Blah Wars: A Star Wars Podcast

Back in Blah Wars #28, we offered our UK listeners the chance to win a visit to The Void's Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire Hyper-Reality experience in London's Westfield Shopping Center, now the compeition winner, Graham and his mate Matt join us as we step inside the Star Wars universe. Hear what all of us thought a little later on in the show. Before all that however, we officially welcome Bradie as our permenant co-host, then briefly discuss the two Solo TV spots (Crew and Risk) released last week. Also on the show this week, expect Episode 9 news, astonishing Brian Blessed stories, visiting Harvester resturants and how Mark Hamill really feels about The Last Jedi.

Lucasfilm have released a second trailer for the upcoming Solo: A Star Wars Story, out next month. On the show this week we discuss the new footage and also read out some of the reactions sent in by our listeners.

Jude is on holiday this week, so Bradie co-hosts with John. We're discussing how she got into Star Wars, and what she made of the prequels. We also talk about Star Wars tattoos and the news that a tiny amount of Star Wars fans want Meryl Streep to play Leia in Epsiode 9, and why this is of absolutely no consequence to anyone.

Having done such a great job on our Last Jedi commentary, Bradie joins us once again to speculate over the final installment of the Star Wars sequel trilogy; JJ Abrams' Episode IX (working title 'Black Diamond'). Once again, she's providing next level insight, offset by the purile silliness of John and Jude.

John and Jude are joined by Bradie Tippetts for an insightful look at the latest installment of the Star Wars saga. Bradie is a writer and raises the bar with her observations on subtexts and metaphors throughout the film. John and Jude are on hand for the usual purile nonsense. One of our best shows!

This edition of Blah Wars is not sponored by Harry's Razors. On the show this week, we're talking about those controversial Han Solo posters and we discussing more deleted scenes from The Last Jedi. If you're working on one of the upcoming Star Wars movies and would like to speak to us about your experiences... get in touch with the show: [email protected]

This week's episode was recorded at the Baltimore State Hopsital for the Criminally Insane, where John is being incarcerated, under the care of Dr Chilton. On the show this week John gives you the low-down on the Last Jedi novel (available to buy now) and we discuss Mark Hamill finally recieving his star on the Hollywood Boulevard walk of fame. Also on the show this week, the toothpaste story, the brie story, how to make a chicken bomb and unmissable events going on this month.

This week, snow covered the UK and spoiled all of our well laid plans to bring you Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire. Meanwhile, we discuss the Last Jedi's deleted scenes, talk about the forthcoming Last Jedi novel and how the latest episode of Rebels has changed everything. Also on this episode.... cannibalism, weather, stock markets, seafood and why The Star Wars Show is absolutely awful.

Jude's returned to his childhood home where he's recording this week's episode. His Dad pops by and gives us a go on his Chewbacca impression. We're both psych'd for Virtual Reality star wars, but first we've got a show to make. Big talking points this week are concept designer Colin Cantwell and a round up of the latest Episode 9 news, along with the usual off topic banter. Lock the kids in the car, put down your tools, pop the kettle on and have a listen to this!
