Is this the Heath Ledger appreciation hour? In the 85th episode of the Extra Buttery podcast, Jason and Robert open up with an extended talk about the timeless medieval comedy, A KNIGHT’S TALE (now on Netflix), and where it fits in Ledger’s legacy. After the intro and – tangent alert! – Robert proudly revealing his pumpkin spice obsession, we move onto Season 2 of THE MANDALORIAN (10:20) where we discuss the show’s surprising lack of divisiveness among Star Wars fans, an introduction to Yaddle (not Baby Yoda’s mom, we think) and why everything happens on Tatooine. There’s a short interlude for Sean Connery and his 007 legacy (28:00) before we move onto Netflix’s THE QUEEN’S GAMBIT (32:27) and its first iteration in the 2000’s with Ledger set to direct, and then it’s – veryyyy niiice!!! – BORAT SUBSEQUENT MOVIEFILM (43:04) and its potential implications on the U.S. election and perhaps the upcoming Oscars (according to Jason’s conspiracy theory).
