Send us Fan Mail As we count the days until we get new Star Wars we decided to pass the time with a wholesome old 80s classic. We discuss the film The Ice Pirates from director Stewart Raffill. As we find out, this film wasn’t quite as wholesome as we remember, as its riddled with sophomoric humor and cringeworthy dialogue and jokes. It’s not all bad though, there is also the endearing, and just plain outlandish moments. This tonally dissonant film is like Star Wars, but with more castration ...
Send a text And now for something completely different. As we prepare for Maul: Shadow Lord in a few weeks, we decided to go completely off script and talk about a comedy film that has no direct ties to Star Wars. That didn’t stop us from trying to link it however. This week we discuss the film Don Verdean from director Jared Hess! So join us for something a bit out of character. We manage to sneak some Star Wars in, and oh so much more. Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, ...
Send a text This week we continue with the new show segments as we introduce the Bradbury Effect where we let it all hang out. Anything is fair game and we’re not limited to just Star Wars, but we do focus a good deal on Star Wars as we get hyped for Maul: Shadow Lord! Also, who are we kidding the Bradbury Effect is pretty much every show, we are just trying to gimmick-ify it! Prepare for the Rock Genocide because OB-GYN Kenobi, Baron Putain and Beard Gravy are coming for your cake so they ca...
Send a text Star Wars has always had a never ending supply of cool monsters, mercenaries, and myths. So much so that we are making it into a regular segment! On our first edition we dive into some of the monsters that make Star Wars so unique, and we talk about our favorite mercenaries! Try to tame your inner Rancor while you go sort your inventory! Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join the wretched hive of scum and villainy as we take the low road to resistance on S...
Send a text What was supposed to be our first ever Monsters, Mercenaries, and Myths episode ended up being all about Monsters, Mercenaries, and Myths anyway! We break down the new trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu. There are plenty of deep cuts, easter eggs, and cool little homages in this 2 minute treasure trove. Excitement is high, now we just have to survive three more months! Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join the wretched hive of scum and villainy as we t...
Send a text Journey with us back in time to an era where film blurred the line between homage and plagiarism. A time when you just needed a few marquee names, a modest budget, and a lot of passion. We take a trip back to 1978 to revisit the cinematic oddity known as StarCrash. It is a journey, so buckle up and prepare to board the enemy ship by way of a golden penetrating phallus pod! Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join the wretched hive of scum and villainy as we ...
Send a text What classic sci-fi space opera was both an inspiration for and later inspired by Star Wars? Flash Gordon of course! This week we return with a discussion of what is likely to be one of the only properties to have contributed to the creation of George Lucas’ masterwork that would then go on to inspire a film version of Flash Gordon! We discuss the 1980 film with its warts, camp, Queen, horniness and all. It all rhymes, like poetry. Right, George? Beware of the dreaded VaJedi Mind ...
Send a text You know that accomplished feeling of waking up early and getting all the housework done before noon, leaving your day free to do whatever you want? Neither do we, but we attempt to simulate this feeling by making some progress on our format moving forward. At least until we get some more dang Star Wars to talk about! Bring plenty of packing tape, glue, and Goo Gone because you can’t tuck these! Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join the wretched hive of s...
Send a text The start of a new year should be filled with excitement and anticipation of what’s to come, but for Star Wars fans it feels we’re looking into a void of nothingness. Sure we have Mandalorian and Grogu coming in May but other than that we have no firm dates for any other Star Wars content. This presents a challenge for a Star Wars podcast. What is our path forward? That path could be found by journeying back into the past. At this point we’re just confusing ourselves so give it a ...
Send a text This week we find ourselves at a crossroad. To our left we see all that has come before. To our right we see all that will be. Which direction do we choose? Both, of course! We stare back into the abyss of 2025 with an eye towards 2026 as it relates to Star Wars. We also keep a healthy dose of skepticism while being trapped in a podcast centipede as we attempt to not put our gummy worms in each other’s gummy rings. Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join th...
Send a text It is an episode of lasts. We discuss the last episode of Season Three of Star Wars Visions with S3E9: Black. We also have our last episode of 2025. And it is our last episode ever… just kidding you aren’t that lucky. Yet. In addition we also talk about how we would prefer Star Wars to strike a balance between film and streaming. A word of advice - before listening to this episode make sure your edible is just kicking in and play some Avant Garde jazz music in the background. Turn...
Send a text Join us on a spiritual journey deep into the heart of the force where we come face to face with our greatest foe, ourselves. We continue with our coverage of Star Wars Visions as we discuss the penultimate episode of Season 3 with S3E8: The Bird of Paradise. We also talk about that old codger Dryden Vos Hogg vs. The Luke Boys, getting ingrained in the brain, and so much Les Moore. Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join the wretched hive of scum and villain...
Send a text What makes a compelling short Star Wars episode? We discuss this in detail as our coverage of Star Wars Visions rolls on as we discuss S3E7: The Smuggler. We also talk about some other shows we’ve been watching, argue about the best musicians from New York, and so much more. Or so much less because sometimes less is more. Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join the wretched hive of scum and villainy as we take the low road to resistance on Season Six, Episo...
Send a text The Star Wars Visions coverage continues as we discuss S3E6: The Lost Ones. I don’t know, we might be getting a little too old for this sh*t, or maybe we just had a hard time stretching it (do do doodoo) either way we do talk some Star Wars, discuss some other shows we’ve been watching, and invent a new platform called the Apple Piecast. Sounds delicious right? Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join the wretched hive of scum and villainy as we take the low...
Send a text We finally get to answer the age old question of what Steve Buscemi would sound like as a Star Wars character! This week we continue our coverage of Star Wars Visions as we discuss S3E5: Yuko’s Treasure. We also stop in to visit the Arkham Glory Hole, then take a detour to the bumper cars, side cars and side bars club and then flip on the black light to keep us honest. Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join the wretched hive of scum and villainy as we take...
Send a text We have a lot to be thankful for, but one of those things isn’t the dearth of live action Star Wars. We got spoiled for years and now we’re going through a dry spell. We’ll attempt to wash away our tears with another episode of Star Wars Visions as we discuss S3E4: The Bounty Hunters. We also attempt to come up with our own pitch for a Star Wars Visions episode. It turns out it had too much swash, not enough buckle. Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join t...
Send a text We continue on with our coverage of Star Wars Visions with S3E3: The Ninth Jedi: Child of Hope… eventually. You have to stick with us on this, we do discuss the episode, but not before having a super engaging conversation on creating art, being self aware, and being able to learn from failure. It’s not your typical Force Insensitive topic, but we hope its helpful for some nonetheless! Don’t worry though, we make up for lost time by discussing the Ballad of Paul Gilbert Gottfried, ...
Send a text Don’t look now but we’re discussing Star Wars for a second consecutive week! We continue with our coverage of Season 3 of Star Wars Visions as we discuss S3E2: The Song of Four Wings. This time, there is 100% more participation in discussing the episode! Before listening to this episode, go to your favorite drive thru and order up a Banthasaurus Burger with extra sauce and a side of Kawakian Monkey Gizzards! Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join the wretc...
Send a text It seems like it has been ages since we last spoke about a new Star Wars show. Too bad that doesn’t really happen on this episode. Half of us watched the first episode of Season Three of Star Wars: Visions and the other half didn’t. Any guesses what he watched instead? We also veer off into multiple derailments and discuss the future of this show and what form it might take! Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join the wretched hive of scum and villainy as w...
Send a text This week we wrap up our Sci-Fi Spooktober special event with one of the better remakes of the 1980s as we discuss The Blob from director Chuck Russell! This films bring up a greater discussion about the old methods of special FX vs. CGI and which we prefer. There are also some major revelations about some of the actors in this film that surprised us. Before listening, drop a hit of blobber acid, stimulate the B-spot, and don’t worry Shawnee Smith definitely won’t be listening to ...
