177. Skeleton Crew: S1E7 "We're Gonna Be In So Much Trouble" Recap and Discussion

The host has a cold and Jod get his gold. "We're Gonna Be in So Much Trouble" delivers a wonderful penultimate episode to Skeleton Crew's first (and only?) season by delivering answers and leaving some important ones for the finale. What made Jod the detestable pirate he is? How did he learn how to properly wield his powers? What's his real name? The kids have been reunited with the parents, but that might be dangerous. We hear the Supervisor's voice and know the actor well, but what exactly is the story behind that office? What really happened to Tak Rennod? Is SM-33 done for? What's the deal with the creature in his head? It looks like a rat with spider eyes and sounds like a monkey crossed with a parrot when it squeaks. Why are there thousands of vaults on At Attin and who are they really producing the money for? Is Neel's dad the strongest parent of the "core four" or do you think Wendle could take him? Episode 7 is well crafted and should be award nomination material across the board. If what's being said about the show's rating is true, it's certainly not because of the quality it displays. The blame certainly lies with past disappointments that shall remain nameless here. If the show doesn't pick up with word of mouth viewing, then Star Wars may truly be lost. There's just one episode left and one last chance to write in before the finale streams for the first time on the evening of January 14th, 2025. This is episode 177 of This is the Way Podcast and its the recap and discussion of S1E7 of Skeleton Crew. The reaction and review episode was the last release, episode 176. You can still send in theories, but the next time they'll make it into the podcast will be after the last episode is available.
