At a checkpoint into the underhive, they were forced to prove they were in fact Khornate cultists. To avoid carving the symbol of Khorne into their own flesh, Morgan grabbed the flight officer they had saved from the wreckage, and carved the symbol into her instead. They then made their way to the mids and The Flensing House, to extract their target. Featuring players Del Borovic, Guy Bradford, Josh Halbot, and Tyler Hewitt, and Dungeon Master Ryan LaPlante.

Ben and Jake sail through the universe powered by the ultimate B plot! Or is it just a plot? Meanwhile, Matt hasn't been feeling well and Andy's got a Thomas Riker-sized existential crisis, but so what else is new?[Episode discussion begins around 1:21, also trigger warning in the first 20 min for those sensitive to hearing about, um...tummy issues]
In this powerful episode of Challenge Accepted, Frank and Thomas return to break down the first three episodes of Andor Season 2. With its return, Andor brings layered storytelling, political tension, and the gritty realism that has set it apart from other Star Wars shows. The hosts discuss Cassian's full transformation into a rebel leader, Mon Mothma's personal sacrifices, and the Empire's terrifying strategies of control. From unexpected romances to moral dilemmas and dark parallels with real-world issues, this is a deep dive into one of the most human stories in the galaxy far, far away. Timestamps and Topics: 00:00 Introduction and three-episode format discussion 00:55 The return of Andor and its standout writing 02:00 Cassian's leadership and evolution as a rebel 03:30 Comparing Cassian to Han Solo and grounding Star Wars 06:00 New rebel factions and the fragmented resistance 08:00 Lord of the Flies parallels and chaos in rebellion ranks 09:30 Empire propaganda and the Ministry of Fables 11:00 Cassian's friends facing injustice and survival 13:00 Nazi parallels and real-world reflection in the Empire 15:00 Mon Mothma's emotional journey and her daughter's marriage 18:00 Tension between tradition and rebellion in Mon Mothma's family 21:00 Tay's breakdown and the price of loyalty 24:00 Cassian's jungle mission and factional mistrust 29:00 Symbolism in the children's games and the Empire's power 33:00 The complexity of youthful rebellion 35:00 Mon Mothma's dance and her moment of joy 38:00 The cost of sacrifice and Luthen's moral gray zone 41:00 Dedra and Cyril's disturbing dynamic 44:00 Bix's trauma and the grittiest scene in Star Wars history 47:00 Visual direction and symbolism in the Tie fighter rescue 50:00 Reflecting on Luke Skywalker's role in the original trilogy 54:00 The state of modern Star Wars, The Acolyte, and storytelling standards 57:00 Starfighter, Gosling, and what's next in the galaxy 58:10 Final thoughts and listener callout Key Takeaways: Andor Season 2 deepens its focus on grounded storytelling and moral nuance. Cassian fully embraces his role as a leader, bringing compassion to rebellion. Mon Mothma's storyline explores generational expectations and political sacrifice. Empire propaganda is shown through chillingly realistic parallels to history. The show doesn't shy away from mature, dark themes rarely seen in Star Wars. Visual direction and character writing are among the strongest in the franchise. Quotes: “This isn't just Star Wars. This is storytelling that trusts the audience.” “The rebellion is messy. The empire is clean. That's what makes it terrifying.” “I wish you were drunk... That line hit harder than any explosion.” “Cassian's not just fighting the Empire. He's fighting for people.” Call to Action: Enjoying the deep dives? Support us by leaving a five-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!

Due to a scheduling...mm, issue? The next drop will be middle of the month.]
It's a road trip with Garak and Odo (who we probably shouldn't forget about)! Will they solve the mysteries of what's happening on DS9?
