Episode 061 - Gray Jedi: Fact, Fiction, or Fallacy?
Description
This episode returns to previous explorations of various force traditions to explore the concept, popular in the Star Wars community, of the ‘Gray Jedi.’ Looking through the lens of canon characters who profess various degrees of neutrality or differences of opinion with the Jedi Order, the hosts examine what being neutral towards The Force in the Star Wars universe truly means. Is it possible to dabble in the Dark Side without corruption, or are you always riding a tiger than will eventually turn on you? Does disagreement with the Jedi Order itself make you a Gray Jedi, or should this label depend more on the individual’s own relationship with The Force? Assessing characters as diverse as The Bendu, Ahsoka Tano, Baylan Skoll, and Qui-Gon Jinn, the hosts lay out their individual assessment of the concept of a Gray Jedi.
