239. Will Wicked Win Oscar Gold? Plus The Skeleton Crew Two Part Premiere Deep Dive!
Episode description
The Socially Distanced Podcast returns to a galaxy far, far away to discuss the brand new Star Wars series -- The Skeleton Crew.
Bill Bodkin is in the host seat and is joined by none other than the "Human Star Wars Encyclopedia" Amanda Rivas and Randy Allain of Pod of Doom and the Media/Lit podcast to discuss the series which premiered on December 2.
In the episode they discuss if Star Wars fatigue is for real, the toxic Star Wars fanbase, their hype level for the Jon Watts created series, their collective love of Neel, their favorite supporting characters, theories on the mystery box surrounding the characters' home of At Attin, space piracy, Kumail Nanjiani, a whole lot more about Neel, and a debate in philosophies on Star Wars via the eyes of Bill's daughter and award-winning director Denis Villenueve.
In the pre-game Bill, Amanda and Randy discuss some of their favorite holiday traditions as well as giving their thoughts (and Oscar predictions) for Wicked Part 1.
