The Diva Batch - The Clone Conspiracy

About this episode

The hosts discuss the Star Wars - The Bad Batch episode 'The Clone Conspiracy' and its themes of politics and fascism.

Will the good times continue with the Bad Batch show? NO! In this episode of Dark Side Divas we discuss the Star Wars - The Bad Batch episode "The Clone Conspiracy" (s2e7). We return to Coruscant where we see some Clones are discussing what happened on Kamino, and it's clear someone in the empire wants that conversation to stop. We see the return of Senate politics while the shadow of facism continues to rise. Nothing like a great sci-fi story to show us a mirror about what is going on with our world. What do the divas think of this episode? Listen and find out!
