Episode #32 - Rounding Off the Vanity Fair Coverage and Lego Set Leaks! Jun 04, 2017

Show notes

In this episode, Rachael and Kirsty round off their coverage of the Vanity Fair articles on The Last Jedi with some updates on the now-infamous #romancegate and #plotgate episodes. They then delve into a slightly spoiler-y discussion of some Lego set leaks before discussing an Entertainment Weekly article where John Boyega discusses the condition that Finn is in when we first return to him in The Last Jedi. Please note that there will be no episode next weekend, since Rachael should - fingers crossed - be on Skellig Michael then! Stay tuned for the next episode to hear all about it.

Episode #31 - Vanity Fair Updates for the 40th Anniversary May 25, 2017

Show notes

Rachael and Kirsty organise themselves to tackle the big issues to have arisen from the Vanity Fair coverage of The Last Jedi, from Kathleen Kennedy's comments on the future of the saga to Rian Johnson's puzzling insight into the romance (or lack thereof) in his film. Towards the close of the show we have a quick, impromptu discussion of the first three episodes of Twin Peaks Returns, glorying in the majesty of the return of extravagant surrealism to TV.

Episode #30 - A Deep Dive Into The Force Awakens Novelisation with the Knights of Rant! May 22, 2017

Show notes

In this episode, Kirsty, special guests CT and Solo (of Knights of Rant fame) and Rachael waste no time and get straight into an in-depth analysis of some key moments from the novelisation of Star Wars: The Force Awakens by the inimitable Alan Dean Foster - puzzle over the mysteries of the Whills with us! Gasp at our ability to talk about the compassion exchange for 15 minutes! Marvel at Rachael's inexplicable and borderline offensive attempts at accents! Once the novelisation discussion is wrapped up, we move on to spoilers, discussing the first set pics from the Han Solo movie and the latest Making Star Wars report on Luke’s props for The Last Jedi. We also indulge in some speculation on the final act of the film based on more tenuous rumours, so pull your tinfoil hats on for some wild and probably baseless theorising! (We had technical difficulties with the recording which meant the last five minutes or so were cut off, thus the weird ending to the episode.)

Towards the end of the show you'll hear the spoiler siren (1.33.30), which announces the beginning of a spoiler section filled with ship news and a brilliant listener question on the potential implications of Snoke's swag.
