Ryan and John catch up on the first three chapters of Obi-Wan Kenobi after returning home from Celebration. We discuss the important players, plot points, and surprises before closing the show by gushing over *that* confrontation at the close of part 3.
This one is all about breaking down every moment of the fantastic new Obi-Wan Kenobi trailer. We talk the show’s cinematic look, Owen’s sick burn, legacy character cameos, and theorize about the most intriguing moments.
Ryan and John open the show by discussing our continued frustration with Disney’s support for the Florida lawmakers behind the state’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill before spending the remainder of the episode breaking down the newly-released Obi-Wan Kenobi trailer and Entertainment Weekly coverage.
After taking a week off, we catch up on all of the recent Star Wars news including the Kenobi cast announcement, Bad Batch trailer, Vintage Star Wars on Disney+, and books and games announcements.
The Rise of Skywalker press tour is kicking into full gear with new tv spots, talk show appearances, and magazine features dropping seemingly every day, so we’re digging in and pulling our favorite shots, moments, and quotes as we enjoy these last few pre-TROS weeks of anticipation. We also look at The Mandalorian Chapter 3, the current state of Star Wars merchandise availability, and wrap the show with a response to a listener question re: our personal spoiler policies leading into the TROS release.
This week’s episode is news heavy again as we discuss Deborah Chow directing the Obi-Wan show, the TROS issue of Empire Magazine, and the (official this time) Triple Force Friday reveals and livestream. We also talk a little bit about Babu Frick, but somehow we forgot to bring up the week’s biggest story: Kevin Fiege producing a future Star Wars film. Whoops.
