Welcome to Episode 167 of the Force Geeks: A Star Wars Podcast! ***Warning: Spoilers ahead!*** Join Nate, Jake and  Chris for our The Bad Batch after-show, as we dissect the latest double episode from the third and final season of the animated series. Warning: spoilers ahead, so if you haven't watched both episodes yet, be sure to catch up before listening! We dig into "Infiltration" and "Extraction," which not only feature a Clone Wars era reunion but also lay the foundation for events in Star Wars: Rebels. Alongside uncovering Easter eggs and symbolism, we explore theories about the shadow trooper's identity and discuss the implications for The Bad Batch moving forward.

Additionally, we speculate on the seeds of rebellion being sown and when viewers can expect the first trailer for The Acolyte TV series. Plus, we analyze the return of director Patty Jenkins to her on-again/off-again/now-on-again Rogue Squadron project and assess its likelihood of ever hitting the big screen amidst all the challenges of the last few years. Tune in for all this and more on The Force Geeks podcast!
