Josh Gad: Olaf Recaps Star Wars
Olaf and Josh Gad to the rescue….
Let’s face it. We could all use some cheering up. The pandemic, the election, the layoffs, Disneyland, etc.

And, in true Star Wars Rebellion style, Gad is fighting for the Republic.

Last year, he and some friends “grilled” Daisy Ridley (Rey in the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy) about her character’s paternity.
Finally, though I have to point out the best quote from the bit starting with the phrase trade negotiations:
“Let’s just say it doesn’t go well. But thank goodness for them – Master Qui-Gon and Young hot Obi-Wan — soon to be midlife but still hot Obi-Wan in Disney Plus’ limited series spinoff — have the ear of the seemingly good and not at all familiar man who’s named Palpatine….”
