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? They Tamogat US with that one!

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!

With the rebels making "an announcement" with the Aldhani heist, the empire begins tightening their fist.

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. This show is so good!

Then, in our Beyond the Outer Rim segment, we announce May the Fierce: A Galactic Drag Brunch hosted by...Us and supporting He, She, Ze, and We. You can buy tickets now to join us in person on May the 4th, 2025 here: http://bit.ly/4jUau1f

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.
