Brad and Sarah are joined by Danni (@DanniPurrgil) from Rogue Podron for our special preview episode of Star Wars: The High Republic Wave Three, which launches next week on Tuesday, January 4th! Are we terrified? Absolutely. Will we read these books anyways? Of course, because we (unfortunately) love a good tragedy set within a galaxy far, far away. So strap yourselves as we break down the latest High Republic news (9:40), reflect on our reading experiences, speculate over the light of the Jedi going dark (41:57), and answer your Twitter questions (1:40:25)!
