We all know and love A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. Heck, we’ve even debated which one deserves the title of “Best ‘Star Wars’ Movie” on this very show! But what if we’ve had it wrong this whole time?? There are some people (or one, at least) who think Return of the Jedi is the best of the series. We weigh its merits – because ultimately, even the “worst” of the original trilogy is still amazeballs. Amiright?!

Hello, fellow Herders! As some of you have pointed out, we had issues with playback for those streaming rather than downloading our episodes. We looked into the issue and decided to pull an Alderaan on our old media hosting. Our new host is as beautiful and secure as Hosnian Prime, so stream us all you like! We know we’re perfectly safe now.
Attack of the Clones is the worst Star Wars movie ever made! At least, that’s what many people would have you believe – but does it deserve such a bad rep?

It slices! It dices! It… flies?? Yep! We’ve got flying Inquisitors now, thanks to their handy-dandy roto-sabers. We’ve also got Sith temples, Maul’s re-emergence, Ahsoka’s final(?) fate, and a blinded Jedi. Betcha didn’t see that coming! Neither did Kanan. 😛
