Over the initial hype of episode one, we’re back to discuss the second, surprisingly shorter, episode “The Child” with David Atwell from Reel World Theology, our mothership podcast! Introducing everyone in the world to perhaps the cutest character in Star Wars history, The Mandalorian must take his now captured quarry home. However, he is waylaid by vicious Trandoshans, scavenging Jawas, and hairy beasts/eggs. We discuss how this episode captures what we love about Star Wars, as well as what it means for our The Mandalorian and his ultra-cute companion.
