Hey! Hey, you! First things first, if you have not left us a review on Apple Podcasts yet, would you mind taking a quick second to do so? We haven’t gotten a new one in a while and we would really, really appreciate it!

Hosts Alyce and Laura have only one item on the agenda*: The Bad Batch finale! There are a lot of explosions, falling, pulling at the heartstrings of Prequel fans, sea monsters, slow walkers and Jurassic Park? Yes. Jurassic Park. 

Oh, and there are SPOILERS! If you don’t want the season finale spoiled for you, stop reading now! In fact, don’t ever read anything ever again! 

• One person’s “Kamino Lost” is another person’s “Well… that happened”
• The design on Laura’s cup looks like vagina
• Remember those things at bank drive-thrus where you stick the pill thingy in the tube thingy and it gets sucked up inside the bank? Those things were awesome.
• Was the Empire destroying Kamino symbolic of COVID-19 destroying the Earth? It kinda feels like it. 
• AZI is the hero we deserve. AZI, please save us from the pandemic. PLEASE.
• If you had to be squished in a tube with one member of The Bad Batch, which one would you pick and why is it Tech because you know he has the best hygiene?
• We’ll never let go, Jack. I mean, uh, AZI. We’ll never let go. *let’s go anyway*

The important unanswered questions: How is Crosshair getting off Kamino? What is he going to eat while he’s stranded? Will he paint his uniform in a rainbow pattern for season 2? Can Fennec Shand still use Nala Se as a reference? WHERE IS CLINK? Is he safe? Is he alright? 

What do YOU want to see in Season 2? What are the other unanswered questions that need to be addressed next season?  Send us an email or a DM and let us know!
