From the return of fan favorite characters to everyone’s favorite child, your hosts Morgan and Jeff share their reactions to The Mandalorian Season 2. We talk about the highs and lows from this season as well as speculate what Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni have in store for us with Season 3. While we recorded this episode back in December of 2020, we were only able to release it now due to our schedules.   Mentioned in This Episode Disney Investor Day 2020: https://d23.com/every-disney-announcement-and-more-from-the-disney-investor-day-2020/ Boba Fett Actor Jeremy Bulloch dies at age 75: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/jeremy-bulloch-boba-fett-actor-in-original-star-wars-films-dies-at-75   Connect With Us If you enjoyed this episode please subscribe, rate, and review.

Morgan and Jeff are celebrating Life Day and the holidays Star Wars style! We kick off the season by listening to the 1980 Star Wars album, Christmas In The Stars (and finally answer the question: what do you buy a Wookiee when he already has a comb?). We also review The LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special; does it hold up to the infamous original Holiday Special? Plus, we talk about the latest news, including movie updates for the MCU and DCCU, thoughts on The Mandalorian so far, and who should be the next Bond.

From supporting laid off Disney Cast Members to finding awesome fandom gifts, we share some of our favorite small shops. We also mention some of our favorite charities.

Plus, we look at how the COVID pandemic could have a lasting impact on the entertainment industry. Finally, sorry for the delay in releasing this episode.

Add a half part of grenadine to either a tall glass, a hurricane glass, or a tiki-inspired glass, then fill with crushed ice. Gently strain the cocktail mixture into the glass so it only partially mixes with the grenadine. Top off with two dashes of Angostura Bitters and garnish with either a pineapple wedge, lime wheel, or orange wheel.   Connect with us: Twitter: @ForceWorksPod; Instagram: @ForceWorksPodcast Jeff: @rooksjeff (Twitter); @rooksjeff (Instagram); u/rooksjeff (Reddit) Morgan: @MorganGeeksOut (Twitter); @thegirlandthegalaxy (Instagram) Email: [email protected] Our Luminous Beings LTD Etsy Store: http://luminousbeingsltd.com/
