2023 was not an easy year for most folks we know, us included. But, in this episode, we are choosing to focus on all the amazing, positive, magical things that happened in 2023. Thank you to all our listeners for your love, support, and friendship! We wish you a very happy new year!

The basic definition of a "red flag" is something that indicates or draws attention to a problem, danger, or irregularity...and yep, that essentially describes Anakin Skywalker in more than one instance before his fall! We go over several "red flag moments" where we believe Anakin's behavior was a true warning sign; a sign that many ignored or chose not to acknowledge properly throughout his time as a Jedi. Anger, impatience, obsession...these are just a few of the themes woven throughout the moments we discuss.

Neither one of us had ever watched the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special. So this holiday season we decided to give it a try. What a wild ride. After we recovered and were able to think again, we recorded this episode. You'll hear our honest opinions...

This will need to be an ongoing series of episodes in the future, because there are SO many awesome filming locations to choose from! But for this episode's purpose, we each chose two filming locations from Star Wars that we wanted to discover more deeply and discuss from a geographical (and geological!) standpoint. Of the four different locations, we discuss facts and figures about each, including why they were chosen for Star Wars and how they were integrated into the films. These locations may LOOK other-worldly, but they belong to our beautiful Planet Earth, and we hope you learn a little about our choices as much as we did researching them!

Join us for a hilarious conversation about all the times Indiana Jones referenced Star Wars and vice versa. We were familiar with a few of these already, but several really shocked us! Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. We have a good feeling about this!

What do you get when you tie a Sith Lord, a Jedi Master, and a Jedi Padawan together in a pirate's prison cell? THIS EPISODE! Yes, it may sound like the start of a bad joke, but really - this is the lovable hilarious mess that follows part 1, "Dooku Captured". The three "prisoners" attempt to work together to escape Hondo's lair, much hilarity and irritability ensue, and somehow...Jar Jar Binks saves the day (and no, that's NOT a joke!) Let's wrap up this 2-part arc with a another good laugh, shall we?

"Dooku Captured" is one of our favorite Clone Wars arcs from season one. In this episode, we dive into the hilarity and, of course, the sass that unfolds between Obi-Wan, Anakin, Dooku, and Hondo. It is a pure delight :)

Every now and then, we do a deep dive and discuss our favorite Star Wars actors and actresses, and we're ashamed and horrified it took us THIS LONG to celebrate our absolute FAVORITE: Mark Hamill! He's not just our favorite hero of Star Wars, but he's so much more: he's also a voice actor, stage/theater actor, claymation and comic book savant, in addition to just being a wonderful human being with one of the greatest smiles of all time. Join us as we celebrate Hamill Himself!

We appologize for missing last week's Halloween episode. LeeAnn was sick and had lost her voice. But we loved the subject we were supposed to talk about so much that we're going ahead with it anyways. In this episode we keep the spooky season going with our list of the creepiest moments from The Clone Wars.

This week we take a step back from our neck-deep-obsession with Star Wars and look at it with fresh eyes. LeeAnn's mom, Gina, joins us to talk about what it's like being a new fan navigating the enormity of the Star Wars galaxy. Is it overwhelming? Yes. Has that discouraged her? No.
