In Chapter 15, The Believer, Mando teams up with ex-Imperial sharpshooter Mayfeld for a covert mission to locate Moff Gideon’s cruiser. To do so, Mando disguises himself as an Imperial trooper and endures a tense infiltration of an Imperial refinery, culminating in an awkwardly brilliant mess-hall scene where Mayfeld snaps and blasts an officer mid-monologue. After a chaotic escape involving TIE fighters and Slave One-style firewor...

In Chapter 14 of The Mandalorian, Din takes Grogu to the ancient seeing stone on Tython for some Jedi Wi-Fi, but just as the Force signal is loading, Boba Fett and Fennec Shand show up demanding the armor back. Before anyone can settle things, Imperial troops crash the party, leading to a tag-team brawl where Fett reminds everyone why he’s a legend. The good news: Din gains allies. The bad news: Moff Gideon swoops in and nabs G...

In Chapter 13 of The Mandalorian, The Jedi, Din finally meets Ahsoka Tano, who’s been slicing and dicing her way through a corrupt magistrate’s goons. She bonds with Baby Yo—errr, Grogu—and reveals his name, his tragic Jedi daycare backstory, and his force powers. Ahsoka refuses to train him (classic Jedi move), but she does point Din toward the planet Tython, while also casually dropping the name of her real target: Grand Admiral ...

On this episode, we discuss The Mandalorian Chapter 12, in which Mando swings by Navarro for some much needed spaceship repairs, only to get roped into helping Greef Karga and Cara Dune blow up what’s supposed to be an abandoned Imperial base, but in Star Wars, “abandoned” always means full of st...

Chapter 11 of The Mandalorian sees Mando finally deliver Frog Lady to her husband, who doesn’t seem too upset about all of his dead kids. Things improve when Mando teams up with a squad of Mandalorians led by Bo-Katan, who’s basically Mandalorian royalty and makes him look like the kid still riding with training wheels. Together they hijack an Imperial ship, toss stormtroopers around like trash bags, and set up the looming ques...

In Chapter 10 of The Mandalorian, Mando becomes an intergalactic Uber driver for a frog lady who needs to get her eggs home, or it’s the end of her bloodline, no pressure.

In Chapter 6 of The Mandalorian, Mando joins a crew of shady mercenaries for a prison break mission aboard a New Republic transport ship. Things go sideways fast when the team double-crosses him, because apparently, backstabbing is just part of the onboarding process. Mando turns the tables one by one, locking his former teammates up like bad space roommates. He escapes with Baby Yoda and a little poetic justice, leaving the mercs ...

In Chapter 5 of The Mandalorian, Mando makes an emergency landing on Tatooine after his ship takes damage during a dogfight. To pay for repairs, he teams up with an overconfident rookie bounty hunter named Toro Calican to track down the elusive assassin Fennec Shand, played by the great Ming Na-Wen.. The plan goes sideways when Toro double-crosses everyone, proving he's more amateur than ambitious. In the end, Mando takes him out, ...

In Chapter 4 of The Mandalorian, Mando tries to hide out on a peaceful farming planet, but ends up teaming up with ex-Rebel badass (and real-life trash person) Cara Dune to teach clueless villagers how to fight off raiders with a terrifying AT-ST. There’s bonding, training montages, and a romantic subplot that goes nowhere because Mando’s married to the helmet. In the end, our heroes realize there’s no rest for the helmeted, especi...

For this episode we asked Werner Herzog himself to summarize what you can expect. "In the bleak and merciless galaxy, a lone Mandalorian bounty hunter delivers his quarry — a small, ancient creature of untold power — to men whose morality is as withered as the dust on their boots. Yet as he watches the infant taken behind cold doors, a terrible melancholy seeps into his soul, for he knows: they do not wish to nurture this being, bu...
