CLL 47 - The Mandalorian & Grogu Super Show
Friday, 29 May, 2026
STAR WARS IS BACK ON THE BIG SCREEN — and Captains’ Logs & Lightsabers is HERE FOR IT.This might be the most current episode we’ve ever recorded. No waiting for the discourse to settle, no catching up after the fact — Chris and Jonathan both saw The Mandalorian & Grogu twice before sitting down to record, and they had thoughts.Before diving into the movie, Chris swings by with a Toypalooza debrief — let’s just say his inner Ferengi was very active at the toy fair — plus exciting news about joining a panel at 3 Rivers Comic Con for a discussion on 60 years of Star Trek. Jonathan shares some real-world career news and recaps the ongoing saga of weekly bar trivia with Kylie.Then: the main event.The hosts deliver a thorough spoiler-light breakdown with no plot points discussed, but the completely spoiler-averse may want to return to the episode later — what landed, what didn’t, and why they still walked out of that theater grinning like it was 2019 all over again. (Spoiler warning clearly flagged, don’t worry.) Then, for those who’ve seen it: stay tuned. Chris and Jonathan go beat by beat through the whole film, from the quasi-in-media-res cold open straight through to the finale.New Star Wars in theaters for the first time in seven years. We had to show up.
