Grab your helmets and rev your engines, because the Star Wars Escape Pod crew (Blake, Josh, and Dan) are back on the air to dive headfirst into the chaotic, high-speed thrill ride of Star Wars Galactic Racer! Blending blistering Burnout-style combat racing, gorgeous planet-hopping rogue-lite tours, and an unexpectedly heartwarming redemption arc for the galaxy's most notorious pod-racer, Sebulba, the game has been an absolute smash. Between laughing at viral betting broker Biddy Blaze and dodging hazards on planets like Crait and Jakku, the trio still found time to pop some ASMR bubble wrap and unbox their shiny, highly coveted "Founding Member" packages for the George Lucas Museum of Narrative Art—complete with member cards, starship pins, and a welcome letter from George himself! Toss in some rapid-fire news about Ahsoka Season 2, a Simpsons parody of the ill-fated Galactic Starcruiser, and a jaw-dropping $5,500 life-size Wicket statue, and you've got yourself another classic, fun-filled episode from the outer rim!

Another Cantina Banter this week! Nice and chill the way we like it. Turns out Blake went to visit the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art recently and we had some questions about the facility. Funded entirely by George Lucas at a cost of $1 to $1.5 billion, the massive five-story building spans over 300,000 square feet and features extensive galleries, theaters, a research library, and gardens. Blake shares details about the exhibits, including the "Star Wars In Motion" collection featuring screen-used props, concept art by Doug Chiang and Ralph McQuarrie, life-sized replicas like an N1 Starfighter and a wheel bike, and extensive works by artists like Norman Rockwell.
We talk a bit about some upcoming fan films, community updates like the LA based Scum and Villainy Cantina. More updates from books, comics and gaming!

This week we had our special guest Aaron on to chat all about Star Wars Unlimited! The TCG taking the fandom by storm these days. The card game from FFG has been out since March 8 2024 with Spark of Rebellion leading the way. Aaron has been deep into the game for quite some time, works as a judge for local events, and plays the game with passion. We had the privilege of not only hanging out this evening with him for a chat but he also followed up the recording with a game of Twin Suns so we could all try the game ourselves. Amazing thank you again to Aaron and we hope to have him back at some point down the road!
