Episode Synopsis

On the 232nd episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@aaronsvoboda.bsky.social), Alfredo Narvaez (@nolafredo.bsky.social) and Dave Gladow (@davegladow.bsky.social) -- are joined by two special guests, friend to the program Sarah Postreich (@fsusarah42.bsky.social‬) and Dave's wife (and fellow friend to the program), Cait Gladow (@nolanolegal.bsky.social‬)! The two join for an in-depth discussion of feminism in "Andor." Certainly, "Andor" understands representation and walks the walk better than maybe any other Star Wars property ever has, but the show also takes steps beyond the Bechdel test to address themes relevant to women's life experiences. The group tackles some of those topics, which characters resonate so well and why, and basically just gush more about a truly great show. Join us!
