In this final after-show episode of the Star Wars Escape Pod podcast, we dive into the dramatic conclusion of Maul: Shadow Lord. We celebrate becoming founding members of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art and successfully score tickets for next year's Star Wars Celebration—despite the chaotic online queue. As we dive deep into Shadow Lord, we analyze the "scary again" version of Darth Vader, comparing his relentless, silent killing-machine persona to horror icon Jason Voorhees, while debating the physics of his robotic limbs. Between lighthearted jokes about everyone dressing up as "Dash" (from Dash Rendar to the Mrs. Dash spice) and geeking out over new Hasbro Black Series clone helmet from ATOC. Join us as we wrap up the journey through the series with plenty of "food for thought" and a look ahead to the upcoming Mandalorian and Grogu movie.
