Stay Afraid, But Do It Anyway

It's the final episode of Season 2! We finally read The Last Jedi novelization. We really liked it, but this episode does include the most swearing of any we've recorded (so far--and censored, don't worry). Somehow Domhnall Gleeson is to blame. Show notes and more at starwarssleepover.com!

In the penultimate episode of Season 2, Loya and Europa share their favorite stories from From a Certain Point of View: The Empire Strikes Back, a collection published in celebration of the movie's 40th anniversary. Europa gets weird, Loya gets a little spicy, and we just have to mention Solo.  Show notes and more at starwarssleepover.com! 

Nostalgic candy commercials. Critical updates on Toys "R" Us. Mark Hamill being delightful. Embarrassing moments for Loya, the droids, and the whole cast of Sesame Street.

Licensed cosmetologist (and Europa's sister) Cirri returns to chat about Star Wars fashion and beauty-- this time, we focus on the prequels.

We're delving into the Doctor Aphra comics from the beginning, covering the Immortal Rur, Screaming Citadel, and Enormous Profit arcs.

Through Sabine Wren, Bo-Katan Kryze, and the Darksaber, we explore what it means to be a Mandalorian. Special shout out to the unsung heroes (Loya, that was the word you were looking for) and Kevin McKidd, who has the misfortune to play Dr. Owen Hunt on Grey's Anatomy. For Mandalore!

It's a light, fun episode! For real this time. We chat about LEGO Star Wars: Droid Tales and related topics including: Star Wars Weekends (RIP), discovering Star Wars via Angry Birds (with traumatizing results), and Yoda's skull. We also uncover several TROS plot points lurking in LEGO Star Wars. Intriguing...

We're back for Season 2--and we're talking Rogue One. This episode brought us Loya's expertise on Mon Calamari anatomy and a very accurate description of the Star Wars aesthetic as "grubbin' around with bits." And, what do dolphins have to do with Rogue One? The answer may surprise you. Show notes and references at starwarssleepover.com!
