Send us a text If Andor Season 2 Episode 8 had an alternate title, it would be: The Tragedy of Syril Karn. I think it’s in Syrils many flaws that we can gain the most insights. It certainly seems that he’s come to this realization, albeit too late. What exactly can we learn from Syril’s example? That’s exactly what we talk about in this episode.

Send us a text Andor Season 2 Episode - WHO ARE YOU was a heck of an episode wasn’t it??? There’s lots to talk about so I’m going to give myself more time to be able to properly process everything and give you a Path of the Jedi you deserve. If you’re not already following us on YouTube, I invite you to check it out and see what else we got going on over there https://youtube.com/@cannibalron?si=jwb2rH1Xq6TQ8VmN Let's connect on Bluesky! https://bsky.app/profile/ronniecruz.bsky.social
Send us a text Thematically m, this may be the most important episode of Andor yet. Or at least our most important discussion. Cassian is carrying the weight of everything that he’s lived through and everything that he’s done. And we see in this episode that it’s starting to take its toll on him. No matter how much he denies it and ignores the signs, he need help. To me this episode is about healing and how healing often requires seeking the help we need. Cassian can’t do it alone. You can’t ...
Send us a text Know you’re WHY. Taught and talked about so much in the business and personal development world that it’s become cliché. But there is truth in cliché. And this episode of Andor (Andor Season 2 Episode 6: What a Festive Evening) illustrates how important the principle of “WHY” actually is. It’s our sense of purpose. It’s what drives us. Without it, our pursuit become empty and meaningless. This episode of Andor teaches us to always stay connected to our WHY or risk s...
Send us a text The question for this episode of Andor is: “What are you angling at?” Of course everyone has an agenda. But whether or not they achieve their desired outcome depends entire on the quality of their interactions. In this week’s episode, we discuss owning your greatness, the importance of humility, and how to get more done without sacrificing kindness and understanding. Who knew we could learn so much from Star Wars? ;) Let's connect on Bluesky! https://bsky.app/profile/ronn...
Send us a text Like Cassian we all want to help and take care of the one we love especially when they’re struggling. But as well meaning as our intentions might be, sometimes we can end up doing more damage. In this episodes, we answer Cassian’s question: “What am I doing wrong?” **************** Greg McLaughlin and The Rebel Base Card Podcast: Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-rebel-base-card-podcast/id1456411641 Bluesky - https://bsky.app/profile/rebelbas...
Send us a text Betrayal! To live In the cloak and dagger world that is the show Andor, betrayal is an occupational hazard. But outside of scheming and plotting and back room deals, does betrayal actually happen in real life? If so, how? It’s a matter of TRUST. Betrayal can’t happen without trust. So the question is, does trust automatically open you up to the risk of being betrayed. We get into all of this and more in this weeks episode. *********** HEYDAY MUSIC - visit and support this...
Send us a text What kind of friend are you? Before this episode of Andor, we believed that Tay and Mon were the oldest of friends. Unfortunately, what that meant differed for both of them. We see in this episode that Tay is more than willing to throw away the connection he has with Mon — all for his bruised ego and own bad decisions. Again, what kind of friend are you? Are you a “Tay”? Or are you a “‘Mon”? Let's connect on Bluesky! https://bsky.app/profile/ronniecruz.bsky.social
Send us a text Here we go! The Season 2 Premier of Andor! And what better way to kick off this long awaited series than by answering a listener submitted question in conjunction? This is really what Path of the Jedi is all about — finding insights to our life experiences from Star Wars. Andor in particular is so full of humanity, so full of character development, that it’s almost impossible not to learn from its themes and story arcs. This shows success is in large part due to how relatable A...
Send us a text I know we were supposed to start our Andor Season 2 discussions today but honestly, I just couldn’t get it together in time. So instead of pressuring myself to deliver what potentially would’ve been a subpar episode, I wanted to expand on last week’s message: Celebrate Your Wins. It’s an important message and Andor can wait☺️ ********************* Check out Star Wars: Exiles, my fanfiction book based on the Star Wars Universe. An original story with original character, Ex...
Send us a text This week we are dipping into our back catalogue once again to revisit Star Wars: Visions Episode 1 - The Duel Visions is one of the most creative properties in Star Wars and I was thrilled to hear the announcement of a third season coming dropping this October. So whether you’d like to get reacquainted with the series or are checking it out for the first time, Path of the Jedi is the perfect companion to your Star Wars Visions viewing experience Let's connect on Bluesky! https...
Send us a text Here’s a replay of our Andor Episode 12: Rix Road discussion. With the season right around the corner, I thought you’d like to use our episode by episode discussion of Andor as a companion to your rewatch of Season One. Or, even if it’s your first watch, our discussions can really add to your viewing experience. Here’s ep 1 in that series: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1836307/episodes/11401216-andor-ep-1-life-isn-t-binary ☺️ Let's connect on Bluesky! https://bsky.app/p...
Send us a text I’ve said this a lot the last decade or so but… WHAT A TIME TO BE A STAR WARS FAN! At this particular moment in time, we have so much to look forward to, least of those things being the 20th Anniversary re-release of Revenge of the Sith, the premier of Andor Season 2, and Star Wars Celebration Tokyo! We discuss all this and so much more. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride!☺️ ==================== Rewatching Andor Season 2? Listen to our episode by episode discussion as...
Send us a text It’s no secret. There exists a toxicity within the Star Wars fandom (and really, all fandom) that sometimes makes it difficult to participate in that fandom. It’s great when we can have a shared love and experience in Star Wars, that it can bring us together in excitement and appreciation for the vast mythology within. But when hate and ugliness invade those spaces, it’s tough to want to even be involved. So, this episode discusses the roots of that toxicity a...
Send us a text Because I took such a long hiatus and because I’ve connected with so many new people since reviving the show, I thought I’d take this opportunity to tell you a little bit about myself… at least in the context of this podcast. So if you’re new, welcome and thank you. If you’re a long-time listener, you’ll hear a familiar story told through a different lens. Four years have passed since I did a “who am I” episode, so my perspectives have definitely evolved since then....
Send us a text We’ve arrived at the final episode of Ahsoka and what a doozy! This episode shows us the stark contrast between Ahsoka and Thrawn and their approach to conflict. While Thrawn’s approach relies completely on strategy and tactic, Ahsoka has begun to lean more into “going with the flow.” She’s learned to let go of the need for control and is allowing herself to once again “trust in the Force.” Letting go. Leaning in. Surrender and trust. These are all things we can do more of. Com...
Send us a text How does Star Wars inspire you to DREAM? There are many ways. But beyond dreaming of far off galaxies and grand space adventures, Star Wars can inspire us to dream again HERE on earth, to dream of better tomorrows for ourselves and for the world. Parts Six and Seven of Ahsoka hold myriad lessons. But the message that stood out to me the most was to stay inspired and always keep dreaming. What about you? ============================ Crazy Dreams performed by Me...
Send us a text We’re off to an actual distant galaxy! Our heroes are stepping into uncharted territory in this episode in more ways than one. How do you handle having to face circumstances and situations you’ve never faced before? How do you handle facing the unknown and uncertain? We can certainly learn from our heroes in this episode. And that’s what we discuss today. ======================== Check out Mike Upton and the Bright Suns Podcast! Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/brightsun...
Send us a text The past can haunt us. Decisions that maybe didn’t turn out the way you thought they would compounding into monumental self doubt and eventually leaving us paralyzed when facing the crossroads of uncertainty. Yea, me too. Things haven’t been easy. There’s been a lot of uncertainty in the world and moreover in my personal life. And so I’m really working hard to lean into that uncertainty and trusting that my past experiences have given me wisdoms enough to make...
Send us a text I need to come clean. There’s no Ahsoka discussion this week. In this episode I explain, pretty openly, why I was unable to continue our conversation about the ongoing adventures of our Ahsoka and our other heroes. It hasn’t been easy for any of us, I think. And sometimes we have to take a step back and give more attention to our mental health than to the things the world tells us we should be prioritizing. It’s a tough balance. On any given day, to live, participat...
