Star Wars Time

This week’s show is a hyperspace jump through fandom chaos—and we loved every second of it. We kicked things off with Ask Us Anything, where listeners hit us with questions about our earliest childhood memories. Things got real nostalgic, real fast.

Then we took a sharp turn into movie talk with quick-fire reviews of Ballerina (yep, the John Wick spinoff), the wild Dangerous Animals movie, and the latest buzz surrounding the Nintendo Switch 2. Games, movies, and mayhem—check, check, check.

But the real heart of this episode? Our Star Wars Starship Tier List. We ranked 60 of the most iconic ships in the galaxy, from S-tier legends like the Millennium Falcon to the ships that belong in the scrapyard. Expect debate, hot takes, and a few surprise placements you’ll definitely want to yell at us about in the comments.

As always, we wrapped up with this week’s Question of the Week responses and our Top 5 Star Wars fan artists—trust us, these creators are worth checking out.

Whether you’re here for lore, laughs, or laser cannons, this episode’s got something for every fan. Tune in and sound off!

We’re back from our two-week break—and wow, this episode had it all. Matt kicked things off with a heartfelt (and slightly chaotic) apology for his now-legendary Discord rant. Then it was time to dive into Ask Us Anything fan questions, ranging from thoughtful to… well, totally unhinged (and we loved every second of it).

Things got real when we tried to interview Devin Doty about his stage appearance at a major Andor press event—but of course, tech gremlins struck and the whole thing spiraled into glorious Star Wars podcasting madness.

We even managed to sneak in a sidebar on the Pee-wee Herman documentary on HBO Max (yes, seriously), before finally landing on our big topic: reflecting on Andor Season 2. We debated where it ranks among the live-action Star Wars shows and how it holds up against the films. Did Andor just become the gold standard for Star Wars storytelling? We’ve got takes.

If you’re into Star Wars, wild tangents, and behind-the-scenes tech disasters, this one’s for you. Jump in, sound off in the comments, and may your comms always stay connected.

Andor Season 2 Preseason Predictions Revisited

In this episode, we go full throttle into Andor Season 2’s stunning finale arc — Episodes 10–12 — and we’re calling it now: this might be the most perfectly executed ending in all of Star Wars TV.

We break down how this arc not only delivered emotional payoff, intense action, and sharp dialogue, but also added incredible new lore about the Death Star, the Rebel Alliance, and Cassian’s final transformation before Rogue One. From the reveal of how the Rebels first learned about the Empire’s superweapon to K-2SO’s explosive return and the final push toward the Yavin 4 era, these episodes are packed with galaxy-shifting moments.

We also explore how characters like Luthen, Kleya, Mon Mothma, Dedra, and Bix were all given satisfying conclusions (or brutal consequences), tying off nearly every thread this show set up since Season 1. And yes — we talk about that heartbreaking but hopeful final scene with Bix.

If you’re a fan of tight storytelling, rich worldbuilding, and a flawless setup for Rogue One and A New Hope, this is the podcast for you.

In this episode, we’ve got a lot to cover from the darkest corners of the galaxy. First up, we give our full review and episode rankings for Star Wars: Tales of the Empire – Underworld. From underworld politics to bounty hunter drama, we break down which episodes hit hard, which ones fell flat, and where the series stacks up in the animated lineup.

Then we shift gears and go deep into Andor Season 2, Episodes 7–9 — a powerful arc that finally brings the Ghorman Massacre to live action. We talk about the build-up, the brutal execution, and the emotional fallout for characters like Syril, Cassian, and Bix. Plus, we unpack Mon Mothma’s epic speech and dramatic exit from the Senate, which officially sets the rebellion in motion.

If you love Rebels, Rogue One, or just high-stakes Star Wars storytelling, this arc is essential viewing. And we’re here to break it all down — lore connections, character beats, and those top-tier cinematic moments that made our jaws drop.

Hit play, join the conversation, and may the Force be with you. Always.

This week on the show, we’re back with a stacked episode full of Star Wars news, hype, and deep dives! We kick things off by reacting to the first behind-the-scenes look at Rosario Dawson back in the Ahsoka costume as production on Ahsoka Season 2 officially begins. The lekku are back, and so are the wild fan theories.

Next up, we talk about Tales of the Empire: Underworld—specifically the surprise reveal that the first two episodes are dropping in Fortnite on May 2nd. Yes, you read that right. We break down what this means for Star Wars storytelling and whether it’s a clever move or just weird marketing.

Finally, we go full deep dive into Andor Season 2, Episodes 4–6. From the long-awaited Ghorman Massacre canonization to Saw Gerrera’s madness, Bix’s haunting arc, and Mon Mothma’s breaking point, we cover every inch of this tense and emotional arc. Is Syril being played by Dedra? Is Luthen starting to unravel? Will Cassian and Bix be on Ghorman during the massacre?

As always, we throw in a few laughs, some theorizing, and a whole lot of love for this galaxy far, far away.

Star Wars Celebration Japan 2025 gave us a bantha-load of exciting reveals, and we’re breaking them all down on this week’s show! From the stunning teaser for Maul: Shadow Lord, to the return of The Ninth Jedi, we’re pumped but what was revealed. We also talk about Sigourney Weaver's role in The Mandalorian & Grogu movie, the official cast updates and plot points for for Ahsoka Season 2, and yes—it’s true—Ryan Gosling is joining the galaxy far, far away in the new Starfighter movie.

Then we shift gears for a full deep dive into Andor Season 2, Episodes 1–3. We unpack the slow-burn brilliance of the premiere arc, the emotional gut punches, Mon Mothma’s brutal family life, and why Syril Karn might just be the weirdest (and best) Star Wars character ever. Plus, we highlight all the best Easter eggs, callbacks, and lore drops that Tony Gilroy snuck into this arc like a Rebel spy.

It’s a jam-packed episode with plenty of laughs, theories, and fan-fueled hype. Whether you’re a Jedi Master or just Force-curious, there’s something here for you. Tune in and may the hype be with you!

Okay, buckle up, Star Wars fans! Your favorite hyperspace holonet feed (that's us!) just dropped another packed podcast episode, and you need the intel. Seriously, grab your caf and settle in, because we went from exciting whispers to confirmed drops this week!

First up, the rumor mill is buzzing louder than a Wookiee co-pilot after losing a Dejarik match. Word on the street is that Mikey Madison (you know her from Scream and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood) might be jumping to a galaxy far, far away for Shawn Levy's upcoming Star Wars project! We break down the rumor, its potential validity, and what kind of character she could possibly play. Could this be the next big casting coup?

Speaking of official news, remember that mysterious game from the strategy masters at Bitreactor? Well, it has a name! Get ready for Star Wars: Zero Company. The title alone has our minds racing – what kind of squad-based, strategic mayhem awaits us? We dive into the possibilities.

But wait, there's more! Tony Gilroy, the mastermind behind Andor, dropped some intriguing hints about potentially exploring... Star Wars HORROR? You heard that right. Could we be getting something genuinely spooky set in the Star Wars universe? Our imaginations are running wild with this one! And if that wasn't enough nostalgia fuel, the legendary Jim Cummings himself mentioned doing some facial capture work recently. While he didn't confirm what for, our credits are firmly on a potential return for everyone's favorite Weequay pirate, Hondo Ohnaka! Can you imagine Hondo in glorious modern animation or even live-action? We discuss the glorious possibilities!

Finally, with Andor Season 2 speeding towards us (April 22, 2025 – mark those calendars!), we dedicated a big chunk of the show to everyone's favorite gritty spy thriller. We laid out 10 things the FANS desperately want to see happen, from specific character arcs to plot resolutions. Then, we put on our predicting hats (they look suspiciously like Cassian's beanie) and gave our own 10 predictions for what might actually go down based on Gilroy's style and where the story needs to go before Rogue One. How much overlap is there? You'll have to listen to find out!

That's just the highlights, folks! For the full deep dive, all the context, and our usual brand of insightful (and sometimes chaotic) commentary, you gotta tune into the latest episode. Find it wherever you get your podcasts, or hit the link right here on the site!

What piece of news has YOU most excited? And what's your number one hope for Andor Season 2? Let us know in the comments below! Until next time, may the Force be with you.

Strap in, Star Wars fans—this week’s episode was loaded with reveals, rumors, and a spicy debate or two. If you missed the livestream, here’s what went down in a galaxy not so far away…

We kicked things off with the big news: Bit Reactor’s Star Wars turn-based strategy game finally has a name. We broke down what we know so far, from the likely factions and time period, to why this could be the next big thing for fans of XCOM-style gameplay. If you’re into strategy and want to see if your squad can outsmart the Empire, this one’s for you.

Next, we turned our attention to Andor Season 2, and we have the episode runtimes! Let’s just say, they’re giving us plenty of room for slow-burn espionage, political tension, and that grounded Star Wars storytelling we loved in Season 1. We speculated on what longer episodes could mean for content creators and fans alike. Is it too much to ask each week to sink over two hours into a TV series?

And finally… we asked the question that split the chat right down the middle:

Are Star Wars stories better without the Jedi?

We debated both sides—whether the Jedi elevate the mythos, or if the galaxy shines brighter when the focus shifts to rebels, spies, and scoundrels.

Catch the replay, drop your thoughts in the comments, and may the discourse be with you!

Fellow Star Wars fans, this week’s episode was packed with some of the most exciting Star Wars news and debates we’ve had in a while!

First up, we dove into the world of Star Wars gaming, where big things are coming. One of the standouts? Bit Reactor’s upcoming turn-based strategy game. If you love the tactical depth of XCOM mixed with Star Wars’ rich universe, this could be the game to watch. We speculated on which factions might be playable and how this might change the way we experience Star Wars battles.

Next, we broke down the reveal of Tales of the Underworld, a brand-new animated anthology series focusing on the galaxy’s shadiest characters. Think bounty hunters, crime syndicates, and all the back-alley dealings that make the underworld tick.

And finally, we tackled the age-old question: Which side of the Force is truly stronger, the Light or the Dark? Passion and power vs. peace and discipline—it’s a battle that has raged for generations.

Missed the episode? Catch the replay now and let us know—which side of the Force do YOU think is stronger?
