Force Toast: A Star Wars Happy Hour

Hosts Alyce and Laura give* a brief update on what's in the news and discuss the forthcoming Rey/Aladdin crossover! JK! Not really. But they discuss the Episode 9 footage that was screened to Disney shareholders and do a little theorizing. If you want to go into Episode 9 spoiler-free, skip here: 19:30-26:45

Did you enjoy The Clone Wars? You should probably pick up a copy of EK Johnston's new novel "Queen's Shadow." Hosts Alyce and Laura dig into characters, plot, who lives/dies, THAT ENDING THOUGH, complete with full-blown spoilers - skip 29:30-51:50 if you want to avoid.

Get a quick recap of Star Wars Resistance episodes 18 and 19, get down with some listener questions, and see how Laura does with some next level Star Wars movie trivia.

Last warning! Avoiding Spoilers? Here's where to skip:

Honorary Team Fireball is here to teach* you how to say say 'Jabba the Hutt' in french and other life skills. We check out some of the announcements about Galaxy's Edge, Star Wars Celebration and lightsabering becoming a real sport in France. Laura gets sappy about Star Wars Rebels with a #RebelsRemembered tribute. Alyce does a quick-ish recap of Star Wars Resistance episodes 11-17 (believe it or not, it's not all bad!). We drop some more tips about public transit and restaurants in Chicago for all you Celebrators heading our way soon. Plus we tackle a great question about Cassian's upbringing on a Separatist world from listener @toastedzen on twitter. We talk for awhile but do we even answer the question?

Alyce and Laura spend some time catching up on what to expect in the Star Wars universe in 2019. The wine-infused discussion* includes some predictions about the still-untitled Episode 9, what we know so far about The Mandalorian, how we feel about Star Wars Resistance, and Laura having a not-at-all-over-the-top reaction to the announcement of Book 1 of Alphabet Squadron.

Shoot us an email or tweet at us: Which characters do you think survive episode 9? Do you plan to dive in head first to leaks/spoilers or avoid them at all costs?

In this Podcast Prequel of Force Toast*, we popped some bubbly and watched the Star War that started it all for Alyce -- Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure! We ask important questions like, are Ewoks sexist? Is Cindel wearing fake eyelashes? Why can’t Alyce remember basic words? Will Laura ever sleep again after seeing non-blinking Ewoks? Yubnub, fairies and feather hats abound!

Tweet at us or send us an email: Did you see the Ewok Adventures films as a child? As an adult? Either way, are you okay?

San Diego Comic Con 2018 took place July 19-22 and we recorded this episode* on July 23 to bring you all the news that is now old news. The con unveiled a surprising amount of prequel-era content and Alyce was HERE FOR IT (still is). New Clone Wars episodes! New novels on the way! Join your hosts as they learn first-hand why consuming beer while podcasting is not one of their brightest ideas. A lot of burps ended up on the cutting room floor in this one. You’re welcome.

Send us a tweet or an email! What do you think we can expect in season 7 of The Clone Wars?

In this prologue* of the Force Toast Podcast, we pop some Skywalker Vineyards vino and take our first steps into a larger world! We introduce ourselves, discuss what happened in the world of Star Wars in 2018, our Star Wars Resolutions for 2019, try to stump each other with a little trivia, and reveal how truly awful we are at brainstorming names for a podcast.

What are your Star Wars resolutions for 2019? We want to hear from you!

Dearly beloved: In this clip from Episode 0 of Force Toast, Alyce and Laura mourn the untimely death of Star Wars. Despite all the new content coming down the pipeline - live action TV shows, animation series, all the novels and comics, 2 theme parks, and 10 years of film productions planned - some people still think think Star Wars is dead.

We disagree.
