  • Old school non canon star wars

    Legends in their own right! These men keep the expanded universe and my imagination open and spinning each week. There devotion to the old school non canon Star Wars is pretty awesome. Fun and enjoyable. It’s not always about canon, more often it is not. But I’m a fan and feel they do a fantastic job in their world and niche! It’s a fun ride. Give them a chance and you won’t regret it!

  • Really enjoy!

    I really enjoy this podcast. The hosts seem to hold on to Legends way to much. It’s a little annoying. Other than that I recommend this podcast 100%!
