INTERVIEW: The Redemption of Jar Jar Binks w/ Ahmed Best and Dylan Marron

It's a special, off-format episode in solidarity with the SAG-AFTRA strike! This week, Jon, Jerah, and James interview Ahmed Best and Dylan Marron about their new podcast, The Redemption of Jar Jar Binks.

Together, everyone gets into the vitriolic backlash to Jar Jar in The Phantom Menace, what the response to Jar Jar led to for Black actors in performance capture film making, and what brought Ahmed and Dylan together to make the podcast. Find the show below!
