Episodes

Ep073 - Back Again - (The Bad Batch Season 2 Ep 1-2)

1/4/2023

I'm back again with another chat about the bad batch! Hard to believe we are 73 episodes in and talking about morals, ethics, right and wrong, family and everything starwarsy from the past, present and the future. I've been a little less excited about some of the recent directions taken by Disney if I am honest. That and the busyness of life has prevented me from chatting about it all again. But, the Bad Batch still seems safe enough and fits in with my main focus of FAMILY entertainment! Enjoy the show,

Ep072 - Did Princess Leia Know Ben? (Kenobi Chat)

6/14/2022

Another happy landing with this one! enjoy the show! :)

Ep071 - What Does Reva Really Want?

6/7/2022

Reva, What do you think of her? A lot of strange and uncivilised comments floating around the galaxy about Moses - I don't think we need to waste any more of our time with the people that are simply out to attack an actress simply trying to make her way in the galaxy. My Question is, what is her character up to? What are her real motivations. Who is she really behind all those layers! Let me know what you think! :)

Ep070 - Has Kenobi Killed A New Hope?

6/7/2022

The first of my Kenobi Series ramblings. Going to take this one one a slightly different way. Honing our focus a little bit at a time rather than munching on a fast food extra large! It means most of my speculations will end up getting missed, but never fear, they'll probably still appear! In this ramble, I randomly start talking about the issues that some people are having with the parent retcon on ANH and if it really matters. HAS KENOBI KILLED A NEW HOPE? What are your thoughts? Let me know on our twitter account! :)

Ep069 - Kenobi By J. J. Miller (Chp 36-47)

6/1/2022

This is the Finale! Part 4 all in one go - it's quite a bit to chew off in a short period of time - but hoping this will give you another taste of what to expect when you read the book. It also should give some insight into who and what we might see in the show! :)

Duration:00:20:03

Ep068 - Kenobi By J. J. Miller (Chp 28-35)

5/25/2022

So far, this has been my favourite section. It has been filled with a little bit of fighting, relationship, secrecy and a bit more depth into the thinking of Kenobi post Mustafar and the fall od Anakin. Definitely looking forward to some of these themes reappearing next week, but if this is all we ever get on the mindset of Kenobi I would also be more than content! Enjoy! :)

Ep067 - Kenobi By J. J. Miller (Chp 22-27)

5/25/2022

Thing are little quieter in this section of the book. the chaos of previous pages give way to more reflection and the revelation of Ben's surname, which turns out to be quite a popular name on Tatooine strangely enough! Again, more background building for the chapters to come and the story to unfold!

Duration:00:26:39

Ep066 - Kenobi By J. J. Miller (Chp 16-21)

5/18/2022

Things really are heating up for Ben under the two suns of Tatooine! How long will he be able to remain anonymous. How long before Luke get caught up in the chaos. How long before he slips up! Stay tuned as we continue reading through a really great depiction of a much loved character!

Ep065 - Kenobi By J. J. Miller (Chp 12-15)

5/11/2022

Welcome to Part two of Kenobi - The Killing Ground! Quite an ominous title isn't is? Well in this episode we don't really get to see much killing, in fact, nothing at all until the final line of Chapter 15! Who knows what is going to happen from here. Tensions are rising among the Tuskens, Annileen isn't all that excited about the influence of Orrin on her kids and we get a little bit more of the emotions surrounding both Annileen and Ben. Enjoy! :)

Ep064 - Kenobi By J. J. Miller (Chp 7-11)

5/10/2022

Well, the scene has been well and truly set. The next section is called The Killing Fields, which sounds pretty intense compared to, 'The Oasis'. Chapters 7-11 of Kenobi reveal the dangers around little Luke's adoptive family and shows some connections between Episode 2, Anakins Fall and the present day threat of the Tuskens! Enjoy!

Ep061 - Kenobi By J. J. Miller (Introduction & Chp 1)

5/4/2022

Hello There and welcome back to the show! Since the Book of Boba Fett came to an end, I have been taking a break from podcasting generally. But with Kenobi on the horizon, there had to be some preparation done for the show - what better way to do that than to read J. J. Millers Best selling book! I've enjoyed the prologue and the opening chapter - why not join in as we read together episode by episode! :)

Ep060 - The Assassin Arc (TCW Season 3 Ep 7)

2/22/2022

In this episode I chat about the The Clone Wars Season 3, Episode 7 from a more thoughtful point of view. Hope you enjoy it! Philippians 4:6-7 also got a mention! :)

The time has come. My last instalment of TBOBF predictions. This is day before the grand finale arrives - what are you hoping to see and witness with your eyes tomorrow!! Embo, Bossk, other bounty hunters? What about Han Solo!? Also discussed, is Din Djarin weak? I think he is more complex than we think.

Chp 6.0 - "From The Desert Comes A Stranger" - The Book of Boba Fett Review

2/6/2022

So another show...mando show in the book of Boba Fett? How do you feel about that? Does it bother you or are you just so glad we got such a wide range of characters represented here that it doesn't even matter? I'm in the latter camp - another great show - while not TBOBF heavy, it was still great to see the connections. Subscribe for Tuesday episode of predictions and thoughts for Chapter 7! :)
