'Andor' ascends to thrilling new heights with its latest batch of episodes.

Schmear is joined by Dan Monaghan of Reel Takes to dive into Season 2, Episodes 7–9: they discuss the slow start and debate the odd inclusion of the force as a theme in episode 7 (08:25), unpack the chilling real-world political echoes in the masterfully tense episode 8 (21:27), and celebrate the pure excitement of episode 9 (36:46) — spotlighting Genevieve O’Reilly’s tremendous speech as Mon Mothma and the show’s smooth, confident storytelling.
