Good Morning Alderaan – Details, episodes & analysis

We're shaking this up a bit with a more rounded idea to cover MORE nerd stuff and not just Star Wars... is that ok with you???

Ryan and Pat kick things off by discussing the Acolyte's cancellation. Seriously it's hard not to be a negative Nancy, but come on there Mickey, give us something to work with!

Link to the original Solo film concept: https://screenrant.com/solo-movie-changes-early-story-ideas/#:~:text=According%20to%20The%20Art%20of,film%2C%22%20the%20book%20notes.

The three amigos are back yet again for their take on not only the Bad Batch, but the Acolyte trailer.

We're also going to be chatting about EXPANDED nerd stuff too beyond Star Wars, so stay tuned in a future episode for more on those juicy deets!

We're officially old enough to do a "best of's" episode! Pat is lame and couldn't adhere to the recording schedule this week, so he cut together some "best of" moments from the 3 guests they've had so far, which can be found here:

HR is onto us now, but we make it work with some fancy censorship. The guys have some fun on a Sunday morning recording (hence why this episode is a few hours late, apologies!) and get down and dirty exploring the articles below, and really get into theory town about the Bad Batch and future Star Wars series, weaving quite the tapestry!

ADULT LANGUAGE WARNING - This was a PASSIONATE episode folks. Not only were we celebrating St. Patrick's Day together, but we decided to talk about all the things we don't like about Star Wars! It was a recipe for disaster right from the start and we must inform you that there is a TON more swearing than we usually like to air, and for that, we apologize and/or hope you enjoy the goofiness anyways.
