We’re back for another 7 minutes of Andor, this time with New York Times and /Film writer Rafael Motamayor. A true connosieur of Star Wars, Rafael speaks to how the animated series kept Star Wars alive for a generation of fans, and why Andor fans should check them out. We then return to Aldhani to find Jayhold Beehaz being a very bad dad, olfactory racism, and various biological phenomena.
