Happy SOMP Saturday! Join us as we nerd out over our favorite Star Wars video game music - we had to narrow it down to one video game (tough choice!).

ALSO big news, Ashton finally finished watching Andor with sound and he has a lot to talk about. Listen to find out what (and why he didn't get the chance in until now in the first place if you don't already know).
