DJ attempts to master breaking the code but nothing will crack our guest commentators Daniel Quantz & Alison Rosen!

Starts with Finn letting everybody know that the tracker is right behind that door, ends with Poe telling C-3PO to go with that.
Continuity error: DJ's hat is facing forward in one shot and backward in the next.

R2-D2 was the heart and soul of the first three movies, but he's barely in the Sequel Trilogy.
- Mentioned: Scrappy Scrappy-Do, Cousin Oliver.
Our important Underoos memories.
Rose's medallion is perfectly spaced to short-circuit the thing. Unless it's all for show (since DJ's already turned).
Roses exist in Star Wars (but, see below).
When DJ returns the medallion, it's the movie's way of lulling us into a false sense of security and thinking he actually turns out to be a good guy before it undermines our expectations.
For Alison, Benicio del Toro does not fit in this role in this movie.
The story of how originally the Master Codebreaker was supposed to be an elaborate alien puppet animatronic creation but then Justin throw was available at the last minute. John Williams shows remarkable restraint when DJ gives him the shout out the best conductor. The Disney plus extra on John Williams. Daniel is mixed on Rey's theme ( Luke's theme ( shout out to chrysanthe tan and the Star Wars music minute.

29:10 podcast episode length
The Wookieepedia article about roses is in Legends, and there is no Canon tab, so no word if they are still a thing.
