Season 4, Episode 2 - Legacy of the Force II: Bloodlines

We keep things in the family with returning guest Ryan Davis for Bloodlines, a certified Book of Boba Fett plus his bounty hunter brood! Hear us praise author Karen Traviss' character development, theorize how Legacy of the Force tries to out-Prequel the Prequels, and feel disquieted by the novel's eerie real-world parallels in a time of militarized police and civil unrest...

Season 4, Episode 1 - Legacy of the Force I: Betrayal

A presumed-dead Marvel Star Wars villainess looms large over this next nine-book series, so it would be a karking shame not to consult luminary Marvel Star Wars Explorer Brian Rudloff to determine what the fierfek is going on!

Season 3, Episode 3 - Dark Nest III: The Swarm War

As the Dark Nest draws to a close and Luke Skywalker finishes watching Revenge of the Sith, the cry-curious Nate Tapp rounds out his trio of guest spots by tripling down on trilogy talk with us. Does The Swarm War warrant three hearty throat-clicks, or do we discard it like Huttwash (and if we discard, do we add two Swarm cards that cost 0 to our hand)?
