Ben and Cole move through the Star Wars Legends timeline as they see fit! There's assigned reading each week, and every episode covers that week's reading. Simple, right? There are plenty of Star Wars-related tangents along the way, so make sure to listen even if you haven't read!
Finally! Some of our questions are answered! But not all of them. Not even close. There are still so many questions. You cannot believe how many questions remain unanswered. Anyway. Read chapters 20-…
This week is OSW... After Dark. Meaning we're recording MUCH later than normal. I didn't get to go to sleep til like 1:30am. But anyway, we talked about the next segment of Survivor's Quest! Strange …
Continuing our journey through Survivor's Quest by Timothy Zahn, we open the episode dicussing some of the pros and cons of both Legends and Canon. It might come across as ragging on Canon a little h…
Yes, I know we just finished a Timothy Zahn book. But we're jumping forward about 20 years in the timeline, so this should be sufficiently different. How are Luke and Mara so perfect for each other? …
WE BACK. It feels like it's been forever, but it's only been like three weeks. Get off of our backs. We take an oddly deep dive on different edits/versions of A New Hope and the OT in general, Cole i…
Well, loyal listeners, it's here. The beginning is coming to an end. This week, we tackle the last few chapters of Heir to the Empire and look to the future. Does this book live up to the hype? We ce…
Well. This episode isn't two hours long, but it isn't too far off. Why are we so insistent on playing pretend in this wide and wonderful Star Wars universe? It makes these episodes go much longer tha…
This one is another doozy of an episode. But since Celebration happened, you KNOW we had to talk about that some. There was just no getting around it. Thankfully, however, we do discuss chapters 19-2…
Our review of Heir to the Empire chapters 13-18 might be our best balance of content and goofs yet. We've hit the golden ratio and will almost definitely never find it again. This week also features …
Does the name of Dooku's clone have two Us or three Os? Not important. Heir to the Empire chapters 7-12! Ben is sick and the first random article this week was just too topical to pass up.
This week'…
This episode is uhhhhh kind of a doozy. Like REALLY a doozy. We started talking about the Article From the Archives and then fell down multiple rabbit holes and then had to talk about HEIR TO THE EMP…
Cole read Children of the Jedi (spoilers for that book/the Callista trilogy ahead), so Ben takes that opportunity to Callista-jack the conversation. Like mommy-jacking, but with Callista. It's on-bra…
This week is the end of the MedStar duology, and we're all very sad. Fun fact: there are five distinct Jedi trials! Even the world's two biggest Star Wars fans can learn things from time to time.
Space peanut allergies. Also everybody is intoxicated. Big things are happening on Drongar. For next week, finish the book, nerds!
This week: droid classes, typo hunting, and and spy guessing. Also Medstar II: Jedi Healer chapters 17-24.
Ben needs a nap. Also: snow? On Drongar? It's more likely than you think.
We back! Trucking on through the MedStar duology and starting Jedi Healer this week! Chapters 1-8 as well as the short story "MedStar: Intermezzo." NPR voices ahead.

The Prequels had some rough dialogue, huh? Thankfully we don't actually talk about that very long. For next week, read chapters 1-8 of MedStar II: Jedi Healer by Michael Reaves and Steve Perry! But n…
Well children, the end is nigh. We reach the end of MedStar I: Battle Surgeons. Something happens to Bleyd. I'm not gonna say what.
Bleyd's gonna Bleyd! And it sucks. He sucks. Did you know he sucks? The penultimate episode on MedStar I: Battle Surgeons is here!
