In episode 47 of The Force Geeks: A Star Wars Podcast, Nate Jake, and DaliySuperHero.com Founder Daniel Wolf break down the action from The Mandalorian Chapter 13: "The Jedi"  as the Geeks get totally geeked about all the huge reveals. ***This is a spoiler special, so be warned if you haven't watched the episode yet. And don't read any further than this if you haven't seen it yet... because, spoilers!*** The guys discuss the entrance of not one, not two, but potentially three of the most revered characters from both the animated series shows (The Clone Wars and Rebels). There's a lot of love for Rosario Dawson's live-action portrayal of Anakin Skywalker's former Padawan Ahsoka Tano.

The Geeks shower praise on Dave Filoni's script and directorial effort to bring the highly anticipated character to live-action Star Wars. Plus, analyzing the Easter Egg reveals of Grand Admiral Thrawn (and why it's such a big deal), the connection of the Assassin Droids to the fan-favorite Knights of the Old Republic games franchise, and the significance of the planet Tython to the Jedi of the EU. Also, who will train the child Grogu (who now has an interesting backstory that was revealed). And sadly, the Star Wars fandom mourns the loss of Darth Vader physical actor David Prowse.  Check it all out in this week’s episode of The Force Geeks!
