Ep 63: A Gushing Team of Dudes

OK, first things first.

Laura is not casually munching on food during this episode. She’s using cough drops and jolly ranchers to keep her throat nice and wet for talking.

Hee hee. Wet.

In Episode 63, hosts Alyce and Laura catch* up on month’s worth of news and discuss the newest episodes of The Bad Batch 

• An interesting new casting rumor about the Kenobi series? Honestly, what in the world is this show going to be about? And when will it be confirmed that Bail Organa will be in it?
• The Mandalorian Season 2 got ALL the Emmy nominations! You get an Emmy! You get an Emmy! And none for Gretchen Weiners, BYE!
• A new episode of Disney Gallery is coming in August so Star Wars can pat itself on the back for putting Luke Skywalker in The Mandalorian (eye roll here)
• ICYMI: Stunt performer Brendan Wayne discussed working on The Mandalorian on the Star Wars Sessions podcast and it was an amazing interview. Listen here on Spotify
• Leslye Headland talks to The Wrap about her fandom, The Phantom Menace and the unique perspective she’s bringing to Star Wars: The Acolyte.
• Our sources tell us that the upcoming Star Wars The High Republic audio drama, “Tempest Runner,” is all about Lorna Doone cookies. Wait, is that right? Yes? Hmmm. Put a kettle on, I guess.
• Alyce and The High Republic author Justina Ireland have similar Star Wars origin stories.
