Andor Season 2 Analysis: Power, Propaganda, & Politics (Special Guest Stephen Kent)
With Andor Season 2 now complete, Road to Rebellion takes a powerful turn into the heart of what makes this series so resonant — its politics. Join hosts Pete Fletzer and Nick Mielke as they welcome author and political commentator Stephen Kent (How The Force Can Fix The World, Geeky Stoics) for a provocative, full-spoiler conversation about liberty, resistance, and the cost of rebellion in the galaxy far, far away.
They’ll break down the political philosophies behind Andor's key players — from Mon Mothma’s Senate speech and Luthen’s moral tradeoffs, to the Empire’s bureaucratic machine and the chilling cover-up on Ghorman. How does Andor mirror real-world regimes, propaganda, and moral compromise? What can we learn from it about courage, truth, and fighting authoritarianism — both in fiction and reality?
