This is the Way Podcast

It's another very special episode of This is the Way Podcast. Make sure there's a tape in the recorder and you have the correct channel on the VCR. Two years ago it was my dad. Last year, my oldest daughter. This year, my youngest. "May the Fourth be with you" this year as the "baby" of the family gets a chance to speak her mind about Star Wars. Don't expect a marathon of an episode. The purpose isn't to exhaust the listeners with the host's own children, but to share how Star Wars is thought about in the home. Like the elder sister, death and dying aren't favorite parts, but surprise, surprise, royalty is where it's at for her. Oh, did we mention the Taylor Swift reference? Someone's teacher apparently likes to "shake it off" in the classroom and spread her fandom to the family. As mentioned last year (5/4/23), there are no trick questions, but because we're using one microphone for two speakers, the editor did have to get creative with a few clips in order to hide as many of the sound level changes as possible. If you'd like to comment, please send email to ⁠thisisthewaypodcast@gmail.com⁠. We have been using Linktree, so check out our appropriate links at linktr.ee/ThisistheWayPod.

The April 2024 Star Wars news update episode stars off with a "my bad" as a result of constructive listener feedback. That's not a joke or a set up for a punch line. I have become overtly negative in my criticism of The Acolyte. I'm not suggesting there's reasons for me to be positive, but the old adage about not saying anything at all if you can't say something nice does have merit here. Why turn off potential listeners who disagree by laughing and expressing my hope for failure? Collectibles...Star Wars video game and board game news...the final episodes of The Bad Batch...the upcoming debut of The Acolyte...even news on the Skeleton Crew...lend an ear to the episode and let us know if you think we missed something. Are you the hostess from Ulele? Are you a friend from high school and/or college? Are you just someone who likes old school Star Wars? This podcast is definitely in your wheelhouse. If you have comments or questions (on this episode or the podcast in general) you can email us (well, me) or contact the show through one of our links found at our Linktree website (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linktr.ee/ThisistheWayPod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠).

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 doesn't come from Lucasfilm or Disney this weekend, but not as big a risk as The Acolyte action figures getting announced before anyone knows what kind of show it will be. Even the "Holocomm" collectibles seem a safer bet, but then again, it doesn't get much better than Darth Vader. Wait a second...are we LEADING the notes with collectibles? Yes. Oh, we are well aware The Acolyte released a trailer, but anything by Leslye Headland is "wait and see" because of her unproven track record and factual statements voluntarily given about her past and Star Wars in general. We don't have high hopes for the next live action Star Wars show, but we reserve judgment until actually seeing it. A reminder for Disney Parks news, a tidbit about a game company that kept plugging along after firings more than decimated a co-developer, the death of a casting agent, and a chance to see Star Wars in the theater, once again. Yeah, this definitely qualifies as a news update podcast. Disagree? Have comments or questions (on this episode or the podcast in general)?

This is the Way Podcast reached the 150 episode mark with the "Star Wars Podcast Day" episode earlier in February, but our news update for the month ticks in just before the close of the month on Leap Day. Carl, Cara, Cassian...video games coming and video games cancelled...hot collectibles and not so hot off the presses park news. February is a short month, but somehow we spent more than three and one half minutes more on the news this month than in January. The Bad Batch third and final season is releasing episodes now, but remember, This is the Way Podcast doesn't cover it episode by episode. We do first and second half recaps and those might not come until the summer, when The Acolyte is expected to start streaming. If you have questions or comments on this episode or the podcast in general, email us or contact the show through one of the links by visiting our Linktree page (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linktr.ee/ThisistheWayPod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠).

It's that time once again! #StarWarsPodcastDay2024 and This is the Way Podcast is observing it with a background episode on the host. This episode was commissioned for Star Wars Podcast Day 2024 which this year is being observed by a record number of podcasts (more than 100 for the second year in a row). It happens yearly on February 7th, which commemorates the first Star Wars centered podcast debut in 1999. That means this is the 25th year of podcasting about Star Wars even if it's only the fourth #SWPD. 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. This episode is a long rambling sort, but only because the host decided to talk honestly and openly. You'll hear a little about how the host grew up with Star Wars and why he loves it, how it formed his love of sci-fi and fantasy and what prompted the podcasting to begin. Not everyone will agree on the opinions contained within, so keep in mind that these are opinions and not a call to judge someone's level of Star Wars fandom. We love that you're joining us and if it's your first time here, we hope you'll check out all our episodes. Send feedback to us by email at ⁠thisisthewaypodcast@gmail.com⁠ or via X and ⁠Instagram⁠ @ThisistheWayPod. There are many podcasts out there releasing special episodes today and you can find them by visiting the celebration Instagram page ⁠@starwarspodday⁠ or on ⁠X⁠ or the ⁠Facebook⁠ page for the event.

New Year, same great news coverage from This is the Way Podcast! Disney Plus live action Star Wars shows aren't "coming soon" but January saw an official greenlight for a second season of Ahsoka and a new "The Mandalorian and Grogu" movie. Will there be a season four of The Mandalorian? That news would have to come in a future news update podcast. The Bad Batch third and final season is coming next month (February 21st) and finishes up before this year's May the Fourth. Star Wars Podcast Day 2024 is quickly approaching and there is the usual gaming, collecting, and Disney Parks news inside the episode. If you have questions or comments or have a question you'd like to ask about this podcast or podcaster, email us or contact the show through one of the links by visiting our Linktree page (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linktr.ee/ThisistheWayPod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠).

Disney Plus live action Star Wars shows have been on hiatus since Ahsoka wrapped and will be until 2024. Four shows await releases during the year. Andor's second season isn't one of them. There is a little bit of gamer news and some collectors items going on sale. There is no year in review because your This is the Way Podcast host has had an awful final quarter of the year. Here's hoping we're brought some Death Star plans. Help finish off the year with episode 148. It's not too long and we try to make even short ones worth your time. If you have questions or comments or have a Star Wars memory of the year you'd like to share, let us know and you can find out how by checking out our Linktree links (⁠⁠⁠⁠linktr.ee/ThisistheWayPod⁠⁠⁠⁠).

Star Wars was dealing with two strikes, but there's a new count now that Dave Filoni is in creative control at Lucasfilm. No, Kathleen Kennedy didn't get fired, but it does seem like having one person in control will be better than the story group that has been making Star Wars awful. Will Filoni make it great again? We have to wait and watch. Disney Plus Star Wars content is still on hiatus and news isn't great for gamers. Collectors are collecting thanks to the holiday season, which reminds us...do you have something you got and would like to share? Tag us in your pictures of gifts that you're giving or that you receive! We'd love to take a look at all the stuff we're not getting! This is the Way Podcast finally finished with Ahsoka, the series, and it looks like nothing but news for the forseeable future, especially after cutting off Disney Plus.

If you're looking for a host that will put a positive spin on any criticism of Ahsoka and overlook the awful plotting, bad writing, and focus on only the highlights, then you may want to skip this episode of This is the Way Podcast. Disney's purchase of LucasFilm has finally "broken" the host and as a day one Disney Plus subscriber, cancelling the service felt like defeat. Hey! Something in common with Sabine and Ahsoka in the show! Thrawn is no military genius. That's not what we saw. Sabine shouldn't have finally accessed the part of her that can sense the Force because that's not what we've been shown. Ahsoka didn't suddenly figure out what being a master is all about because you cannot somehow believe that it's okay to support someone in everything they do. That's insane. Well, maybe the World Between Worlds broke her. I'm not even sure that's where she was when she saw Anakin anymore, although, hey, he's not concerned with Luke and his grandson because he's hanging out in another galaxy. I swear, if Disney tries to tell us she starts a new faction of the Jedi and that's her "purpose" in this other galaxy...yikes. I better not hand them any ideas. Ahsoka's finale is filled with moves that don't make sense and majick that does make sense, but doesn't get used enough. Thrawn fails upward and Ezra gets a Force push from Mary Subine. It's best to stop now before getting upset. Holding out hope until the last minute turned out to disappoint. It's still not Obi-Wan Kenobi series bad, but it's not The Mandalorian or Andor, either. We skipped the feedback sent in for this episode, but there are plans for a feedback only episode.

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 hasn't finished with Ahsoka, the series, but hey, do we need to rush? The host has a new outlook on life after a major surgery in the family. Prayers always appreciated. What's your Star Wars costume of choice? We don't have one. Feel free to share yours!

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 were cliffhangers and you might have had to wait six months to see a thrilling conclusion. Six months? Now we wait years and get half finished plotlines instead of cliffhangers because the story teams haven't figured out how many years they can squeeze out of an idea. I sound a little bitter, right? It's hard not to be when you keep telling yourself that it will get better because it has to get better. Half the season is gone. There are still three episodes left. The penultimate episode is going to set up a great finale. The finale...stinks? Is Ahsoka heading for that valley of despair? The only answer figures to be a decisive victory for Thrawn, but what does that mean in a world we know Rey and Finn and Poe inherit? Are we supposed to keep asking for what's next when what they deliver is always a set up for the next thing and never commits to giving answers because there's something else they might want to mine commercially? Increasingly, it seems people who feared Disney would do what they're doing to Star Wars were right. Ahsoka isn't all bad and neither is episode seven. Hera stood trial, but she got bailed out of trouble by a gold protocol droid with a note. Ahsoka and Huyang continued on and were in danger! And then they weren't. Baylan sent Shin off to kill the heroes! But she failed. Thrawn set up a master plan! It was to stall. Oh, and Sabine STILL HASN'T TOLD EZRA THEY MIGHT NOT GET HOME. This is the Way Podcast is not going to stop covering Ahsoka an episode from the finish line, but potential can only carry you so far before you have to produce something special. This series has just one episode to pull out all the stops, but common sense says this is just set up for the next set up.

Is the strike over? Will we get new (Star Wars) series (on Disney Plus) soon? We may or may not, but Ahsoka is almost over and just last month we talked about how great the first couple episodes ended up being. With the advent of the 8 episode season that has pretty much become an industry standard, a lot needs to happen early or people won't even get past the first half. Strike news, Ahsoka news, video games, collectibles, and even a note about Star Tours getting an update. Slow month, September. At least we're in fall mode around here!

Ahsoka is back from "The World Between Worlds" and now "far, far away" in a brand new galaxy....that looks a lot like the old one we know so well. I don't think Lucasfilm and Disney were intending to start from scratch and introduce new concepts and yes, we've got new aliens and new planets, but as Baylan seems to say, Star Wars is a tale like our own history. It's going to repeat again, and again, and again... Far, Far Away is either giving us a lot to think about or tricking us into thinking we're going to get a lot more in the last two episodes. Will we end up seeing the show as a set up to a movie or will there be exciting events in the penultimate and final episodes? Nightsisters and Great Mothers...Night Troopers that might be zombies...bandits...Noti...THRAWN! EZRA! Oh, and poor Purrgil. They don't know what's awaiting them at the place they're going to die. This is the Way Podcast is once again proud to bring you snippets of Rebels, The Mandalorian, and oh yes, the NBC version of The Office. That's what I said.

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 got to not just remember, but re-experience the past with someone you miss, would you whine and complain about learning lessons right away? No wonder she got her nickname for being snippy. The World Between Worlds operates completely differently each time someone seems to visit, as does the way in and the way out. Who needs consistency when you have flashes of Vader? Star whales are at it again, taking long trips without ships...well, I guess one did, didn't it? Hera is in T-R-O-U-B-L-E with the New Republic Senate for no good reason. Huyang loves to stick it to Sabine every chance he gets when she's around, but when she's gone? Well, he sticks it to Jacen Syndulla, an ACTUAL Force sensitive Jedi candidate. This is the Way Podcast is proud to bring you snippets of Rebels, The Clone Wars, and oh yes, the NBC version of The Office. That's what I said.

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 bingo card, congratulations. It's not that odds weren't great that Dave Filoni would take his creation to another time and space...err, place, but animation doesn't always translate well to live action. I suppose we've already crossed that stream, haven't we? Ahsoka wins one fight and loses another because she burns her hand with a power-filled map. Sabine fights to a stalemate then gives up because she's too attached to Ezra. Shin Hati gets petty. Morgan Elsbeth succeeds in her quest. Hera and Carson Teva survive an "eye of Sion" maneuver in an episode that cribs a big line (used in trailers) from The Lord of the Rings. It turns out Hera didn't need a pirate. She does bring Jacen along for a dangerous journey and Chopper, well, he was made for that. Did Anakin "pull" an Ezra and pull Ahsoka to safety? Is he going to finish what he started on Malachor or does this manifestation even know about that yet. This is the Way Podcast's coverage continues today with a discussion about "Fallen Jedi" and whether that title references singular or plural somewhat dimmed luminous beings.

Ahsoka doesn't have to be serious to be a good show. I mean, the character sure has been acting serious and crossing her arms a lot, but Star Wars fans don't need everything to make perfect sense to enjoy it. It sure would help if the writing of the show was top level. What will be next for the show? That's hard to guess. Will Hera enlist a pirate or Maz Kanata since the Senate is so stingy? Will Ahsoka wipe out these "other" Jedi or will there be no finale to the fighting? Is discovering Thrawn the only endgame and where the last episode will leave us or is there a story brewing? Is all this a set up for Filoni's movie? Baylan remains the most interesting man in the galaxy and that's with masked Marrok in the picture. Huyang seems to have copied all the Jedi knowledge into some external hard drives. Oh, watch out for the star whales! This is the Way Podcast's coverage continues next week with Part IV, releasing again on a Tuesday night, but hey, first enjoy Part III, will ya?

Hurricane Idalia is out in the Gulf of Mexico, but the month ends this week, so it's news update time for us at This is the Way Podcast headquarters. There isn't much news, other than Ahsoka's first week, an Andor "easter egg" and Skeleton Crew operating with a skeleton crew in Hollywood. There's video game news and collectors have a couple notes and a certain Disney Plus show is promoting itself with a character at Galaxy's Edge (in California only, so far). We'll watch the weather, you listen to our news update. Deal?

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 the bad guys. They just want their friend back. Huyang is trying to preserve his circuitry while Chopper cares very little for collateral damage on Corellia. Baylan seems like the most interesting man in the galaxy and that's based on more than looks. Elsbeth dips her finger into witchcraft in the episode and Marrok shows off HIS lightsaber training. It certainly doesn't look anything like what he might have learned from Kanan. Maybe Thrawn? Then again, how would HE be able to get back, but Thrawn be in "exile" as Elsbeth puts it? The real problem (so far) continues to be Filoni's decision to make Sabine force sensitive at all. There is a way to do it and the way he chose to do it makes no sense based on every single character development she went through in Rebels. He has six more episodes to make it make sense. This is the Way Podcast's coverage continues with Part III, releasing Tuesday night, but a hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico might make the podcast discussion a bit later than usual.

Ahsoka feels like she's been around since the beginning even though her first appearance in Star Wars came this century and not a long time ago in a galaxy...oh you know. Since she became Anakin's padawan, she's been reviled and revisited as a Rebel and now, revered with a live action series of her own. It might be the most successful introduction to Star Wars canon since the prequels to the hearts of fans, at least of any character not named Grogu. The series premiere certainly isn't fan service, but neither does it leave long time Star Wars content watchers without nostalgic moments. If you know where to look, you'll find something from The Clone Wars or Rebels past. That's what this podcast aims to help uncover. This is the Way Podcast's coverage of the show won't be as wide reaching as it was for The Mandalorian, but the plan is to tackle each episode individually. That means Part II will be its own episode, even though it's already available to stream. If it's your first time here, please check out all our podcast episodes and like and subscribe to all available podcast outlets. It helps inspire the host to keep producing this content! Episodes of Ahsoka will air Tuesday nights. Hopefully, This is the Way Podcast's second podcast episode (on episode two) will come before episode three is available to stream, but no promises, okay?

This is the Way Podcast was developed specifically for the very first Disney Plus Star Wars show, but my, how it has grown. Three seasons of The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Andor, animated series, and monthly Star Wars news. Now, in August of 2023, we're getting another live action entry: Ahsoka. The character has grown on the fandom from a canon breaking annoyance to a well developed and well loved icon that fleshes out Anakin in a way we might not even have realized was needed. She's no Jedi, but she's also the best kind of mentor Luke could have after losing Obi-Wan and Yoda...and his father, to the Force. We only saw a snippet in The Book of Boba Fett, but it was the last time we saw Ahsoka in action, until her own show debuts on August 22nd. This is the Way Podcast's coverage of the show won't be as wide reaching as The Mandalorian, but the plan is to tackle each episode individually, even though the first two episodes stream together on premiere day. If it's your first time here, please check out all our podcast episodes and like and subscribe to all available podcast outlets. It helps! Episodes will air Tuesday nights instead of early Wednesday morning (or late or maybe super early if you're on the West coast). There will be one recap and discussion available by the weekend, and hopefully the second podcast episode (on episode two) will come before episode three is available to stream.
