The Mandalorian and Grogu movie has arrived! How did it perform? Was it the best movie Lucasfilm has released since Rise of Skywalker? Of course! It's the ONLY Star Wars movie released since that one in 2019! Maul: Shadow Lord's first season is over and we know there will be a season two, but Ahsoka might not end after it's sophomore season. We have to wait for 2027 to find out and by that time, we'll be gearing up for another Star Wars movie!There's gaming news on Knights of the Old Republic and the spiritual successor, Fate of the Old Republic. Eclipse seems to need developers, which means it isn't cancelled. Collectors have lots to collect, like LEGO sets and Hasbro figures and there's even a chance someone can bring home Grogu (for the right price).There's a new ride mode in Galaxy's Edge and new planets to visit, new merchandise in the stalls of Batuu and a new show on the spires. Two legends in the Star Wars space pass into the Force and we have another "word" for you this month.Feel free to take part in contributing ideas and commenting on our podcasts on Spotify, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, on Facebook, through Amazon's podcast portal, or even on Discord.

Meigl, der großer Fan von Luis Trenker ist und als erster kurzbehoster Besteiger des Fockebergs gilt, fehlt entschuldigt, ist mit seiner Gattin in den Dolomiten unterwegs. Sein Ziel: Das legendäre Alpen-Edelweiß, aus dem der Podcast-Star eine Salbe für seine Syndesmose und die siechende Rotatorenmanschette mixen wollte. Die Manschette besteht aus Muskeln und Sehnen, die Meigls prähistorisches Schultergelenk zentrieren und für das Anheben des Hoffmannschen Arms bei Bierbestellungen sorgt. Das Edelweiß soll auch gegen nächtlichen Harndrang, Haarausfall und Bindegewebsschwäche helfen, weswegen Meigl am Berg ein üppig Sträußlein für seinen angedickten Rückfallzieher-Partner Guido pflücken wollte. Weil Meigls Suche nach Edelweiß unergiebig war, nahm er in einer Berghütte diverse Starkbiere zu sich. Und er sagte auch nicht nein, als die 112-jährige Sennerin einen Obstbrand aus dem Keller holte und beim Entkorken steif und fest behauptete, beim 1938 gedrehten Film „Der Berg ruft“ Luis Trenkers Lederhose mit Seiteneingriff gegerbt zu haben. Guido, der sich ohne Almöhi Meigl in Podcast-Ausgabe 270 wie vom Eise befreit fühlt, hat sich prominenten Ersatz ins Aufnahmestudio geholt. Der LVZ-Silberrücken spricht mit Torhüter-Legende und Ex-Nationalkeeper Perry Bräutigam, der ein Mann der ersten RB-Stunde 2009 und Club-Botschafter ist, über den gegen Augsburg überirdisch haltenden Maarten Vandevoordt, das Spiel der Roten Bullen in Stuttgart, die morscher werdenden Gelenke von Manuel Neuer, die bajuwarische 6:1-Macht-Demo gegen Bergamo und das LVZ-Sensationsinterview mit dem bodenständigsten und anständigsten Weltmeister aller Zeiten, der schwäbischen Ikone Guido Buchwald. Perry und Guido haben vorm Erdbeerkrieg mehrfach gegeneinander gespielt und gegensätzliche Erinnerungen. Während sich Guido an seine Flanken von Rechtsaußen erinnert, die er nach strammem Sprint in den 16er gegen den machtlosen Perry selbst verwertet hat, berichtet der berühmteste Sohn Altenburgs augenzwinkernd von leichtfüßigen Spielen gegen Mainz, die er und die Seinen aus Jena auch in Flossen aus dem Thüringer Kombinat „Schwimmen, nicht abtreiben“ gewonnen hätten. Präsentiert werden die Rückfallzieher von Optik Findeisen. Die Findeisen-Filialen in Wiederitzsch, im Pösna Park und in Naunhof sorgen für Rundumsorglos-Service, der auch bequeme Raten-Zahlungen beinhaltet.Termin telefonlsch oder digital (www.augenoptik-findeisen.de)buchen.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit zeteo.comAs one of the co-hosts of the massively popular podcast ‘I've Had It', Jennifer Welch has made a name for herself as a sharp-witted, foul-mouthed, uncomfortable-truth-bomb-dropping political commentator. Whether you've seen social media clips of her ranting about Donald Trump's poorly applied makeup or watched her eviscerate Sen. Cory Booker on AIPAC during their viral interview, Jennifer is shaking up the way liberal media thinks about political punditry. Now, she joins Mehdi on ‘We're Not Kidding' to talk about her political journey and rise to fame. Once an “MSNBC liberal” from the Bible Belt, Mehdi and Jennifer discuss her evolution on issues like corporate influence on the Democratic party and Israel-Palestine. They also get into the recent dump of Epstein files, including Elon Musk's “pathetic” attempt to get an invite to Epstein's island on Christmas, and how Joe Biden and the Democrats once again fumbled the ball. “Merrick Garland had these files for four f*****g years and didn't do anything with it!” Jennifer says.The two also discuss:- How atheism influences Jennifer's politics (and religion influences Mehdi's!).- Why Trump appeals to evangelical Christians.- Scott Jennings, Jesse Watters, and why Republican men are “submissive.”- Whether Epstein was a Mossad spy.- Which national Democrats should be “remodeled” and which should “retire.”Subscribe to Zeteo to support independent and unfiltered journalism: https://zeteo.com/subscribeWatch, listen and subscribe to ‘We're Not Kidding' on Substack: https://zeteo.com/s/were-not-kidding-with-mehdi-and-friendsFind Zeteo:Twitter: https://twitter.com/zeteo_newsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/zeteonewsTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@zeteonewsFind Mehdi:Substack: https://substack.com/@mehdirhasanTwitter: https://twitter.com/@mehdirhasanInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/@mehdirhasanTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mehdirhasanFind Jennifer:‘I've Had It': https://ivehaditpodcast.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mizzwelch/?hl=enCredits:Hosted by: Mehdi HasanGuest Host: Jennifer WelchExecutive Producer: Kiran AlviSenior Producer and Editor: Frank CappelloMusic: Andy ClausenDesign: Alicia TatoneMix Engineer: Valentino RiveraTitle Animation: Ehsaan Mesghali

This is the Way Podcast hopes your 2026 started off just the way you wanted. It's going to be an interesting year for Star Wars, but the calendar isn't full, by any measure.There is a new show debuting in April, a movie release a month later, and May the Fourth usually has some surprises. No "Star Wars Celebration" this year, even with The Mandalorian and Grogu coming, but Starfighter got a surprise "Cruise" member before wrapping up principal photography.Star Wars gamers will have to wait for new games, but there's an "old" one coming to the XBOX game pass. Hasbro listed three figures and a helmet this month and it might be smart to look up LEGO's newest offerings in the Star Wars category. Just make sure you go over the details brick by SMART brick before you make a purchase.There's Ahsoka news and maybe more awards for Andor and Disney parks is putting some original touches on Galaxy's Edge that could put a spark of rebellion back in Batuu.This is the Way Podcast will be participating once again in the annual Star Wars Podcast Day on February 7th of 2026. It's self-described as an annual, unofficial celebration of the Star Wars fan audio community. Each year, more and more podcasts and vodcasts join in for #StarWarsPodcastDay and #SWPD2026 will be the 6th year This is the Way Podcast releases an episode to take part!Feel free to take part in contributing ideas and commenting on our podcasts on YouTube, on Spotify, on Facebook, through Amazon's podcast portal, or even on Discord.

I'm shifting away from listening to podcasts and I'm a blog reader now.In Episode #508 of 'Meanderings', Juan & I discuss: why our media diets are shifting, how we each consume information across video, audio, books, Substack, X long‑form (even X Spaces), why written digital content is winning more of our attention lately, the flood of AI‑generated media (from YouTube videos to TTS podcasts spun from Reddit threads), the challenge of finding high‑signal sources, fiction vs non‑fiction swings, curation styles (tabs vs phone-first), rising ad density in pods/YouTube to near ad‑free long‑form writing and why subtlety and cadence get lost in AI summaries of long videos.

Black Friday has come and gone and although there are still deals to be had, you likely won't find good ones when it comes to Star Wars merchandise. Even sites that sell branded shirts put their merch on sale BEFORE Thanksgiving and most (I won't say all) ended those sales at midnight Eastern or Pacific in the states when Friday came to a close.Still, we DO have your Star Wars news from the month of November, including notes on Jeremy Allen White, Shawn Levy, Rosario Dawson, Rory McCann, and that's just regarding live action projects at Lucasfilm. There are a couple of gaming updates that will come in December pre-Christmas, and collectors have their share of Hasbro and LEGO news.Feel free to take part in contributing ideas and commenting on our podcasts on YouTube, on Spotify, on Facebook, through Amazon's podcast portal, or even on Discord.

In the Star Trek: Voyager episose Endgame, after 23 years in the Delta Quadrant, Admiral Janeway finally made it home, but at too high a cost. Now she's crossing time and space to rewrite history, determined to give her crew a better ending. But who decides what the "right" ending is?

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Natalie Orpett, Eric Columbus, and Molly Roberts, to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“I Don't Think You're Ready for the Shutdown.” The record-setting shutdown of the U.S. government is set to come to an end after eight Democratic senators agreed to a continuing resolution that will fund all of the government through January 30, certain chunks of the government all the way through the end of the fiscal year, and made a number of concessions along the way. What should we make of this deal, and what are the political ramifications—particularly for Democrats, many of whom are quite angry at those who ultimately voted for this plan?“Overt Acts.” Last week, in a move quite publicly celebrated by his controversial clemency czar Ed Martin, President Trump issued pardons for dozens of individuals accused of participating in efforts to manipulate the results of the 2020 election in his favor, including his former attorney Rudy Giuliani and other alleged “unindicted co-conspirators” in his own, since-abandoned federal criminal prosecution. Indeed, Trump himself was the only one who was federally indicted for 2020 election manipulations, making the most immediate legal effect of these pardons unclear. What is Trump trying to accomplish in issuing them? And what could the ramifications be for future elections?“Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.” Even as his prosecutions against James Comey and Letitia James have faced headwinds, the Trump administration appears to be moving full speed ahead with criminal investigations against other of his perceived enemies—including a large-scale investigation into government reports alleging Russian support for Trump in 2016 that was recently transferred from Justice Department officials in Eastern Pennsylvania to the more Trump-friendly terrain of Southern Florida. What is the current state of the revenge campaign the Trump administration has been pursuing, and where does it seem set to lead?In object lessons, Natalie is appreciating both “The History of the New Yorkers Vaunted Fact Checking Department” and the small army of neurotic geniuses who march forward in pursuit of journalistic integrity. Eric is appreciating The Week Junior, his daughter's favorite magazine that proves real journalism isn't just for grown-ups. Scott is appreciating The Far Side's online presence, updated daily—a reminder that the line between journalism and cartooning is always thinner than we'd like to admit. And Molly is appreciating an “illuminating” visit to Glenstone, where Jenny Holzer's art reads like journalism etched in light, documenting the lingering shadows of some dark subjects.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

In the Star Trek: Voyager episose Renaissance Man, The Doctor doesn't quite seem himself. In fact, he seems like just about everyone else on the senior staff. But the impersonations are part of a high-stakes mission: rescue Captain Janeway from a hostile alien race despite her veryspecific orders not to. It's EMH meets ECH meets identity crisis when Renaissance Man goes into the Mission Log.

Star Wars news remains scarce, but each month closer to the release of the next project brings us better insights as to what's coming, so why not talk a little about what has come this October? Last month, we got a trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu and this month we hear about Rotta and Colonel Bishop.Ahsoka's second season wrapped production, so now is when we wait until what's left of the Ghost crew gets their public relations directives. You hear that Ahsoka and Hera? Starfighter has a news note, too, believe it or not.Knights of the Old Republic may still get it's "Final Fantasy VII" style reimagining and Quantic Dream might be sleepwalking toward a celestial event. Batuu gets some old parts back...again...and collectors can score some pretty cool pieces of plastic, if they're willing to pay a premium.Feel free to take part in contributing ideas and commenting on our podcasts on YouTube, on Spotify, on Facebook, through Amazon's podcast portal, or even on Discord. May the Force be with us!

In the Star Trek: Voyager episose Friendship One, an old Earth probe was supposed to spread friendship across the galaxy. Instead, it sparked a planetary apocalypse. When Voyager finds the wreckage of Friendship One, they also find a civilization devastated by misused antimatter and eager to hold someone, anyone, accountable.

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode Author, Author, The Doctor takes his first stab at fiction, but his holonovel hits a little too close to home. Captain Jenkins is a sadist, Tulak relishes punishment, and Lt. Marseilles just wants to get in your pants. The crew is shocked. The Doctor calls it “art,” and a Federation publisher calls it “contractually locked.” As Voyager debates creative expression vs. defamation, a deeper issue emerges: does the author have rights? “Photons Be Free”—but only if Starfleet says so, in Author, Author on this week's Mission Log.

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode Q2, Q drops by Voyager for a surprise visit, and he brings Q with him. No, not himself… the other Q. His son. This junior Q is every bit as powerful, unpredictable, and exasperating as his old man, with none of the charm (yet). When the Continuum threatens to de-Q him permanently, it's up to Aunt Kathy to teach Q some responsibility before he's stuck living as an amoeba or worse, a teenager. Mission Log wrangles Q, Q, and more Q in Q2. Hosted by John Champion and Norman Lao MISSION LOG SURVEY: Take the survey NOW and you could win rare, original TOS film cells!

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode Human Error, Seven of Nine is trying something new: a little music, a little cooking, and a little romantic roleplay—typical holodeck experiments in humanity. But when feelings get real and a Borg failsafe kicks in, the cost of vulnerability may be more than just emotional. Oh, and yes, Voyager is also facing a dangerous space-time shockwave, but honestly?

The Mandalorian and Grogu is still months away, but it's clear that Disney is banking on the little green guy.

A new video game will be available soon for the virtual reality crowd and Disney Parks goers have to find the new place to hug Chewie and feel the dark side in the presence of Lord Vader.

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode Workforce, Captain Janeway's new life comes with decent hours, fair pay, and a promising romantic prospect. There's just one catch: she doesn't remember being Captain Janeway. Most of Voyager's crew have been given new jobs and new identities thanks to some suspiciously convenient amnesia. Is this an alien utopia, or forced labor? Maybe a stranger called "Amal Kotay" can make it all make sense.

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode The Void, Voyager gets pulled into a dark, starless region of space—no exits, no resources, and no friendly neighbors.

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode Prophecy, after decades adrift in the Delta Quadrant, a Klingon generation ship crosses paths with Voyager and finds what they've been looking for: a prophesied savior. Or rather, the unborn child of B'Elanna and Tom. Cue the ceremonial declarations, theological debates, and one very reluctant bat'leth duel. But when the Doctor uncovers a life-threatening illness among the Klingons, prophecy gives way to science, and that same baby might still be the key to salvation.

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode Repentance, Voyager rescues a damaged transport ship carrying prisoners to their execution. But when the Doctor uncovers a neurological condition at the root of one inmate's violent behavior, questions arise about guilt, rehabilitation, and justice. It's a classic tale of “what if your criminal justice system is built on flawed science and societal fear?” This week, Mission Log gets a sentence to Repentance.

It's August, and Star Wars news has been scarce for most of the month. Leave it to the last few days for a few notable updates to casts and crews to pop up.Voting for the Academy Awards has finished, but Andor made a push on YouTube with clips and character reels up to the last moment. LEGO revealed a trailer for new episodes of the Rebuild the Galaxy series coming next month, but there's also the possibility you'll be able to put real blocks together to remake the Death Star. ILM pats itself on the back with an article about VR gaming. Oga's Cantina goes standby in California and Smuggler's Run will be getting new routes.Feel free to take part in contributing ideas and commenting on our podcasts, on Spotify, YouTube, Facebook, Amazon's podcast portal, or even Discord. May the Force be with us!

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode Lineage, B'Elanna and Tom get the life-changing news that they're going to be parents. But joy quickly gives way to fear as B'Elanna confronts the pain of her past: her father's abandonment, her isolation, and the shame she felt about her Klingon heritage. Convinced she's sparing her child from pain, she attempts to re-engineer her daughter's DNA without telling Tom. But where's the line between protecting your child and erasing who they are?

Once upon a time, San Diego Comic Con would have been a major source of Star Wars news. Now, with Celebration and other comic cons spread across the world, SDCC's booth and hall prices have left it like the Dune Sea.Andor is up for awards this September and Ahsoka is filming. We're still living in a "post-Andor" world, but there's still news for collectors, gamers, and Disney park fans. Collectors should definitely check out HasbroPulse's website and there's a new one for a new museum coming next year. It's Lucasfilm's Museum of Narrative Art coming to Los Angeles and there's a link mentioned inside the podcast you might want to peruse.We know...it's YouTube and we're expecting you just to listen. You can watch the visualization, but we know not everyone likes to do it that way. Feel free to take part in contributing ideas and commenting on our podcasts, on YouTube, on Spotify, on Facebook, Amazon's podcast portal, or even Discord. May the Force be with us!

In the Star Trek: Voyager episode, Inside Man, there's a new Reg in town, and he's smoother, sharper, and more confident than ever. Almost… too confident.

And is Reg really trying to kill the crew, or just flirting badly with Seven? This week, Mission Log finds the Inside Man.
