In Episode 132, hosts Alyce and Laura are* being personally victimized by different major corporations

• Some highlights from the Andor season 2 trailer
• The Andor season 2 release schedule feels like an attack on podcasters/reviewers. Like, it feels personal and violent.
• Casual reminder that Andor is **cinema**
• The Revenge of the Sith strikes back! That is, it’s coming back to theaters for one week only!
• This listicle uses the word “cancelled” to describe these 20 Star Wars projects that never made it to screen, but we’re pretty sure at least 3 of these are made up. Sorry for using the word “listicle” unironically.
• Highlights from Deadline’s really long interview with Kathleen Kennedy about her retirement, fan scrutiny of Lucasfilm, her succession plan and more.
• We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again, we really have enough Darth Vader stories. Like, we have so far more than anyone asked for.
• What happens in Vegas may have already happened across the U.S., but that’s not going to stop sultry stormtroopers from shaking what their mama gave them
• Alyce is in her Naming Things era! Help her come up with names for her high elf (high as in highborn, not stoned) and her new robot vacuum

In Episode 131, hosts Alyce and Laura do* bad impressions and ponder important Star Wars questions like, did someone cut up a backpack to make Han and Luke’s medals in the throne room scene?

• What is buying a new house, if not an opportunity to DIY a padded room for the clinically insane?
• Oh yeah. Planet X is gonna get weird.
• A long time ago, in a galaxy no so far away, in an EA forum, before Order 66, there was Order 65
• More old [presumably crusty], very expensive Star Wars props for sale, in the off-chance you have a spare $400,000 laying around
• Marvel’s What If but make it Mace Windu (via Gamerant)
• Screenrant is speculating about the next Star Wars animated series and we’re all in
• Recap on Tap is all about The High Republic Phase III comics! Spoiler warnings all around: Marvel’s The High Republic (2025) Issue #1 has spoilers for the Tempest Breaker audio drama. If you want to avoid this conversation, skip 31:20-43:20.
• We’re also discussing The High Republic Adventures: Dispatches From the Occlusion Zone 4-issue miniseries WITH SPOILERS. We’ll note that we don’t know who any of these characters are, so we’re definitely missing some context, but what you need to know is 1) there is an escaped gorilla on the loose and 2) all roads lead to Dalna. If you don’t want to listen to our horrendous attempt at making sense of this miniseries, skip 43:25-1:00:50.
