After a six-week hiatus, the Geeks are back! In episode 115 of The Force Geeks: A Star Wars Podcast, Nate and DailySuperhero.com Founder & Editor-in-Chief Daniel Wolf take a deep dive into all the awesomeness we get from the latest Andor trailer. What Showrunner Tony Gilroy has to say about the story and what to expect from the show. The Geeks also take on the debate about the use of an AK-47 getting the modification treatment to be used as a weapon in Andor, with some fans saying it's just lazy. But is it when there is a long history of modifying real world guns in the franchise?

Plus, the Geeks examine the shrinking presence of Star Wars at San Diego Comic-Con, the rumors that Cal Kestis from the Jedi: Fallen Order gaming franchise will make his debut in live-action, more story for Gwendolyn Christie's Captain Phasma, and why making a live-action Revan story could be difficult.
