Our #skytalkersmachete series returns with the classic sequel, The Empire Strikes Back! We look at a listener email about Anakin’s virgin birth, and then get right into things. First, we discuss the story of the film; then, we talk character journeys. We ask: why is Luke so angry on Dagobah, as per Yoda? What do we think of the Han/Leia relationship as it is here? And finally, we talk about how this fits into the machete order since putting The Phantom Menace in front of it. We answer a ton of Twitter questions: we get into deleted scenes and the film’s initial reception. All this and more on this episode!
Correction: Charlotte means Boba Fett, not Doctor Aphra, when discussing Vader learning about Luke. Also, we forgot to mention our dear Patron, Emma! We love you, Emma!

Surprise! Charlotte and Caitlin are here mid-week to break down our favorite aspects of Anthony Breznican's Entertainment Weekly coverage of The Last Jedi. We cover Luke Skywalker, Rey and what her parentage means (yes, our theories emerge once again!), and Kylo Ren’s struggle and—how we see it—his redemption. Also, we ask: should we #waitforVIII? All this and more The Last Jedi speculation on this episode!
