Show Notes

Another fortnight has passed, and this time we come to you from a galaxy far, far away. Let us whisk you away, into a story of a resistance and fan base divided. Talking points: the oweness of cultural relevance, "Everything an Ordeal in Local Family", the narrative value of tradition versus the new, writing things for fun on the internet, flaws in character, power fantasy and response to villainy, the consequences of conflict and heroism, and hey, maybe one of the villains was the toxic masculinity we found along the way.
