Star Wars: Cantina Chronicles thestarwarsweekly

This week, we rejoice in Ben’s return to the pod and hear his takes on last week’s topics before diving into new content such as the ‘Star Wars: Outlaws’ story trailer. After discussing our hopes and wishes for the game, we move on to our review of the latest episode of Bad Batch. After debating the nature of midichlorians and the possibility of one of the Batch using the force before the show’s finale, we pass through the stormwall to review ‘Star Wars: The High Republic; Defy The Storm’ by Justina Ireland and Tessa Gratton. If you’re interested in the science/history of hyperspace travel or desire to see a Jedi Master’s privilege come into question, you won’t want to miss this book or our review! 

This week, Adam and Grant hold down the temple while Ben is away on Jedi business. They start things off by sharing their reactions to The Mandalorian and Grogu moving to a 2026 release date and what that could mean. They then dig into the new Tales of the Empire trailer and finally cap off the news portion of the show with their reactions to some exciting information about James Mangold's, Dawn of the Jedi. After covering all the latest stories from around the galaxy, Adam and Grant review episodes 10 and 11 of The Bad Batch and share their thoughts about two devastating episodes.  

 

This week on the Cantina Chronicles, the team enjoy some final beverages on their beachfront estate on Pabu as they breakdown both the Acolyte trailer and recent episodes of Bad Batch before packing their things and going into hiding from The Empire.

Rogue Squadron lives! We chat about the possibilities that come with a film about X-Wings and the daring pilots who fly them. We also discuss where a starfighter story could fit in the vast timeline of galactic conflict. After going rogue to discuss the revived project, we return to our standard coverage of Bad Batch (episodes 6 & 7). Tune in to hear Adam’s tantalizing theory about the identity of the mysterious Shadow Trooper. 
We end the podcast with a historic discussion of the Star Wars main run comics (issues 42 & 43); which tell the tale of how Luke came to choose his green crystal! 

This week, we regroup at the cantina with special guest and friend of the pod, Jason, to discuss the newly released Star Wars trading card game, Star Wars: Unlimited. After Jason outlines the basic gameplay and shares a few select cards with us, we dive into our review of episode 5 of Bad Batch, The Return. 
Fly Responsibly! 

This week, we gather in the cantina to discuss the first four episodes of Bad Batch season 3. If you’re curious about the mysteries of Mount Tantiss, Project Necromancer and Omega’s genetic m-count, you’ve found the right watering hole, because we discuss it all and what it all could mean for the story ahead.
