Rebel Force Radio: Star Wars Podcast (rebel force radio)

“Here we go again”, as Threepio once famously said.  Another rumored STAR WARS film is in the works, this one coming from Damon Lindelof and targeting a December 2025 release.  So naturally, we are skeptical. ANDOR is bringing us STAR WARS stories told without all the typical bells and whistles we expect. We discuss the pros and cons. Faverau and Filoni revealed some MANDALORIAN, AHSOKA, and SKELETON CREW  production updates to ET and we review the highlights, along with Hayden Christensen’s acceptance speech at the 2022 Saturn Awards. Plus, a new version of the NARKINA PRISON BLUES and more!

TALES OF THE JEDI attempts to fill in the gaps on the origin of two of the Galaxy's most important figures: Ahsoka Tano and the evil Count Dooku. We talk about all six episodes in season one and the RFR Switchboard was open for your calls and comments

Plus, listener feedback, food in the STAR WARS galaxy and more.
