The Mandalorian & Grogu + PATREON ANNOUNCEMENT (Andorks: Detours)

This is the way… to a detour! Welcome to the inaugural ANDORKS: DETOUR, which is part of our new Patreon community! You can learn more about our new Andork Patreon benefits at www.patreon.com/andorkspod, but don’t worry, you’ll still be getting a new episode in your feed every Sunday. We’re kicking off Detours with the newest live action Star Wars project since the ending of season 2 of Andor: THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU. Rusteen and Alex – along with past guests Micah McFarland and Hannah Blechmen – headed over to the beautiful El Capitan Theater in Hollywood for the opening night. There we got hats, pens, lanyards, a laser show that was worth the price of admission in itself, and the first new STAR WARS movie in 8 years. What did we think about the movie? Well, listen now to find out! Here’s how Detour episodes will work: regular subscribers will get a full-sized episode to enjoy. Patreon subscribers will then get a BONUS addition to the episode where we go even deeper into the movie, and maybe something we’d prefer to keep behind a paywall. Did we mention we finished a large bottle of wine recording this? Wishlist Micah’s game Rock Beasts on Steam!

Lawyers, Guns, & Credits with Josh Androsky ("Announcement" Part 6)

"Party in the city where the heat is on All night, on the beach 'til the break of dawn Welcome to Niamos, bienvenidos a Niamos." Pop open those Peezos and uncork that Revnog, because we (and Cassian) have finally made it space Miami. We couldn't think of anybody else we'd rather party with than our friend Josh Androsky, who we're excited to welcome onto the pod as we finish up Episode 7 of ANDOR, "The Announcement." Other discussion topics include Florida's sunshine laws, Warren Zevon, and of course, lots of Watto talk.

Happy Maarva's Day with Kelsey Goldberg ("Announcement" Part 5)

As we continue our trek through ANDOR episode 7 "The Announcement," we welcome our special guest and friend, Kelsey Goldberg! Kelsey's a writer and creative executive for.... Roddenberry Entertainment? Wait, that's who produces STAR TREK! We delve into the differing perspectives, histories, and ideologies of Star Wars and Star Trek, the danger of nihilism destroying movements, the story of Exodus, whether or not Don Bluth's 1997 "Anastasia" is anti-bolshevik propaganda, and if Jar Jar Binks should be spared from The Hague after destroying the Republic. Kelsey is also extremely pregnant, so we thought it'd be a great idea to bring her on for the final conversation with Cassian and Maarva, and explore the roles that moms play in Star Wars, politics, and our lives. Happy Mother's Day, everybody! 🌟 Follow Kelsey on Instagram at @24kgold [https://www.instagram.com/24KGOLD/] and at this_tangled_life [https://www.tiktok.com/@this_tangled_life] on TikTok! 🛫 Listen to "Does It Fly?"

Pod Save Coruscant with Alexander Billet ("Announcement" Part 4)

"Cities are built with a conceit of impregnability: made by history, towering over history, making and withstanding history. They are human beings’ monuments to themselves. For a city to be shaken implies a drastic change in history’s course." That's a quote from this week's guest, Alexander Billet's latest book [https://www.mcnallyjackson.com/book/9781919601939]– and it's also a pretty good description of what's been going on in Ferrix as we cross the midway point of episode 7 of ANDOR! We discuss the intertwined histories of neoliberalism and fascism, 1966's The Battle of Algiers, vaping in space, whether Mon Mothma is more Nancy Pelosi or Gerry Adams, how terrifying it is when Star Wars Stormtroopers actually act like real Stormtroopers, and well, a lot of dunking on the DMV area. We apologize to those local listeners in advance. 📸 Follow Alexander Billet on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/ubupamplemousse/] 🏙️ Buy Alexander’s book Shake the City: Experiments in Space and Time, Music and Crisis.
