Rise of Glup Shitto

I am always so excited for new episodes! I love hearing behind the scenes details of movies, and this podcast delivers! Steph and Britt do such a great job of exploring how they make these characters at every level, from the puppets to obscure storytelling (canon and legends). It’s a must-listen for any Star Wars fan!

Lore podcasts are great, behind the scenes podcasts are great, goofy jokes are great. This podcast checks all the boxes. You can tell these hosts love Star Wars. I've enjoyed listening and learning about these odd little background characters and how they came to be.

I devoured these episodes, grinning like a child the whole way through. Steph and Britt are so fun and made me laugh countless times. I love their love for the weird wacky side characters of Star Wars and how we get not simply facts about obscure characters, but deep dives into the characters’ histories and speculation on where their mouths are, if they hatched from an egg or not, and whether the tea on the makers and performers of these characters is truly hot or not. I know that not all future episodes will feature creature characters with puppet performers, but I do absolutely love the depth of research these hosts went through to give us all the fascinating facts on puppet construction/performance and creature design! I am notoriously terrible at keeping up with podcasts, but this one is different. I cannot wait for the next episode!!

But seriously - Stephanie and Brittney are brilliantly witty and absolutely hilarious! This pod is worth listening to for every Star Wars fan. The hosts do their homework on characters you know and love but often overlook (and literally no one else talks about). They dive deep into the expanded lore, the mind of George Lucas, ILM puppeteers, and artists to bring you a jam packed party for your ears. Keep up the amazing art!!
