On this, the 180th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- talk a little music to kick things off before talking Saturn award nominations, 2024 Disney+ release schedules, Disney park changes, and even the potential return of Padme to Star Wars before settling into the main topic, an in-depth discussion of "The Marvels" (40:12). Despite some bad word of mouth, mediocre reviews and a poor box office take ... all of us liked it. So what's going on here? The group dives into the movie's strengths (and weaknesses) and addresses why the larger discussion has been so negative.

They finish up talking a bit about a few smaller news items (53:29) and then share what they're thankful for ... just in time for Thanksgiving!

It's time for the 177th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast! This week, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and Dave Gladow (@davegladow) -- provide a brand new commentary track for "Return of the Jedi." The final film of the original trilogy (TM), this one is a smidge divisive among fans, some of whom adore it wholeheartedly, while others dismiss it for its worst tendencies. The crew digs into some of the particulars and larger decisions made in the movie that ultimately make it a study in George Lucas making his property into a true formula, but doing so in a way that's big, bold, and impression-lasting. Let's give ROTJ its roses ... while also acknowledging its weaknesses.

Happy Halloween! On the 176th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- get into the spirit of the season and put together an exhaustive retrospective on the spookiest moments in Star Wars. What scared us as kids? What creeps us out as adults? And should Luke kissing Leia make the list? (Maybe?) Listen to the gang get nostalgic and list their favorite unsettling moments, and tell us if any of your favorites didn't make the discussion.

On the 175th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- talk Star Wars TV in the wake of the conclusion of "Ahsoka." Obviously, the group is curious about a Season 2 for this particular show, but they also look big picture at the state of Star Wars television. What are the tea leaves suggesting about the future? Let's try to figure it out!

On this, the 173rd episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- talk about "Ahsoka," specifically "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness." Does this episode work as well as previous episodes? The group talks about why (or why not). They cover the major happenings, and towards the end, Dave tries his best to come up with an overarching theme for the series ... and his theory isn't terrible?

Related: Writers strike ends
For the 172nd episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and Dave Gladow (@davegladow) -- kick things off with a little Saints banter and a discussion on Hayden Christensen's star rising (9:43) before jumping into "Ahsoka," this time discussing Part 6, "A Long Time Ago" (15:13). The type of story intrigues the group from the start (thanks to an opening featuring storytelling as a motif), but then, there's so much more to cover here in general, from the appropriateness of the major character introductions (yay!), to some predictions on where things might be headed.
