  • Behind the Blast Doors of the Escape Pod | #SWPD2024 | Star Wars Podcast Day 2024

    Happy Star Wars Podcast Day! Feb 7th 2024 celebrates the 25th anniversary of star wars podcasting, beginning with Jedi Talk. About 4 years podcasting and not once have we taken the time to run a chat focused on Star Wars Escape Pod, meta style. This is behind the blast doors, a small look behind the curtain of our very own podcast! Some of the challenges starting a podcast, subject matter, starting out and obtaining wonderful guests. We've had a wild ride hosting a Star Wars podcast these last few years, shout out to those of your who've been listening since the start - we're so lucky to have you continue tuning in! As many of you know, we've be podcasting either way, but it's having an audience that gives us more reason and more drive to keep doing it because we're doing it for you too. Thank you again to our volunteer staff at Star Wars Escape Pod and those who were able to join tonight, Blake and Kirk.

  • How Dark Horse Forged The EU | A 90’s Lookback | (Special Guest) Adam Braverman!

    There was once a time fans referred to as "the dark times" just as Obi Wan Kenobi did to Luke when he spoke of the Empire. In this case, it was a large space of time where hardly to no Star Wars content was coming out. Long behold our saviour, Dark Horse Comics and Timothy Zahn. Special guest Adam joins us once again from our "Bucketheads" podcast episode to chat all about the 90's Star Wars content and what it meant for the IP. The title was essentially "saved" by these stories which forged the EU, stories that still drive narrative today...

                      Merry Christmas ya filthy Nerf herder's! The last time we released a Holiday Special Commentary it was December 29th 2021 - two years ago! It's not that we want to bore you, and this episode of our podcast should be skipped entirely if you don't want to watch along with us.

Grab some egg nog, a brew, some of those Christmas cookies and join us for the most wonderous, most confusing, most aweful episode of Star Wars television.

                       

                      WATCH THE HOLIDAY SPECIAL HERE!
