– Nominations for the Star Wars Podcast Awards are open!
– As Kaitlin is new, we get her to introduce herself and run through her Star Wars history.
– The Han Solo solo movie has started filming — and we’ve got a new name for it. Han Solo Cup.
– Also, Billy Dee and Donald Glover have met. Can the universe handle that much awesome in one place?
– Rian Johnson shared a creepy song about a bone eating Jedi. Because Star Wars needed more cannibalism…
– Mark Hamill went on the record about disliking the way Jake Lloyd was treated because of the prequels.
– We’re fairly cut and dry about any hatred too: Not cool.
– What could possibly make Rogue One more awesome? How about an 8-bit version?
– Barnes and Noble have some exclusive posters as an incentive to buy the final Aftermath book from them.
– Josh Gad has been asking Daisy Ridley the questions we’ve all been thinking about. And Daisy? Not too impressed.
– Courtesy of Kristen Winters: We discuss Carrie Fisher as the face of the new political resistance against Donald Trump.
– It’s time for our Spotlight topic. And in honor of our new, Canadian host… it’s all about Hoth.
– Hoth is a pretty special planet, and saw quite a few firsts of the Star Wars franchise.
– We discuss Hoth as the location of the latest base for the rebellion.
– Luke used the Force to move an object for the first time. (We also remark on how his lightsaber was the only item to fall.)
– Also, Force Ghost Obi-Wan made his first appearance on the planet.
– We also got our first glimpse at a bacta tank — which would return in Rogue One.
– Oh, and Luke and Leia locked lips. Er. Yeah.
– Why did the Rebel Alliance never use their superweapon outside of Hoth?
– Of course, we can’t end the episode without talking about the Battle of Hoth.
– January’s Smugglers Bounty box featured an epic Hoth Han Solo on a Tauntaun.
