Then in the Airlock (12:05) they dive deep (deeeep) into Book of Boba Fett chapter 3.

In Nerd Out (1:19:52) a listener pitches us on Superman & Lois on The CW.

Clarke Award and the Toronto Book Award. Available wherever books are sold. The Road - A 2006 novel by acclaimed author Cormac McCarthy (who is most likely the favorite of that one artsy yet rugged friend – the one who likes “real” camping) set in a wasteland of cannibalism and decay and following the harrowing survival attempts of a father and son. Available wherever books are sold. Star Wars Holiday Special - Adored and abhorred; lampooned & loved. From 1978, set between the events of A New Hope, out in ‘77, & Empire (1980), and chronicles attempts by Han Solo and Chewbacca to get to Kashyyyk in time for ‘Life Day.’ It also introduced the character of Boba Fett, which is partially why we love it.
