In Episode 142, hosts Alyce and Laura find* a possible new career path for Alyce: Star Wars movie prop auction item appraiser… or fortune teller. It’s between those two options.

• Anyone else loving Foxy Knoxy on Hulu?
• Prop Watch is over (for now)! One of us guessed almost exactly right and the other one… did not
• Why do we keep forgetting that Maul: Shadow Lord is going to be a thing? 
• The people yearn for more Hondo Ohnaka (via The Direct)
• Oscar Isaac may be on the hunt for a new/another house (via GamesRadar, this Deadline article also mentioned)
• We probably should have listened to the podcast to get the full context, but this recent interview with a certain SW showrunner is… confusing (via GamesRadar)
• Today’s segment of Star Wars Capitalism is here to deck the halls of your hopefully-high ceiling household this holiday season
• Sebulba lives! A brief overview of the Dug species. Because why not?
• Alyce learns what a meta quest is! Laura misses The Void VR experience! But maybe this Beyond Victory thing will scratch that itch?

In Episode 141, hosts Alyce and Laura demand* justice for Luke’s cancelled Tosche Station plans. Those power converters aren’t going to pick up themselves!

• Beware, movie prop auction houses have hidden fees for those buying $2 million lightsabers. Rich people - they’re just like us!
• If an Allen Wrench is good enough for film-grade lightsabers, it’s good enough for your Ikea bookshelf.
• I guess we can finally be confident that Star Wars: Starfighter will actually get made (I mean, it has a cast and everything now).
• Auntie Alyce, The Elder: Mullet Expert
• Ah yes, the classic villain in Ahsoka season 1: Babylon. Babylon Skull will return in S2. That was definitely his name.
• Speaking of, should we do an Ahsoka S1 re-watch? We’re thinking we should do an Ahsoka S1 re-watch. 
• Some folks have seen a sneak peak of season 3 of Star Wars Visions and we particularly enjoyed this review of what was shown at Anime NYC.
• No more streaming series for you! Now it’s just trilogies on trilogies. 
• Thanks to Sal of Rogue Rebels for the Throwback to Celebration 2016!

• First came the Mando-verse, now we’re [allegedly] getting a Rey-verse? 
• Some new reveals about the original cut of Rogue One, courtesy of Alan Tudyk
• The internet is just a big game of Telephone, which is essentially why some people thought Obi-Wan was going to show up in Ahsoka… or is he?
• No, but really. What would actually happen if an actor spilled the spoiler tea about an upcoming project? 
• Ron Howard is not here to start drama (unlike SOME people we know)
• Imagine being so good at your job, they have to use movie magic to slow you down (via Collider)
• Laura can’t decide if she’s more embarrassed for Disney or GC with this lawsuit settlement. Fortunately, Alyce has a casting solution.

• Andor got a bunch of Emmy nominations! And not to be forgotten if it was kind of just a footnote/afterthought in this article, The Acolyte got one too.

In Episode 137, hosts Alyce and Laura take* a bite out of Marchion Ro’s neck, then do Marchion impressions. Ultimately, it’s all about Marchion, which is exactly how he would want it.

In Episode 135 hosts, Alyce and Laura catch up* on Star Wars Celebration news and dive into Andor S2 and how we’re feeling about it after being underwhelmed by S1.

• Dark Matter filmed front of Laura’s apartment and it was the coolest thing that’s ever happened to her… man, that’s sad
• Alyce girlbossed too hard, so you know what that means: chaos cubes
• Spotify poll! Tell us how your bougie a-- serves bubbly in your house
• It turns out Andor didn’t rework its S2 release schedule to qualify for the Emmys… so it for real is starting to feel like an attack
• Star Wars Celebration Japan highlights! The Mando movie will have walkers and troopers and Zeb, oh my!
• Star Wars animation is back, baby! Maul: Shadow Lord was announced at SWCJ as the next animated series, along with more Star Wars Visions and The Ninth Jedi (Visions S1) gets a full series.

In Episode 134, hosts Alyce and Laura are back* with more absurd segues to discuss all the ongoings in the world of Star Wars!

• Is it still fancy if the debutante ball is BYOB?
• Pedophile is out, Meemaw is in. This is about eyewear. 
• More tales to come! Tales of the Underworld means more Asajj Ventress and more Asajj Ventress means more happy fans (it’s us, we’re the happy fans).
• Rogue One was almost ten years ago. That sentence sucks, right? Time is crazy. 
• Credit where credit is due: we have a lot of Star Wars content - including Andor - because of The Mandalorian (via Empire Magazine)
• Disney went full HBO-mode with the episode lengths for Andor season 2 (via Bespin Bulletin)

• Don’t you love it when we talk about an event that is happening soon but forget to say WHEN and WHERE during our discussion? We never claimed to be pros at this. Fortunately, Gizmodo has the details about the original Star Wars screening. 
• Recap on Tap: Alyce shares a brief, spoiler-free review of Reign of the Empire: The Mask of Fear, then Alyce and Laura share some initial thoughts on The High Republic: Into the Light and its… uh… let’s say, interesting early tone shift. 
• Star Wars has a weird obsession with giving women metal mid-sections, and for that we ask… why? 
• Interpol may have an APB out on Laura. So if you see her, no you didn’t.

In Episode 133, hosts Alyce and Laura indulge* in some Millennial Core (in addition to all the normal Star Wars stuff)!
