Look, for as long as this Andor fellow is going to keep getting in all kinds of fantastical trouble, we are just going to keep having to talk about it.

Howdy, I'm Jeff Goldsmith, and this is the Q&A.

My agenda is simple.

Each week, I plan to bring you in-depth insight into the creative process of storytelling.

And folks, Tony Gilroy is back. That's right, the headwriter, the showrunner of Andor on Disney Plus is here

with us today to talk through some of the bigger moments in episodes five through nine in season

one. And I got to tell you, this is one of the few shows that I stay current with week by week,

and it's totally worth it. I absolutely adore this show. The writing is so good. In today's episode,

we jump right to it. So there is no spoiler

alert, except for what I'm telling you right now. We are talking in depth about episodes five

through nine of season one. So if you have not seen those episodes, they will be spoiled for you.

So I would press pause and go watch them before listening to this episode.

But look, Tony Gilroy does not disappoint.

He has a great sense of his characters and where the show is going and was very forthcoming about what it took to get episodes five through nine in the can.

So I know you'll dig this episode.

And speaking of things to dig, Backstory Magazine turns 10. That's right.
