This past week Jack and Jimmy had some amazing Force Encounters and instead of rushing through them on the main show, they have decided to drop this episode today.

Jack recounts his time at MCM: Birmingham with all his UK Garrison mates and listeners of the show.

Jimmy walks you through his experience at the OKC Philharmonic's presentation of Return of The Jedi. He got to meet Brad Behn the lead Clarinet for the Philharmonic and Kendra Wall. She was the only Ewok in ROTJ that wasn't from California.

Then they sit down with Brad and talk about the event, John Williams and so much more.

Jack and Jimmy take a look at the main characters in the new Skeleton Crew show. They take a deeper look at Jod, Wim, Neel, KB, Fern and SM-33. A quick breakdown of the characters lead Jack and Jimmy into some serious predictions on a wide range of topics for this show.

If you want to make some predictions join the Explore The Force Facebook Group and take the survey! Hurry it will close right before the series starts on Dec 2nd.

The crew is back together for this special episode. Commander Taylor took a few minutes out of her day to join Jack and Jimmy to breakdown the Jedi Master Mace Windu!

The book - Mace Windu: The Glass Abyss, by Steven Barnes sparked this conversation and lets see where it takes them. Does this newest adventure set between the Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clone make the Jedi Council change the way they see him?

Spoiler warning for all things Mace Windu - books, comics, animation and movies.

Jack got to attend the #skeletoncrew media event this morning in the UK. He got to meet all the stars of the upcoming Disney+ show. He and a bunch of our friends all toughed out the cold weather for the great vibes!

Jack and Jimmy are joined by The Voice of Star Wars' Audio Books, the one the only Marc Thompson. On this very special episode they dive head first into the Dark Side of the Force! Why does it fascinate the viewer? Why does it tempt the strongest on our Jedi heroes? What is it about the Dark Side or is it the fault of the Light Side?

Let us know if you have ever felt yourself being pulled down that path!

Jack and Jimmy are joined by two great friends of the show for this week’s episode.  Mark Rolfe and Spencer Jawitz bring their knowledge and love of the franchise to forefront as the group discusses the latest news coming out of Batuu and go head to head in a quiz show hosted by the great Sith Lord Jack!  

Now that Simon Kinberg has been selected to pen the next Star War trilogy, what will it be? What does it mean for the future of the franchise?  Will it be the continuation of the Skywalker saga or something new for the fans?

Let us know in the comments and test your knowledge at the end of the show!
