  • Love the podcast

    I really do love this podcast. You two have great insight and are very intelligent on your assessment of episodes. With that being said please stop talking about the 3 arcs, it’s old news and the show is out now. Just take your time and watch it at your own pace. I’ll be here waiting for your next podcast episode to drop. Keep up the good work!

  • Great show, great interviews

    Really glad I found this podcast. Greg has a great delivery and enjoy his interview style. He is clearly passionate about Star Wars and card collecting without any negativity or harsh criticisms you sometimes find.

    His micro series podcast offer a unique review of shows like Bad Bath, Kenobi and Andor and are on my must listen to list after each Disney+ show airs.

    I’ve so enjoyed Greg’s Rebel Base Card podcast, so much so that I’ve listened to all 114 episodes in 50 days. His interview with Greg Hildenbrand drew me in. As an original Star Wars card collector, it’s been a great 44 year ride, and Greg hits the right topics, interviews solid guests and asks very good questions. He listens! He’s also quite humble as you can tell with his Bad Batch reviews, which is to say that the show is also very good! Looking forward to Greg diving further into interv... more
