June 2024's Star Wars News Update podcast by This is the Way Podcast is now available for listening on all our associated distribution network feeds.

It's a summer of Star Wars! Well, not really, but The Acolyte started streaming this month and that's something new. Is this podcast covering the show? You could say yes or no depending on your point of view. What's more Star Wars than that?

Gamers and collectors and Disney World parkgoers have something to listen to in the June news update and even if you don't like The Acolyte, you can get excited for Andor and the upcoming Skeleton Crew live action series!

If you have questions or comments or just want to express yourself and talk about the Star Wars you love, email This is the Way Podcast HQ at ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠ and may the Force be with you!

Hey, I know it's April, but it would seem that I never posted the link to the March 2024 Star Wars News Update. How could I be so forgetful?

March 2024's news update episode is available just before the end of the month, but it's Easter weekend, so it might be a slight gamble that something big do...

It's that time once again!

and This is the Way Podcast is observing it with a background episode on the host. This is the 25th year of podcasting about Star Wars, even if it's only the fourth . This is the Way Podcast has celebrated with an episode airing on the seventh of February every year, even if they haven't always been "special" episodes. Learn a little more about how This is the Way Podcast came out of the creative bedrock formed by growing up with Star Wars!

Star Wars news from the first month of 2024. January saw a movie announcement, a second season for the latest series, when the end will begin for The Bad Batch series, and as usual, there is gaming, collecting, and Disney Parks news to discuss.

I may have cracked the code on preventing "soft strikes" on YouTube copyrights for the podcast. Small consolation in an otherwise awful finish to 2023.

Just because the host doesn't personally have a great final few months of the year, it doesn't mean we stop podcasting about Star Wars! Do or do not...

I think it's safe to say this reveals how little I use the service EXCEPT for podcasting. I imagine that viewership would be much different.

With today's podcast episode release ( #146), This is the Way Podcast celebrates four years. It was the debut of Disney Plus and The Mandalorian and our 1st episode.

This is the Way Podcast's October 2023 Star Wars News Update episode is available on Spotify now and other outlets as the aggregators get to work.

We'll work on our YouTube version soon, but life obstacles were overcome to get this one out there on time!

Yes, we know you're still waiting on the Ahsoka finale and feedback and season review! Thanks for your patience!

One strike is over, another might be coming to an end, but Disney Plus Star Wars content is going on hiatus no matter what. It will be months before The Acolyte or Skeleton Crew appears on the streaming service, so I hope you like video game and collectible news! Yes, This is the Way Podcast STILL h...

This just in...

YouTube is THE WORST. I loathe the platform.

Episode 144 discussion of Ahsoka Part Seven is available.

Ahsoka has just one episode left after Dreams and Madness, Part VII. Remember the days when seasons were something like 20-25 episodes long? Back then, there...

Wow, YouTube. You're STILL striking my videos for laying some of Kiner's theme under the close, even with edits and alterations I made this week? I have a fair use case, but if it's just Russia and Belarus you don't want to have it, fine...for now.

Episode 142 of This is the Way Podcast is available now. "Far, Far Away" and Part Six of season one. Great title. Good episode. Only two remain so let's all hope this isn't just a season of set up for a movie and we feel some closure for the story we've been watching unfold.

Wait...The Office?

Leave it to "good ol' YouTube" to strike your video for even just a few short seconds of music, even if there is a good case for fair use.

Doesn't matter. Episode 141 of This is the Way Podcast is out. Shadow Warrior, Ahsoka Part V.

Ahsoka starts the second half of season one with a blast from the past we never got to see and Ahsoka doesn't even give Anakin a big hug. Seriously, if you g...

Copyright issues prevented an earlier release of Episode 140 of This is the Way Podcast. The final moments of Ahsoka, Part IV bring us to a place between the first half of the season and the second half...a "world between worlds" if you will. ;)

Ahsoka reaches the halfway point of the season by visiting the "World Between Worlds" introduced in the animated series, Rebels. If you had that on your bing...

Yeah, I know it could look better, but I went the "quick and messy Paint 3D" route to get back on track with my podcast instead of reinstalling Photoshop and spending an hour blending and making sure skin tones and lighting matched.

I mean, I was going to change the lamp into a lightsaber and the bottles into spotchka and put Shin and Ahsoka or Sabine in there.

Will Hondo Ohnaka or Maz Kanata end up in Ahsoka? Is finding Thrawn the only endgame for the series? Will the writing get better? Listen to This is the Way Podcast episode 139 to hear discussion on those questions and more!

Ahsoka doesn't have to be serious to be a good show. I mean, the character sure has been acting serious (and crosses her arms a lot), but Star Wars fans don'...

We did it! We released it before Tuesday's Part III!

Ahsoka's first episode set a tone and the second continued the theme. She's looking for Thrawn...oh, and Ezra, too. Hera and Sabine couldn't care less about ...

Andor all November. Manageable content since the last news update. Failed online shopping by the host for both Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Busy weeks ahead with Christmas programs and parties and presents. We got November's episode in before December.

Still haven't finished notes for the Andor finale. We'll get to it soon. Here's something to listen to between Christmas songs.

The end of November and the end of season one of Andor. 2022 coming to a close and the Christmas shopping season still underway. One Bob out and another Bob in, Ahsoka and Acolyte in production and season two of Andor shooting. Star Wars seems to be in good shape. We've got your usual video game and...
