Episode 134: Rebels: Steps Into Shadow (Season 3 Premiere)

And you thought we were anxious during the Rebels S2 finale!

After a six-month time skip, everyone has new hair and new vibes. We’re also introduced to two new characters: the Bendu (iconic, btw) and GRAND. ADMIRAL. THRAWN. 

We talk about Thrawn’s canon importance, the nature of the Force, and absentee parents. We also question when a healthy relationship is just unbelievable. (C’mon, Hera, yell at your man!!) as well as what the wider Rebellion is up to. There’s so much going on in these episodes that Hondo Ohnaka is in them and barely got a mention.

Want even more Growing Up Skywalker? This is a great time to sign up for our Patreon for bonus audio content! We’re now taking suggestions on what to watch after we finish Visions Season 2.
