  • Exceptional Star Wars fan podcast

    Tom, Stephen and William's passion and knowledge of Star Wars is clear in every episode. They also manage to balance in-depth analysis and fun banter, making listeners feel closer to the conversation.

    Their coverage of Rebels in particular deserves praise; they notice every detail and share plenty of background/behind the scenes facts.
