About this episode

The episode explores the decline of the Star Wars franchise through the lens of the upcoming release of The Mandalorian and Grogu.

In about 10 short years, Star Wars has gone from Hollywood's top franchise to a summer box office also-ran. We checked out STAR WARS: THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU (2026) to try to understand the decline. PATREON-EXCLUSIVE EPISODE - https://www.patreon.com/posts/160203437
