Tales of the Jedi, Andor 8 & 9 + Black Adam, 2022 Horror & Run Sweetheart Run director Shana Feste

On this episode of X-Ray Vision, Jason Concepcion and Rosie Knight battle with Yaddle! Starting in the Airlock (2:50), Jason and Rosie dive deep (deeep) into a galaxy far, far away to discuss both Tales of the Jedi and Andor episodes 8 & 9, recapping all six Jedi vignettes, Andor episode 9, and discussing divergent paths, complicity, and power politics. Then, in the Previously On (1:25:07), Jason and Rosie explore the DCEU’s Black Adam and offer some 2022 horror recs for those of you looking for excuses to eat your leftover Halloween candy. In the Hive Mind (1:59:21), the horror conversation continues as Rosie interviews Amazon’s Run Sweetheart Run director Shana Feste about moving into the genre space, working with talented actors, and more.
