Welcome to Star Wars Reactions!

This week, hosts Aaron Harris and David Modders welcome back a long time friend of the show, Samantha Kacho! Join them as they sit down and share their reactions to the fifth episode of the Disney+ series, The Acolyte! 

Due to the length of our discussion, we have split this week’s reactions into two parts: episode 180 and 181.

For part one, they break down the opening sequence of the episode, the disadvantages the Jedi had in the fight, and all about the Stranger! Plus Aaron can’t end episode 180 without a Star Wars Dad Joke of the Week!

Talking Points:

• Episode 180 Opening
