'Tales of the Empire': Star Wars giving us the unexpected

On the 196th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- kick things off by talking about the Star Wars Holiday Special (!?!). They then touch on the latest Stars Wars headlines, including The Phantom Menace re-release and Star Wars' own spin on "What If" before focusing in on the latest "The Acolyte" trailer and why this series has some corners of the Internet up in arms (hint: trolls) but also why it looks like a breath of fresh air. The main discussion after that is a review of "Tales of the Empire," the new micro-series that landed last weekend. One tiny spoiler about our discussion: It's good when Star Wars can still surprise us.
