2Alexis Hejna hosts Andrew Orozco and David Wright for a deep dive into Andor Season 2 — a Star Wars story with no Jedi, no Sith, and no illusions. This conversation explores how the show mirrors real-world history and politics, from the Nazi bureaucracy of the Wanssee Conference to ICE raids on undocumented farm workers in California.
They unpack the production design’s subtle nods to fascist regimes, discuss PTSD in characters like Bix, and highlight the show’s themes of moral compromise, revolution, and elite complicity. With references to Zone of Interest, Rebel Moon, and real-world oppression, this isn’t just a review — it’s a political autopsy with a lightsaber scar.
