- Truly Wonderful Show
Such a great show, an all time favorite of mine now. This show constantly has some of the most interesting conversations about so many things beyond the world of star Wars. I truly feel like my ability to interpret media has improved after listening to this show.

United States17 days ago - Good Show, Some Awkward Dynamics!
Really great show with tons of content to listen to and a lot of interesting opinions and perspectives, especially on Andor! The one issue I keep bumping against is how often two of the hosts, Natalie and Ali, get talked over or arbitrarily argued against, which feels like a consistent issue, though especially in more recent content where they don't speak up as often. Don't know why that's happening, love to hear from them!

Canada2 months ago Came to this as a fan of the hosts but a hater of Star Wars, and the more I learn about the franchise the more validated I feel in my stance as a hater :)
Podcast Addict53 months agoOneThousandMustardCrimes- Id rather they just write the next movie
Amusing, insightful, and rife with critiques of galactic institutions great and small. I think these folks get Star Wars on a level as to have conversations that add whole new dimensions to my understanding and love for the story, characters, and world while also lovingly tearing into the shortcomings of the works and the franchise as a whole. To top it all off you have an energetic cast of pleasant voices who all have their own fan journeys through this beloved galaxy of ours.
