  • Positivity!

    Getting back into Star Wars recently and was very disappointed that a lot of the fan base seem to exist just to be negative

    To think of all the Star Wars content we get now, things that were just a dream! And people say they wish these shows had never been made.

    I don’t get it!

    If you don’t like something, of course you deserve your voice to be heard. But if you go in actively looking to hate something, you’ll never like it

    That’s why I’m glad to have found this podcast. You can tell the h... more

  • Disappointed

    Used to be a die hard listener of this show for 5 years, then they got political. I don’t care about your views on LGBT and abortion, I just want to hear about Star Wars…

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Legacy
Q: What did you think about Luke's appearances and how they affected Rey's journey?
Jason and Greg describe Luke's cameos as meaningful and well-integrated, offering guidance and emphasizing the mentor role rather than mere fan service, while reinforcing Rey's need for a teacher who understands loss.
Maul - Shadow Lord
Q: Katie, after finishing the season, how do you think the portrayal of Maul has evolved compared to earlier depictions?
Maul is shown as a dynamic, fractured character who is more than a basic villain; the show gives him emotional depth, vulnerability, and a plausible path toward healing and leadership, especially through his relationship with Devon and his reactions to pain and loss.
Candice Dailey Needs A Teacher?
Q: What is your favorite piece of Star Wars music?
I walked back down the aisle to the ceremony music from the end of Episode Four, which is very meaningful to me now.
Candice Dailey Needs A Teacher?
Q: Who is your favorite Star Wars character?
My favorite character is Kanan from Rebels, as he has depth and a compelling story arc.
Candice Dailey Needs A Teacher?
Q: What is your favorite Star Wars movie?
My favorite Star Wars movie is Episode Five, Empire Strikes Back, because it still has all the magic that is Star Wars for me.
