THE DIVAS HAVE RETURNED!

After surviving a lot of technical issues, the divas can finally return and discuss a episode we kinda wish was our last episode of The Bad Batch. In this episode of Dark Side Divas we discuss "Pabu" (s2e13). Clone Force 99 is still not returning Cid's phone calls, and Phee wants to take them to a safe location. What we didn't expect is that The Bad Batch will be taken to paradise. What do the divas think about this Star Wars episode? Listen and find out!

Y'all....we did our best. We tried to record an episode about The Bad Batch, and every bad technical thing happened during our recording. It was the worst. In our entire 5 years we have never had so many recording blunders. So we decided that we are going to give it another try when we record again. Our deepest apologies! For this week's episode of Dark Side Divas we go back to our Clone Wars days, and go back to a time where Stef almost destroyed Chris with laughter. Specifically this is when we talk about The Star Wars - The Clone Wars episodes "The Box" (s4e17) and "Crisis on Naboo" (s4e18). We go back to a simpler time where Obi-Wan Kenobi fakes his own death, traumatizes Anakin Skywalker, gets plastic surgery to assume the identify of a bounty hunter, and go undercover while hanging out with Cad Bane. All of this while being inside Count Dooku's box. Good times! If you haven't listened to this episode before, check it out!

When Star Wars gets serious, it gets very serious. In this episode of Dark Side Divas we discuss the Star Wars - The Bad Batch episode "The Outpost" (s2e12).
