Episode 151: Meditation in Real Life and in Star Wars
This week we discuss meditation and it's amazing real life benefits (and how it makes us feel like Jedi). We touch on several forms of meditation, how you can get started if you've never done it before, and the amazing scientifically-backed evidence that it is good for your body and your brain. We also chat about how the Jedi and Sith use meditation to connect with the Force.

Episode 150: Wrapping up the series on "The Anakins" with the voice of Anakin Skywalker in The Clone Wars: Matt Lanter
What a great way to ring in our 150th episode! We have the pleasure of discussing the talented Matt Lanter and what he has brought to Star Wars' most pivotal character, Anakin Skywalker. He is the voice of Anakin throughout The Clone Wars and beyond, including Lego movies and an abundance of Star Wars video games, and much more. His vocal range is why we appreciate him so much; he's given Anakin Skywalker the depth and lore the character needed, and has done so incredibly graciously. Thank you, Matt Lanter, for bringing Anakin to life through animation!

Episode 149: The Anakins Part 2 - Hayden Christensen's Subtle Brilliance
This week we carry on with our series about the actors who have portrayed Anakin Skywalker. Hayden Christensen is a legend within the Star Wars fandom and in this episode we give credit where credit is due! His performance in the prequels, and his return to Anakin in shows like Ahsoka and the Kenobi Series, has given Hayden a chance to let his acting skills shine, and we are loving every second!!

Episode 148: Beginning our next series on "The Anakins": covering the actors who have portrayed Anakin Skywalker, beginning this week with Jake Lloyd
The first time we ever saw Anakin Skywalker in live action, outside of Darth Vader, was through Jake Lloyd's portrayal of Anakin as a young boy in "The Phantom Menace", which was released in 1999. This young boy, who will go on to become The Chosen One, was delivered by a bright and charismatic Jake Lloyd, who was only 8 years old when George Lucas cast him as the young Anakin. IMPORTANT NOTE: in this episode, we respectfully discuss Jake Lloyd's mental health journey, while also discussing how important mental health is in everyone's life. Please understand that we are not mental health experts, though we do want to emphasize the importance of mental health. We commend Jake for getting help to address his mental health, and wish him nothing but the best going forward. Thank you, Jake, for bringing Young Anakin to life in the Star Wars Universe!

Customer Reviews
FUN!
Found your podcast through James Arnold Taylor. What a fun conversation. Friendly, family friendly, and positive! Can’t wait to listen to more.
New Favorite Podcast???
Started by listening to the Hondo episode and… oh my god I’m obsessed! Currently binging through the rest, and I’m so excited to hear more! I hadn’t been able to find a good Star Wars podcast yet, but this is perfect. Great job!
Smart deep dives into SW AND getting to crush on the characters!
I came across this podcast after randomly seeing someone mention it in a pin group. I decided it would be fun, and I loved the title of this podcast. And I can’t hate on the cover art for it.
I immediately fell in love with this podcast and it is in my top 3 that I listen to religiously. The other two include a news-ish one called The Daily Zeitgeist and the other 420 Day Fiancé.
ATK feeds that need that I have to hear Star Wars talked about intelligently, with good humor, and touching antidotes. I’ve embraced the “To love Star Wars also means to embrace the pain of it.” This is obvious because we all love the characters, the work put into this franchise and the gift that keeps giving us more.
This podcast is charming, irreverent and loving. Overall, Lauren and LeAnn(e?) have so much love for the franchise and it really shows in the care that they put into it. It may take a tiny bit to learn the rhythm of the hosts, or Space Twins as they refer to themselves. They are a great example of not letting toxic aspects of the fandom to completely bog down a Star Wars lover.
Their positive nature is something we need more of in this world, and yes, this comes through so organically in each episode. They always give as much as they can to the podcast and I recommend it to anyone who wants to have fun thinking deeply about the franchise, the good and the *meh* but they don’t yuck other people’s yum. That’s not always easy to do.
The hosts work really hard not to have too many spoilers about even books and comics that are read! I admire that greatly.
And if you like to laugh, and crush on maybe Obi-Wan or Luke or whomever, there’s space for that too.
I also recommend their Patreon as they interact so well with their patrons. Frankly, on any of their socials are this way.
I recommend this podcast for anyone who loves Star Wars!
Thank you both, for such great work and really making sure that this podcast feels like a true conversation.
Also, I like the questions that are asked for the listeners to respond.
May The Force Be With You!!
