Matthew, Alex (also known as "Where is Jimmy"), and Erin (also known as "A Sapphic Love Affair") dissect the middle chapters of Andor Season 2. The group dives into how these pivotal episodes mark the halfway point of both the season and the entire Andor series, discussing the show's transformation into a sophisticated spy drama within the Star Wars universe.The hosts analyze how Cassian Andor has transitioned from a side character in the first three episodes to now taking center stage. His complex relationship with Bix becomes a major focus, with the hosts questioning whether their relationship is healing or codependent. What began as a seemingly sweet reunion ultimately reveals deep trauma, culminating in a shocking revenge scene that surprised everyone.Key Storylines and Discussion PointsThe hosts examine multiple concurrent plotlines developing across different planets. Saw Gerrera's militant rebel faction introduces bizarre elements like "radonium huffing" that may explain his physical deterioration by Rogue One. Meanwhile, the Ghorman storyline showcases inexperienced rebels making fatal mistakes despite warnings from more seasoned fighters like Cassian.The Imperial Security Bureau (ISB) scenes particularly captivated the hosts, with Syril's complex double-agent role generating significant discussion. The memorable phrase "turn out the lights" between Dedra and Syril sparked playful speculation about their unconventional relationship, while Mon Mothma's careful political maneuvering at an Imperial gala showcases her walking a dangerous line.Additional topics discussed:Did the shocking Dr. Gorst murder scene feel earned or rushed?How does Tony Gilroy excel at writing powerful monologues, particularly Val's heartbreaking speech after Cinta's death?Why was Benjamin Bratt's recasting as Bail Organa jarring for some fans?What connections exist between the rebel base location and The Force Awakens?How do the Ghorman massacre references cleverly incorporate EU/Legends material into canon?What parallels exist between Imperial loyalty oaths and real-world nationalist rituals?Which moments highlight the stark contrast between amateur and professional rebels?The hosts conclude by noting they attended a theatrical screening of Revenge of the Sith, teasing bonus content for premium subscribers in their next episode. This mid-season analysis captures how Andor continues to elevate Star Wars storytelling with sophisticated character development, political intrigue, and morally complex takes on rebellion. **************************************************************************This episode is a production of Star Wars Generations, a The Ethical Panda Podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

Andrew and Merisha discuss the disparity of influence on new Star Wars material between the EU/Legends and the new canon
Thanks to listener Siobhan for the suggestion for the topic of this week's episode: the Star Wars Expanded Universe! Slash Star Wars Legends! We're talking this week about the weird and wacky world of pre-Disney Star Wars. This episode is a little different, as we are talking a little bit about a lot of different Star Wars content that Mike and Josiah are familiar with. Books! Video games! Comics! You name it! We have a little bit of everything in this episode. We would love to dive down deeper into specific EU/Legends books and games and such in the future, but for now, we thought we'd start out by giving y'all a scattershot of our feelings about the expanded universe as a whole. Past and future guest of the show Michael Delaney also drops by for another game of Real or Fake, where Mike and Josiah have to determine if Delaney's plot summaries of crazy stories from the EU are real...or fake? If you have any comments or suggestions, you can email us at agoodpodcast@gmail.com. Or hit us up on Instagram and Twitter @howstarwarsisit. You can also follow Mike @MikeGospel and Josiah @TheJosiahMan. And don't forget to rate and review on iTunes, or wherever you get your podcasts!

On the April 16 2019 episode of /Film Daily, /Film editor in chief Peter Sciretta is joined by managing editor Jacob Hall and Senior writer Ben Pearson to talk about the latest Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker news. We'll also discuss Peter's theory based on one shot from the trailer. And we'll answer your mailbag questions about the final chapter of the Skywalker saga. You can subscribe to /Film Daily on iTunes, Google Podcasts, Overcast, Spotify and all the popular podcast apps (here is the RSS URL if you need it). Opening Banter: Before we get into the news, Ben gives us his reaction to the Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker teaser trailer. In The News: Peter: JJ Abrams Explains The Title of ‘Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker', George Lucas' Involvement And Palpatine's Return Ben: ‘Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker' Ending Changed During Production, Kathleen Kennedy Talks About the “Blueprint” to Bring Palpatine Back, and More Peter: John Boyega Hints At What We Can Expect From ‘Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker' Ben: J.J. Abrams On Rey's Parents: “There's More to the Story” in ‘The Rise of Skywalker' Peter: Is This Spaceship the Key to Unlocking the Biggest Secret of ‘Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker'? In The Mailbag: Talmerian writes in “Am I the only one who saw the opening scene with Ray as some sort of training exercise? There's just a feeling or look that indicates to me she is trying something new and testing herself. Great episode!” Declan from Toronto writes in “Hey Peter here is a possible theory of how the Emperor has made his return. This is pulling from both the expanded universe and canon. Remember that Darth Sidious (Emperor) was the apprentice of Darth Plagueis, a sith Lord that was so powerful and knowledgeable in the dark side that he could influence midi-chlorians to create life and also keep people from dying. In the expanded universe Darth Sidious learned all of Darth Plagueis' powers and when he had nothing left to learned he killed Plagueis as was the way of the rule of two. In canon you recall in Revenge of the Sith the scene where Palpatine told Anakin about the story of Darth Plagueis and his power. So it's not too far fetch to consider that the Emperor used this power to save himself at the end of Return of the Jedi...just a thought. P.S. Sorry Chris, I have a feeling this will not make you feel any better about the movie.” Cade L writes in: “1) The planet in the SW:IX trailer could be Yavin? the site of the first Death-star destruction and some Jedi Temples and such (according to some EU Legends). Maybe they're after a holocron? 2) Is Endor the moon or the planet? -- I just watched ROTJ again, and I'm pretty sure Vader and the Emperor refer to the planet where the shield generator is and where the ewoks are as "Endor"...I think the moon itself is called "Endor." and although the Ewok Adventure movies are not canon (at least I think they are not) - there are desert scenes in those films...so the mysterious trailer planet could be Endor Also....let's give some love to the Ewok movies eh? 3) If Palpatine is a force ghost, that would negate the moral tale within ROTS. That film seems to indicate that the dark side cannot produce immortality, but can only prolong physical life (ugly, hateful, sickly life). Whereas, Qui-Gon discovers that there is immorality with the lightside...through ghost-hood? I think that is an important thematic idea as it further cements the tragic irony of Anakin's turn= in seeking immortality for those he loves through the dark side, he brings them death. Whereas by letting go of life and turning to the light side, one can achieve an "immortality" within the force. Assuming JJ cares about that distinction, I would assume Palpatine is alive physically in IX 4) All in all = it would have been nice to have very little Original Trilogy throw-backs in this new trilogy. As it is, Rey, Finn and co. are not going to be given their own story -- their trilogy ends just as their story is really beginning. Having the original characters play so prominently in the new story does a disservice to the new characters. Anyway, Abrams and Kennedy were not brave enough to do this trilogy without massive fan service. JJ tends to do that anyway (look at Into Darkness). Oh well. I look forward to Palpatine anyway…” All the other stuff you need to know: You can find more about all the stories we mentioned on today's show at slashfilm.com, and linked inside the show notes. /Film Daily is published every weekday, bringing you the most exciting news from the world of movies and television as well as deeper dives into the great features from slashfilm.com.

We're back! After a long (too long) layoff, The Exhaust Port podcast is back with a rambling edition of Book Club! Dave Bartholomew joins me to discuss the amazing novel Leia, Princess of Alderaan by the undisputed queen of Star Wars writing, Claudia Gray herself. Gray delivers another must-read addition to the growing Star Wars canon, once again centering on everyone's favorite Disney princess, Leia Organa herself. The novel is a coming of age tale for a 16-year-old Leia, detailing her discovery that her adoptive parents are key members of the Rebel Alliance, her entry into galactic politics, and the start of a lifelong friendship to none other than Amilyn Holdo! Coming to grips with the need for sacrifice and experiencing love and loss for the first time in her life, Leia Princess of Alderaan is a must-read for any Star Wars fan. We also loop in a tiny bit of discussion on another amazing Star Wars book, Rebel Rising by Beth Revis, contrasting the late-teen years of Jyn Erso against those of Leia - including the differences in their respective mentors and the paths they walk to essentially arrive at the same point. For this episode's edition of our ongoing series May the 4's Be With You, Dave and I tackle the topic of our four favorite novels in the new Star Wars canon (sorry EU / Legends heads...). As you can guess, our lists are pretty similar, but there are a few differences. We also go into a little praise and love for the various story narrators, as we both absorb our content via audiobook as opposed to the old school method of actually reading. While we are on the subject of Star Wars novels, please take a peek at our new Star Wars Reading Guide - especially if you're wanting to get into reading Star Wars novels and are feeling a bit overwhelmed (which is understandable)! We have outlined the best starting points to get you up and reading, and where to proceed from there, providing the newbie a great guide to getting started in the world of the Star Wars canon outside of the films and animated series'. Thanks again for listening, and make sure to subscribe and leave us a review, as it helps the podcast a TON! Lastly, feel free to drop us a line on our site, Twitter, and/or Facebook - we love to hear from you guys and appreciate your feedback! ~May The Force Be With You, Always!
