Resistance: Station Theta Black + Bipo (Season 1, Episodes 11-12)

Poe Dameron is a big dang hero and has been since he was about 18 months old. That’s all.

In this week’s episode, “Station Theta Black” and “Bipo” (Resistance Season 1, Episodes 11–12), we dig into Poe Dameron’s past as a swashbuckling Rebel-style hero of old, and how he represents the Rebellion within the Resistance.

We also sing the praises of General Leia Organa and parse the nefarious thorniness of the First Order’s weapons manufacturing scheme. Finally, we nail down why “Bipo” isn’t just a filler episode—and how we can all lean into our own personal revolution.
