You are now joining Children of the Watch.

That's right. It's the number one podcast in the galaxy for all things. The Mandalorian. I am your host Alex Maxwell and joining me as always is

Mac lazy and we are super excited to be here for our chapter 23 voice mail hotline episode. As we always say, this is just so much fun for us to be able to hear from you guys.

You've definitely been keeping the calls coming. We got tons and tons of calls to go into those was really fun.

But yeah, I'm pumped to hear from you all and talk about I mean we have several pressing issues I think that we need to discuss.

Yeah, I feel like the fandom like we're all like not necessarily fighting with each other, but it's like who's the spy is this the spy? No, that's the spy. No, this is the spy. Who's the spy? I feel like we're all there in a very fun way.

You know, yeah, trying to figure out like who did it? Like this is like a like we're all playing like fandom among us. Yeah, like like Agatha Christie novel or something going on here.

We're just trying to figure out who is going to betray who and then what's going to happen in the final episode of season three. I can't believe we're already here, Mac. Like it is.

I am so nervous about this finale.

I am to season three of the Mandalorian has been just like such high highs. Pretty consistently. I feel like to you. I just feel like it's pushing everything.

It's just pushing the envelope this season, taking everything up to 11.

Yeah, I have I have like I know we're going to fun spot going into the finale. I think right because we have a general idea of what the premise of the the episode will be.

Right. Right.

Saved in. Yeah.

Get everybody to safety. Save the fleet. Like we know the things that have to happen. Right. So the fun part is just watching it all unfold and seeing like the surprising ways in which everything happens.

Yeah. Right.

And then I think they're probably going to throw some major monkey rinses at us.

Well, yeah, and that's the thing. And I think what we're all starting to realize, especially after the announcement at Star Wars celebration of like the reason this season is the way that it is is that it's really setting up what's going to be coming later with that movie.

And I think I think when they started writing this season, they started to realize, okay, we've got a direction that we're heading towards that maybe wouldn't realize we wanted to go to

last season, you know what I'm saying is like they started setting that up in the book above a fat and now we're heading in that direction and it just feels bigger and scope. It feels truly like, okay, we're really setting up a Star Wars galaxy wide conflict that's coming up like it's starting here on Mandalore and it might explode and expand everywhere in the Star Wars galaxy. And I can't wait to see how that plays out.

Yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure, big things are going to happen. I doubt that we'll be using the majority of our seats, probably just the edge for one thing.

I wonder how long it's going to be. They still haven't like the person who typically like releases how long it's going to be hasn't done that yet.
