366. Star Wars IX: The Rise of Skywalker (2019)(At the Movies)

Cute droids, contortionist plots, and the Abrams, oh my! Shaun Duke and Alex Acks don their Rebel uniforms to tackle the conclusion to the Star Wars saga, The Rise of Skywalker. Together, they talk about what the film represents within the trilogy, how Abrams attempted to tie everything together, and where the film goes right and where it goes wrong, and much more. Like traditional style roast Porg, this one is stuffed with content.

We hope you enjoy the episode!
