Coffee With Kenobi: Star Wars Discussion, Analysis, And Rhetoric

On today's show, I speak with John Redlingshafer (The Hyperion Hub) about his first time watching The Empire Strikes Back. John is a lifelong Disney aficionado but a Padawan of Star Wars lore with no expectations or foresight of what comes next in the saga. We discuss the film’s tonal change from the original, his impressions of Yoda, and whether he should watch Return of The Jedi next or try the infamous “machete” order.
