Sometimes Matthew runs a tight ship, keeping the discussion moving along with the occasional tangent for education, edification, or entertainment thrown in.Today was not that day. With Matthew's video not working, and thus being unable to give his two co-hosts the "don't make me turn this podcast around" face, things went a bit off the rails. Erin showcases her Mystique cosplay, Matthew sings, Alex sows chaos, and amidst the lively detours, we still manage to get some great discussion in along the way.Amidst the antics, the trio also takes a deep dive into Star Wars: The Bad Batch, Season 3, Episode 8, followed by an exclusive bonus for members where they unpack the thrilling The Acolyte trailer.
