The War and Treaty’s Michael and Tanya Trotter grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington, DC, respectively, but both have family roots in the South. They also grew up in the musical traditions of their churches – Tanya in the Black Baptist Church and Michael in the Seventh Day Adventist Church – where they learned the power of song to move people. After becoming a father at a very young age, Michael eventually joined the armed forces and served in Iraq and Germany, where he took up songwriting as a way of dealing with his experiences there. Meanwhile Tanya embarked on a singing and acting career after a breakthrough appearance in Sister Act 2 alongside Whoopi Goldberg and Lauryn Hill. Now, after a long and sometimes traumatic journey, Michael and Tanya are married, touring, winning all sorts of awards, and set to release their fifth album together, and their fourth as The War and Treaty. Sid talks to Michael and Tanya about the new record, Plus One , as well as their collaboration with Miranda Lambert, what it was like to record at FAME studios in Muscle Shoals, and how they’re blending country, soul, gospel, and R&B.

With The Acolyte coming to a close, our hosts debate the merits and pitfalls of the show. With nuanced characters, compelling action, and rich lore, it brings a lot to the discussion table. But is that enough to redeem it from pacing issues and muddled motivations? Brian, Brody, and Amanda are here to answer that. The finale delivered on many fronts and suffered in others. With many over-generalized arguments about the quality of writing and the state of Star Wars television as a whole floating around, join us in our attempt to understand all perspectives and share what Star Wars means to us.

The Duel of the Ranks crew dives into episodes 6 and 7 of The Acolyte. Amanda finds episode 6 more engaging with its darker story elements, while Brian enjoys episode 7's exploration of Sol's perspective and the Jedi's role in their own troubles. Both agree the episodes tackle the Jedi's moral failings and develop a compelling villain. Brody admires the action sequences and the portrayal of the Wookie Jedi, but on the other hand, criticizes the show's illogical plot points and unbelievable character motivations. With the finale around the corner, our hosts attempt to understand the show's message amidst its chaotic pacing and appreciate the contributions The Acolyte has to offer to the Star Wars universe.

Our hosts, Brian, Brandon, and Chaco, share their thoughts on the newest episode of The Acolyte: Night. Brian and Brandon are fans of the action-packed episode, praising the best choreography, music, and tension we've gotten in this season. Brian particularly likes how Sol's character is evolving, while Brandon questions whether the villain, Quimir, is a true Sith. Brody is less impressed. He finds the acting uneven and the plot predictable, although he acknowledges the show's impressive visuals. The discussion then takes a broader turn as the hosts debate what defines a Star Wars story and whether The Acolyte captures that essence.

Прослушать Позже Прослушать Позже Списки Нравится НравитсяOn this week's episode of Duel of the Ranks, our hosts Luke, Alanis, and Choco debate the latest episode of The Acolyte. While some found the cliffhanger ending to be exciting, others were critical of the clunky dialogue, rushed character progression, and short run time. Speculation and intrigue for new characters such as Mae, Jecki, and Bassil are thriving despite recent outcry from segments of the fandom. Additionally, the episode explores long-running questions about the Jedi Order, particularly their struggles with open-mindedness and appearing in control. Speculation flourishes around the mysterious "Darth Smiley," as our hosts craft theories about their identity and the significance of their mask.

Reviews for episode 3 of "The Acolyte" are all over the map. Brody finds the episode the weakest of all Star Wars content with a predictable plot, uninteresting characters, and being too focused on lore for die-hard fans. Luke and Choco offer a more positive take, enjoying the new information about the Force and the portrayal of the fallible Jedi. Brian agrees with the criticism of technical aspects of the show but finds the episode more rewarding on a second viewing. The discussion takes a more speculative turn as connections between the witches, the Sith, and Jedi prophesies begin to evolve. The episode's effectiveness in establishing a compelling story, however, remains a point of contention as heavy lore appeals to a slimmer subset of the fanbase. While the episode has garnered a lot of negative attention online, our hosts attempt to dissect how much of the criticism is fueled by bad faith arguments while rationally assessing the flaws in its production.

On this week's episode of Duel of the Ranks, Brody, Amanda, and Luke review the first two episodes of the new Star Wars series "The Acolyte". While all enjoy the world building and additions to the lore, disagreement ensues on the overall "television" quality of the show. Brody enjoys the characters and action sequences but found the story predictable and the cinematography a bit off. Amanda liked that the story subverts expectations and the treatment of the Force, aliens, and droids alike. Luke found new and familiar book characters interesting and the music to add depth to the experience. Overall, our hosts agree to tune out the negativity on the internet and want to enjoy the show free of bias. Join us as we debate ranks and hot takes from every perspective of The Acolyte.

We expect the show to feature iconic characters like Yoda and potentially Darth Plagueis, while also venturing into uncharted territory with new Force abilities and shadowy Force cults. The Jedi Order being at the height of its power has the potential to add depth and contrast to the Skywalker Saga without being tied down to the series' core narrative. Despite many far-reaching theories, the hosts recognize that the series might take a more grounded approach.

The animation is praised, along with its focus on lesser-known corners of the Star Wars universe like the Nightsisters and the mountain clan. The exploration of Barriss Offee's story is also considered a strength. However, the episode titles are criticized for inconsistency, and the hosts debate whether the series could have been more narratively impactful. They question the overall purpose of the "Tales of" series, debating if it aims to expand the Star Wars lore, fill plot gaps, or simply serve as a collection of standalone stories.
