In this episode, we dive into Star Wars: Aftermath, Chuck Wendig’s 2015 novel that takes place immediately after the Battle of Endor. The fall of the Empire has left the galaxy in chaos, and the story explores the aftermath of the Empire’s defeat and the uncertain future of the New Republic. Join us as we discuss the new characters, shifting alliances, and what life is like in the galaxy after the Battle of Endor.

Is Aftermath a worthy continuation of the Star Wars saga, or does it struggle to capture the magic of the original trilogy? Tune in to find out!

Nate and Rizwan are back with episode 5 of The Acolyte, and this is by far the most action packed episode of the show so far! Also the best episode so far. Join the Squadron as we break down the big revelations, nerd over the amazing lightsaber duels and try to make sense of some continuity questions we have. The Acolyte is gearing up for an interesting ending and we're curious to see if it can stick a good landing!

May the 4th Be With You! Welcome dear Padawans to our final review for the Star Wars Original Trilogy, and what better day to release this then May 4th? Not only is this a day for our fandom to celebrate the wondrous world of Star Wars, but it is also the Jedi Squadron Podcast's One Year Anniversary! That is right, we first took flight exactly one year ago today and we thought it would be most fitting to take a look at Episode 6 Return of the Jedi for a few reasons. 1) It is Riz's favorite Star Wars movie 2) We discussed our theatrical viewing of it on our first podcast for the 40th Anniversary of the movie, and 3) It feels fitting to end our first year by concluding our look into the original trilogy movies! So strap in young Padawan and get ready to jump into hyperspace as Nathan DeSa and Rizwan Merchant break down Episode 6, discuss the characters, try and find another villain in other franchises that has the depth that Darth Vader has in Star Wars, and go in-depth into some behind the scenes fun facts and changes Lucas made to the movie over the years.
