SHOW NOTES AND PODCAST LIVE ON https://amorecivilizedage.net or WHEREVER YOU LISTEN TO PODCASTS!

Surprise! Thanks to a very kind mystery contact with their own very kind mystery contacts inside of Lucasfilm (and/or Disney Plus), we were given last minute screener access to the Andor finale. And you better believe we hustled to watch it, prep our notes, and deliver the longest episode of our Andor season and one of the longest episodes we've ever recorded.

Come for our emotional reactions to the return of voices we'd thought we'd heard the last of. Stay for our dive into 2000s-era anarchist philosophy. And then rate us five stars for all the time we dedicate to talking about our very favorite absolutely rotten relationships.

ALSO: As a special bonus for our Patrons, we recorded our own live reactions when we group watched this episode together. Go to https://patreon.com/civilized, support us at the $5 level, and you can hear each of our exuberant pop offs, our surprised gasps, our wavering voices, and our howls for the most rancid of love stories.

NEXT TIME: No episode on the 30th (this is that episode), and potentially no episode on the 7th. But we have a bunch of great stuff queued up for December, so look forward to it!

Just wanted to say thank you to the crew for this, it was a really amazing episode to cap off a truly great season of television! I don't usually keep up to date with this stuff (or even watch the clone wars 👀) and it's been really fun listening along each week, every time I finished an episode of Andor I couldn't wait to hear y'alls reactions.

And I loved the political breakdown there by Austin, reminded me I need to read more Gramsci!

spoilers for the episode follow

I don't think you elaborated on this in the podcast, but the exact wording Andor uses to guide his friends at the end is "The moment you get over the water, you climb, all in", and I popped off on that so hard. Like, the main character just casually dropping the two big visual themes of the show as an instruction for the people who put their stake in the rebellion as well? Just, such good food

unbelievable work y'all and thanks for giving me 2 things to look forward to every week. from the beginning you've given me the tools to figure out how to fall in love with Star Wars again and connect with my friends who are heavier into the fandom.

thanks for thoughtfully hoisting the black flag and repping the worst ships <3.
