On the 27th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- are joined by special guest Michelle Hunter (@MichelleHunter), a crime reporter for The Times-Picayune | New Orleans Advocate (and a Star Wars super fan). After discussing the latest "Mandalorian" news and notes, they get into some of the more hilarious stories Michelle has covered (including a wacky Star Wars-related one) before settling into some good old Expanded Universe discussion. When Disney decided to move away from the old EU and rebrand it as "Legends" material in favor of new canon, it left a whole lot of fans disappointed ... and in some cases devastated. We look at the old EU material through the eyes of its fans, discuss its various merits (including specific recommendations for people wanting to check it out), and make the case that there's a place for passionate debate about our content within the fandom.
