    Pride & Prejudice & Minions with Liz McFarland (“Narkina 5” Part 5)

    In a 1983 interview with Rolling Stone, Carrie Fisher said to "not forget that these movies are basically boys’ fantasies." 40 years later, has ANDOR improved on the franchise's reputation? To answer that question and more, we're excited to welcome this week's special guest, the incredibly talent cosplayer and maker, Liz McFarland! Together we begin to wrap up Season 1, Episode 7 "Narkina 5", check in on Kleya, Vel, Cinta, Mon, and Bix, learn about costuming across the Star Wars franchise, receive an update on Alex's marriage to Mrs. Marki, and finally ask the most important question: what were The Minions doing from the years 1939-1945? Also, if you're reading this, and you have any PR or media connections that can get us to Star Wars Celebration in 2027, please email us at andorkspod@gmail.com. We really want to go. 😔 --- 👋 Follow Liz on Bluesky and on Instagram! ⚠️ Make sure to check out Crashspace! 🎸 Wishlist Rock Beasts on Steam! 🧭 Subscribe to our BRAND NEW Patreon at patreon.com/andorkspod for tons of bonus content and early access to episodes! 📬 Email andorkspod@gmail.com with any questions or topics you want us to cover in upcoming episodes!

    The Office with Josh Cain (“Narkina 5” Part 4)

    We have lots of questions about the logistics of the prison barracks on Narkina 5.

Other discussion topics include NBA talk, pizza party prizes, the mother dyad of Eedy and Marva, California's somehow-legal slave labor program, cash bail, what a marvelous garbage person Perrin Fertha is, and somehow, the most niche reference Alex has made on the podcast so far. 🦋 Follow Josh on Bluesky at @joshcain.bsky.social 🤖 Subscribe to our BRAND NEW Patreon at patreon.com/andorkspod for tons of bonus content and early access to episodes! 📬 Email andorkspod@gmail.com with any questions or topics you want us to cover in upcoming episodes!

    The Mandalorian & Grogu + PATREON ANNOUNCEMENT (Andorks: Detours)

    This is the way… to a detour! Welcome to the inaugural ANDORKS: DETOUR, which is part of our new Patreon community! You can learn more about our new Andork Patreon benefits at www.patreon.com/andorkspod, but don’t worry, you’ll still be getting a new episode in your feed every Sunday. We’re kicking off Detours with the newest live action Star Wars project since the ending of season 2 of Andor: THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU. Rusteen and Alex – along with past guests Micah McFarland and Hannah Blechmen – headed over to the beautiful El Capitan Theater in Hollywood for the opening night. There we got hats, pens, lanyards, a laser show that was worth the price of admission in itself, and the first new STAR WARS movie in 8 years. What did we think about the movie? Well, listen now to find out! Here’s how Detour episodes will work: regular subscribers will get a full-sized episode to enjoy. Patreon subscribers will then get a BONUS addition to the episode where we go even deeper into the movie, and maybe something we’d prefer to keep behind a paywall. Did we mention we finished a large bottle of wine recording this? Wishlist Micah’s game Rock Beasts on Steam!
