    Who Would Win
    Scorpion vs Mace Windu - Who Would Win Unleashed

    Who Would Win

    With Star Wars and Mortal Kombat commanding the spotlight in geek culture, Who Would Win: Unleashed brings you a fight so intense it's almost dangerous to imagine. Eric Holmes steps into the ring with Scorpion, the undead ninja whose vengeance-fueled arsenal is as brutal as it is diverse. We're talking hellfire blasts that burn through any defense, teleportation attacks that turn distance into a death trap, and that iconic spear strike—“Get over here!”—that drags enemies straight into their doom. Eric's not just talking fatalities; he's building a case for a supernatural predator who can fight across realms and finish the job with flawless execution. This isn't a kombatant—it's a relentless force of nature.Across the battlefield, James Gavsie unleashes Mace Windu, the Jedi Master whose mastery of Vaapad makes him one of the most dangerous Force-users in the galaxy. Wielding his signature purple lightsaber, Windu channels dark side energy without succumbing to it, turning an opponent's aggression into his own weapon. James breaks down how Windu's precognition, devastating speed, and raw combat mastery could cut through Scorpion's relentless offense, even in the face of supernatural powers. It's Netherrealm fury versus Jedi discipline, hellfire versus lightsaber, and only one warrior walks away. There's only one way to find out who claims victory—press play.Strap in—this is Who Would Win: UNLEASHED at its finest.Email - whowouldwinunleashed@gmail.comYou can now support us on Patreon at Patreon.com/WhoWouldWinShowCheck out the Who Would Win Unleashed YouTube Channel!Join our Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/whowouldwinshowFollow us on X/Twitter: @jamesgavsie @whowouldwinshowFollow us on IG and Threads: @WhoWouldWinShow @jamesgavsie @theericholmesCheck out the Who Would Win Merch Store:https://saywerd.co/collections/who-whould-win-merchSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/who-would-win/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/who-would-win/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    What started as a 4:15 a.m. thought spirals into a full-blown deep dive on biblical fashion, purple sashes, and why Jesus might have been the original Ninja Turtle. Todd and Eric debate the historical practicality of robes, speculate on sash functionality (storage? style? loaves and fishes?), and take detours into Jedi wardrobe choices, South Park, and Genghis Khan's surprising contributions to humanity—namely, pants and hamburgers. It's equal parts history lesson, pop culture mash-up, and random middle-of-the-night musing that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about ancient wardrobes.Why purple is tied to royalty and how it became part of Jesus' look.Artistic choices in depictions of the Last Supper.The robe-versus-pants dilemma of biblical times.Genghis Khan's surprising fashion and food legacy.Jedi wardrobe logic (or lack thereof).The Ninja Turtle method of character differentiation applied to apostles.The possible practical uses of a sash (including storing miracles).

    Episode 132 - Dave Barclay - My Life With Animatronics. Movies, Puppets and Beyond!At just 19 years old, Dave Barclay found himself stepping into the role of chief puppeteer for Yoda in The Empire Strikes Back. It was the start of an extraordinary career in animatronics and puppetry that would see him bringing to life some of cinema's most beloved and memorable characters. In this episode, Dave takes us back to his creative beginnings, growing up in a family of puppeteers, and the serendipitous chain of events that led from working in Hamleys toy shop to meeting Mark Hamill — and ultimately joining Stuart Freeborn's Yoda team. We cover:His early inspirations from Planet of the Apes to making masks at home.The technical and creative challenges of performing Yoda alongside Frank Oz.Becoming chief puppeteer for Jabba the Hutt in Return of the Jedi.Working on The Dark Crystal, Little Shop of Horrors and Who Framed Roger Rabbit.The importance of collaboration between puppeteers, animators, special effects teams and actors.The process of writing his new autobiography My Life with Animatronics, Movies, Puppets and Beyond, filled with stories and photos from across his career.Dave's journey is a mix of artistry, technical problem-solving, and being in the right place at the right time — but also about saying “yes” when opportunity knocks. Listen now to hear stories from a man whose work has shaped how we see and believe in some of cinema's most iconic creatures.

    3I/Atlas is the lead ship in a small fleet led by US Navy “Jedi” Admirals who have taken over the disclosure process on Earth according to George Kavassilas, an extraterrestrial contactee and secret space program insider. He says that the admirals are asserting their authority over the Earth Alliance and Galactic Federation of Worlds in taking charge of the disclosure process which will begin with astronomers and scientists overwhelmingly accepting the artificial nature of 3I/Atlas.Kavassilas says that by 2027, 3I/Atlas will complete its return trajectory through our solar system which involves it rendezvousing with all major planets to communicate with the civilizations living there. This will enable 3I/Atlas to change the frequency of our solar system thereby facilitating the transition to a higher density.Significantly, Kavassilas says that the Galactic Federation was infiltrated by extraterrestrial mimics but was recently cleaned up, due to the intervention of the Jedi admirals. He also corroborated information from Dr. Andrea Martin, Michele Porto Freire, and Erica Amoreena discussing the Galactic Envoy Program, and how the Deep State has been abducting and traumatizing Envoys since their early childhood.Kavassilas explains how synthetic Nordics have been trying to take control of the space arks and this has caused problems due to their superiority complex and being members of the Galactic Federation. He discusses how learning to distinguish between organic and synthetic Nordics will be an important exercise in discernment for all humans destined to interact with them.Finally, Kavassilas reveals his participation in secret official meetings in the Washington DC area discussing future disclosure initiatives, which will culminate in President Trump becoming the preeminent world leader in open contact after he and Pope Leo XIV officially welcome human-looking aliens to Earth in 2027.George Kavassilas website is https://www.ourjourneyhome.earth/Join Dr. Salla on Patreon for Early Releases, Webinar Perks and More.Visit https://Patreon.com/MichaelSalla/

    Episode Summary:In the third and final chapter of our Star Wars original trilogy series, Scott, Candice, and guests take the mic with a few extra drinks and zero fear of ruffling fanboy feathers. This episode is all about changing canon, fixing missed opportunities, and imagining what could have been in the galaxy far, far away.From rapid-fire “Jedi or Sith” questions to deep dives on Ewok backstories, Captain Phasma fan theories, and why Boba Fett might be overrated, no character is safe. We pitch spin-offs for the underappreciated, debate which moments in The Rise of Skywalker should be rewritten, and even ask the ultimate question—should Episodes VII, VIII, and IX have been made at all?Plus, you'll hear:Which character one host would happily launch out of a cannon.Why the Luke and Leia kiss still gives everyone the ick.A theory that turns Jar Jar Binks into a secret Sith Lord.A surprisingly dark fan theory about Obi-Wan and the fate of Owen and Beru.Our most unpopular Star Wars opinions (brace yourself, purists).It's chaotic, it's passionate, and it's exactly the kind of spirited debate you'd expect from Disney adults who have been drinking since morning.

Is LFL ever going to release the version of A New Hope that was originally released in 1977? And the dawn of a new age regarding a classic segment.

    Rob and new co-host James talk all things Star Wars. This week we bring you Star Wars news fresh off the Holonet — from upcoming shows and movie rumors to galaxy-shaking updates from the world of collectibles, games, and beyond. Don't miss our weekly segment, "Jedi of the Week", where we shine a blue lightsaber on heroes (and sometimes anti-heroes) of the Jedi Order — from iconic masters like Yoda to underrated legends hiding in the Outer Rim. We also crack open the Jedi Archives with our Star Wars Book Talk, diving into two essential reads: Star Wars: Dark Disciple — the thrilling, emotional tale of Asajj Ventress and Quinlan Vos that blurs the line between light and dark. Star Wars: Allegiance — a bridge between Return of the Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker that follows Leia, the Resistance, and some stormtroopers with second thoughts. This week's main transmission: "Navigating the Galaxy: A Newbie's Guide to Star Wars." If you've ever wondered where to begin in this vast universe — movies, shows, animated series, books, canon vs. Legends — we'll help you pilot your ship through hyperspace without hitting a mynock.

    In 2025, “science tells us” isn’t just a statement - it’s a sales pitch, a power play, and a psychological Jedi mind trick all rolled into one. People don’t say it to invite a conversation - they say it to end one. Not to explore complexity, but to shut it down. Not to illuminate truth, but to wear a lab coat of credibility while peddling ideology, influence, or overpriced wellness shakes. I love this topic, so I decided to riff on it for you.

    Sooner or later, we all spend some time in the hospital, so Greg and Ed riff on their myriad experiences in Bangkok hospitals over the years. But before we get into that, we should note - due to Thailand's strict defamation laws, some of the places we talk about will remain nameless.  But with that out of the way, we can say that Thailand in general has pretty good medical care, and it is standard advice for travelers in neighboring countries to get over the border into Thailand if they have any medical problems. But, as Ed notes, Thailand does not have very good legal protections against medical malpractice: if a doctor makes a mistake, don't expect significant financial compensation from the Thai justice system. Greg and Ed then trade anecdotes about their own experiences in the Thai medical system, each with some good and bad things to say. Ed's life has been literally saved by competent doctors; Greg passed himself off as a Jedi in lieu of a real religion; both have been saved a ton of grief by getting a second opinion. Your mileage may vary, but both Greg and Ed agree, as a pure value proposition (i.e. what you get for the money), Thailand, though far from perfect, is a pretty good deal.  Listen in for some great advice on how to maximize your chances of getting a good experience at a Bangkok hospital.  As always, the podcast will continue to be 100% funded by listeners just like you who get some special swag from us.

    Sci-Fi July wraps up with Return of the Jedi (1983), the final installment of the original Star Wars trilogy—directed by Richard Marquand, guided by George Lucas, and packed with new creatures, recycled plot beats, and merchandising gold. Joining Mike to explore the film's legacy and limitations are Jamie Benning (Filmumentaries) and Stephen Scarlata (Best Movies Never Made), along with special guest Jim Bloom, associate producer on Empire and Jedi.From Jabba's palace to yet another Death Star, Jedi tries to close the saga with spectacle and sentiment—but not without creative compromises. We dig into the behind-the-scenes drama, the tonal whiplash between Ewoks and existential stakes, and how Jedi served as both a climax and a commercial pivot point for the franchise. Was it a fitting finale or just a soft landing pad for action figures? Strap into your speeder bike, it's going to be a bumpy ride.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.

    It's A STORM OF SPOILERS: A STAR WARS SPECIAL! This week, Dave and Neil take a moment to think about how George Lucas' Star Wars trilogies and the content produced by Disney after its acquisition are in discussion with the American political climate of the 1970s, 80s, 2000s, and mid-2010s. They end by speculating on what Star Wars character aligns with their political journeys and wondering if Grogu has any politics.
