On this episode of Challenge Accepted, Thomas and Frank break down episodes 4–6 of Andor Season 2. From the show's Cold War-style spycraft to its bold commentary on propaganda and rebellion, the hosts dig into what makes this arc one of the best in Star Wars storytelling. They explore how Bix's trauma brings emotional depth, why Luthen is playing 4D chess with everyone's lives, and how the Gorman resistance draws heavy inspiration from real-world history. Plus, they highlight the episode's most intense scenes, character arcs, and political parallels that make Andor so gripping. Timestamps and Topics: 00:00 Intro and structure of the arc 00:27 Reaction to episodes 4–6 as a cohesive unit 01:15 The density and emotional weight of each episode 02:07 One-year time jump and Bix's PTSD 03:25 The cost of rebellion and addiction as escape 04:19 Luthen's manipulation and cold leadership 05:52 Cassian's struggle between sacrifice and morality 06:36 The spy thriller format and deeper writing 08:07 Espionage layers and who is playing who 10:15 Gorman as the sacrificial spark 11:06 Syril's complex alignment and subtle performance 13:54 Star Wars universe tie-ins and worldbuilding 15:13 Syril's mom and media manipulation parallels 18:45 Historical inspiration from the French resistance 21:11 Willimon's role and Saw Gerrera's brutal methods 24:33 The cost of extreme leadership and terrorism debate 26:01 Bix and Cassian's revived relationship 27:14 Spy fashion and Cassian's new role 29:22 The tension-filled party and political subterfuge 33:24 Claire's risky heist and what it might cost 36:10 Cinta and Vel's fractured relationship 37:52 The devastating fallout of one fatal mistake 40:07 The armory's shadow and symbolism 42:17 Gorman's inevitable fall and the false hope 43:18 Final thoughts and next episode hopes Key Takeaways: Andor continues to push the boundaries of Star Wars storytelling with rich political themes and complex character dynamics. Luthen is playing a dangerous game, manipulating even his allies for the sake of the greater good. The Gorman resistance mirrors the real-life Maquis of WWII, making the rebellion feel historically grounded. Syril emerges as one of the most compelling wild cards, torn between loyalty and doubt. The show's choice not to spoon-feed the audience adds emotional weight and realism. Bix's arc powerfully illustrates the long-term psychological toll of war. The episodes' spy-thriller tone reinforces the stakes of espionage in a galaxy ruled by fear and control. Memorable Quotes: “Bix just has all the worst things. Between the PTSD, addiction, and everything she's endured… this is some heavy Star Wars.” “Luthen is willing to sacrifice Gorman so that others might rise. He's using the tools of the enemy to beat them.” “They're not heroes. They're kindling. They just don't know it.” “This is the spy thriller we didn't know we were missing.” “Are these rebels heroes or tyrants? It depends on which side of the coin you're on.” Call to Action: If you enjoyed this deep dive into Andor Season 2, be sure to subscribe, leave us a review, and share the episode using the hashtag #GormanIsAGoner.

Its no secret that Star Wars is a massive franchise that is near and dear to not only me but to tens of thousands, including my pal Matt Charles! Today he is advocating the position that the prequel trilogy is superior to the original trilogy......and I'm here to put a stop to that.

The Whiskey Rebellion is back baby! This iteration brings back host Mark Radulich with new Co-Host Ronnie Adams! Tonight's topics include our All Things Star Wars Discussion. We'll discuss All the Star Wars movies, tv shows and video games.Star Wars is an American epic space opera media franchise created by George Lucas, which began with the eponymous 1977 film and quickly became a worldwide pop culture phenomenon. The franchise has been expanded into various films and other media, including television series, video games, novels, comic books, theme park attractions, and themed areas, comprising an all-encompassing fictional universe. Star Wars is one of the highest-grossing media franchises of all time.The original 1977 film, retroactively subtitled Episode IV: A New Hope, was followed by the sequels Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (1983), forming the original Star Wars trilogy. Lucas later returned to the series to write and direct a prequel trilogy, consisting of Episode I: The Phantom Menace (1999), Episode II: Attack of the Clones (2002), and Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (2005). In 2012, Lucas sold his production company to Disney, relinquishing his ownership of the franchise. This led to a sequel trilogy, consisting of Episode VII: The Force Awakens (2015), Episode VIII: The Last Jedi (2017), and Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker (2019).All nine films, collectively referred to as the "Skywalker Saga", were nominated for Academy Awards, with wins going to the first two releases. Together with the theatrical live action "anthology" films Rogue One (2016) and Solo (2018), the combined box office revenue of the films equated to over US$10 billion, making Star Wars the third-highest-grossing film franchise of all time.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsoFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76

Because "This is the May" is here, I decided to talk Star Wars. What started as a description of my early memories of the franchise ended up turning into a reveal of my ranking of all the Star Wars movies. Release your anger in the comments...within reason.
Welcome to a special Star Wars discussion episode...recorded 2.5 years ago on October 25, 2020. The episode was held back and intended to be used as a fill-in episode in case the Geeks ever missed a week. And...then...we didn't use it anyway...even when we could have. This is the 3rd and final lost/unearthed/time-capsule episode recorded in 2020. Check out the other two "lost" episodes, #122 and #125, which were recorded before the Geeks released episode #001 (I guess you could say these three lost episodes form our own...prequel trilogy). But, this episode was all about Star Wars, in general. - Which Geek declared one of the prequels to be the best Star Wars movies, even better than "The Empire Strikes Back"? What were his reasons, and did any of other Geek agree with him? - What did at least one Geek say was one of the major, fundamental issues with the prequel trilogy? - Were Anakin and Padme soulmates? Is it obvious? Does one Geek think so? - Where should the prequel trilogy probably have started? - Which Geek(s) were fan(s) of the "Star Wars: Clone Wars" animated TV show? - Which Geek(s) theorize that Disney could -- and maybe should -- remake Episodes I to VI of the Star Wars films? Do any of the Geeks think that's what Disney actually intended to do (until "Solo: A Star Wars Story" wasn't received as well)? What were the counter-arguments? - What did the Geeks think about Episodes VII to IX of the Star Wars films? - What did the Geeks think about "The Mandalorian" (at the time)? - Which of the Geeks referenced the movie "Ice Pirates," which the Geeks recently reviewed in episode #126? - What were the various opinions among the Geeks about whether new Star Wars material belong more on TV or the big screen? - Which Geek stated eagerness to see the Star Wars book character Thrawn brought to life (not knowing that he was already in the "Star Wars: Rebels" animated TV show)? Listen now for the answers to these and other questions, as this special time-capsule episode explores our Star Wars opinions from 2.5 years ago. And, be on the lookout for our next episodes when we have a recently recorded two-parter, ranking the Star Wars trilogy films and talking about Solo, Rogue One, and the Star Wars TV shows.

A little later than planned and after a bit of a technical disaster we have managed to salvage quite a decent episode out of our STAR WARS DISCUSSION. To celebrate 50 episodes of the podcast we thought we could allow ourselves the pleasure of discussing one of our most favourite and also disappointing series of films - the Star Wars Franchise. In this episode we rank the films as based on our own sensibilities, and discuss why we love star wars, and also why we hate star wars.Lucasfilm or Disney? CGI or Practical Effects? Luke, Anakin or Rey? Let us know on facebook which side of the debate you fall. Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/wnmovietalk)

I have a good feeling about this! Star Wars month keeps chugging along, as Don & Steven join the pod to discuss our favorite Scruffy Looking Nerfherder's origin story movie from 2018. We have a non spoiler portion in the beginning, then we punch this pod into lightspeed and get to all the good spoiler filled discussions we all know and love. We discuss the lore of Solo, our thoughts on how it performed in the box-office, the reviews, and whether we think this would have been better if it went to streaming instead of the big screen. Either way, this podcast is an Alden Ehrenreich stan, and we firmly hold on to our lucky dice in hopes that we get to see him wield the DL44 one more time.
May the 4th! Happy Star Wars Day! Eric and Brie discuss Star Wars and interview Sumiko and Davis about their Star Wars memories along with their participation in costumed groups Rebel Legion and 501st.
