This week we're going back to our favorite Star Wars author, James Luceno, with Catalyst: A Rogue One novel. The backstory on the design and construction of the first Death Star is a perfect story for Luceno to be telling. Like his other works it might be light on the action, but it makes up for that in character building, political in-fighting, and the overall general wormy sneakiness that is Orson Krennic. How did the Ersos meet Saw Gerrerra? Why is Galen such a sucker while Lyra seems to be so on the ball? Would things have been easier for everyone if Krennic and Tarkin had just settled their conflict with blasters at dawn? Everything but that last question will be answered here. We know that Tarkin is too smart to fight face to face at this point in his life. But if you didn't hate Krennic quite enough before here are many more reasons for you to start. The Skywalker saga may be over, but there are enough books to keep Star Wars fans satisfied for years to come. Chad, Ryan, and Beth have started a series to keep you up to date on all the action. Join our book club as we run down the best that canon, legends, and comics have to offer. Music by Lester Dragstredt of http://www.themysterymenofsurf.com/ (The Mystery Men?)

Valdek on tegelikult metsasarve mängija Estonia teatris. Ta oli puhkpilli mänginud alates 14. eluaastast, kui liitus kooli puhkpilliorkestriga ja alustas õpinguid Tallinna muusikakoolis. Käinud läbi konservatooriumist ja Estonia teatrist, leidis Valdek meeldiva töökoha ERSOs. "Kui ooperi- ja balletirepertuaar sai läbi mängitud, leidsin, et peaks end veidi täiendama ja lapse pärast pidi ka elu veidi kohendama," põhjendab Valdek. "Ühtlasi hakkasin põhjalikumalt tegelema ka astroloogiaga."
The Erso family moisture farm receives some unexpected guests -- Superego superstars Matt Gourley and Mark McConville!
After a brief conversation about The Phantom of the Opera and how it relates to Star Wars at the moment, Bryan, Holly, and Mike talked about their favorite Rebels across the Star Wars saga. From the Ersos and the Organas and all points in between, they talk about why their stories are so tragic compared to our favorite Imperials. After that, they answer your emails!
