Occasional Randomness #8 - An Ode to Swamps and Droid Bars (Farscape S3E10 - Mandalorian S3E05-08)

Eric and Jason continue their Farscape rewatch, this time with season 3 episode 10, Relativity. Aeryn and her mother, Xhalax Sun, finally have their long awaited family reunion... in a swamp. It goes about as well as you'd expect, swamp notwithstanding. And in other shocking news, Rygel wants to leave everyone behind once Talyn is healed if they are not back onboard. Inconceivable!
And then we discuss the last half of season 3 of The Mandalorian on Disney+. Where we finally answer that age old question we never knew we needed to know, "Why do droids hang out in bars?". Then once we solve that riddle, we gush over how amazing the rest of the season was and how it wraps up nicely if this is the end of the series. Oh, and we squeal over them name dropping Grand Admiral Thrawn about a dozen times.

Occasional Randomness #7 - Of Muppets and Mandalorians (Farscape S3E09 - Mandalorian S3E01-04)

This time around Eric and Jason review something old and something new.  First up season 3 episode 9 of Farscape, Losing Time. Moya goes through a "harmless" energy cloud and picks up some new passengers. Neither of which want to leave the bodies they're possessing. Can the remaining crew remove these energy beings before the possessions are permanent?
And finally, we've been threatening to do it since we started Occasional Randomness and we finally did. We review something more current. The first half of The Mandalorian season 3 on Disney+. The first half of season 3 has you guessing for a good portion of it what the season is about with some interesting detours and possible fakeouts. But really, it seems like it should be called "The Mandalorians" as there are more Mandalorians than you can shake a scared droid at.
