Episode #141 - Stronger Than She Knows: A Celebration of Rey

In this episode, Rachael and Kirsty discuss the following news: - John Boyega's GQ interview (we touch on this only briefly, as we are planning a full episode focused on the issues John raises) - The Mandalorian season 2 gets previewed by EW - Daisy Ridley reveals the behind-the-scenes turmoil surrounding the question of Rey's parentage. We then move into the main topic, which is an extended tribute to Rey. Specifically, we pay homage to the first female protagonist of a Star Wars film by sharing emails sent in by our listeners - we had a fantastic response to our request for contributions, and were incredibly touched by the messages our listeners sent in. We read out all the emails in full, and then add our own comments and reflections. Many thanks to Christy Carew for the Scavenger's Hoard theme, and Nemling for our artwork.
