Bogans Advocate #10 | Solo: A Star Wars Story

Mon, 10 Aug 2026 00:00:00 -0700

In this episode, we dive into another edition of "Bogan's Advocate" to take a hard look at Solo: A Star Wars Story.
To keep things interesting, we split the crew 50-50 to argue positions completely opposite of how we actually feel.
On the positive side, we give credit where it's due: the movie's gritty, classic Star Wars atmosphere, Bradford Young's dynamic cinematography, Donald Glover’s incredibly charismatic turn as Lando, and the high-stakes tension of sequence highlights like the Kessel Run.
On the critique side, we push back against some of the clunky camera choices, corny callback humor, how quickly Val was killed off, and that unfulfilled Maul cliffhanger ending. Join us for another fun an exciting adventure with our Bogan's Advocate series.

Escape Pod Reassembled: The Full Crew Returns for Trailers, Trinkets, and Tall Tales

Mon, 13 Jul 2026 00:00:00 -0700

Grab a drink (it's tradition!) and buckle into the escape pod, because the crew — Josh, Blake, Darian, Bryce, and Kirk blasting in "from down under" — is back after way too long apart for a jam-packed episode of Star Wars Escape Pod. We kick things off previewing the horror-tinged fan short Dead Echo: Tales from the 501st, dish out "Pablo points and poodoos" for the returning crew regarding The Mandalorian and Grogu, and swap "merch moments" ranging from a mysterious Japanese Empire Strikes Back theater program (complete with a cast photo that looks suspiciously like "handsome George" Lucas moonlighting as a 1900s assassin) to a Celebration flight jacket and a hotly-debated Cody helmet with questionable weathering and a rangefinder that refuses to spin. We cap off with a tease of the summer Galactic Racer multiplayer tournament we'll be having later this year.

In hindsight this may have been a Cantina Banter, but alas, the wrong button was pressed!

Goodbye to Star Wars Insider | 10 Years of Rogue One | 30 Years of Shadows of the Empire

Mon, 08 Jun 2026 02:07:12 -0700

After more than 200 issues, Star Wars Insider will end its current run in 2026.

The official Star Wars magazine first launched under the Insider moniker in 1994, part of an evolution that began with the Lucasfilm Fan Club Magazine.

In issue 237 we take a trip down memory lane with Shadows of the Empire turning 30 years old, explore kind comments from Star Wars writers and Lucasfilm employees regarding Insider. And more! This episode is dedicated to YOU Star Wars Insider. Thank you for all the years of service to our mailboxes and news stands. It's been a treat each time I've been given or bought one.

The Mandalorian and Grogu | Spoiler Review | Star Wars Back on the Big Screen!

Sun, 24 May 2026 20:21:36 -0700

Six years, five months, and a whole lot of anticipation have finally led to this moment. The Mandalorian and Grogu has officially arrived in theaters, and the Star Wars Escape Pod team is analyzing our first watch. In this episode, we go deep into spoiler territory to explore the critical narrative shift from the small screen to the silver screen, breaking down executive producer Jon Favreau's choices and mapping out where the franchise heads next with future films. Was the plot line too safe? Did the genre clash from "30s gangster beachfront palaces" to sci-fi warfare actually pull it off? We unravel the inclusion of deep-cut characters, weigh the film's legacy against Rogue One and Solo, and look ahead at what to expect from home streaming release later this year.
Clear your minds must be; this is the fun breakdown the galaxy has been waiting for. Star Wars is back in theaters!

Maul: Shadow Lord (Aftershow) #5 | Strange Allies & Finale

Mon, 11 May 2026 16:28:07 -0700

In this final after-show episode of the Star Wars Escape Pod podcast, we dive into the dramatic conclusion of Maul: Shadow Lord. We celebrate becoming founding members of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art and successfully score tickets for next year's Star Wars Celebration—despite the chaotic online queue. As we dive deep into Shadow Lord, we analyze the "scary again" version of Darth Vader, comparing his relentless, silent killing-machine persona to horror icon Jason Voorhees, while debating the physics of his robotic limbs. Between lighthearted jokes about everyone dressing up as "Dash" (from Dash Rendar to the Mrs. Dash spice) and geeking out over new Hasbro Black Series clone helmet from ATOC. Join us as we wrap up the journey through the series with plenty of "food for thought" and a look ahead to the upcoming Mandalorian and Grogu movie.

Mon, 04 May 2026 00:14:43 -0700

STAR WARS DAY 2026 is here! We always celebrate May the 4th here on Star Wars Escape Pod—boy, that is a lot of "Star Wars" for one sentence.

As usual, we’re diving into the latest news and headlines hitting the galaxy this week. Watto and Yogurt shouted "MERCHANDISING," and we came running with our annual Star Wars deals infomercial—you betcha it’s always a good time (and Phil absolutely loves this stuff).

Joining us is the fabulous crew you know and love. Leading our game tonight is our elusive and lovable co-host, Bryce, making his return to the podcast! He’s leading the gang through a narrative role-play set in the Disney boardrooms, where the group must pitch their own drafted movie ideas to Dave Filoni and George Lucas.

Little do they know, this is actually a pitch meeting and not a heist or action epic like our Episode #400 game show!

Bogans Advocate #9 | The Rise of Skywalker | Defending the Indefensible?

Mon, 06 Apr 2026 00:00:00 -0700

Join the crew of the Star Wars Escape Pod as they reach an epic conclusion of the "Bogan’s Advocate" series. In this final installment covering the Skywalker Saga, the hosts and special guest Dr. Steve Ellerhoff take on the challenge of debating the franchise's most divisive entry: The Rise of Skywalker.

Following the unique "Bogan's Advocate" format, the participants must argue against their own personal opinions. For those who disliked the film’s creative choices—such as the controversial return of Emperor Palpatine—the mission is to find the light side and celebrate the movie's strengths. Conversely, those who enjoyed the film must dig deep to find its flaws...

Bogans Advocate #8 | The Last Jedi | Defending the Sequel Trilogy’s Boldest Risks?

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 00:01:00 -0700

Prepare for a chat about the most polarizing chapter of the sequel trilogy with the Star Wars Escape Pod’s "Bogan’s Advocate" session for The Last Jedi. In this episode, the crew tackles the subversion of expectations head-on, from the startling introduction of a disillusioned Luke Skywalker to the "no-twist" revelation of Rey’s parentage. While the crew marvels at the film's top-tier cinematography and striking use of red in the Snoke's throne room duel, they don't hold back on the pacing issues of some Canto Bight events or the introduction of new Force powers. It’s a balanced, high-energy discussion that explores whether Rian Johnson’s creative risks paid off or pushed the franchise too far off the predictable path. Don't forget about the ending of our podcast as we close out with the wacky wildest chapter of Anakins lost diary we've ever seen!

Bogans Advocate #7 | The Force Awakens | Masterpiece or Nostalgia Trip?

Mon, 23 Mar 2026 10:30:34 -0700

Step into the Star Wars Escape Pod for a spirited, "Bogan’s Advocate" debate where fans take on the ultimate challenge: defending the parts of the Skywalker Saga they actually dislike. In this episode, the crew dives into The Force Awakens, grappling with whether it’s a brilliant, beautiful continuation of the franchise or a nostalgic "reboot" that plays it too safe. From praising Adam Driver’s intense performance as Ben Solo to critiquing the lightning-fast character shifts of Finn, no stone in the Jakku desert is left unturned... If there was any stones to begin with. It’s a hilarious and insightful mix of high-praise cinematography talk and honest fan frustration, perfect for anyone who has ever felt "empty inside" after a premiere—or just really loves a good Millennium Falcon skid. Don't forget to wait to the end for our next chapter of Anakins lost diary!

The Acolyte Revisited | Was It Actually Genius?

Mon, 16 Mar 2026 00:00:00 -0700

In this episode of the Star Wars Escape Pod, Josh is joined by co-host Blake and friends Dan and Matt to revisit and re-evaluate the Disney+ series, The Acolyte. A year after the show's initial release, the crew provides fresh perspectives by reviewing the season through both release and chronological viewing orders.
Dive deep into the series' technical execution, critiquing the "clunky" editing and forgettable musical score while praising the standout choreography of episode five. The team also explores the show’s controversial lore implications, including the appearance of Darth Plagueis, the origins of the Knights of Ren, and Vernestra Rwoh’s cover-up of the Jedi murders. Whether you're a fan of the High Republic era or a skeptic of the series' creative choices, tune in for a comprehensive breakdown of what worked, what failed, the missed opportunities of The Acolyte, and most importantly... was there underlying actually genius?

Bogans Advocate #5 | The Empire Strikes Back | The Mandalorian & Grogu Trailer 2!

Wed, 04 Mar 2026 02:14:21 -0800

Welcome back! The "Mandalorian and Grogu" trailer has finally hit YouTube, and the crew is here to analyze every frame like a pack of hungry Jawas. After a year of waiting, the Razorcrest is back (with some snazzy new yellow accents!), and the hype is reaching lightspeed.

A Cinematic Cameo?: Is that legendary director Martin Scorsese we hear as an alien? We debate the surprising (and hilarious) possibility of this Hollywood titan joining the Star Wars universe.

Bogan's Advocate: The Empire Strikes Back: It’s time to tap into the Dark Side. We take on the impossible task of finding "nitpicks" in what many consider the greatest Star Wars film ever made.

The Wampa Debate: Why the original horror-inspired cut might be superior to the Special Edition.

That Infamous Kiss: Our crew weighs in on the Luke and Leia moment that aged... interestingly.

The Masterpiece: We celebrate the stop-motion magic of Phil Tippett and the timeless score that defines the saga.

Bogans Advocate #3 | Revenge of the Sith | Force Collector Mini-Review

Mon, 16 Feb 2026 00:00:00 -0800

Welcome back to the Star Wars Escape Pod! In this installment of our "Bogan’s Advocate" series, we dive deep into the final chapter of the prequel trilogy: Revenge of the Sith. The rules of the game remain the same—we challenge our own perspectives by finding things to love in movies we might dislike, or offering "friendly criticism" of the films we absolutely adore.

Before we get into the main event, Blake shares a mini-review of his recent journey through Force Collector, a junior novel set shortly before The Force Awakens. We discuss the "campy" nature of junior fiction and debate the convenience of a main character whose psychometric abilities lead him to artifacts from the most pivotal moments in George Lucas’s films.

Bogans Advocate #2 | Attack of the Clones | Maul: Shadow Lord Trailer

Sun, 01 Feb 2026 23:13:48 -0800

Hold onto your lekku, because this week we’re abandoning ship and diving straight into the Dark Side.
First up, we’re dissecting the brand-new trailer for Maul: Shadow Lord. Is Disney finally growing a pair and giving us a true villain protagonist, or are they just going to "Cruella-fy" our favorite horn-headed Sith? We’re breaking down Maul’s mysterious new "Acolyte" (could it be a canonized Darth Talon?), the "Inquisitor-lite" vibes of the new visual style, and why this show might finally bridge the 10-year gap between the Clone Wars fallout and his "ruler of the underworld" era in Solo.

Then, the main event: Bogan’s Advocate returns.

We’re putting Attack of the Clones on trial. Is it a misunderstood masterpiece of political intrigue, or just two hours of CGI sand and awkward flirting? Our guests Blake and Dan join the fray to defend the indefensible and debate whether Maul and Ahsoka could have actually saved the galaxy if they’d just stopped arguing about Anakin for five minutes.

Bogans Advocate #1 | The Phantom Menace

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 00:00:00 -0800

It’s time to play the ultimate Star Wars devil’s advocate. In this episode of Star Wars Escape Pod, we are debuting "Bogan's Advocate"—a challenge to depreciate the movies we love and find good in the things we didn't. Problem is we all love Episode I, but is it perfect? In our first episode of "Bogan's Advocate"—the crew breaks down the Binks slapstick, the missed opportunities with Count Dooku, and the polarizing length of the Podrace.

Cantina Banter #6 | Quantic Dream, The Studio Behind Star Wars Eclipse

Tue, 02 Dec 2025 16:39:25 -0800

Are our choices really our own? Join your host as they dive deep into the interactive drama and intricate choice architecture of Quantic Dream's most ambitious narrative experiences: Beyond: Two Souls and Detroit: Become Human.

We break down our own distinct playthroughs—from Jodie's supernatural path and Aiden's presence to the diverging fates of Connor, Markus, and Kara—to unpack the studio's storytelling style.

By analyzing the themes of destiny, deviancy, and moral ambiguity in these two games, what can we truly expect from the developer's upcoming High Republic action-adventure, Star Wars Eclipse?

Will the Outer Rim's destiny be forged by free will or a hidden narrative tether? We speculate on the future of choice-based gameplay in a galaxy far, far away!

Star Wars Visions Vol 3 | Review | Returning to the Hits & More Wacky Worlds

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 00:00:00 -0800

If there's anything new coming out with a Star Wars label lately, it's Visions Volume 3 on Disney plus. This wacky volume of stories using the Star Wars license might not have any place within the canon, but it is a treat to see what a variety of anime studios can do if they smash thier heads together and fuse Star Wars with the world of Anime.
This week we sit down to chat about the entire volume, how we thought about each short, some being continuations to Volume 1, we take a look at how well they do to continue thier respective stories. Visions can be hit or miss, but we give a fair pablo points and poodoos as usual for each of these one by one. Don't forget about our podcast archives spreadsheet that tracks all these scores from the team!

We're also talking about the internet buzz surrounding the shelved Ben Solo movie, The Hunt for Ben Solo. Add that to the list of RIP Star Wars...
Hear our take on Adam Driver's recent comments, why Disney turned down the script, and the eternal question: should dead characters stay dead?

Plus, we catch you up about Twin Sun Film Foundation (the minds behind the Bucket Heads fan series) to discuss their new platform, twinsunfilm.org, and their exciting slate of upcoming fan films for the next few years, including The Void, Gonk, and Nightfall! Finally, get all the details on how YOU can get involved in our huge 400th episode: a Star Wars Fantasy Draft Game Show Night! Darian, our gamemaker and co-host for Episode #400 explains the rules, the character categories (Pilot, Force User, Droid and Alien), the ultimate objective (breaking into Palpatine's Vault on Pillio), and how your votes can decide the winning team!
Thanks for coming along for the ride. Leave us a comment or a 5-star review, it always helps. Subscribe on YouTube, and we'll see you for Episode 400!

From there, a massive spoiler alarm and dive deep into the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle video game, revealing the mind-blowing final treasure. The galactic news is just as exciting, covering the record-breaking $3.6 million auction price for Darth Vader's lightsaber, the confirmed return of everyone's favorite pirate Hondo Ohnaka, and a debate on the bizarre new wedge-shaped LEGO Death Star.

Jung and Star Wars: A Contemporary Mythology by S.G. Ellerhoff (Phd) | (Special Guest)

Mon, 01 Sep 2025 00:00:00 -0700

This week on the Escape Pod, we're joined by special guest Dr. Steve Ellerhoff to explore the deep psychological and mythological roots of Star Wars, as detailed in his new book, "Jung and Star Wars". We explore how Carl Jung's concepts of archetypes, the unconscious, and synchronicity are woven into the very fabric of the saga—from the nature of the Force and Anakin's tragic nightmares to the hidden symbolism in Luke's Jedi robes and the powerful Dyad between Rey and Kylo. Prepare for another happy landing into the deepest lore of the galaxy!

Cantina Banter #3 | SDCC 2025 - Lucas Museum Coming Soon | New Publishing & More

Mon, 18 Aug 2025 00:00:00 -0700

This week on the podcast, hosts Josh and Blake, joined by their friend Darian, are discussing the latest Star Wars news from San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC). George Lucas's first Comic-Con appearance since 1976 to promote his upcoming Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, which will feature a vast collection of pop culture artifacts.

Our conversation shifts to Star Wars collectibles, including new Hasbro Black Series action figures and the new crowdfunding campaign for a highly-detailed, three-and-three-quarter-inch scale Republic Gunship. The Lucasfilm publishing announcements for upcoming books and comics, such as a Darth Grievous hyperspace story, a prequel novel for the Star Wars Outlaws video game, and a comic series introducing a new "boogeyman" character called the Nightlander.

Lastly, we dive into the cancellation of the Acolyte series, debating whether it was due to low viewership or the inflated budget? We also briefly discuss Josh's experience playing the new Indiana Jones and the Great Circle video game and their thoughts on spinoff shows.

Skeleton Crew Ep 7 (Aftershow) | We Researched And Mathed The TRUE Runtimes...

Mon, 13 Jan 2025 00:02:36 -0800

The penultimate episode for Skeleton Crew! We got loads to talk about this week and lots to speculate on! ALSO I researched each and every episode on Disney plus, by hand, calculated the runtime of each episode minus the credits, Lucasfilm logo, star wars intro, and "previously on" flashback to figure out which of these shows have delivered gold standard runtimes or not... Skeleton Crew is loosing the race, just a heads up. But in other news its been interesting to see which shows have the longest episodes and which stay above an average 35 min minimum. Check out and save the link below!!
It's also been added to our linktree.

Book Summary:

Why are the Star Wars films so popular? Of course, viewers love the characters, the plot, the music, and the special effects. However, there is a deeper reason why these films resonate with audiences: Star Wars contains universal truths—principles that are "true for all time, all places and all people." The same principles can be found in religions and philosophies throughout the world, including the Vedic tradition of ancient India, Buddhism, Taoism, Sikhism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Native American/First Nations beliefs.

In One with the Force: 18 Universal Truths in Star Wars, Krista Noble explores these principles. She delves into a rich array of topics, from the Force to collective consciousness, and from enlightenment to immortality. Readers will see that the philosophy of the Jedi doesn’t only apply "in a galaxy far, far away"; it is also highly relevant to everyday living. Like Luke Skywalker, we should all look within to discover the deepest truths of life, pursue our individual destinies, and strive to reach our full potential as human beings. In these ways, we can embody the wisdom of the Jedi.

Advance praise (if there's room to include it):

"An intriguing addition to Star Wars scholarship, which reveals the timeless substructure underpinning the space-age saga. If you watched the Star Wars movies with a feeling in your bones that you were seeing something unfold that was not merely the product of modern creative storytellers but something ancient and powerful, this book will tell you why."

—Joe Holland, Instructor of Consciousness & Human Potential, Maharishi International University

"One with the Force reveals why Star Wars touches the souls of its fans, showing that this iconic film series has much more to it than meets the eye. Noble’s book expounds on the universal principles in Star Wars that inspire us and sustain the cosmos."

—Marci Shimoff, #1 NY Times bestselling author of Happy for No Reason and Chicken Soup for the Woman's Soul

"This lucid study takes up a topic dear to my heart—the uses of fiction as a wisdom path—and traces essential principles from South Eastern and other traditions of wisdom and spirit appearing in Star Wars. The parallels mentioned by the author are evocative and even archetypal. The image of a path of spirituality emphasizing balance, experience, mindful action, and unity found in difference speaks strongly to our time of culture wars and increased questioning of traditional creeds."

—Craig Chalquist, PhD, author of Soulmapper

"Krista Noble's insightful presentation of the Star Wars trilogy highlights and magnifies the inherent nobility of this blockbuster film series, as she unearths and identifies age-old universal principles of life and living embedded in the story. Noble's book provides a happy hunting ground for exploring the profound truths of the world's cultural, spiritual, and religious traditions. A magnificent read!"

—Dr. Judy Booth, retired faculty member at Maharishi International University, continuing to serve in an advisory capacity

Dooku: Jedi Lost | The Tragic Downfall of a Great Jedi Master

Thu, 12 Sep 2024 23:40:43 -0700

Dooku Serenno, the name of a character that so many Jedi and politicians alike both admired and respected.
Those of us who know the character have come to know him definitively in his darkest days portrayed by the great Christopher Lee. Or to the animated star wars fans out there, Corey Burton. This week we dive inside an audiobook called "Dooku: Jedi Lost" which provides an inside look at the life and legend of Count Dooku in his younger years growing up as a Jedi apprentice to Grand Master Yoda, his friendship and alliance to Sifo-Dias, and the discovery of his birth right, his noble status of wealth and power. Dooku is one of the most complex characters in the Star Wars universe and it's been very exciting to dive into this story and his downfall.

Darth Plagueis (Hego Damask) | What Happened

Tue, 06 Aug 2024 23:36:13 -0700

"Have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise?" Join us as we delve deep into the legend of one of the most enigmatic Sith Lords, Hego Damask, better known as Darth Plagueis.

Based on the tantalizing tale Palpatine shares with Anakin in Revenge of the Sith, Star Wars author James Luceno brought this sinister character to life in his 2012 novel. This episode of What Happened is a unique exploration, combining a deep dive into Darth Plagueis with a comprehensive novel review.

Given that Plagueis is primarily a literary character, we’re stepping into Legends territory for this one. But fear not, Acolyte fans! We’ll be tying up loose ends and offering theories on that mind-boggling Easter egg.

To celebrate this special episode, we've introduced new artwork for all What Happened episodes. We hope you enjoy this journey into the dark side!

As always, your ratings and shares fuel our passion for creating this podcast. Thank you for your continued support!

What Happened!? Your essential Star Wars character deep dive.

In each episode, we unravel the complete story of a beloved character, from their first appearance to their latest exploits. From the big screen to the comic book page, no stone is left unturned as we chronologically explore every facet of their galactic journey. Join us for an in-depth look at the characters you love.

Asajj Ventress | What Happened

Tue, 30 Jul 2024 00:00:00 -0700

Slave. Apprentice. Assassin. Nightsister. Bounty Hunter. Death. Resurrection.
Asajj Ventress has a unique story and a one of a kind place in the galaxy. Our What Happened sub series has finally got around to exploring her story and her past. When her re-emergence came up in The Bad Batch it was a character that really needed this treatment. With The Acolyte having come out so soon after The Bad Batch Season 3 we've delayed this episode to premiere afterwards at some point. We hope you all enjoy, and share this with a friend who might need to catch up on Ventress's story.

What Happened!? A Star Wars Escape Pod sub-series.
With each episode, "What Happened" provides a full catch up about specific character under the spotlight. You don't miss a beat, we includes just about every appearance of the character in our subject from the (canon) comics, novels, shows, and the films of course! And provide a chronological recap of their story in the galaxy far, far away (to date of podcast publish).

THE ACOLYTE Aftershow | What Is Cortosis & What Makes That Duel Great | Sith OR Ren?

Fri, 28 Jun 2024 01:11:19 -0700

THAT was a good episode, not one of us at escape pod thought otherwise. And sure it's not perfect but dang that choreography work was insane! The design of the dark warrior is not yet confirmed in the story as a Sith or what, but whatever he is, outside of the show, he is known as "The Stranger". So what made his armor deflect energy from those lightsabers? Let's chat about Cortosis, the events of the duel, an interview from EW on the series and of course the recent hot debate... Ren or Sith? Let us know your theories!

The Bad Batch Aftershow (3.9) | Ventress Resurrected? | Do The Special Editions Improvements To Older Fans?

Mon, 01 Apr 2024 00:00:00 -0700

She's back! Ventress has been resurrected somehow, we dive deep into this episode of the bad batch. There's a lot to get into here, debating ressurecting characters, some deserve it and some don't. Those who have completed the Clone Wars journey and read Dark Disciple will know exactly how her fate wound up.. or do we?

Asajj Ventress was a whirlwind of rage and sorrow. Betrayal carved a cavern in her heart, leaving only a burning desire for revenge. Consumed by the dark side, she craved power, a twisted echo of the strength she yearned for as a Jedi Padawan. Yet, beneath the fury flickered a flicker of vulnerability. The sting of rejection by Dooku, the echo of her master's death, hinted at a complex soul trapped in a web of vengeance. There were moments, fleeting and fragile, where one could glimpse the warrior yearning for redemption, a warrior haunted by the ghosts of what could have been. And along came Quinlan Vos. The redeeming event in her life. It's unfortunate people could not see this story play out on screen, but I urge listeners out there to read through Dark Disciple. It's not only one of the greatest star wars stories told, clone wars episodes produced (in a novel), but it's one of the best endings for a character we ever saw.

We've had a wild ride hosting a Star Wars podcast these last few years, shout out to those of your who've been listening since the start - we're so lucky to have you continue tuning in! As many of you know, we've be podcasting either way, but it's having an audience that gives us more reason and more drive to keep doing it because we're doing it for you too. Thank you again to our volunteer staff at Star Wars Escape Pod and those who were able to join tonight, Blake and Kirk.

How Dark Horse Forged The EU | A 90’s Lookback | (Special Guest) Adam Braverman!

Mon, 08 Jan 2024 00:00:00 -0800

There was once a time fans referred to as "the dark times" just as Obi Wan Kenobi did to Luke when he spoke of the Empire. In this case, it was a large space of time where hardly to no Star Wars content was coming out. Long behold our saviour, Dark Horse Comics and Timothy Zahn. Special guest Adam joins us once again from our "Bucketheads" podcast episode to chat all about the 90's Star Wars content and what it meant for the IP. The title was essentially "saved" by these stories which forged the EU, stories that still drive narrative today...

Join Blake, Bryce and Josh as we read through a 10 page "fan fiction outline" by the recognized author of previous Star Wars novels - Alan Dean Foster. Join us as we laugh our way through this hilarious and interesting outline for Episode 9 if Alan had it his way. As we all know, Colin Trevorrow was supposed to write and direct Episode 9.

Star Wars Visions Vol 2 | Review | Global Cultural Takes On ”The Star Wars”

Tue, 06 Jun 2023 00:14:09 -0700

It's been interesting to see how Japanese cinema and cultural influences inspired George Lucas when he made Star Wars, and with Volume 1 of Visions the effect was reversed. Star Wars ip was given to Japanese anime studios with free creative control to do what they wished, to make thier star wars story and push the boundaries in new and unreal ways that dont need to make sense in the saga we're enamoured by. To make something fresh and new but different. Volume 2 is no different, but on a new playing field with the ip given to animation studios around the world.
Today we look at Visions Vol 2 and review each episode and provide our thoughts, feedback and scores - and pick our favorites of course. What are your thoughts on Vol 2? And which one did you like the most??

Sat, 08 Apr 2023 02:25:42 -0700

Not only did we finally get a trailer for Ahsoka, but we got a new one for Indy 5 as well! And oh.. by the way, Dave Filoni is directing a Star Wars movie. THAT'S FRICKEN RIGHT! Lucasfilm announced 2 entire new eras to the canon book ending the saga and also slipped in a hidden era we all are very familiar with but possibly put it there for the sake of a future announcement?

Fans will see movies in Dawn of the Jedi era, The New Republic, and New Jedi Order eras. Daisy Ridley returning as Rey and expansion on the origins of the Jedi by James Mangold? We got lots to break down here. Start tuning in each day for recaps of Celebration news, and of course stay tuned to the Discord in those Celebration channels to see daily transcribes of the live streams!

The Jedi Who Saved Grogu: Kelleran Beq ”The Sabered Hand” | The Mandalorian (3.4) ”The Foundling” & The Bad Batch (2.14) ”Turning Point”

Tue, 28 Mar 2023 00:00:44 -0700

"The Sabered Hand" would have been an appropriate name for this episode rather than the foundling, as it's exactly what this episode will be remembered for, however it may have spoiled the surprise.. Kelleran Beq.. ahem Ahmed Best returns to Star Wars with his character first featured in Jedi Temple Challenge! We absolutely love Ahmed and remember him fondly as Jar Jar Binks.

The Bad Batch returns with an episode on track to set us up for an epic finale at Mount Tantiss and a redeemed Crosshair who is now doing what he can to save Omega.

YouTini is approaching the Round 4 level so let's look at the latest matches and see which books were chosen! What book are you rooting for?

The Zeffo - Ancient & Extinct... Was THAT Theirs? | The Bad Batch (2.5) ”Entombed” | Aftershow

Tue, 31 Jan 2023 01:29:28 -0800

The Zeffo, also known as the Zeffonians, were an ancient sentient species native to the planet Zeffo. They were also introduced to us in Jedi: Fallen Order, a game which has a sequel coming at us in a few weeks time from now. SO, what was that giant mech-beast? Or more accuratly, who's was it? Who designed it, and to DO what? Did this have something to do with the Zeffo's extinction? Originally acting as a parrable to the fate of the Jedi Order in the video game, maybe this ancient civilization has more stories to come in the star wars lore.

This past week delivered us a very Indiana Jones-esk episode of The Bad Batch which we dive into first! Followed by:

Saw Gerrera | What Happened

Fri, 26 Aug 2022 00:00:00 -0700

Saw Gerrera is a character hard to keep track of in his small appearances across Star Wars, known mainly as the Rebel extremist, to others a terrorist. What kind of horrors can we expect him to see or experience in the upcoming Disney+ series Andor we don't know, but atrocities to the innocent in his fight against the Empire and as a key figure in the early rebellion I'm sure we will witness such things. Join Josh and Blake as they undergo an overlook and a lookback at the entire (so far) character arc of Saw Gerrera as we prepare for Star Wars: Andor!!!

Mon, 09 May 2022 02:13:46 -0700

Obi-Wan Kenobi is around the corner! But who are those villains? The Inquisitors helped Vader hunt down the remaining Jedi after the purge, in the Obi-Wan Kenobi show we will be seeing a story unfold 10 years later which takes place between episode 3 and 4. At this point, the Inquisitors are at their prime and they have been around for a while hunting Jedi. We've seen them in Star Wars Rebels, Fallen Order, "Ahsoka" (by EK Johnson), and "Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith" (by Charles Soule). But who are they really? What happened to them? Where did they come from and who's idea was it? What do we need to now BEFORE and AFTER Obi-Wan Kenobi takes place? Let's get into it.

What Happened!? A Star Wars Escape Pod sub-series.

Thu, 14 Apr 2022 23:49:04 -0700

We all imagine moments in Star Wars that could have gone differently, weather it's a character line, a story plot, or even a whole cancelled project that nearly happened and didn't. Today we are talking the biggest missed opportunities that could have made Star Wars for the better, moments we never got spanning across the series. These aren't moments that didn't just happen, they're moments and things which ALMOST happened, which makes it even more crazy that they didn't!

Cad Bane | What Happened

Sun, 03 Apr 2022 22:10:12 -0700

He's got blue skin, red eyes, a hat the size of Captain America's shield, and a voice as growly as a wolverine. Not to mention all the gadgets that would certainly make any bounty hunter drool over. His name is Cad Bane, one of the galaxy's deadliest bounty hunters and most infamous for getting his jobs done. Today we look at this character under the spotlight in every piece of story he's shown up before (to date). Let's dive into the character of Cad Bane and catch up on what his story looks like BEFORE Episode I all the way up to The Book of Boba Fett.

What Happened!? A Star Wars Escape Pod sub-series.
With each episode, "What Happened" provides a full catch up about specific character under the spotlight. You don't miss a beat, we include every appearance of the character in our subject from the (canon) comics, novels, shows, and the films of course! And provide a chronological recap of their story in the galaxy far, far away (to date of podcast publish).

The Book of Boba Fett | Chapter 7 ”In the Name of Honor”

Fri, 11 Feb 2022 01:13:48 -0800

In the name of honor! We give to you this super sized fun packed episode as we breakdown and review the finale episode of The Book of Boba Fett. Who's to say we won't get a season 2 but for now that remains a mystery. There was so much packed into this finale that we honestly had a critics moment about the fact it wasn't a two parter. Regardless, the show goes out with a bang, and we have lots to share about Cad Bane's return and final standoff with Boba Fett, a saga wide rivalry / mentorship relationship as well as the secret as to why Cad Bane seems different now and so on. The Rancor v Droid battle which was badass and so much more.. but you don't want to read this all day, just hit play and give this episode the listenership it deserves!! ;)

And sharing with your friends, rating a healthy 5 star and writing a raving review helps us tremendously.

In 1978 CBS made an arrangement with Lucas that would forever be the most mocked holiday tradition on TV in history, at least within the star wars community. Lucas was busy moving his production company to a new location when it all went down so no credit goes to George for this atrocity. Apologies to those who love the holiday special. Today we commentary over this glorious failure and take a dive into the trenches of the star wars fandom with this CBS special. Bear with us, strap in your seatbelts and lock in those headphones as we venture through the painful and most boring star wars film of all time. "Star Wars Holiday Special"

Star Wars: Eclipse | The Bogan Collection | ”The Return” Boba Teaser Breakdown

Mon, 13 Dec 2021 00:00:00 -0800

The High Republic has a very story centric game coming to consoles and PC in the future. We got a full BREAKDOWN of the cinematic trailer right here in this episode and we're of course very excited for this development happening with Star Wars: Eclipse. The Book of Boba Fett is right around the corner, about 2 weeks away, and the latest teaser trailer called "The Return" gives us further insight into the show's plot points and where they might take the fan favorite bounty hunter in his travels - let's break that down and speculate!

The Bogan Collection is a secret archive of Sith artifacts hidden in the Jedi Temple, today we dive into what's in there and how it plays up into the narrative of the Jedi as well as when this collection has showed up. Did you know about a sith temple beneath the Jedi temple? Or the fact they stored sith artifacts in the temple? It's worth chatting about, let's find out why.

Ben Solo / Kylo Ren | What Happened

Mon, 08 Nov 2021 00:12:32 -0800

The story of Ben Solo is complicated, and the movies don't exactly do this character justice as far as a complete story arc goes, we got to dig deeper, look at the novels and comics, and games for the rest of the answers we seek. Despite the films including Ben as a main character, he is portrayed primarily as a villain. Unlike the story of Anakin Skywalker, we begin to perceive him as a bad guy over a good guy. The focus of the sequel trilogy was on Rey, and today we want to dedicate an entire episode to walking through the life and legend of Ben Solo! You don't want to miss this one.

RIP Star Wars | Cancelled Movies & TV from over the years with many tears...

Thu, 30 Sep 2021 02:27:06 -0700

Our last RIP Star Wars was a tribute to honor the fallen in the Star Wars video games category. This week we honor the fallen shows and films we never got. As fans it's always a heart breaking subject to even mention the fact that George Lucas's sequel trilogy was tossed aside in favor of the films we got from Disney, but more than those three were victims. Did you know there was a live action TV Show in the works by Lucas himself in 2007? Or the cancelled EWOKS III TV Movie? Ever hear of the Boba Fett film by Josh Trank or that trilogy that was supposed to be done by the Game of Thrones guys? Rangers of the New Republic?! There's been quite a few and more which we're breaking down today only on Star Wars Escape Pod.

This sub series called RIP Star Wars is dedicated to all the star wars we never got! There's been so many cancelled projects over the years you could fill the Imperial databanks on Scarif with them! Today we go down the list and talk about each item we found to be cancelled, pulled or unreleased. And of course an honorable mention to the current and upcoming games that are going to be very relevant soon. Fingers crossed that they also do not take a trip to level 1313 where all the other dead games exist!

Bad Batch 14 Review | Gregor Lives! Republic Commando’s | The Proto-Stormtrooper

Tue, 03 Aug 2021 23:53:00 -0700

A new phase of the trooper has been introduced to star wars canon! Before the Stormtroopers, we had THIS! It's really cool to see a new hybrid phase introduced to the standard trooper helmet lineup. Before the day is done, I hope to Hasbro they make this helmet a reality!

It was fantastic to see Gregor in all his glory return to star wars, alive and kooky as ever from his explosion in times past. It's a wonder we are only 2 episodes from the finish line and still so many questions we have which could use some answers. Most recent one being, what will happen to Hunter? Let's chat all about this latest bad batch episode and a bit more star wars news at the end.

Bad Batch 13 Review | Could Bariss Return to Star Wars? | The Pykes

Mon, 26 Jul 2021 22:22:44 -0700

The Bad Batch has gone Oceans 11 when they help Cid steal some spice to get Roland in trouble with the Pykes. This was an unexpected turn of a plot after we left off with Cross-Hair on the hunt. But nonetheless we found the return of the Pykes a curious choice. Could this have something to do with Solo? Will there be tie ins to that film and the characters there? ALSO, Could Bariss Offee return to "Ahsoka" or "The Bad Batch"?

Bad Batch 12 Review | Howzer Could Be VERY Important | Crosshair - Hero or Villain?

Wed, 21 Jul 2021 22:02:15 -0700

Josh, and our guest host, Darian, discuss the latest Bad Batch episode, returning to the Ryloth story arc we pick up where things left off with the Syndulla family in captivity. Hera calls the bad batch for help and Omega has them answer the call. This was a perfect way to cap an origin story for Hera. How will Howzer play into the story later? Is his chip broken? Or did it never get activated? Further more, could he have overcome it and be a reason to why all the clones are no longer produced by Kamino later? It's a lingering question this show will answer at some point. Crosshair, will he die a hero or has he lived long enough to really become the villain and stay that way? We even go as far as talking about the possibilities that could have come from the unproduced sequels. Listen in on this great episode. Darian will return.

Echo (CT-1490) | What Happened | War of the Bounty Hunters from MARVEL

Mon, 07 Jun 2021 00:01:00 -0700

Echo is known as one of the heroic ARC trooper's in Star Wars: The Clone Wars to give his life in service of the Republic at the citadel. Only to return as a lab experiment and a mutilated body to show for when Clone Force 99 breaks him out of the Techno Union. Let's take a deep dive into this amazing character, what happened in his life so far in the saga, where he's been, and what he's going through that affects him when we catch up with him in The Bad Batch. Also, a new MARVEL comics run / crossover has arrived! Let's speculate what that's all about and how it might even connect to The Book of Boba Fett.

The What Happened sub-series!?
With each episode of What Happened you'll be listening to a full catch up and in-depth conversation about specific characters and their story threads woven into the star wars saga. Don't miss a beat as we include every appearance of them in the (canon) comics, novels, shows, and the films of course!

The sixth episode of the bad batch brought us to Corellia of all places and brought in some familiar faces!

Bad Batch 1 Review | CLONE WARS CONTINUES!! | Inconsistencies in Canon?

Sat, 15 May 2021 02:29:13 -0700

The Bad Batch has premiered! Of course we look forward to the After-Show down the road with aftershow-host Diego (featured from our 40 part clone wars talk series). Until then, Blake and Josh have much to say on the weekly release of each bad batch episode going forward. Today we kick off with the premiere length Bad Batch MOVIE we had launch on May 4th. There was plenty to chat about today.

We also acknowledged Kanan's appearance as Caleb Dume (his real name) and the inconsistencies with the Kanan comic series, which was the original canon story that explained his origin. What other inconsistencies have happened from page to screen so far? We talked about those today too.

Also, stay tuned to the end for a special word and announcement regarding the podcast, rebels talk, the bad batch talk, and more from our Host to you, our special listeners. Thank you for tuning into our podcast and choosing Star Wars Escape Pod.

Bo-Katan | What Happened

Mon, 26 Apr 2021 03:01:00 -0700

Introduced to us in "Star Wars: The Clone Wars", and then "Star Wars: Rebels", and "The Mandalorian" Bo-Katan has been a fan favorite character for years, played by the amazing Katee Sackoff, it's been excellent to see her go from playing her in animation to live action screen. But what has this character's arc been like, and where has she been in the overall saga through these multiple shows and interweaving stories? ALSO What can we expect from future star wars shows and films?

If you're unsure what Star Wars Legends is, we breakdown not only what that is compared to the canon, but also how the stories and timeline events differ. Notable stories can be found in each chronology as well as different names for the eras involved with those stories. This SUPER sized episode contains an intermission in the middle to break it up into two sections. The first half covers Legends and the second half covers Canon. There's so many great star wars stories out there that need to be acknowledged and this felt like a great way to get into all that content in a compact format.

Clone Wars v The Clone Wars | Comparing & Breakdown

Mon, 29 Mar 2021 00:30:00 -0700

Star Wars: Clone Wars (2003) by Genndy Tartakovsky, bridged the gap between Episode II and Episode III. It was prominently known as the only animated bridge between films at the time until we had the debut of Star Wars: The Clone Wars in 2008 which is known today as a 7 season show on Disney plus (almost 8 before cancellation in 2013). 2003's Clone Wars (also known as the micro-series) has been remembered fondly by many star wars fans around the globe and has also been greatly respected as a work of 2D art in the animation community. Today, we break down what that show provided for us as fans and how it bridged the gap at the time of release / telling stories of the clone wars before Revenge of the Sith was on screens. How does it compare to the cinematic style 3D animated show Star Wars: The Clone Wars which introduced the likes of Ahsoka and Rex into the canon in 2008 onwards. Let's get into it.

Ahsoka Tano | What Happened

Mon, 22 Mar 2021 05:05:00 -0700

Known to many from "Star Wars: The Clone Wars", "Star Wars: Rebels", E.K. Johnsons "Ahsoka" novel, and of course "The Mandalorian" as well as her voice cameo in "The Rise of Skywalker". This character has been on a roller coaster journey, from the start when star wars fans were not too sure about her, but today she is a fan favorite character and has worked her way into the hearts of millions. Start to finish we break down Ahsoka's story arcs and key moments through her life, going from being the apprentice to the Chosen One, to something even greater. Let's dive into the full story [so far] of Ahsoka Tano.

This is a non-profit show, however we do ask to help share us around via word of mouth and leaving a fantastic review to bring in more listeners.

Star Wars: A Test of Courage | Review | Balance of the Force | The High Republic

Mon, 15 Mar 2021 00:01:00 -0700

Taking place 200 years before Episode I, the second novel in the High Republic series targets towards junior readers but it's not to be underestimated, this is a GOOD STAR WARS story, if you have not read the book this is a spoiler style discussion for both A Test of Courage and Light of the Jedi (if you have not listened to our previous High Republic discussions).

THERE'S MORE: A line in the novel sparked questions about what the balance of the force really is, what it means, and how justice plays into all that as well as in the prequels with the desolation of the Jedi. In classic Star Wars Escape Pod fashion let's break this down and figure it out.
What does the balance of the force mean to you?
How did you like "Star Wars: A Test of Courage" by Justina Ireland
Contact us using methods at the bottom of the description and let us know!

This is a non-profit show, but we do ask to help share it via word of mouth and by leaving a fantastic review!

The Star Bores podcast (Peter and Iain) join Josh in the Escape Pod to chat about the Mandalorian season 2 that is finally completed and wrapped.

Josh will show on the Star Bores podcast for a cross over as well so be sure to check that out when it comes up. You can follow Iain and Peter on social media here:

Star Wars 2020 | Retrospective

Wed, 30 Dec 2020 07:30:00 -0800

2020 has been a crazy insane year. Let's face it, it sucked. But what didn't suck was all the cool Star Wars stuff we got from Disney / Lucasfilm! Dreams came true when Clone Wars season 7 launched and Bad Batch was announced. Mandalorian had it's second season, resistance came to a close with season 2 and we had multiple star wars VR video games launch as well! Between book launches and announcements and new content on Disney plus we ended up having a force filled year beyond that of any other! In a way. Although Celebration being cancelled was kind of a bummer. Let's chat with Josh and Blake in the escape pod for one last ride in 2020 before we head lightspeed into 2021.

2020, it's time to say goodbye. May the force be with you all!

THE MANDALORIAN | Chapter 15 “The Believer” | Mayfelds Redemption

Tue, 15 Dec 2020 21:54:36 -0800

What a great episode! Directed by Rick Famuyiwa, both intense action and adventure filled. Had major solo train heist vibes all over. Bill Burr's Mayfeld has fantastic character moments in this one. Of course we are introduced to Valin Hess, a creepy Imperial officer who is played by the same actor as Game of Thrones the night king! Not to mention, that insane SEISMIC CHARGE action at the end! "hehehe" - Boba
Let's break down this second last episode of THE MANDALORIAN season 2 together!
We also chat about the new upcoming DISNEY plus series, and speculate a bit on some of that news.

SO. The Disney Investor Day happened... breath, breath, breathing, I keep telling myself.

We got quite the wide array of projects to chat about and NOTHING is missed in this episode of the podcast. We listen to the coverage of Kathleen Kennedy announce the slated projects, have a chat about them and of course break down what some of these projects could hold. Let's dive right in!

We've been waiting a long time to see Boba Fett in some real on screen live action, action.. You know, without it ending in him diving head first into a sarlaac pit. Well this is the episode, brought to us by the director of "Spy Kids" and "Sharkboy and Lavagirl" comes a new episode of "The Mandalorian", chills all over this one!

THE MANDALORIAN | Chapter 13 “The Jedi” | Ahsoka Tano

Mon, 30 Nov 2020 23:38:29 -0800

I can't believe the day has come to chat about a live action Ahsoka Tano, watching all the animated shows has really started to pay off! We'll catch you guys up on her story a bit and chat about where she was and what's happened since, but my only recommendation is to watch Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars: Rebels to really get the full picture and story. Us sharing this info is not the same. George Lucas put a lot of care into creating the Clone Wars for a good reason, it's just as much Lucasfilm as his films are.
Ahsoka really stole the show in this episode, and it's exciting to think we might even see her again. Some minor complaints to share but still really cool to see her.

What are your theories as to what will happen? Send us an email! Let's chat some Mandalorian...

THE MANDALORIAN | Chapter 12 “The Siege” | Snoke’s Origins?!

Tue, 24 Nov 2020 01:31:20 -0800

I think we just saw Snoke. A mangled body and a deep choir monk song in the background... I got a bad feeling about this... But also a very good feeling because it means we finally get some connections and some answers to the sequels.. possibly! Let's chat all about The Siege, the latest episode from The Mandalorian. Such a great direction by Carl Weathers himself. Stick around for some chat about the Battle of Jakku, the contingency plan, CHRONOLOGICAL VS RELEASE order with this day in age. We had a great time chatting star wars this week and we want you guys to get in on the conversation feel free to reach out at the links below to let us know your thoughts, and as always, this is a non-profit so feel free to help us out by sharing with a friend / fellow fan, and by giving us a great star rating :)

As always, may the force be with you.

Bo-Katan searching for her darksaber, Ahsoka is around the corner, and we got some great Imperial action happening. So many cool ties to the animated series and the films, this show is turning out to be fan-fricken-tastic.

The Rise of Skywalker | Commentary Track

Fri, 13 Nov 2020 11:13:21 -0800

The FINAL installment in the "Skywalker Saga"... Or so Disney marketed it to be. Not only 15 years ago we remember fondly when Revenge of the Sith was marketed simply "The saga is complete". As a fan, in my personal opinion it's been trying times to see this sequel trilogy unfold. Walking out of this film I thought "whelp, what's done is done". I never once thought I'd be saying that about any star wars film until the last 5 years flew by. I do not believe Disney had any right to complete George's vision the way they did, first points being, Disney's vision was never George's vision, vice versa. Despite that, some fans absolutely love this film and that remains their opinion, respectively. But today myself (Josh), Blake and Reid sit down to re watch this finale, and really talk about it the way we feel, good and bad. Disclaimer if you love this movie to perhaps avoid listening to us on this one! We're not here to trash, but we are here to share our genuine thoughts. May the force be with us, one last time...

The Last Jedi | Commentary Track

Fri, 06 Nov 2020 08:30:00 -0800

The most controversial star wars film has reached us on the list of our chronological viewing order of the saga. Today we chat all about "Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi", some great ideas came out of this movie, but as Rian Jonson hoped for.. he made a very controversial film in the saga. Stay tuned at the end where we play footage of his reasoning for this. Now this film did break records, but made a lot of fans angry as well. We're going to watch this film, enjoy the parts we liked and critique the parts we didn't. This is Star Wars after all, we're all fans here of the franchise, so this is a disclaimer for anyone who feels differently about this trilogy and this film. Your opinion is respected, and we advise you not to tune in unless you're prepared for some sequel criticism.

The Force Awakens | Commentary Track

Mon, 02 Nov 2020 06:15:00 -0800

The first movie that kicked off the sequel trilogy was an extremely hyped film. Despite stellar reviews, some star wars fans (such as myself) knew it might be the beginning of a very different sort of trilogy than what we had seen before. Personally this trilogy is not my favorite in any way shape or form but it's still star wars, so we took our fair criticism to the commentary track and decided not to hold back on what we both like and dislike about this film. Join Reid, Blake and Josh as we chat "Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens". This is Star Wars after all, we're all fans here of the franchise, so this is a disclaimer for anyone who feels differently about this trilogy and this film. Your opinion is respected, and we advise you not to tune in unless you're prepared for some sequel criticism.

Return of the Jedi | Commentary Track

Mon, 26 Oct 2020 07:00:00 -0700

The final film the original trilogy set a new bar for the pacing of films - modern films... lightsaber duels + starship battles + ground battle = "Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi". This is my personal favorite of the original trilogy and remains to be the iconic film in which audiences around the world saw the redemption of Anakin Skywalker for the first time in 1983. Join Josh, Blake, and Reid as we take you through the final classic movie which at one point was also known as "Revenge of the Jedi"!

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story | Commentary Track

Mon, 05 Oct 2020 07:15:00 -0700

Star Wars Rogue One just blew audiences away, the first Star Wars anthology film from Disney-Lucasfilm was a massive hit bringing in over $1Billion worldwide. From digitally resurrecting actors by the likes of Peter Cushing and Carrie Fischer to make CGI Tarkin and Princess Leia, it's incredible the technology, and the effort the artists at ILM put into this film. It remains one of fans favorites in the saga and my personal favorite that Disney has made yet. Please, grab a drink, snacks, turn on the TV and join us for the commentary track of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story while you sync up at home!

Revenge of the Sith | Commentary Track

Tue, 22 Sep 2020 06:00:00 -0700

The saga is complete. They were the last 4 words of commercial advertising that many of us fans took to heart that this was very likely going to be the last star wars movie ever made. That obviously isn't true now looking back at the last 5 years today with 5 more live action films in the count and many more on the way... But Episode 3 was the last one that George Lucas ever made. It's my personal favorite Star Wars film, one of my favorite movies of all time, and truly a master piece. One, to even be praised by an art critic as the staple for being the greatest piece of artwork in the last 30 years. More on that here.

Let's sit down and enjoy a drink with this film and of course your host, Josh, Blake, and Reid.

Clone Wars Talk (Part 40) | Siege of Mandalore | Revenge of the Sith

Mon, 10 Aug 2020 07:00:00 -0700

"You never would have made it as Obi-Wan's Padawan... but you might make it as mine" - Anakin Skywalker

We have indeed reached the climactic ending of Star Wars The Clone Wars. It's bitter sweet and it's so hard to see it come to an end. But there is something special knowing that it's one window of George Lucas star wars that has been made complete thanks to Lucasfilm for bringing the show back after its cancellation and the relentless fans who all united for years, pestering Disney to allow it. Here are the final episodes we chat about today, and our favorite film, "Revenge of the Sith". It's been an honor for us to host you for the ride.

We hope you've been able to follow along with us at home through this amazing journey of a show that means so much to us all. Here is the link to the chronological viewing order that we used as reference.

Clone Wars Talk (Part 38) | Ahsoka in the Underworld

Mon, 27 Jul 2020 13:43:21 -0700

It's been a while since we last heard from Ahsoka, where did she go when she left the order and what has she been doing? More importantly, what has she learned? When she walked away from the Jedi she made a bold choice, and it represented her opinion of the Jedi and how she'd been hurt, she didn't let her feelings cloud her judgment she 'had to figure things out on her own' as she put it to Anakin. But this choice has put her in new territory, growing up in the temple she knows no other life. What would an ex-Jedi such as Ahsoka do given a life of free will?

Here are the episodes for today:

Clone Wars Talk (Part 37) | Son of Dathomir & The UN-PRODUCED Episodes | The Clone Wars Legacy

Thu, 16 Jul 2020 20:58:01 -0700

The next episodes that we chat about on our Clone Wars Talk series are included in the Dark Horse / Marvel Comics trade paper back "Star Wars: Darth Maul - Son of Dathomir". This comic book adapted the next arc of four episodes which belonged to either season 6/7 from Star Wars The Clone Wars. Thanks to this story arc, a large gap is filled, the last time we saw Maul he was being tortured by Palpatine on Mandalore. What happened to him? Let's find out before watching the final season of The Clone Wars. We also honor the un-produced episodes today that were never adapted into another format. We chat about where some of these un-produced arc's would have gone, how they would've been. You can listen to Dave and Pablo talk about these in the links below from various conventions.

Clone Wars Talk (Part 36) | Dark Disciple | The Clone Wars Legacy

Fri, 03 Jul 2020 01:01:12 -0700

The Clone Wars Legacy project adapted 8 episode scripts into a brilliant novel called Dark Disciple and this SUPER episode is an insane in depth walk through and talk about that book designed for anyone who hasn't read the novel particularly. If you have read the novel then it might not be anything new to you but I'm going to do my best to entertain all regardless with this one. If you've never read it this podcast episode is for you, and after I highly recommend smashing through it too because it's just pure star wars goodness. Here is the episodes in the book we talk about today:

Clone Wars Talk (Part 35) | Crystal Crisis on Utapau | The Clone Wars Legacy

Sat, 27 Jun 2020 22:45:44 -0700

When season 6 was cancelled half way through, some great people at Lucasfilm got together and decided on a few ways to give us those next few episodes regardless. This last project to continue the show was called The Clone Wars Legacy, (and yes it's still canon and not to be confused with the "legends" banner). Three arcs were adapted into material we could still consume, the first of these three arcs; referred to as the "Crystal Crisis on Utapau" arc was released as raw unfinished proxy animation. Prior to final animation every episode looked like these. All the audio is there, and some of the music. But in reality, the story gets across despite the rough looking product. These episodes have recently been hard to find, they were... and currently they are no longer on starwars.com to view. But they can be found via YouTube and the Season 6 "lost missions" Clone Wars blu ray bonus features. With some digging you will find them, so happy hunting and then you can listen to us chat about them right here on the show, as well as The Clone Wars Legacy project.
Episodes are listed below:

Clone Wars Talk (Part 32) | Clovis Returns | Anakin's Jealousy

Mon, 01 Jun 2020 23:30:00 -0700

It costs a lot of money to make a war a successful effort and both the Republic and the CIS are faced with debts and impending loans. An old friend who was once left for dead has made his return to financial power, Rush Clovis. But this story arc isn't just about banking and politics. This arc heavlily focuses in on the relationship between PADME and ANAKIN, and the third wheel CLOVIS who's come back to also sweep Padme out from under her feet. In Revenge of the Sith we see Skywalker driven to the dark side based on his strong attachments to Padme and his terrible vision of her death. What more has driven him to take that path? What kind of greed and possession has taken hold of our hero at this point in the story? AWESOME breakdown starts to happen midway through this episode and we really hone in on ANAKIN SKYWALKER as a character. Because this is the skywalker saga. Here are the episodes we chat about today for those following along at home, watch these first!

Clone Wars Talk (Part 28) | D-Squad & Republic Commando - Gregor

Mon, 18 May 2020 06:30:00 -0700

R2-D2 is assigned a special team of droids to be apart of an elite mission to steal an encryption module. One of George Lucas's favorite arcs in the entire show, a bit slower in our opinion but enjoyable all the same to any R2 fans out there. Let's watch the next set of episodes in our chronological order right here...

97 510 Secret Weapons | Stream on Disney+
98 511 A Sunny Day in the Void | Stream on Disney+

Iain Returns... Again! | Catching up Star Wars 2020

Fri, 15 May 2020 06:30:00 -0700

Josh and Iain catch up on all the latest star wars content from The Rise of Skywalker, The Mandalorian, The Clone Wars, Fallen Order, the comics, books, Duel of Fates script, The High Republic - everything in the last couple months! Just listen to two passionate fans chat to one another about all the latest the star wars galaxy has to offer. Iain has been on the show previously talking about the novel "Force Collector" as well as a special Journey to the Rise of Skywalker episode that we did catching other fans up on what preludes Episode 9 (all taking place before we saw the film in December). So after months gone by I'm pleased to have this awesome guy back on the show just to chat star wars! You can also find Iain on twitter where his star wars tweets entertain! Hope you enjoy. Big thank you to Iain for hanging out.
And once again, no profit is made from this show at all - If you guys can share and rate well that's all that matters in the end :)

Clone Wars Talk (Part 23) | Kadavo | Slavery in the Galaxy

Fri, 01 May 2020 06:30:00 -0700

"Long has Sith Empire's been built upon the backs of slaves." - Palpatine
Slavery is a tool used by the darkside, and yet the corruption in the Senate and in the Jedi Order itself has made the Jedi out to be slaves themselves, slaves of a corrupt senate and the Republic. Pawns in the war, all part of Palpatines grand plan as he orchestrates the Clone Wars as a phantom menace. Today Deigo and Josh watched and chat about this next season 4 story arc on our chronological list, The Kadavo story arc. If you follow along at home, here are the episodes to watch today:

One of the best story arcs in the entire Star Wars The Clone Wars MUST be talked about, there is no better show to do that on other than right here with our massive Clone Wars binge with Josh and Diego.

Clone Wars Talk (Part 17) | MORTIS | Balance of the Force

Wed, 15 Apr 2020 06:30:00 -0700

The balance of the force, it means so many things to so many fans. But what does George Lucas say about it? What does it really mean? And how does the prophecy of the Chosen One fit into all of this? We watched and deciphered some of the crazy metaphors in the Mortis trilogy, three episodes of Star Wars The Clone Wars that mean so much to fans, and so much to George and his narrative of the Force. Nothing gets better than this. So let's watch the next episodes on our chronological journey through the clone wars series and then chat with Diego and Josh about it. Here's the episodes for today:

59 315 Overlords | Stream on Disney+
60 316 Altar of Mortis | Stream on Disney+
61 317 Ghosts of Mortis | Stream on Disney+

What do you think of the sequels? Would Duel of Fates be your more preferred film script now having seen these clone wars episodes?
How did you think of the balance of the force before hearing George Lucas tell us all about it?
How can we improve the podcast for you as a listener? Let us know!

Jedi: Fallen Order | Game Review

Mon, 13 Apr 2020 18:21:25 -0700

JEDI: FALLEN ORDER the 2019 video game has been on the market a while now and it seemed time to go back and talk about it, in hopes that many listeners have played the game. Let's dive into these new characters, planets, revisited planets, connections to the comics, the novels, the movies. AND SO MUCH MORE! If you don't intend to play the game, you might still be entertained by what we got to share today.

Reid and Josh break down all the Palpatine returning reasons provided in The Rise of Skywalker novelization - Expanded Edition.

Fri, 24 Jan 2020 04:30:00 -0800

The Colin Trevorrow script was "leaked" online this past week and it's something to chat about with Reid and Josh right here on Star Wars Escape Pod. Join them in a familiar but small cantina as we grab a bite to eat and chat about the latest of the leaks. Concept artwork was also "leaked" and no one has confirmed it's truth or origin but the discussion about weather this iteration of Episode 9 fitting in with the rest of the saga is better is one to be discussed. Do you like "The Rise of Skywalker" better than "Duel of the Fates"? Let us know!

Fri, 06 Dec 2019 09:30:00 -0800

Reid joins us again for the epic conclusion to our Vader Immortal trilogy discussions, not only do we dive into aspects of the game but we have a very deep conversation about Vader himself. The character of Anakin is further explored by the "pilot" through your eyes in this series and we can't ignore that Anakin / Vader is the primary figure of the Skywalker Saga. It's only appropriate we dive deep into Darth Vader's personal motives as we approach the end of an era with The Rise of Skywalker right around the corner. Join us for a drink, sit back and relax, and enjoy the ride...

Did you play through Vader Immortal and see anything we missed? Let us know your thoughts!

Early Review ”Force Collector” | Book Review | We Talk Star Wars Books!

Mon, 21 Oct 2019 04:00:00 -0700

The force is in all things - like between the pages of books! We join AJ in the Escape Pod chatting about Star Wars books today! Star Wars books have had a massive impact on fans over the years and have remained very important to the fandom and the franchise. It's what started the expanded universe and gave fans new stories when the films had hit a void of inactivity. They've provided inspiration for the films, the tv shows, the circle continues... Books have always played a vital part of the living fandom and we're super happy to discuss this with our very special guest and new friend Iain! He's managed to secure himself a copy of "STAR WARS: FORCE COLLECTOR" from his local bookstore in the UK. Listen to Iain give an early inside look at this novel that's available in north america in November. We also bring up some talk about MASTER & APPRENTICE, and DOOKU: JEDI LOST. Thanks again Iain for joining us in the Escape Pod, and AJ for joining the show!

Clone Wars Talk (Part 3) | Reading Episode IX "Leaks" Online

Mon, 14 Oct 2019 06:30:00 -0700

Diego returns to watch The Clone Wars episodes:

We speculate on STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER from an article by "MAKING STAR WARS". Leaks posted there led us to speculate. HOW WILL SHEEVE RETURN? Obi-Wan Kenobi will return to a Disney + with EWAN MCGREGOR reprising his role as the Jedi Master, watching over Luke Skywalker on Tatooine 8 years after his duel on Mustafar. We also learn Diego isn't a fan of trailers...

George Lucas’s Sequels & Bob Iger’s Book

Sat, 28 Sep 2019 00:09:00 -0700

In this episode we chat one on one in the escape pod all about the recent buzz from Bob Iger's new book. George Lucas's feelings on the sequel trilogy, how he was blindsided in a meeting with Kathy, J.J. Abrams and company about going forward with their ideas for what the sequels would look like having not been warned by Bob prior to the meeting. Bob writes about how he regrets not handling the situation better. We piece that together with his interview on Charlie Rose after EPISODE 7 came out and his feelings toward DISNEY there. And talk about what George's ideas for the sequel trilogies would've been, his treatments and the concept art from TFA that was based on his ideas with ties to the PREQUELS. Lucas's sequel trilogy really would have brought it round circle, we miss George and wish him all the best in his retirement, and all the best for JJ as he finishes The Rise of Skywalker in post production.

Our first co-host Reid joins us again in the Escape Pod! We talk about how interest started with Star Wars and then all about the second episode in the Vader Immortal VR trilogy. We review the game a bit and talk reaction, and story points along the way that some to us are still a mystery. We speculate on the third installment which might be released early 2020.

Was Technology Too Advanced In The Prequels? | Article Bash

Sat, 14 Sep 2019 00:51:51 -0700

We take the escape pod on a trip down to Nar Shadaa where we meet up our next co-host, Calvin, in a funky little cantina with jazzy tunes. We dive into an article on screenrant.com titled "Star Wars: 10 Times Prequel Technology Was Way Too Advanced", we have great discussion about each item on the list.
We hope next time screenrant can come up with some better reasons to dislike technology in the prequels...

Star Wars ”Canon” | Explained

Fri, 13 Sep 2019 03:04:16 -0700

On route to our first destination we fill the time with a quick catch up for those unfamiliar with the terms "canon" "expanded universe" or "legends" within the star wars community and how they're used to reference different types of story content. Brief coverage of the Disney acquisition of Lucasfilm in 2012 that has relevance to what makes canon today. Going forward these things might be useful to know for the full episodes and it could help new fans to the franchise and old fans who want a quick refresher.
