#46 - Disney+’s The Book of Boba Fett | Created by Jon Favreau

Tune in for Arthur’s dissection of The Book of Boba Fett, the Disney+ Star Wars spinoff series that takes place after the events of Season 2 of The Mandalorian. For the first time ever, fabled bounty hunter Boba Fett is in the lead role as he—with the aid of assassin ally Fennec Shand—endeavors to take control of the criminal empire that had once been ruled by Jabba the Hutt and then Bib Fortuna. Yep, this means more time on the desert planet of Tatooine. In addition, Arthur touches on the 2022 Oscar nominees, gripes about TBOBF pulling a Ulysses Klaue, and gets some amusement out of trying to figure out what a “gonk’s scomp jack” might be. Created by Jon Favreau, The Book of Boba Fett stars Temuera Morrison, Ming-Na Wen, David Pasquesi, Jennifer Beals, Sophie Thatcher, Jordan Bolger, Matt Berry, Carey Jones, Stephen Root, Danny Trejo, and Thundercat/Stephen Lee Bruner.
