It's time to answer the question we've had for months: Does Aphra really have a doctorate, and if so, what type of doctor is she, really? In this episode, we learn a lot about her history, both academic and otherwise.
Next time: Star Wars: The Scr... more
Pivot! We'll be back in two weeks with Part 1 of our Aphra coverage, but today we'll delve into our early hours with Bit Reactor's Star Wars: Zero Company. It's seemingly an excellent debut for the studio, marred only by the sale of EA to Saudi Arab... more

- simply the best
using my obvious 5 star review to give some spotlight to ali. i already knew austin, rob and natalie from elsewhere and knew how much i enjoyed listening to them but ali was an unknown to me. i’ve listened through the whole show twice now and both times have found myself consistently laughing at ali’s jokes and agreeing with her observations. i think she brings such a necessary “people-first” perspective to the discussions.
goated crew, goated show, star wars sucks and is also my favorite thing... more

Do not read this review just start listening, it’s that good. I first came to it when after Andor season 1 hit Star Wars like a thunderbolt and realized I needed more Star Wars in my life. The four hosts have incredible chemistry and all bring unique perspectives and analyses all while being incredibly funny. Whether they’re gushing over an incredible episode of Andor or skewering the most haphazard Clone Wars arc it’s phenomenal. Why are you still reading this? Start listening NOW! It’s all go... more

Apple Podcasts5wutmeanUnited Statesa month ago - Quality Star Wars podcast
Been listening to this show for a few weeks after Austin mentioned it on the Shelved by Genre podcast. I love the focus on Clone Wars, a show I haven’t watched since the final season came out. The dynamics between the four hosts is fantastic. 4 people talking about an episode or two of a tv show for an hour and a half could be chaotic, but they do a great job of balancing each other out.
Apple Podcasts5KreugerkidUnited Statesa month ago - Please Watch Farscape
UPDATING MY REVIEW because I will personally pay a great deal of money to listen to an AMCA Farscape podcast. I feel like a dog who is hearing all of his favorite words being said at once (Farscape, muppets, horny). I just know Natalie would loooove Rygel.
