Laura does bad impressions/accents and Alyce is feeling a little icky but the show must go on!
Anyone else starting to feel like you’ve seen most of The Rise of Skywalker already with all these TV spots? To avoid a 6-hour podcast that covers all of them, hosts Alyce and Laura each pick* their favorite TV spot to discuss.
Maybe a Spoiler? Laura’s pick is a clip/trailer called “[REDACTED] Meets [REDACTED]” that was released on YouTube channel on 12/12/19. To avoid this discussion, skip 14:30-18:15
The Global Press Conference for TROS took place on Dec 4, but one of the more interesting movie details to come out of it was from the costume exhibit at the event. An image of the caption from Leia’s costume references the plot of TROS. Too spoilery for you? Skip 19:40-22:15
We talk vaguely about The Rise of Skywalker soundtrack details that leaked on Disney’s For Your Consideration/Awards site. Don’t panic - no spoiler warning needed here.
Did you hear that a prequel to Queen’s Shadow is in the works? You did? Us too! Yay books! Author E.K. Johnston is writing Queen’s Peril and it sounds like it’s basically going to be RuPaul’s Drag Race But On Naboo, and we are 100% here for it.
Who’s pumped for The Rise of Kylo Ren comic? We’re pumped for The Rise of Kylo Ren comic! We discuss the exclusive preview that was posted on starwars.com last week.
Recap Kneecap, begone with you! We’ve got a new segment name for our discussion on The Mandalorian (S1, eps 4-6) and Star Wars Resistance (S2, eps 8-10)!
We heard from so many friends this week! Voicemails from Maria (@blerdgirljedi) on Mando, Mike Harris on TROS anxiety, and Aris (@ArisInSF) joins Club Rebels. We also have a question from listener Tully about how to cope when the Star Wars fandom starts to lose its luster.
Finally, Force Toast took to the West Coast to battle it out in the trivia trenches of downtown Los Angeles. We take a break from our regular trivia segment to discuss/react to the Star Wars match that took place at the Schmoedown Spectacular IV. Check out the match on YouTube on 12/17! Schmoedown Spoilers abound!
