The Rise of Skywalker (Part 1)

You may not have been asking but we're completely fine talking about The Rise of Skywalker on the latest episode of The Everything Sequel Podcast! You'll hear the many problems we have with what we're calling the opening crawl this week (not to be confused with the opening scrawl of last week), a lengthy conversation about the pros and cons of a line like, "somehow Palpatine returned," and whether or not it's wise to make your hero like a drunk friend who is always getting you in trouble.
