Episode 4 – Star Wars Characters, not in the Skywalker Family (with Rob & James)

Who builds the ultimate team from a galaxy far, far away — when Skywalkers are off the table? This is a special May edition of Fantasyland Draft League, and the topic is Star Wars characters — non-Skywalker family only. Ryan is joined by co-host David and by the two hosts of Bantha Milk Podcast, Rob (@banthamilkpodcast) and James (@banthamilkpodcast), for five rounds of serpentine drafting, rules arguments, and some very Ryan picks. James builds a team of charismatic scoundrels. Rob — Star Wars podcast co-host and first repeat guest in FDL history — goes deep into the galaxy for a fifth-round sleeper that nobody else even considered. David puts together an efficient, category-spanning roster. And Ryan drafts a video game character, a cat's name and a character with the best name — and somehow still stumbles into two picks that even his co-drafters have to respect. Is Palpatine too close to the Skywalker family to be eligible? Does being a backpack count as family? And how did one of the most iconic Jedi in the saga make it all the way to the fifth round? The picks are eccentric, the debates are nerdy, and the draft order was determined entirely by facial hair. This is exactly what this podcast is supposed to be.
