  • Surprisingly good

    When I was looking for a Star Wars podcast this did not fully intrigue me, but boy was I proved wrong. These guys are incredible and have good ball knowledge. It competes with Rebel Force Radio for the best Star Wars podcast.

  • Maul: shadow lord episode review

    I thought that this show was very informative about cheeky little tidbits and fun references. Gotta love the humor and personal touch that these guys give to my favorite shows/movies! It’s very nice to finally get some people that understand the SW nerd community! I thought that you guys beautifully interpreted certain scenes, true five star podcasts are rare, but the creators of this show cultivated it perfectly, so that they can earn that five star review from all of us!
