Listen "Tony Gilroy: Yes, Andor Does Rhyme with Our Political Moment"
Episode Synopsis
Charlie Sykes sits down with Andor creator Tony Gilroy for a conversation about the show's record-breaking Emmy nominations, its historical inspirations, and its unintentional political resonance. Gilroy discusses drawing from centuries of rebellion and authoritarian playbooks, the banality of evil, and why some institutions willingly surrender to power. They also explore the moral tradeoffs within resistance movements—and why the lessons of history still feel so urgent today. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
