On the 191st episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- address all of the latest news, from someone spreading their ashes on a Disney Parks Star Wars ride, to Bob Iger getting a vote of confidence from George Lucas, to the biggest news of the day: the trailer debut for "Acolyte," the newest Star Wars television show debuting on Disney+ later this spring.

It's time for the 190th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast! This week, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and Dave Gladow (@davegladow) -- get into some Patty Jenkins discussion (fool me once?) before taking on the two latest episodes (6 & 7) of "The Bad Batch." The evolution of Crosshair continues to be a significant focus, and the introduction of a new batch of clones offers an interesting contrast to who we've been dealing with to this point. More broadly, is any of this "filler" content? The group addresses the concern.

On this, the 188th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- take a pleasant diversion away from typical Star Wars talk to interview New Orleans filmmaker Derek Bridges about his debut film, "The Man in the Red Beret." The group dives into some of the intricacies of what goes into making a movie, waxes poetic on the City of New Orleans and all of its colorful characters, and even to relate it back to Star Wars fandom, the group discusses what we can learn from people's fandoms or passions ... be it for chess or Star Wars or what have you.

It's the 187th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast! This week, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and Dave Gladow (@davegladow) -- review and discuss the first three episodes of the final season of "The Bad Batch," the Clone Wars-inspired animated series on Disney+. Most viewers can probably agree that releasing all three parts together was probably a good idea, but how was the execution overall? Opinions are split. Beyond that, the group talks the latest Star Wars news: from the re-release of "The Phantom Menace" to Pedro Pascal's newest casting news.

Happy Star Wars Podcast Day, everybody! On this, the 186th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- are joined by special guest Kevin Held (@seanorleans) of the Saints Happy Hour Podcast (@SaintsHappyHour) to get in the full spirit of Super Bowl season and hold a great big ridiculous STAR WARS DRAFT. (Hey, when you want to do a draft properly, you bring in the biggest local mock draft podcaster of them all.) So buckle up for a fun ride as we ponder such important topics as whether Lobot should be considered a droid, if Jabba is a creature or humanoid, and just how a person might fit a Rancor onto a sail barge. Follow us on Twitter and vote for your favorite team. Fredo ... you are on the clock.

For the 185th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and Dave Gladow (@davegladow) -- react to the trailer drop for "The Bad Batch" Season 3, offering their theories on what might be in store for viewers during the show's final run. They then take on their main topic of the day as they discuss the 1995 video game "Dark Forces," which is set to be remastered and re-released Feb. 28. Dave had a recent playthrough of the nearly 30-year old game, and he had lots of reactions, including how important the game is in a historical context in relation to other video games, how well it holds up today (a very mixed bag), but also how impactful it continues to be in Star Wars lore in relation to its Dark Troopers and horror elements. This week is all about soldier experimentation, baby!

On the 183rd episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- are joined by special returning guest Aryanna Gamble of the Intergalactic Krewe of Chewbacchus to preview this year's parade and talk all things Chewbacchus. For the uninitiated, this wide-ranging discussion on Mardi Gras, New Orleans, and of the specific parade that Chewbacchus carries out should serve as a nice primer. But even for veterans of the parade, the group goes behind the scenes to talk about what goes into the parade and gives you all the details on what to expect this year. Mark your calendars for Jan. 20, and listen in to learn more!
