Well… that was awesome. Anakin Skywalker’s return continued on this week’s episode of Ahsoka, and it was crackling with lightsaber-crossing intensity as the title character did battle against her former master, seeing shades of the monster he eventually became. What began with some playfully light banter escalated… quickly. But it was all part of Ahsoka’s training to resist the kill-and-don’t-be-killed path that her master went down. We break down the entire exchange — as well as the appearance of another Clone Wars favorite. Plus, we are joined by Hera herself, as Mary Elizabeth Winstead talked to us before the actor’s strike, and we have that interview ready to roll. So come roll with us as we once again deep dive into all things Ahsoka. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Episode 4 of Ahsoka was a huge one as it featured the return of the title character’s former master, Anakin Skywalker. And this week’s episode of the Dagobah Dispatch is equally huge as we not only break it all down, but are also joined by Shin Hati herself, Ivanna Sakhno, who sat down with us before the actors’ strike to chat about both her character and the show. We’ll get into it with the Ahsoka star and also talk about all the huge battles that took place on this week’s installment. Fire up the hyperspace ring because it’s time to blast off!
