Manage episode 429191490 series 3572210
What happens when a reluctant mentor meets an eager apprentice in the middle of a galactic war? This week we explore the often-overlooked gem, the 2008 animated film "The Clone Wars." and the ripple effects it had on the Skywalker Saga.
Then we talk about the controversial actions of the Jedi in "The Acolyte," examining their moral compass and their treatment of the Nightsisters. We delve into theories about Force vergence, witches, and the curious character Darth Smiley, and why the Force is basically a performance-enhancing drug
