Marvel Star Wars Explorers – Details, episodes & analysis

It's that time of year again, when your two best Star Friends set down their comic books and look towards the silver screen to talk movies, movies, MOVIES! As is tradition, Kev joins us for the usual countdown of our top ten movies of the previous year. Will YOUR favorite movie make the cut??? 

As our Gelfing heroes unite in the Dreamscape, Lauren reunites with us in the Pod(ling)scape, to get real with us about Deet, the realest of real ones, to further examine the strange role of Podlings in Thra, and to chat with us about all of our first concerts that we attended.

As Indy travels to Iran to investigate a tower or something, Sam's life falls apart as he struggles to pull together a broken episode. Plus, oh my god, Andor! Celebration! Richard Dunham!

As Leia and the Emperor chat about the future of her child, we chat with Cam Siemer about our pasts in the nineties, hear about Brian's present-day adventures at Disney's Avengers Campus and struggle to stay on topic as we repeatedly compare Dark Empire to the films of the sequel trilogy.

As Leia and Han flee Nar Shaddaa with Boba Fett and Dengar hot on their tail, we welcome new Star Friend Derek Lavender onto the show to have him share with us his deep knowledge of the old Expanded Universe, to reminisce on the cultural touchstone that was Batman Returns, and to hear his thoughts on The Bad Batch and the current state of the Star Wars world.

As Lando and Wedge attempt a daring rescue of the beleaguered Mon Calamari homeworld, we're rejoined by the daring Daniel Borders-Ashe to discuss some truly classic family movies of 1992, to hear Brian's thoughts on The Bad Batch and Sam's equally compelling thoughts on Star Wars: Biomes, and to discuss the Expanded Universe debut of the gritty underbelly of a Galaxy Far, Far Away.

Once again, your two best Star Friends are looking back on the previous year's films and discussing comic book movies, their biggest disappointments and what our overall favorite films were! In addition to that, we'll also be discussing some new(!) Golden Hoojib categories, looking back at The Falcon and The Winter Solider, tackling the latest Star News, and weighing in on this year's academy awards. It's a mega-size extravaganza and it wouldn't be complete without our de facto Golden Hoojib co-host, Kevin Young! We hope you enjoy and don't worry, we'll be back soon with more of the Dark Empire content you CRAVE.

The dead speak! Again! or... for the first time? As Luke Skywalker finds himself being transported to the dark center of the universe to confront a familiar nemesis, we find ourselves joined once again by best Star Friend Sean Davis to discuss Radio Flyer anecdotes, whether the return of Palpatine feels justified in Dark Empire or The Rise of Skywalker, and to dive deep into what it truly means to study the dark side of the force. 

As Han and Leia brave a warzone in search of Luke and Lando, we welcome Chris Lantz back to the podcast as we bravely explore the new territory that is Dark Horse Star Wars and kick off our coverage of Dark Empire! Along the way, we're also taking our first steps into the larger world that is the 90s, (baby) in Earth History, weighing in on Obi-Wan Kenobi casting announcements and Jaxxon action figure releases and, of course, giving our thoughts on the bold new direction of Star Wars in the medium of comics.

As the Star Warriors race to the edge of the galaxy for a dark encounter with the foul lady, Domina Tagge, Eric Ambler and Sean Davis return to the podcast to discuss all of their favorite moments from a fan-service filled gift of an issue, to look back on some very recent Earth History, to reflect on the entire original Marvel Star Wars run and to prepare for the next exciting phase of Marvel Star Wars Explorers.
