The FULL Andor Experience: Last (212 – “Jedha, Kyber, Erso”)

Honestly, there’s no telling what the boys had to say about the Andor finale and how it fit into Rogue One…mostly because Amos didn’t listen so he wasn’t spoiled and could hsare his opinions about it next week in Aftertalk.

Next week: 24 (101 – “12:00 a.m.-1:00 a.m.”)
