Hoth Takes #11: You Don't Look A Gift Clone Army In The Mouth
Episode 11, Aug 04, 2021, 12:14 PM
How did the Jedi Order go astray? At what point did its fatal flaws develop, and how did Darth Sidious’ machinations accelerate that corruption? In this episode, Eric and Grace explore the Jedi’s tragic decline and fall, from their restrictive dogmas to their sudden militarization during the Clone Wars. We discuss the effects of the Jedi being so close to the Republic (including whether they really had any other choice), whether the Jedi could have played a better role in the war, and whether Yoda should have listened to Qui-Gon about staying focused on the here and now.
