Star Wars - The Lorehounds

Calling all music fans! The Lorehounds network’s first music podcast, Nevermind the Music, is officially launching on September 10 – where two friends and academics filter their appreciation of music through the frameworks of psychology, music theory, and irreverent humor.

Hosts Mark and Nichole join David, John, and Elysia for a light-hearted chat about who they are, how this whole podcast thing started, and what to expect from their joint venture – not to mention answers to key questions like which single album each of us would take to a desert island to listen to for the rest of forever.

Stick around after the chat for a 5-minute preview of Nevermind the Music. And then visit the link below to hear more!

It's an Acolyte end-of-season party! Elysia and John are joined by Marilyn and Jean to talk through the entire season the only way Elysia knows how: in a gameshow format. Which characters, planets, lore, and more will be picked as the best (or sometimes) the worst of the season? What does it mean to be a David Whisperer, and who earns that title? Answers to all of the above and more inside, seasoned with extra laughs.

After you've listened, you'll find the full chart of game results here!

John joins Elysia to talk through not only his thoughts about the finale of The Acolyte, and the season as a whole – but also how the show is being received throughout the community. (And how grateful we all are to have some respectful discourse from fans.) Along the way we discuss everything from the complexities of social work to the pros and cons of that Imri Cantaros theory going around.

(Stay tuned to this feed for a spoiler-filled season wrap-up episode coming soon as well!)

In the first of two episodes dedicated to dissecting the season finale, Elysia walks you through a recap of everything that happened in "The Acolyte" – episode 8 in the series of the same name – zooming in on key details you might have missed and mining the lore for what it all means. Including, of course, everything you need to know about that creeper in the cave Darth Plagueis.

The Great Hyperspace Disaster, nuna legs, Vergences in the Force – Elysia and John explain it all in their breakdown of The Acolyte episode 7: "Choice." What did we learn from this new perspective on the Brendok witches coven, and what answers does the showrunner tell us to expect in the finale?

Elysia and John dissect "Night," episode 5 of The Acolyte – a thrilling gut punch of an episode. From secret Sith and secret second blades to the Knights of Ren and our goodbye to saying John's favorite name on the show – unlike Bazil we won't leave you alone in the jungle (of Acolyte analysis).

Elysia and John are back to break down episode 4 of The Acolyte season 1 – “Day.” One calls it half an episode, the other the pivot point in a mirror image. Their scene-by-scene walkthrough picks out telling character moments, the most important lore, the silliest hashtags, and what the actors have said about their motivations in scenes. And then Elysia drops another non-Jedi/Sith Force-user lorebomb, mining Canon and Legends alike for some of the most unusual types of Force users in the galaxy.

A flashback episode set 16 years before everything we saw in the first two episodes of The Acolyte offers the beginnings of answers – and Elysia and John mine episode 3: “Destiny” for all possible hints of what happened that night, what we might see next, and lore worth knowing.

But first, fellow Lorehounds host David joins them for a soul-searching opening conversation on the nature of power, parenthood, the place of science in fantasy, and what it means to be a Jedi.
