Star Wars Podcast Day Special! Episode 83: The Bad Batch: “Reunion” and “Bounty Lost”

Once you hit the middle of Season 1 of The Bad Batch (“Reunion” and “Bounty Lost,” episodes 8–9) the hits start coming and they don’t stop coming. We get revelations about Omega’s origins, a terrible run-in with a former friend, and a knock-down, drag-out fight between two legendary bounty hunters.

The stakes are high, but we laughed a LOT, and loved these episodes for their drama, their cinematic mastery, and deft callbacks to about a million Clone Wars references.

Join us next week to recap “Common Ground” and “Devil’s Deal” (The Bad Batch Season 1, Episodes 10–11). After that, there are only three more podcast episodes before we hit Season 2!

PS: This episode celebrates Star Wars Podcast Day, the annual Feb. 7 celebration of the date the first-ever Star Wars podcast premiered in 1999. Check out #SWPD2023 for more!
