Big spoiler warning for this episode. The finale of the Obi-Wan Kenobi has JUST released and we've decided to have a chat to debrief and see how we're feeling about it.

I hope everyone else is as stoked to see the various renditions of lightsabers that have been coming out in all of this new Star Wars content. By far one of the coolest lightsaber situations in The Hight Republic novelisations is Vernestra Rwoh's lightwhip transition. 

Imagine a parasitic tick that suffocated you to the point of taking over your body only to use your body as it wants and creates an impenetrable shell around your body and face that is resistant to lightsabers. Welcome to the Orbalisk's... Enjoy this nightmare inducing episode!

While reading the novelization of the High Republic era we have encountered some new species and learned more in depth about some pre existing characters. No other character from this era of Star Wars tops the cake than the navigational wizard that calls the Vessel home. He... rocks.

Luke's lightsaber is pretty cool, but like all cool things in Star Wars, the colour might not be the reason you think. I mean maybe it is, but maybe not. You'll have to listen to the episode to see if you're right...or if we're wrong.

Did you know Dagobah is the only planet in Star Wars that we see that inhabits real animals from our Galaxy? Which got us thinking of the practical effects and logistical effort that went behind the set design...and what we found is pretty hectic.

We've talked the design of Vader, but this time we dive deeper into his suit and how it's really just an instrument of evil. A design that keeps him inline with the dark side and inline with Palpatine's goals and ambitions (basically his b*tch). Most of his suit is an afterthought, but it's a fun and interesting one.

Who would have thought that the question 'blue or green?' didn't have anythign to do with lightsabers. We are talking about the tasey and nutritious milks that we see in the Star Wars films. We discuss their differences, which one we would prefer, and of course where we can get it Earth-bound.

It's time...we've avoided as much as we can, but now we have decided to finally discuss...Why Obi-Wan MIGHT be the chosen one.
