  • #89: Andor - Season 1, Episode 2: "That Would Be Me" (Keep the pod sharp by releasing it)
    2024/12/23

    In our discussion of Episode 2, we explore how the show has become a unique and powerful addition to the Star Wars franchise after just two episodes and how we're trying not to rush through it because we're already obsessed.

    We delve deeper into how the Empire, through the Pre-Mor Authority, is poised to strengthen it's grip on Ferrix, drawing parallels to the very real corporate authorities that impact people's lives in our own world (*cough* Amazon *cough*). Despite the dark themes that Andor presents, Tommy brings some festive cheer during our Outer Rim segment by discussing his fondness for re-watching A Muppet Christmas Carol!

  • #88: Andor - Season 1, Episode 1: "Kassa" (K2Fast, K2Furious: A Cassian Andor Story)
    2024/12/09

    The day has finally come - we're finally watching Andor Season 1 for the very first time!

    In this episode, we discuss how the show became such a powerful, yet different entry in the Star Wars franchise, how we almost got a much different show (K2Fast, K2Furious: A Cassian Andor Story), the real life "mythologies" that shaped the show, and, of course, our thoughts on Episode 1: Kassa.

    Plus: The triumphant return of Beyond the Outer Rim! Cass discusses the latest in the High Republic book series: Cavan Scott's Tempest Breaker!

  • #87: Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (Andorigins)
    2024/11/25
    As we gear up for our coverage of Season 1 of Andor, we thought we'd stop by the film that started it all first-- 2016's Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. We discuss our feelings for the film when we first saw it in theaters and how, as we've grown, our opinions have changed over time. We also touch on real life connections to the movie, controversies, and why the film is just as important today as the day it was released. It's a political movie. And this is a political episode. Strap in.

  • #86: The 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special Revisited (feat. The Mixed Reviews!)
    2024/11/17

    On this day in 1978, CBS aired what they hoped would be an instant classic: a brand-new holiday special to be rewatched and beloved for years to come...set in a galaxy far, far away.

    The Star Wars Holiday Special.

    Today, on the 46th anniversary of it's airing and Life Day, we're revising the classic, and we've brought along the incredibly talented and lovely hosts of The Mixed Reviews, Gavin and Louie, to help us celebrate this incredibly camp, often absurd, and this surprisingly queer piece of art!

    (It involved Bruce Vilanch and Bob Mackie, I mean, hello?).

    We also discussed 2023's documentary and book of the same name A Disturbance in The Force: How and Why The Star Wars Holiday Special Happened.

  • #84: Star Wars: Droids - Episodes 12 & 13 (feat. Meigs from Meig's Odyssey!)
    2024/10/28

    It's a bittersweet episode as we bid adieu to our often beloved, often confusing Star Wars: Droids: The Adventures of R2D2 and C3PO. At least...until The Great Heap!

    And we could not have arrived at the end without the help of an incredible guest - writer, photographer, multi-fandom extraordinaire - it's Meigs, creator of Meig's Odyssey and @Meigalorian everywhere online!

    We talked to Meigs about their journey in the Star Wars fandom and other fandoms in nearby galaxies, and of course, talked about this wild show. ESPECIALLY tiny R2, the absolute best boy.

    Correction: At minute 49:42, the name Tommy was looking for was Jon Favreau, not Kevin Feige.

    Who cares though?

    We're flying SOLO in our penultimate episode covering Star Wars: Droids: The Adventures of R2D2 and C3PO, and we're taking the opportunity to reflect on our time covering this show. As chaotic as it's been, it's been SO much fun to chat with friends, new and old, and introduce them to this wild series. And, we have a couple amazing guests left on the docket...so stay tuned!

    Plus, we talk "Tail of the Roon Comets" and "The Roon Games," give our thoughts on Mungo Baobab, talk all the wild lore that comes from this episode, and announce the next show we're covering...Andor Season 1!

  • #82: Star Wars: Droids - Episodes 8 & 9 (feat. Chris Cummins from Sci-Fi Explosion!)
    2024/09/30

    Kybo gets his revenge in "The Revenge of Kybo Ren" because, sure. And Coby (who we just met in Episode 8) gets back his ... Tessellated Arboreal binjinphant (?) in "Coby and the Starhunters"

    But more importantly, we had an amazing conversation with Chris Cummins, comics writer, historian, and host of Sci-Fi explosion on Twitch! We talked to Chris about his first Archie Comic, why rescue animals are amazing (and why YOU should support your local no-kill shelter -- find yours here: bestfriends.org!), and his love of all things Sci-Fi and Star Wars.
