Unlimited Content: A Star Wars Podcast by Jack & Sam Jack Ford

This week we experience one of the coolest, weirdest, and most canonically important arcs in The Clone Wars — and so we enlisted the help of our lore expert and newly degree'd philosopher cousin, Cal! And he was more prepared for this episode than either Sam or I had been for this whole podcast. We expected no less.
