Star Wars 7x7: A Daily Bite-Sized Dose of Star Wars Joy Star Wars 7x7

"Day" divides the first half of The Acolyte season one from a likely "Night" start to the second half. It's an in-betweener episode where we set up the chess pieces for the next big move, while sharing character developments, conflicts, and reversals. Our 7-takeaway show is here... Punch it!

In the last of seven episodes where I've been reflecting on my journey as a Star Wars podcaster over the last ten years, I'm considering the idea of whether we have been, and are still, living in a golden age of Star Wars storytelling. Punch it!

The old Expanded Universe covered tens of thousands of years of Star Wars history - and then got rebooted out of existence. Now, after ten years with the new canon, Star Wars storytelling has finally moved outside its previous 60-ish year window - and it's led to some of the most dynamic new storytelling in the franchise. Punch it!

I'm continuing to reflect on 10 years of Star Wars podcasting, this time considering the topic of family. Family - found family especially - has been at the heart of Star Wars, and has been an area where I could have done more, been more, and experienced more with fellow podcasters and fans over the years. Punch it!

Star Wars was largely a white cishet game in the OT era, and although some strides were made in the PT era, they weren't that significant. The ST era, on the other hand, has been leaps and bounds better, and although there's still a ways to go, the new voices, perspectives, and representation in Star Wars has been incredibly refreshing, and helped reinvigorate the franchise. Punch it!

I have a sense that the old Expanded Universe (now Legends) did a great job as a melting pot for all kinds of genre stories to be included under the umbrella of Star Wars. What I've discovered over 10 years of podcasting is that Lucasfilm seems to be doing a fantastic job in this new era as well. Punch it!
