This week on The Lettuce Podcast,
Charlotte and Laura become one with the Force while they talk about
the new film, Star Wars: The Last
Jedi! The hosts navigate this
latest installment in the quest for galactic good with Charlotte at
the helm. She and Laura talk about the wealth of badass female
characters (and some males, too!), how Disney has affected the
franchise, how cute Porgs are, and so much more. Charlotte applauds
Carrie Fischer's performance as General Organa, but disapproves of
the budding relationship between Finn and Rose. Laura expresses
frustration with the films villains, but satisfaction with Luke
Skywalker's story arc. Together, the girls argue about the
likeability of Poe Dameron, discuss which plot points surprised them,
and wonder what's next for the franchise. Does Rey have character
flaws or is she a Mary Sue? Has the identity of Rey parents been
truly revealed? And are Adam Driver's lips distracting?? All these
very important questions and more are up for debate on this week's
episode.
In the
Fun & Games segment, Charlotte and Laura play the original TLP
game: Kill, Marry, Pity Date. They also take a quiz to find out which character from The Last Jedi they are. and
reveal the results of their weekly Twitter poll. Which of the
original Star Wars
trilogy films is the favorite among TLP listeners? You'll have to
listen to find out!
This
week's podtail was the fun and customizable Lightsaber cocktail.
Laura used melon liquer to make a green lightsaber. You can use
grenadine for a red lightsaber and blue curacao for a blue
lightsaber. Get the recipe here.
