Episode 085 - Skeleton Crew Season 1: Star Wars Through Fresh Eyes (Visual Media Survey, Part 10)

In this episode our hosts discuss the latest visual media released into the Star Wars canon - Skeleton Crew , a piratical and coming-of-age story set post-Return of the Jedi that shows us a galaxy far, far away through fresh eyes. Connor and Alex recommend Skeleton Crew for almost any pirate fan, both for its tightly paced story, compelling characters, and (relatively) small stakes allowing the development of those characters to breathe and take center stage. Listen now to hear the hosts thoughts on the best moments of the show, an exploration of the character of Jod, and a thorough discussion of the worldbuilding spread throughout the show.
