blivengo ,

A hot take on Star Wars.

This is a well-done show that doesn't follow the crowd in the best way possible. If you're a Star Wars fan, give it a try.

Mwooods ,

The best Star Wars pod there is

Growing up I was an avid Star Wars watcher, this is the best of the best.

Holy friends

Listening to Jason's voice tell me a story is something I did not know I needed. Having read some of his written Star Wars material in the past I was quite excited when I learn of his podcast. The mix of fantasy drama with theology is nothing new in the Star Wars universe, both canon and legends. But this is something new and different. Take a listen, the episodes are short, and you won't be disappointed.
