Summary

Let's not beat around the bush: We have three episodes today, but one of them towers over the others. It's great to see our favorite Separatist general in "Grievous Intrigue" and it's fun to meet a new, Columbo-esque Jedi elder in "Lightsaber Lost," but over a year ago, it was "The Deserter" that confirmed just how fun doing a Clone Wars podcast might be. And boy, were we ever right.

NEXT TIME: Episodes 34 - 36 ("The Mandalore Plot," "Voyage of Temptation," "Duchess of Mandalore")

Let us return once more to a more civilized age, a Clone Wars podcast.

0:12.8

I'm Rob Zackney, joined by Alia Capora, Austin Walker, and Natalie Watson.

With the GNOS' arc behind us, the Clone Wars is back with a trio episodes that capture

0:23.3

its distinct modes.

0:25.4

Once we have a suspenseful action movie adventure with brevis intrigue, then an episode that's

0:30.2

ostensibly building on the arc of the previous episode, but is actually kind of a gem of

0:35.6

a side story focusing on the clones and their beliefs and views.

0:39.6

And then we're back to a kind of out-of-context out-of-time Jedi detective story that provides

0:45.9

Asoka with an opportunity to learn some unexpected lessons from an unexpected source.

0:51.7

So a kind of question if the right lessons taught or learned are the correct ones and the

0:57.5

ones demonstrated by that episode.

1:00.2

But we'll get there.

1:01.4

We'll start with brevis intrigue, however.

1:05.0

And once again, the Jedi, as they often are, they're trying to capture that dastardly general

1:10.9

grievous.

1:11.9

They're trying to run him to ground.

1:14.0

He's been up to his tricks.

1:16.1

And the voiceover kind of implies that they've finally figured out where he's going to

1:19.8

just right next.

1:21.3

But I'm not sure they have figured it out so much as that general grievous finds Jedi Master

1:26.4

Heathcoff and tosses his shit, um, it's rough.

1:32.2

That would be no sense.
