Caitlin and Charlotte get into the concept of family in Star Wars: which is more prevalent, blood family or found family? They define family in Star Wars in part one, and talk a bit about the original trilogy, the prequels, Rebels, Clone Wars, and Rogue One. In part 2, they go into the concept of family in Solo: A Star Wars Story — spoilers ahead. In part 3, they talk about the theme of family + found family in the sequel trilogy and where they think it will all end.

Last Shot by Daniel José Older preps us for Solo: A Star Wars Story by bringing us an exciting adventure with Han Solo, Lando Calrissian, and a ton of new characters (but also baby Ben Solo). On this episode, we discuss what we liked about the book and how it ties into the saga as a whole. We then discuss key themes throughout the novel: parenting anxiety, the joys of doing what you love, DROID RIGHTS, and change/personal growth. We then swap quotes to analyze. And maybe there's a surprise at the very end of the episode.
