Give Me Those Star Wars 41: Ahsoka

January 22, 2021

The apprentice lives! On this Give Me Those Star Wars, Ryan Daly welcomes back Stella, Chris Zegunis, and Angela Drew to discuss the fan-favorite character Ahsoka Tano. Created for STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS animated movie, Ahsoka rose to prominence as the protagonist of the subsequent animated series, and then appeared in STAR WARS REBELS. In 2020, Ahsoka made the leap to live action in the second season of THE MANDALORIAN played by actress Rosario Dawson. Daly and guests talk about Ahsoka’s history, why she seems to resonate with both new and old, jaded Star Wars fans, and where will her journey take her next.

Also on this episode, Angela interviews a fan of The Mandalorian who had never seen Ahsoka prior to this season to get a different perspective on the character’s introduction. That plus listener feedback from last episode.

Give Me Those Star Wars 34: The Disney Years Phase 1

March 06, 2020

Warning: explicit language!

After billions of dollars spent and earned to produce five new Star Wars movies in as many years, what has the era of Star Wars at Disney all been about? On this special episode of Give Me Those Star Wars, which is every bit the schizophrenic monster that the new film saga is, Ryan Daly recruits a daring and desperate team to review THE FORCE AWAKENS, ROGUE ONE, THE LAST JEDI, SOLO, and THE RISE OF SKYWALKER. The guests, including Neil Daly, Mike Gillis, David Ace Gutierrez, Andrew Leyland, and Jon and Maggie Schaefer-Hames probe the behind-the-scenes turmoil and turnover, the frothing rage of the Fandom Menace, the excitement of new stories and new characters, and the disappointment of squandered opportunities; and always, always wondering: seriously, Disney, what the **** happened?!!
