Welcome to For the Republic: A Love Letter to Star Wars Animation! On today's episode, we return to our chronological journey through The Clone Wars, as Andrew (@StarlightAndrew) & Conor (@DepaBanana) are joined by Jarod (@darkjedi2552) of The Nerd Academy Podcast to discuss the standalone episode "Trespass!" We discuss the big themes of the episode, including another example of Star Wars making a commentary on colonialism with the war between the Talz and the Pantorans, the jingoism of Chairman Cho, the usage of the snow aesthetic linked to the episode's storytelling, the peacekeeping methods of Senator Riyo Chuchi, Obi-Wan's continued excellence with negotiations, and Jarod makes an interesting point on Anakin's character! We also introduce a new segment, going back in time to the early days of the internet to highlight fan theories and how the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Episodes Discussed: "Trespass" (S1E15)
