Wet Weekend in Wolverhampton: Return of the Jedi, Jodie Turner-Smith, Blade Runner 204911 Oct 202401:20:47

Send us a text

Steff has been in the midlands with a creative crowd over the weekend, and Hutch has not. But what they have both done is go to see Return of the Jedi, and there's a couple of revelations that seeing it on the silver screen has imparted upon them.

Straying dangerously into serious territory for a moment, we then take some time to discuss the role and duty of production companies to their actors, when they come under social media attack.

Meanwhile, in 2nd Chance Cinema Club, we discuss Denis Villeneuve's 2017 follow up to a sci-fi classic, as we review Blade Runner 2049.

Steff's on holiday next week. Will Hutch put some solo content together, or just put his feet up? Check back soon and find out!

What Thermometers Do: Robert Watts, The Empire Strikes Back, Jupiter Ascending04 Oct 202400:55:43

Send us a text

The boys have been to the cinema to see that little known sequel to Star Wars this week. They loved it so much, they've decided to pick a load of holes in it.

Steff is currently between jobs, but luckily Hutch has a suggestion for a sure-fire Christmas present.

Meanwhile, in 2nd Chance Cinema Club, we dissect an ambitious sci-fi movie directed by the Wachowskis. No, not that one- sorry.

Stop the press! David has been to see Episode IV in the cinema for the very first time this week. So we discuss the big screen experience.

Meanwhile, Steff tells us about his time watching Blade Runner with a live orchestra, although his partner seemed to be expecting something different...

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, we dissect 2022's The Batman in almost as much time as it takes to watch the damn film.

Extra and Ordinary: Lego Star Wars Rebuild the Galaxy, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Ewan McGregor, Tom Jones20 Sep 202401:09:55

Send us a text

Ever wanted the skinny on how the Hollywood Walk of Fame works? No? Well tough, because you're getting it this week. Also, is Ewan McGregor cool?

We discuss the latest Star Wars content to hit Disney+, with the new animated series Lego Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy, available to stream now.

Meanwhile, the shock revelation that Steff isn't Wokingham's most famous son leads to an impromptu game of 20 questions as Hutch figures out just exactly who is.

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, we get around to discussing 2003's The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, which Steff clearly hates. Or does he? It's... not really clear.

The Circle is Now Complete: A Tribute to James Earl Jones13 Sep 202401:13:31

Send us a text

A very sad week for cinema and Star Wars fans in particular, as we mark the passing of acting titan James Earl Jones.

We are hurting, but we find some joy in celebrating a wonderful body of work and a voice which has evoked terror in Rebel scum (and a nascent Hutch) for over four and a half decades, with its terrifying honey.

The tribute is rounded off as we each select our top three Vader quotes and discuss their magnificence.

Rest in peace James.

Outlaws and Outlanders: New Star Wars Video Game Review06 Sep 202401:19:22

Send us a text

This week we welcome back special guest Bas van Dun to the show, to give us his thoughts on the newly released and long anticipated video game: Star Wars Outlaws.

Has it been worth the wait? Tune in to find out.

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, we review 2009's Jim Caviezel movie Outlander as selected by Hutch, and find out what Steff has lined up for us next week.

Don't Look Bantha Anger: Deadpool and Wolverine, Alien Romulus, Oasis, Johnny Mnemonic30 Aug 202401:10:16

Send us a text


Alright our kid? 

We finally review Deadpool and Wolverine in detail this week, as Hutch has managed to get himself to the cinema and watch it at last.

Meanwhile, Steff has already moved on and been to see Alien Romulus, so we get the lowdown on that, and hear why you should probably take a spare pair of pants with you...

A slower news week for Star Wars this time, but Hutch tells us why Disney are missing a trick with The Acolyte, and why they should employ him in their marketing department.

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, we review that groundbreaking 90's sci-fi flick starring Keanu Reeves. You know the one, where mankind has become a slave to technology and a rag tag group of underdogs fight the system? Final clue, it's based on works by William Gibson. Yes that's right, it's The Ma.... Johnny Mnemonic. Sorry.

Tune in next week where a special guest helps us review The Star Wars Outlaw game. Until then, Nerf Herders!

I've Been Waiting For You - Holidays, Borderlands and Star Wars updates23 Aug 202401:13:05

Send us a text

After a long summer break, the boys are back, recharged and raring to go.

There’s lots to catch up on, much of it Christopher Nolan related of course, as Hutch seems to theme his holidays around the man.

With all that travel, there's been ample time to consume media. We roundup the latest movies and series that have been entertaining us on trains and planes. Including Snowden, House of the Dragon and The Gentleman.

We also assess the swear count of Deadpool and Wolverine.

Unsurprisingly there’s also a ton of Star Wars news to get through too. So like an X-Wing from the swamps of Dagobah, we uncover the best bits for your listening pleasure.

Next week will see the return of our much celebrated 2nd Chance Cinema Club, so in this episode we find out what Steff’s choice will be.

The Acolyte Roundup: Which is the Best Star Wars Series?26 Jul 202401:11:42

Send us a text

So The Acolyte is now complete and we can finally review the series as a whole, without any further speculation or assumption.

Much like a spaghetti western, it's a case of The Yord, The Bazil and The Jecki. We talk about what worked for us, what definitely didn't, and what we would like to see from a second season.

Then it's rank o' clock, as we put together our own official and definitive list of Star Wars live action series, in order of best to worst. Where does The Acolyte feature?

AITSP is on hiatus for a few weeks now, whilst we spend some time with our families on much needed holidays. Join us again on 23rd August for a fresh relaunch of the galaxy's greatest Star Wars podcast.

Osha, it Mae well be The Acolyte Finale!19 Jul 202400:59:55

Send us a text


Only now at the end do you understand.

And so The Acolyte comes to an end and concludes with it's eighth and final episode, called...err, The Acolyte.

There's a couple of surprises to be had as the latest live action Star Wars series wraps up, so join us on a deep dive into all the twists and turns. Plus some explicit quotes from Snatch.

Next week we review the series as a whole, and welcome back the return of our favourite pastime on the show: Making lists and ranking things! You'd be a delusional laser brain to miss out.

Back to the Brendok, The Acolyte Episode 7: Choice12 Jul 202401:03:52

Send us a text

There’s not long now until we hopefully get the answers to the biggest mysteries of the summer: 

Who is Zippy Face? 

Will Osha turn to evil? 

Can England's men win a major football competition?

But for this week we examine the penultimate episode of The Acolyte and finally get some clarity on a few burning questions. There’s lots to dig into, but Steff is somehow fixated on Indara’s mole (and we are not talking about Bazil here).

Be sure to tune in next week, when we dissect the season finale and get one final chance to say things like “Called it early doors” and “Told you so”.

Send us a text

It's episode 70 of the galaxy's greatest podcast and we review episode 6 of the galaxy's latest Star Wars series.

We are at the business end of The Acolyte now and things are building up to a cracking finale, so we look at this week's offering in detail and start to think about the end of the series and beyond.

At this point we must pose a question to you: Have you ever heard the term "Erotic Jedi Passion Dreams" before? 

No? Then listen on...

The 'S' Word and The Acolyte, Episode 5: Night28 Jun 202401:00:29

Send us a text

Some social media backtracking required this week, as serious bombshells are dropped in the newest offering.

It's an action packed episode that needs lots of digging into. So we can't afford distractions like how much text messages used to cost, Queensbury Rules, and coining excellent new terms like "Slicey McDroid Pip Face"

We also discuss the state of parody in the wake of Mel Brooks' recent announcement, and last week's pilgrimage to an up and coming Star Wars location.

We are already halfway through the latest Disney+ offering and things are moving quickly in this newest of Star Wars series.

We dissect Episode 4 in detail with our usual panache and flair. It's gone down well, but it's not without its problems.

This episode was recorded live together in our friend's kitchen, so please enjoy the wider soundscape this week!

We are off to Spain for the weekend in search of Andor locations (as well as ham, cheese and beer). Adios!

Send us a text

We are now three eighths deep into the new Star Wars show and this week we review the most recent episode, as well as giving our thoughts on the series to date.

The rest of the internet seems to be split between either screaming in outrage at what we've seen, or welcoming new concepts to our beloved universe.

Which side will the AITSP boys come down on? Tune in to find out...

Next week the boys may be recording together in the same room again, to examine The Acolyte at its halfway point.

Execute Episode 66...

Live action Star Wars is back as The Acolyte is finally here! We deep dive into the first two episodes of the latest series to hit Disney+. Namely Episode 1: Lost/Found and Episode 2: Revenge/Justice.

The boys are their usual reserved, objective selves, very much keeping their opinions quiet and personal. You won't find any petty moans about droids, haircuts and Jedi toilet habits here!

We talk about what works and what doesn't, and give our predictions on what is yet to come. Next week we cover Episode 3.

Murder, Death, Killbots: The Acolyte, Kill Command, Fall Guy, The Bikeriders, Victor Wembanyama, Jurassic Park31 May 202401:01:21

Send us a text

The boys have been busy this week. Hutch had a soggy old time in a field and watched old Steven Seagal movies, whilst Steff killed zombies with his son and watched something questionable in a dark room full of strangers.

In the news we find out what NBA stars spend their first paychecks on, who we can expect to see acting with dinosaurs, and whether we will ever get to actually bloody watch Megalopolis.

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, we review 2016’s Kill Command and are pleasantly surprised with it. Sure it may just be Aliens with added killbots, but we find some good stuff to say regardless. 

Next week sees the release of new Star Wars live action series The Acolyte, kicking off with a two parter on 4th June. So we temporarily suspend our 2nd Chance Cinema Club for a few weeks, to concentrate on actually talking about Star Wars again.

Send us a text

It's been a quiet week for the boys, Steff endured rugby disappointment and Hutch watched an Adam Driver movie (£100 says you don't guess which one...) and that's about it!

Thankfully, in news there's lots to get excited about, with X-Men finally joining the Disney fold, and original Sci-Fi movies to look forward to.

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, we discuss 1987's Masters of the Universe. It may not be the nostalgia trip that Hutch was hoping for, but the boys have a lot of fun discussing nominative determinism and how Beast Man could have been your midwife.

The man best known as Baron Papanoida became an octogenarian this week and we lament how much more he accomplished in the first half of his life than we have in all of ours (YET).

In other news, Hutch tears up trees with his bare hands to save a few quid, whilst Steff is vaguely annoyed that Eric Clapton didn't play his favourite song. We also discuss the merits of modern black and white movies and spend too much time on how we was robbed at Eurovision!

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, we talk all about 2010's ostrich epic Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Will we survive two hours of Jake Gyllenhaal's mockney brown face??? Tune in to find out...

Happy Birthday George Lucas!

Steff has been intimidating school children this week. Hutch, thankfully has not.

The boys have suffered through The Phantom Menace though, in honour of its 25th anniversary and they also discuss The Acolyte preview and the first couple of episodes of Tales of the Empire.

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, the boys review 1997's Starship Troopers. Or rather, Hutch can't get a word in edgeways, whilst Steff gushes endlessly about it and tells us how everyone has got the film wrong all this time.

Fourth of May Be With You03 May 202401:13:07

Send us a text

It's Star Wars Day this week and the boys are celebrating by maybe, possibly going to see The Phantom Menace in the cinema (if they can be bothered).

In the news, we hear about some upcoming TV and movies, but we mainly focus on what we would do if we had Chris Hemsworth's body for a couple of weeks...

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, after willfully ignoring the call to watch The Tomorrow War last week, Steff remedies that and comes to a startling and potentially worrying revelation.

We will not be reviewing The Acolyte next week, as previously advertised, by virtue of it not being released for another month. Our pleas to Disney for early access have so far gone ignored, so we shall be talking about new animated series Tales of the Empire instead. 

May the Fourth Be With You!

Aliens to the Power of Three26 Apr 202401:01:27

Send us a text

It's episode 60 and Steff has finally watched an important piece of cinema this week, but sadly not the film he was supposed to see (sorry).

We have lots of news items to discuss, with several classic movies coming back into the cinema this summer. Meanwhile, Hutch fantasizes about Japanese Star Wars merch, and bizarrely calls out the dishonorable members of his Wordle WhatsApp group.

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, there is only one film to discuss this week (I said I was sorry, alright?), so we talk all about Alien3 and why they really should have guns in prison.

Star Wars day is next week, and we can't wait to tell you all about the many things we aren't doing for it. Also, Steff has to actually watch and talk about his film next time (Seriously, let it go Hutch!).

Send us a text

We revel in the 1950s this week, as Steff brings us up to date with his adventures in a gory wasteland and (somehow) a Shakespeare play. Otherwise, Hutch has done sod all!

In news, there's lots of video game chat. It's a Star Wars clean sweep at the BAFTAS; we discuss real vs virtual cleaning, and Steff tells us about his spamel. Elsewhere, there's an ashes update and Wolverine is either removing, or creating new arseholes for inconsiderate people (Hutch isn't sure which).

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, it's all about the lady robots this week, as Hutch talks us through a tricky bout of space robophilia in AI Rising, and Steff reviews inflatable chest parody movie Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines.

The boys have been busy this week doing all sorts. Hutch has been swanning about the West End watching grim plays about up north, whilst Steff has been living his best life at Reading Comic Con, The Bootleg Beatles and, errr… Maidenhead United.

There’s plenty going on news wise, with a shocking box office revelation, some video game updates and, for a change, Hutch fangirling over Christopher Nolan.

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, it turns out the boys have watched the same film with two different names, as Hutch reviews Bruce Willis putting his consciousness into a robot in Surrogates and Steff reviews Keanu Reeves putting his consciousness into a robot in Replicas.

New Star Wars alert!

Exciting news as a trailer dropped today for original animated series Tales of the Empire. So we talk all about that, along with a roundup of all the other sci-fi news that's fit to print.

We also hear about how Steff spent his Easter (clue: watching movies and eating chocolate), and how Hutch has an unlikely new favourite album.

In 2nd Chance Cinema Club, positivity gives way to caution as we are warned off intergalactic lorry story Space Truckers, and more unnecessary sequels of an Independence Day style.

Elsewhere, there's discussion on the latest movie trailers, way too much Star Trek chat, and why you shouldn't be worried if the boys tell you they've had a touch...

In Second Chance Cinema Club, Steff reviews Fassbender video game adaption Assassin's Creed, whilst Hutch ruminates on George Lucas' magnum opus, Howard the Duck.

Here at AITSP we like to think we provide much value to our faithful audience: In depth coverage of your favourite movies; the latest news from around the galaxy, and even recommendations on the arts.

This week our services are again called into action, as one of our listeners has bought a new TV, and wants us to let him know what he should be watching on it first.

So we tell him.

Meanwhile in Second Chance Cinema Club, Steff tells us why Hayden Christensen's Jumper was, and we  quote: "Decent" and Hutch lists all the earth animals he spotted in Ewok spinoff Caravan of Courage.

Next week we get off our nut on Spice and review Dune: Part Two!

12 whole months have passed since an alcohol fueled conversation sparked the launch of the galaxy's greatest podcast. Steff and Hutch replay some of their favorite, and not so favorite, moments from year one of Alone in the South Passage.

The Second Chance Cinema Club is a group activity this week with both of the boys watching the 2012 blockbuster John Carter. Will they be able to look beyond the movie's well publicized financial issues and give a positive review?

Meanwhile in Second Chance Cinema Club, Steff reviews Brad Pitt space flick Ad Astra, and Hutch finds it incredibly easy to say lots of really positive things about 80's Sci-Fi erotica Star Slammer.

Watching some of these films is playing merry hell with the algorithms on our streaming services, and our respective partners are starting to ask difficult questions about the suggested content, but we are dedicated to providing this valuable service to our listeners.

This week Hutch is knackered due to his all night American Hand Egg party, and Steff is numb from watching a space cat sleeping for two hours. 

But like the pros they are, the boys battle through their pancake induced food comas to deliver another slice of sci-fi goodness for you all.

Star Wars content is a little thin on the ground at the moment, so we have launched our Second Chance Cinema Club. In this episode the boys give positive reviews to cinematic masterpieces Final Recall and The Rise of Skywalker.

The sarcasm is strong with these two...

This week we hear all about how Steff's birthday went, including his original originals viewing marathon.

Hutch dazzles with his videogame knowledge, and tells us more about NFL recruitment than we ever wanted to know.

This episode sees the kick off of a brand new segment whereby the boys pick terrible movies for each other to watch each week, with the proviso that they have to deliver a positive review.

We also pay tribute to Carl Weathers, who very sadly passed away recently. This episode is dedicated to our own Greef Karga.

Episode 48 | Traitors and Creators02 Feb 202401:01:26

Send us a text

This week we dive into Gareth Edwards' new movie "The Creator".

Is it as good as Rogue One? No, clearly not. But we give it a damn good going over, nonetheless.

We also discuss the lengths people will go to get Doom running on more and more obscure hardware, and how Hutch is the latest victim to succumb to a viral TV show.

Episode 47 | Star Wars What If...?26 Jan 202400:59:34

Send us a text

We beat Disney to the punch this week by talking hypotheticals, in our own version of 'Star Wars What If...?'

Like bored Gods, Steff and Hutch pick two small changes each to make to the sacred timeline, and then discuss the possible ramifications of their meddling. Sliding doors and lovely little butterfly effects abound, as the enormous consequences play out for your amusement.

High brow concepts like destiny and fate are considered, but then discarded like a lightsaber that a stranger kindly returned to you on your island retreat.

But the bottom line is this: 
Lucasfilm need our boys' creative genius and they need it now.

Episode 46 | It's a Wrap!19 Jan 202401:02:27

Send us a text

It's the 4000th of January and the boys finally get around to doing their 2023 retrospective.

Was it a good year for Star Wars? Yes obviously, it's the year the galaxy's greatest sci-fi podcast started!

But apparently one or two other things happened as well. So we talk about them.

The term vintage is sometimes bandied about too often, but in this case we can definitely, possibly say, that it may, or may not be warranted. Perhaps.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We kick off 2024 in style, with a roundup of the latest and greatest news in the world of science fiction.

Steff takes us through the various Star Wars shows due to hit our TVs this year, and Hutch discusses the future projects going into production in 2024, including the hot off the press announcement of a brand new Star Wars movie: The Mandalorian & Grogu!

We also talk about pretender to the crown Rebel Moon, and why we can't stop ourselves from crying over CGI otters.

Episode 44 - Presents I've Not Felt Since31 Dec 202300:39:01

Beat the post holiday blues by tuning in to some end of year AITSP nonsense!

This week we discuss our Star Wars themed Christmas presents- the edible, the legible and the one that almost ruined a mum's birthday.

We also hear about Steff's visit to the Disney 100 Year Celebration in London and why we should all go immediately (hint: it involves golden dice).

Disclaimer: This episode was recorded with a live studio audience (IE: People who were in the kitchen at the same time as us) and therefore may contain more atmosphere (one of them had a hacking cough).

It's our bumper Christmas episode this week!

We are absolutely groaning with quality content for you, the boys have prepared loads of fantastic items, features, news, and reviews.

Or... (and bear with us here) it's just a punny take on the 12 Days of Christmas, arbitrarily changing the lyrics to Star Wars things.

But at least we don't sing. Do we? DO WE???

You are welcome.

Merry Christmas everyone!

PS- Steff apparently doesn't know the difference between Dustin Hoffman and Dennis Hopper.

Episode 42 - Don't Play Games With Me, Your Highness15 Dec 202301:17:39

Send us a text

Steff finally pulls his finger out and does his Star Wars video games episode! But we've drafted in some help...

This week we welcome special guest Bas van Dun to the show and grill him on the good, the bad, and the ugly of Star Wars interactive entertainment.

From the lows of Masters of Teras Kasi, to the highs of Knights of the Old Republic,
Bas guides us expertly through the past, present and future of pretending to be in our favourite movies.

We also discuss our own ideas for new games, but Hutch isn't too excited about Steff's pitch for the "Guy who pulls a lever" simulator.

Bas van Dun's excellent content can be found on @starwarsgames.site and @starwarspodcastnl

Episode 41 - That’s Not How The Force Works!08 Dec 202301:06:10

Send us a text

It's finally Sequel chat time on the AITSP podcast this week.

We discuss the treatment of force users new and old in Episodes VII, VIII and IX of our beloved franchise, as Luke, Rey and Kylo Ren go under our terrible microscope.

We talk about their treatment, their character arcs and their interactions with each other. Most importantly, what would we (in our infinite wisdom) have done differently?

There's also a roundup of the latest Marvel and Star Wars news in our universe, and Steff discusses how a deepset, long held belief of his has recently been shaken to its very core...

Episode 40 - The British Empire Strikes Back01 Dec 202301:18:23

Send us a text

Like Jerry Springer in space, this week we force Star Wars to take a DNA test to determine its parentage.

The topic this time comes from a listener's questions around how Star Wars is actually a British movie. Is this madness? Or is there merit to this argument? We do a slightly more than half assed attempt to answer this.

Meanwhile, there's a roundup of the latest news, an insight into the Disney HR process, and we find out why Hutch is the farmers market, Father Christmas version of Bane.

Send us a text

This week we discuss Steff's excursion to watch the A Disturbance in the Force documentary, and hear about all things Holiday Special. We also mention some upcoming trips to the Disney 100 year celebration, as well as a decidedly dodgy sounding Star Wars burlesque show...

We then get the Neuralyzers out and pick some movies and series to have erased from our tiny minds. Some in order to experience the joy all over again; some because they were just downright terrible, and one in particular that terrorised Steff so badly, he wants it permanently expunged from his memory.

It's Hutch's birthday this week and Steff has a surprise in store that's sure to raise a smile and a groan! Did someone say Jar Jar...?

We also discuss Anthony Daniels bravely rescuing props from a bonfire to sell at auction, and there's a roundup of the season 2 finale of the Loki series.

But it's not all joy and light, and to bring balance back to the farce we ruminate on the ageing experience; lamenting the death of the Galactic Starcruiser and why our wallets will thank us.

This week the boys are talking about shhhh....whisper it, The Holiday Special!

What is it? Where can I see it? What right does it have to exist? All these questions and no more will be answered in this episode.

We also talk about Deadpool 3's homage to Star Wars and how Finality of Dusk is pushing the boundaries for deaf movie goers.

Finally there's serious discussion of a reader's question on Force Dash, and a less serious discourse on which Star Wars weapon/X-Man we would both be.

The boys are back for a spooktacular special!

After a short hiatus last week, normal service has now been resumed. By which we mean the usual nonsense and ramblings that constitutes an AITSP episode.

Steff and Hutch discuss their holidays and how they tried to shoehorn in as much Star Wars stuff as they could. Quite easy at Disneyland as it turns out, not so much at the Berlin Lego Centre.

Being Halloween week, we also discuss our scariest Star Wars moments and the lengths Steff will go to for Trick or Treating.

There's also a roundup of the latest Loki episodes, tips on tricking your spouse, and the bizarre  case of the Donnie Yen typecasting...

A Special Guest joins us this week, as Mike from Prophecy Maker talks to us about all things Stormtrooper helmets!

As a prop maker and OG Star Wars fan, Mike tells us where his passion comes from and the incredible lengths he goes to for authenticity in his creations. We also find out about some of the one offs he's made and why he doesn't fear George Lucas.

Steff and Hutch also round up the latest on Loki (including its link to a curry house they used to eat in) and discuss next week's holiday plans.

The boys are taking a week off, so whilst you wait for them to get back, be sure to check out Mike's amazing creations on www.prophecymaker.com

Ahsoka is all over!  :-(

So this week we recap the series as a whole, discussing our highlights, lowlights and thoughts on what yet could be, if they ever make a second series that is.

Attention Mr. Filoni: Hutch has kindly thrown his hat in the ring for any potential recast opportunities...

We also put Ahsoka in its rightful place in the pantheon of live action Star Wars shows and discuss how we have been filling the Jedi shaped hole that it has left in our cold, black hearts.

As the Ahsoka series draws to an end, we recap the final episode, Part 8: The Jedi, The Witch and the Warlord.

Plot points are mostly tied up. Character arcs are mostly complete. The story is mostly resolved in a satisfactory manner.

Mostly.

Tune in next week when we examine the series as a whole and do our favourite thing, rank it in order of preference with the other live action Star Wars series.

Episode 32 - No Dreams and Plenty of Madness29 Sep 202300:57:23

Send us a text

We are at the tail end of the Ahsoka series now, with our recap of Part 7 - Dreams and Madness.

Like early 00's social media, Friends Reunited is the order of the day here, as well as round 2 of some tasty dust-ups.

But the tension really ratchets up when we are left wondering whether Thrawn will ever finish packing his endless crates of baked beans...

Join us as we clinically dissect the penultimate part of the series (if Steff can find a working pair of headphones...).
