It's our "Mandalorian & Grogu" special episode where Christian Bladt is joined by fan-favorites Eric Conner and Adam "Hughezy" / "The H Man" Hughes to discuss the latest offering from the Star Wars universe, which is the big-screen debut of our friends Din Jarron, The Mandalorian, and his young ward Grogu. This episode was long-delayed for our audio-only audience, because there had been an expectation of recording a second part to this episode with some other friends of the show, but, said friends ended up not seeing it. So, the lesson learned: don't be afraid to do three episodes on the same movie. Don't hold back for fear of clogging up feeds with repetition... especially since that's what we've been doing for almost 14 years over here on the Bladtcast.
