Join Children of the Watch as we continue our Mandalorian Rewatch! This week, we're looking at Chapter Five: The Gunslinger of The Mandalorian. In preparation for the next Star Wars film, The Mandalorian & Grogu, we're going back through The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels, The Book of Boba Fett, and The Mandalorian itself to break down all of the easter eggs, connections, and hints about what could be coming in the movie!
This episode, Mac and Alex are more split on opinion on some things than usual. Join us as we discuss the infamous Toro Calican, his similarities to Dash Rendar, how night scenes look on the Volume, and so much more.

| 0:00.0 | So, Alex, the Mandalorian is a show that has so many wonderful, memorable characters. |
| 0:22.9 | I wanted to take, you know, we're midway through our Mandalorian rewatch of the first season, basically. |
| 0:28.6 | I wanted to take a little bit of a time to just focus on the cast of characters we've been dealing with so far. |
