Briikasak is a Mando'a word meaning a social gathering among comrades during difficult times. In Briikasak: A Mandalorian Podcast, three queer comrades with varying degrees of Star Wars knowledge socially gather to discuss The Mandalorian, Mandalorian lore, and Star Wars in general. 

Marika was able to pull Cork and Bret away from Star Wars Jedi: Survivor long enough to talk about New Mutants: Dead Souls from 2018. Everybody is a monster, Rahne is poorly written, Illyana should have more piercings and tattoos. Cork makes some very good Star Wars parallels and Marika struggles to answer multiple very specific X-Men questions. Happy early Pride and ACAB!

Episodes We Mentioned:
Mutant May: The New Mutants
Mutant May: Marauders (2019)

The gang chats about the well-directed, poorly written "Guns for Hire." Are we supposed to be a broad comedy episode but the writing was too bad? Why are Din and Bo-Katan detectives now? Bo gets the Dark Saber but why now? But hey, Lizzo got to meet Grogu so that's nice.

The Covert comes to Nevarro's aide to save it from those pirates Din and Greef pissed off in the first episode of the season.

Bo-katan is given a quest by the Armorer and is possibly taking Din's leading character role.
