The Mandalorian: The Perfect Gateway Drug

Send us a text


We are delighted to welcome our very first podcast guest - Maddie
Kay Ray!  Maddie is a cosplayer, podcaster, and nerd
loremaster.  She flexes her loremaster skills this week as
we talk all things Mandalorian. 


INTRO - 10:41
We kick off with shit we like - Jocelyn loves the Epix series
Godfather of Harlem and thinks you will too!  We did not
like the news of Marvel adding a trans character to the MCU being
walked back/clarified to learn that there will be no progress on
that front forthcoming.  Cast Angelica Ross as Storm you
cowards!


10:42-18:42
We then get into our overall thoughts about The Mandalorian AKA
The Baby Yoda show. It is a perfect gateway for those new to the
Star Wars universe.  We marvel at how Jon Favreau took a
deep cut and made it a hit. 


18:43-51:04
Next, Maddie puts on a master class in lore as she explains where
The Mandalorian falls in the timeline in the Star Wars universe
and does a deep dive into the Mandalore.  We also totally
geek out over the Darksaber.  


51:05-END
We close the discussion by sharing our thoughts on our favorite
episodes, characters, scenes, and character arcs.  We also
share our wish list for season 2. No episode of I’ma Need More
Wine would be complete without throwing a little shade and
getting a little thirsty.  We question people who don’t love
Baby Yoda.  Seriously, who hurt you?  We thirst over
one of the baddest bitches in the galaxy, Cara Dune, and
celebrate the legendary acting of Giancarlo Esposito. 


We loved The Mandalorian and had a blast talking about it with
Maddie.  Give her a follow on Twitter and IG!


PS - Jocelyn sincerely apologizes to Hellboy fans for referring
to him as Hellraiser when discussing Kuill.  She does not,
however, apologize for referring to Greef Karga as Apollo Creed.
