Summary
It's time for some Star Wars News live! The Super Bowl came... and went without a trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu. Though the trailer was expected, it was never promised -- meaning what we got was a memorable TV spot paying homage to the legendary beer commercials featuing Mando, Grogu, and Tauntauns. Was it smart? Was it wa aste of the ad space? What did it say about the forthcoming movie? Joseph Scrimshaw and Ken Napzok talk about it all on the 835th episode of ForceCenter
From the minds of Ken Napzok (comedian, host of The Blathering), Joseph Scrimshaw (comedian, writer, director of Dead Media), and Jennifer Landa (actress, YouTuber, crafter, contributor on StarWars.com) comes the ForceCenter Podcast Feed. Here you will find a series of shows exploring, discussing, and celebrating everything about Star Wars. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts and Google Podcasts.
