The Brain Slug Podcast

Here we are Force Fans... We’ve reached “The Last Jedi”, the Star Wars film that broke the fandom (not really). If you’re a fan of this fantastic addition to the series, we invite you to tune in and to let us know exactly why you love the penultimate chapter of the Skywalker Saga. 

We jump from 1983 to 2015 to talk about “The Force Awakens” as we head into the Sequel Trilogy in our “The Story Lives Forever” mini-series! Have a listen and then let us know what you think of the first film in the Disney era of Star Wars.  

We’re taking a break from the Saga films to talk about the OTHER amazing Star Wars thing going on right now: The Mandalorian. We’re talking season one up to this point (focusing mainly on Chapters 3-5), and you know if we’re talking about Mando, we have to talk about Baby Yoda too.

We’re at the end...well, the first end anyway. We’re talking "Return of the Jedi” on today’s The Story Lives Forever mini-sode, and you KNOW it has some of the most powerful moments in the entire Saga. Let us know what this particularly powerful Star Wars means to you!

As we get ever closer to the release of “The Rise of Skywalker” we’ve finally reached the Star Wars film many in the fandom consider to be the best of the Saga! You know we’re talking about “The Empire Strikes Back”, one of the greatest sequels ever made. It’s impossible to pick a favorite anything is this one, so we’ll allow you to pick the whole film. 

We’re back to where it all started with the fourth film in the series (a sentence only a Star Wars fan can understand). Tune in and find out what happens when a Gen Xer, a Xennial, and a Millennial talk about the original 1977 epic!

The whole trio’s back together to finish off the prequel trilogy in our “The Story Lives Forever” rewatch! Bust out the headphones and turn up that speaker, because you’re about to find out why “Revenge of the Sith” is both the best and worst prequel film, and why we love it regardless! 

Back again so soon? Of course! We have to talk the second movie in our “The Rise of Skywalker” rewatch: “Star Wars: Attack of the Clones.” Listen in and find out why it’s the funniest and most unique of the Saga films, and why the awkward love plot is perfect the way it is. 

Will “The Rise of Skywalker” reintroduce Midi-chlorians into the mix?? Will Palpatine have a new droid army as part of his final plan?? We discuss this and more on the first of our Skywalker Saga mini-sodes! Tag along with us as we revisit “Star Wars – Episode I: The Phantom Menace.”

Matt’s back in the “studio” to join us on the first of our 3 planned “The Mandalorian” focused episodes! All the tangents and Baby Yoda love you could ask for in a Star Wars podcast.
