296. Kennedy Out at Lucasfilm + A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Review w/ Gigi Ford of Conculture Podcast

Socially Distanced heads back to Westeros to hang with the super awkward, yet super lovable Sir Dunk in the new HBO series, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. "The Human Star Wars Encyclopedia" Amanda Rivas is in the host seat to discuss the return to the pages of George R.R. Martin, and a galaxy far, far away (more on that shortly). Amanda is joined by Pop Break's Editor-in-Chief Bill Bodkin, and Gigi Ford of the Conculture Podcast. In the episode they discuss the hype level they had for the series, if A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is the breaking point for the Game of Thrones universe, why they adore the lead character, Amanda's fascination with the new Baratheon, and if the humor lands. There's also a of talk about poop. If you know, you know. In the pre-game segment they analyze the departure of Kathleen Kennedy from LucasFilm, her exit interview with Deadline, Dave Filoni and Lynwen Brennan taking her spot, Kennedy's film legacy and most importantly -- where they see Star Wars heading.
