the end of Season 1 of Andor, and what a journey it's been. At the start of our coverage, we talked about the competing mythos in Star Wars - the mystical and singularly heroic, and those that reflect our own histories, highlighting antifascist movements and collective action. And, boy, did the finale really hit that message home. Listen to hear us gush about the ending and the season as a whole.And, we announced our next episode, we're doing something special to celebrate our 100 episodes -- you get to ask us ANYTHING!

The penultimate episode of Season 1 does not disappoint (not that we expected it to!). Cassian and Melchi make it off Narkina 5 with the help of some amazing freaks. Meanwhile, the situation on Ferrix takes a depressing turn. We talk the impact of Maarva's death, recite a poem to our boy Syril, unpack Leida's trad turn, and give this episode the affirming grunts it deserves. Plus, it's officially CELEBRATION WEEK Punky Muffins! We give our predictions on what we'll see at the convention (spoiler: We were already wrong about one of our guesses!)

Is "One Way Out" the best episode of Star Wars television ever? We discuss everything that makes this episode great, including standout performances from Stellan Skarsgård and Andy Serkis, their incredible monologues, the message this episode teaches us about collective action, and so much more. Plus, as we continue to inch closer and closer to Star Wars Celebration Japan, we break down some of the merch we've seen that we're excited about. An R2-D2 Tamogatchi?

Today marks the FIRST episode of our weekly run for the month of April as we prep for Season 2 of Andor and Star Wars Celebration! And to kick things off, we discuss the second episode of the Narkina prison arc! Bix endures horrific torture while Cass adjusts to live in prison before learning a terrible truth -- the Empire has no plans to let anyone out. We give our condolences to Ulaf (RIP) and scream the lyrics to Linkin Park because NOBODY'S LISTENING!

We arrive on Narkina 5 and see the THX 1138-inspired Imperial prison facility in it's full, sci-fi, terrifying glory. We give our thoughts on this episode, how it connects to the U.S. carceral system, and request that Dedra step on us both. To begin our episode, we talk about the injustice currently being perpetrated by the U.S. Government against Mahmoud Khalil, a student activist and permanent resident, who's currently seeing his 1st Amendment and human rights violated. More information on this situation and how you can take action is below.Free Mahmoud KhalilMother Jones: The Horrific Details of Mahmoud Khalil's Detainment - www.motherjones.com/politics/2025/03/mamhoud-khalil-detainment-disapperance-trump-white-house-involved-rubio-betar/5Calls: Demand the Release of Mahmoud Khalil Script - https://5calls.org/issue/mahmoud-khalil-deportation-first-amendment/Jewish Voice for Peace: Call Congress: Demand the release of student activist Mahmoud Khalil - https://www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/resource/call-congress-demand-the-release-of-student-activist-mahmoud-khalil/ACLU releases video of Mahmoud Khalil's Arrest - https://www.nbcnews.com/now/video/aclu-releasees-video-of-mahmoud-khalil-s-arrest-234498629999It Could Happen Here: Mahmoud Khalil's Arrest and What Comes Next - https://www.iheart.com/podcast/105-it-could-happen-here-30717896/episode/mahmoud-khalils-arrest-and-what-comes-270009114/Action Network: Demand the Immediate Release of Palestinian Student Activist Mahmoud Khalil from DHS Detention - https://actionnetwork.org/letters/demand-the-immediate-release-of-columbia-student-pro-palestine-advocate-mahmoud-khalil-from-dhs-detentionYou can buy tickets now to join us in person on May the 4th, 2025 here: http://bit.ly/4jUau1f.

With the rebels making "an announcement" with the Aldhani heist, the empire begins tightening their fist. We discuss the fallout from the last arc as our players move into position to begin the next one. Maarva, Luthen, and Mon Mothma are all standouts in this episode that, honestly, caught us by surprise!Then, in our Beyond the Outer Rim segment, tickets are officially on sale for the upcoming Drag Show "May the FIERCE Be With You" hosted by yours truly!

The Aldhani rebels reach a point of no return...because they're heading out for their mission! We react to to the finale of the Aldhani heist arc, how the episode subverted our expectations (in the best way possible) every step of the way, and what ripples we think the ending will have on the remainder of the season.

Tension mounts as the Aldhani group prepares for the upcoming Imperial heist. This episode gives us so much juicy character development and tons of quotes. The view may forget, but the pod remembers! We're loving the pace of this season so far. It's simmering, tension is building, scenes are breathing, and characters can really show us who they are. Then, in our Outer Rim, we mention some non-fiction books that could be great reads today.

We were so enamored with Skeleton Crew that we had to give you our thoughts, so we're doubling up this Monday with a bonus episode talking all 8 episodes of Skeleton Crew! We give our thoughts on the show, our favorite characters and moments, queer and neurodiverse representation, and where we think the show could go if we get another season.

Cassian sets off for a new adventure, leaving Ferrix, and his troubles with Pre-Mor, behind. We're introduced to a new cast of characters as we enter the next three-episode arc, including Mon Mothma and Luthen Rael's alter ego. We gush over Stellan Skarsgård and Genevieve O'Reilly's ability to speak in "thieves' cant" and seamlessly go from portraying their characters as confident, high society figures to intense, fearful, and cautious. Then, in our Outer Rim, we talk about David Lynch and how much he and his work have meant to us.

Everything comes to a head in Andor Season 1, Episode 3 "Reckoning" as Luthen Rael arrives to meet Cassian on Ferrix. We discuss the workers' aiding Cassian 's escape--letting us and the Pre-Mor Authority hear what a reckoning sounds like--Luthen's knowledge of Cassian's past, and the brutal treatment of Maarva and Bix. It's hard to believe this show keeps getting better after this. And for our Outer Rim segment--Tommy's on an anime kick, watching Kaiju No. 8, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, and Gundam Wing, while Cass is wheeling and dealing in Weather Factory's Book of Hours.

In our discussion of Episode 2, we explore how the show has become a unique and powerful addition to the Star Wars franchise after just two episodes and how we're trying not to rush through it because we're already obsessed. We delve deeper into how the Empire, through the Pre-Mor Authority, is poised to strengthen it's grip on Ferrix, drawing parallels to the very real corporate authorities that impact people's lives in our own world (*cough* Amazon *cough*). Despite the dark themes that Andor presents, Tommy brings some festive cheer during our Outer Rim segment by discussing his fondness for re-watching A Muppet Christmas Carol!

The day has finally come - we're finally watching Andor Season 1 for the very first time! In this episode, we discuss how the show became such a powerful, yet different entry in the Star Wars franchise, how we almost got a much different show (K2Fast, K2Furious: A Cassian Andor Story), the real life "mythologies" that shaped the show, and, of course, our thoughts on Episode 1: Kassa.

As we gear up for our coverage of Season 1 of Andor, we thought we'd stop by the film that started it all first-- 2016's Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. We discuss our feelings for the film when we first saw it in theaters and how, as we've grown, our opinions have changed over time. We also touch on real life connections to the movie, controversies, and why the film is just as important today as the day it was released. It's a political movie. And this is a political episode.

On this day in 1978, CBS aired what they hoped would be an instant classic: a brand-new holiday special to be rewatched and beloved for years to come...set in a galaxy far, far away. The Star Wars Holiday Special. Today, on the 46th anniversary of it's airing and Life Day, we're revising the classic, and we've brought along the incredibly talented and lovely hosts of The Mixed Reviews, Gavin and Louie, to help us celebrate this incredibly camp, often absurd, and this surprisingly queer piece of art! (It involved Bruce Vilanch and Bob Mackie, I mean, hello?). We also discussed 2023's documentary and book of the same name A Disturbance in The Force: How and Why The Star Wars Holiday Special Happened.

We've finally reached the end of the Star Wars: Droids, and that means it's time to watch 1986's hour-long television special "The Great Heep". And to help us serve up this HEEPing portion of Droids, we're joined once again by the wonderful Patrick Cotnoir, Executive Producer for the George Lucas Talk Show!

It's a bittersweet episode as we bid adieu to our often beloved, often confusing Star Wars: Droids: The Adventures of R2D2 and C3PO. At least...until The Great Heap! And we could not have arrived at the end without the help of an incredible guest - writer, photographer, multi-fandom extraordinaire - it's Meigs, creator of Meig's Odyssey and @Meigalorian everywhere online! We talked to Meigs about their journey in the Star Wars fandom and other fandoms in nearby galaxies, and of course, talked about this wild show. ESPECIALLY tiny R2, the absolute best boy. Correction: At minute 49:42, the name Tommy was looking for was Jon Favreau, not Kevin Feige. Who cares though?

We're flying SOLO in our penultimate episode covering Star Wars: Droids: The Adventures of R2D2 and C3PO, and we're taking the opportunity to reflect on our time covering this show. As chaotic as it's been, it's been SO much fun to chat with friends, new and old, and introduce them to this wild series. And, we have a couple amazing guests left on the docket...so stay tuned! Plus, we talk "Tail of the Roon Comets" and "The Roon Games," give our thoughts on Mungo Baobab, talk all the wild lore that comes from this episode, and announce the next show we're covering...Andor Season 1!

Kybo gets his revenge in "The Revenge of Kybo Ren" because, sure. And Coby (who we just met in Episode 8) gets back his ...

We're kicking off a BRAND-NEW (to us) series and diving into the classic Star Wars: Droids: The Adventure of R2-D2 and C-3PO! It's an animated show so spectacular it demanded two colons in it's title (but, sadly, only one season). In our first episode, we cover the series premiere and talk about the history of the show and Nelvana, the animation company that brought it and it's companion show Star Wars: Ewoks to ABC in 1985.

It's a Glitterjaw Crossover! We joined our pals Katie and Doug from Novel Gaming to discuss Star Wars Hunters: Battle for the Arena by Mark Oshiro, a middle-grade novel tie-in to the popular new game from Zynga! The book focuses on Rieve's backstory and gives more color to the characters in the game. Plus it...weirdly serves as an instruction manual to online hero shooters and objective based games?

The Acolyte ride is officially over...for now at least! We're covering two massive episodes - Episode 7, Choice and Episode 8, The Acolyte. And of course, we had to have help - so we brought back our friend Doug (@ickybooley) to help us break down everything these two episodes had to offer. We go DEEP into the often difficult themes of Choice, including it's depiction of colonialism, how it may shine a light on the treatment of and attitudes towards black women in our society, and the Rashomon effect. Then, we break down all our theories about The Acolyte and give our overall impressions of the show! You can find Doug on social media @ickybooley on multiple platforms.

Oh boy. First up, we talk briefly about our thoughts on the state of the Star Wars fandom, the good, the bad, and the chuds. But more importantly, we discuss some of the more positive aspects of the fandom and encourage everyone to engage with their fandoms, Star Wars or others, in a healthy way. Check in on yourself, and if things feel overwhelming, it's OK to take a break from social media, content creation, or the fandom for a beat. All will welcome you with open arms when you return (unless you spew hate, in which case, bye!). Oh, and we talk "Destiny" and "Day," episodes 3 & 4 of "The Acolyte"! These episodes were beautiful, and also gave us some great Queer Moments in Star Wars History!

We're so thrilled to have the chance to sit down with Patrick Cotnoir, producer for The George Lucas Talk Show (plus so many other amazing projects!) to talk the new documentary, I'm "George Lucas" - A Connor Ratliff Story, which you can stream right now at imgeorgelucas.com. We also nerded out about The George Lucas Talk Show, including the time he flew a kite in a hurricane at the beckoning of George, Watto, and Paul F Tompkins, and the INCREDIBLE Naboo Movie: A live Staged Reading of The Phantom Menace. We may have gotten some exclusive info about a follow-up LIVE performance... Plus...we played 6 Degrees of Gammorean Bacon! It's safe to say this was one of our favorite episodes to record.

And we've brought along our good pal Doug Fink from many a show over on glitterjaw.com!

This show CAN'T END! Don't let it end! In this, our penultimate episode dedicated to The Bad Batch, we cover everything there is to cover about "Juggernaut," including our love/hate relationship with Rampart, gush over just how bad ass Omega is in "Into the Breach," and stress over the final moments as the boys make their way to Tantis.

11 episodes down and, unfortunately, only four to go. "Identity Crisis" gave us the first episode of the season - possibly the entire series - that doesn't feature any member of The Batch. And what an incredible episode it was as Emrie finds herself as the head of Project Necromancer. "Point of No Return" saw CX-2 finally arrive on Pabu, decimating The Batch in a surprise attack (RIP Marauder). In a word, we're both pretty numb (and honestly, in awe because these episodes were stellar). We cover everything there is to cover with these two episodes including our theories for what's to come.

Swamp monsters, the return of TWO beloved characters, and we finally have an answer to the question, "Is Omega Force-sensitive?" ...well, sort of. We give our thoughts on "Bad Territory" and "The Harbinger," talk about our hope for an Asajj Ventress animated series (Disney, please!), and continue to gush over the wonderful gift we've been given with this final season.

Cass and Tommy discuss all the beautiful themes this season is setting up for us. Crosshair and Omega have to find some common ground (or just...cause a ton of havoc!) in "A Different Approach." And Crosshair has to deal with what was left buried on Barton IV in "The Return," a beautiful follow-up (of sorts) to Season 2's "The Outpost."

The boys are back in town...for one final ride. The bittersweet, three-episode premiere pulled no punches, and we absolutely loved every second of it.

We took a break from our first love, the 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special, to see what the newest holiday special stacks up (sorry). This cute, Lego filled adventure taught us so much about the meaning behind master and apprentice languages, and took really strange choices, like not letting Threepio speak until the end? While not perfect, the special is great fun, and we hope you'll have a blast celebrating Life Day along with us! Be sure to follow us on Twitter @DistantEchoesSW or Instagram @DistantEchoesSW.
