Podcast Stardust #537: The Mandalorian – Chapter 17 – The Apostate

by Podcast Stardust

The Mandalorian returns in a new quest for redemption that finds him looking for allies on Nevarro and within the ranks of the Mandalorians.

It was a long wait, but The Mandalorian returned for season three this week. Din Djarin seeks redemption for removing his helmet and hopes to regain the status of “Mandalorian” by bathing in the waters beneath the mines of Mandalorian. However, the Armorer and Bo-Katan would tell him that the mines were destroyed and the planet was poisoned. Din is undeterred. With Grogu by his side, Din makes his way to Nevarro to find a particular ally and find a new friend. The trip isn’t without danger as he encounters pirates in the first leg of his journey. Join us as we discuss the season premiere of The Mandalorian in this episode of Podcast Stardust.

In this fully armed and operational episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss:

  • Our overall thoughts on the season premier of The Mandalorian,
  • A monster’s attack as a new Mandalorian prepares to take the Creed,
  • Din Djarin’s return to Nevarro in the hopes of reuniting with an old ally,
  • The introduction of the Anzellan’s in The Mandalorian,
  • Whether the Darksaber is worth the trouble it causes the Mandalorians,
  • The introduction of Pirate King Gorian Shard and what the inspiration for his ship might have been, and
  • Bo-Katan’s bitterness and refusal to help Din Djarin.
