goated crew, goated show, star wars sucks and is also my favorite thing... more

Do not read this review just start listening, it’s that good. I first came to it when after Andor season 1 hit Star Wars like a thunderbolt and realized I needed more Star Wars in my life. The four hosts have incredible chemistry and all bring unique perspectives and analyses all while being incredibly funny. Whether they’re gushing over an incredible episode of Andor or skewering the most haphazard Clone Wars arc it’s phenomenal. Why are you still reading this? Start listening NOW! It’s all go... more
