Ahsoka Tano had a lasting impact on Star Wars since introduced to the beloved universe in 2008. It's no surprise that the debut of her own television series will likely chart a new course for the franchise for years to come.

"Somehow Asajj returned." Well, we think so. Fam, it's been a minute. We thought we'd get the band back together and fire this podcast back up. The Bad Batch is back, and so is one of our favorite Dathomirians. What better way to kick off a comeback. Hope you enjoy. 

Time to catch up with some thoughts on Tales of the Jedi and Andor. Oh, and thanks, Dooku, for being such a @#ck. But, also, you didn't deserve that. 

The first three episodes of the new series 'Andor' have dropped, and they did not disappoint, folks. We're getting sweaty talking about our favorite spy, and also looking forward for what's to come on the Disney+ 2023 slate. 

HELLO THERE! WE'RE BACK! Like, for real. It's been a moment since the Obi-Wan Kenobi series wrapped up, but we've got a lot to say about our old friend Ben. Welcome. Let's get sweaty again. 

We're back! Fam, thanks for being patient with us during our parental leave. With grandma watching the baby, we were able to podcast for the first time in four months! It's Celebration week, and the Obi-Wan hype is building. While we unfortunately can't make the convention this year, we're still thrilled to at least listen in on all of the panels and pretend like we're there. There's a lot to be excited about, especially the fact that we're getting the first TWO episodes of Obi-Wan Kenobi this week! It's a great time to be a fan!

Well, hello there. Haven't seen you in a while. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you? With the podcast on parental leave, Brent, Jory, and Wade got together to dust off the podcasting chops and chat about a Star War. Parental discretion is advised (I'm kidding, kind of). We'll be back tomorrow with our CELEBRATION ANTICIPATION episode. May the Force be with You!

Welcome to "Talking Star Wars with Brent & Michael". The Council has been lost to the dark side...

Zzzzzzzz...Oh, sorry. Just finished watching the Book of Boba Fett Teaser Trailer...I'm kidding...but seriously, guys...was this a little blah for a Boba teaser? Is it just me? I'm a bit underwhelmed with the tease, but I'm hopeful that this series will add some great story to the larger Star Wars galaxy.

Visions felt like a breath of fresh air for the franchise. These short stories offered a reimagination of the galaxy through new characters and stories that were unique, fun, and, often times, pretty dark. But it also honored the heart of what Star Wars truly is - a story of family, love, loss, friendship, and hope. We're eager to see more stories like this in the future. 

The Council is back, and boy do we have a lot to say about Star Wars Visions...

A fan favorite Star Wars game is getting a makeover! No, it's not Empire at War - because that game is perfect. Knights of the Old Republic and all of its glory will be remade, and fans are - well, excited...but also terrified. We'll see what in-house KOTOR crazy Luke Elder has to say about all of it. Also, in Darth Vader issue #14, we learn that a certain pale administrative aide may possess abilities that some consider to be...unnatural. Relax. Stay awhile. We're flying casual. 

Fam, Chopper Base took some damage, and we needed some time to recover. While away, a lot has happened in the world of Star Wars. Much to discuss, we have. Glad to see you, we are.

We never expected returning to Kamino to be so emotional. But, this latest episode of The Bad Batch has us feeling like we're saying goodbye to a beloved era in Star Wars.

Brent, Neddy, and Rob checked in to the Council this month, and and we very well could have made the greatest pitch for the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series...

With this weeks episode of The Bad Batch leaving us a bit disappointed, luckily, a War of the Bounty Hunters crossover event within our Darth Vader comic series brought us quite a few laughs and some shocking revelations. 

We're back, Fam! And we have a few episodes of The Bad Batch to discuss! It's been awesome revisiting some familiar faces recently, allowing us to better understand the hardships people are facing as the Empire tightens its grip on the galaxy. However, the choice of one particular character, Captain Howzer, has completely elevated the series. 

Some fresh perspective could be on the way with Disney's upcoming series, "The Acolyte". But not everyone is a fan. What's all the concern about? Plus, the last episode of "The Bad Batch" brought a pretty epic confrontation between gunslinger Cad Bane and the new BA in town, Fennec Shand. Were we also teased with some connections to the Sequel Trilogy and Uncle Snoke?

Guess who's back? Well, yes, Crosshair. But, no one expected the return of one of the galaxy's most dangerous Bounty Hunters in this past week's episode of The Bad Batch. We're catching up on the latest three episodes, so let's nerd out over a certain animated series for a while!

We're back with our bi-monthly book club, and this round we've picked up James Luceno's 2016 novel, Catalyst. As a prequel to the feature film Rogue One, this story does a great job of providing more context surrounding the burgeoning Empire and a better understanding of some of our favorite characters form the film. Hope you enjoy!

It's a bit late, but here's Casual Council No. 16 with our Patreon Jedi Knights and Masters! Enjoy!

Let's get Star Wars sweaty with our Patreon Jedi Knights and Masters! Here's Casual Council No. 17!

 What appeared on the surface to be a more lighthearted and fun episode of The Bad Batch, "Rampage" exposes the naivety of all of our heroes and foreshadows the upcoming moral dilemmas they're likely to face in these unpleasant corners of the galaxy. Also, is "Muchie" the Rancor from Return of The Jedi? No. But, maybe? Does it matter? The introduction to this young creature sparked an impromptu discussion of Star Wars storytelling, the effects of re-writing canon, and what it might mean for the future. 

Friends, we're catching up on episodes 3 & 4 of The Bad Batch, "Replacements" and "Cornered". A lot of love was shown for Rebels and Attack of The Clones in these episodes, and boy, have things gotten dark with the Empire's introduction of its new initiative! These were some great episodes!

This week, we're breaking down Episode 2 of The Bad Batch, "Cut and Run", and we're also checking out Darth Vader #11. Get ready for some monster on monster action...and some heartfelt moments.

Friends, enjoy this discussion of The Bad Batch Premiere from our YouTube livestream on May the 4th!   Watch all of our video podcasts on YouTube -https://www.youtube.com/c/FlyingCasual Join our community on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/flyingcasual

Friends, we're talking about one of our favorite series of all time, REBELS! It's difficult to break down your favorite moments in such a fantastic story, but we did our best. Enjoy us gushing about the joy this series has brought us and the high bar it's set for the future of Star Wars. WARNING: Chills are inevitable!

We're currently enjoying some R&R on the coast of Alabama, but the podcast must go on! Our book club recently read Beth Revis' novel Rebel Rising. "Jyn is also the most "real" character in Star Wars in that she's not inherently special," Beth said in and interview for her book. "She wasn't born with the ability to feel the Force, she's (for the most part) not surrounded by important characters, she's not a princess. She was never going to be a Jedi -- or a Sith. She's just a person. And despite that, she still fought and stood up for what was right and made a difference. That's a powerful thing. Of course we want to see the Jedis fight the Sith. But we also need to see the regular people stand up in the face of the Empire -- because that's us." We couldn't agree more, Beth. Let's dig into the tragic, yet hopeful story of Jyn Erso.  

The Zeffo, burning bushes, too much Qui-Gon hate..there's so much to discuss in this month's Casual Council. Come hang out with our Patreon Jedi Knights and Masters!

The past 48 hours have been amazing for Star Wars fans. A new trailer for The Bad Batch shares a little more insight into Clone Force 99's experience around the time of the new Empire. We're also introduced to a new character, Omega. Who is this individual and what will her role be in this adventure with our heroes? So. Many. Questions. Lucasfilm also released much of the cast for the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series, and Joel Edgerton and Bonnie Piesse are reprising their role as Owen and Beru Lars. How much involvement can we expect from them in the series? We turn to the comics to better understand what their interactions may be like with our dear Obi-Wan in this limited series. 

The Clone Wars has gifted us all with so many amazing moments. Too many to list, actually. But what are some of our most memorable? In this episode we're chatting about some of Clone Wars most impactful story arcs that have stuck with us over the years. But, before that, it's important to acknowledge that the The Caravan of Courage and The Battle for Endor are coming to Disney+! Fans of Ewoks and Teek rejoice!

Check out our 14th installment of Casual Council with our Patreon Jedi Knights and Masters! Head on over to our Patreon page and see if there's a tier right for you!

Speculation. It's an important part of the Star Wars fanbase. It's an important part of this show. Heck, we're going to speculate right now with a "What if Asajj Ventress returns from the dead" discussion. But, as we learned from Master Qui-Gon Jinn, be mindful of the future, "but not at the expense of the present moment." Speculation can be fun, and having expectations for a property you love can be great. But don’t get so wrapped up in the “what if” that you forget to live in the now and miss what is going on right in front of you.

The Bad Batch in May and potentially more Rian Johnson Star Wars?? Yes, please. An epic e-mail from Neddy prompts a lengthy discussion of Leia, balance, and the chosen one prophecy. Oh, and we might be starting a Lord of The Rings podcast (or an Ents-only broadcast of some sort). Join us!

Rae Carson's novelization for The Rise of Skywalker adds so much context to the film that closed out the Skywalker saga. This was a book that our readers really enjoyed, and we couldn't stop talking about it! Join us!

There's an important discussion to be had following Gina Carano's recent social media controversy. And the news of her termination at Lucasfilm has left Star Wars fans wondering, "What will happen to Cara Dune?" Also, Vader finds Exegol in his attempt to uncover the Emperor's secrets in Darth Vader (2020) #10!

With so many gamers in our Council, Lucasfilm's recent reveal of Lucasfilm Games has everyone very excited. What would we like to see added to Lucasfilm's rich catalog of gaming titles? For starters, a revamped Empire at War better be in the mix. We also dip into some classic "what if" speculation in the latter half of our discussion. What if Obi-Wan left the order for Satine? What if Anakin was sent to defeat Maul in the last season of Clone Wars? 

Could "Andor" really not include our beloved K-2S0? Well, not yet. Also, if "Obi-Wan Kenobi" does not cast Jason Isaacs for a live-action debut of the Grand Inquisitor, they're making a HUGE mistake. Let's talk some Star Wars news. 

Could Liam Neeson reprise his role as Qui-Gon Jinn in the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series? In this episode, we turn to some existing Star Wars material to speculate on what we could see from the returning Master and what sorts of conversations he and his former Apprentice may have while isolated on Tatooine. 

"We have hope. Hope that things can get better. And they will." - Hera Syndulla

This month, the Council convened to talk about the epic ending to The Mandalorian Season 2 and all of the upcoming Star Wars projects that we're most excited to see. 

Two childhood friends, now star-crossed lovers, find themselves on opposite ends of the war. Will they set aside their differences to come together, or will duty keep them apart. This novel from Claudia Gray has been a big hit with many readers of the Star Wars new canon era since it released in 2015. So what did the book club think?

The season (series?) finale of The Mandalorian has arrived, and the ending of what has been a crazy ride did not disappoint. Here's our live YouTube discussion of an emotional Chapter 16, "The Rescue".

Call us crazy, Fam, but this episode may have been one of the best of the series...let's talk about it! Here's our live discussion from Friday night on YouTube.

Folks, it's a lot of Star Wars, and we're here for it. Thursday's announcements at Disney's Investor Day 2020 left us all stunned. But, once we got over our speechlessness, we formulated some thoughts on what's to come. Hayden, Ahsoka, Patty Jenkins, ... !

Darth Vader (2020) #7 sees the dark Lord of The Sith at his lowest point. After being left for dead by the Emperor and hunted by an assassin, Vader stumbles across a creature whom fans thought would never see the light of day ...

The original bad boy bounty hunter is back (albeit with some substantial scarring due to a minor Sarlacc incident). If you weren't able to check out the livestream on YouTube this past Friday, here's our discussion of The Mandalorian Chapter 14, "The Tragedy".

The Council has gathered to discuss an important matter - the sweatiness of The Mandalorian Chapter 13! We're also welcoming our newest Council member, Scotty! Join us!

It's finally happened. Ahsoka Tano has made her live-action debut, and we have A LOT to say about it. If you couldn't make the livestream, here's our discussion of Chapter 13, "The Jedi", from this past Friday. Enjoy!

The Mandalorian just continues to get sweatier and sweatier. Check out our live YouTube discussion on Chapter 12, "The Siege".

Hands down one of the BEST episodes of The Mandalorian! Mon Cal wearing cable knits, live-action Bo-Katan, Ahsoka name drop...this episode had everything! Check out our live discussion of Chapter 11 "The Heiress" from this past Friday!

This past Friday night, we chatted about The Mandalorian Chapter 10 live on YouTube. What did we learn from this episode? THAT NO PLANET IS SAFE FROM SPIDERS IN THE STAR WARS UNIVERSE!

What a brutal issue! Vader has failed to turn his son to the dark side. Personal expeditions to find answers regarding his sons upbringing and Padme's death have left Sidious angry. In the eyes of his master, Vader has become weak. Only punishment could restore Vader's strength...

What a great conversation with the Council! We led off this month's meeting with a deep discussion on droids in Star Wars, their impact on younger generations of fans, and their overall importance to the franchise. We also spent some time sharing our expectations for the upcoming season of The Mandalorian. If we're following last season's playbook, episode one of this season could start off with a HUGE reveal. What could it be?

This month, the book club picked up the Revenge of the Sith novelization. It may be Legends, but this book adds so much depth to the ending of the prequel trilogy. It quickly became one of the group's favorites!

In this match, Nate and Wes go head-to-head in an all-Solo: A Star Wars Story trivia battle! Who ya got?

The Mandalorian Trailer, Rey Kenobi, Hayden Christensen in future Star Wars, The Child is actually Yoda...There's so much to discuss in this Council meeting, and not enough time to discuss it all. Like, literally. We're going to have to continue this discussion in our next session. Enjoy!

Fam, Star Wars comics have some of the best storytelling! The Star Wars 2020 main line and 2020 Darth Vader line have been killing it! We picked up Star Wars #6 and Darth Vader #5, and they did not disappoint. Vader is devastated by Padme's final moments, a tormented Grand Inquisitor is back from the dead, and our favorite farm boy finds a yellow lazersword, and boy does it looks good on him! Pick up these issues and have a listen!

It's not everyday that you sympathize with an Imperial, but that's exactly what happened after we checked out the stunningly beautiful Star Wars CG short Hunted. Needless to say, we're anxiously awaiting for the release of the upcoming game Star Wars: Squadrons this October. The highly anticipated trailer for The Mandalorian Season 2 has also arrived, and, as you would expect, it has us speculating like crazy. What's the chances of Mando and The Child running into Luke Skywalker or Yoda this season? Well, let's talk about it!

September's Happy Hour is upon us and we've picked up E.K. Johnston's 2016 Star Wars novel Ahsoka. If you're anything like us, you're still suffering from a post-Clone Wars hangover and missing the galaxy's most fierce Togruta. And that's ok! Just pick up a copy of this quick read and join us on some adventures with our favorite heroine.

In our 8th installment of Casual Council, we continue our vast discussion of the Force in Star Wars and add to our list of questions for George Lucas. What is Palpatine's involvement in the birth of Anakin Skywalker? What is balance? How are young force sensitives discovered? Send us an e-mail to [email protected], or leave us a voicemail at 614-398-2119.

We're taking a look at Darth Vader (2020) Issue #4, following the Dark Lord down his path of, what one would assume is, his eventual acceptance of the true cause of Padme's death. In his search for answers, Padme's former protectors seek vengeance for their Queen, and honor the memory of the young Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker.   We also checked out the latest excerpts released for the upcoming novel, Thrawn: Chaos Rising. While reading the stories of Thrawn's past will certainly be interesting, would Lucasfilm ever consider incorporating our beloved Ezra Bridger and The Portal into this Ascendancy trilogy to throw one heck of an epic, time-traveling curve ball?

The more we talk about the return of The Bad Batch, the more excited we get for their Disney+ series! And it sure sounds like Disney is going to capitalize off their very own "ninja turtles-like" heroes - minus the half shells. We also checked out the latest issue of the Star Wars main comic line, #5. A naive Luke is about to learn a dark lesson that his teachers glossed over in his training...

This month, we're discussing Dark Disciple, by Christie Golden. A little romance, a lot of dark side, awesome characters, this story has it all. A Star Wars fan favorite!

The 2020 Darth Vader comic line is finally back with issue #3! Vader continues to seek the truth behind the death of his beloved Padme. He's teamed up with an unexpected ally who wants the same answers, Padme's former handmaiden, Sabe. But Vader's anger and quest for vengeance may leave him vulnerable to those that master the art of deception. 

This month, we met with our Patreon Jedi Knights and Jedi Masters to discuss the Force, its past, present, and future in Star Wars. It's amazing how much you learn when you just sit down and have a conversation with friends. 

This may be one of our favorite episodes to date. If you haven't read Cavan Scott's short story "Time of Death" from the Star Wars: From A Certain Point of View anthology, do yourself a favor, and go check it out. We dig deep into Obi-Wan's final moments and the flashbacks and visions he experiences before his death. There is so much packed into this short story, and it could very well act as a blueprint for the upcoming Kenobi series on Disney+. Join us!

We'll soon discover Thrawn's origins in Timothy Zahn's Chaos Rising, and the recently released prologue for the upcoming book leads us to believe that the "recruit born of no title" may have something to prove to the Nine Ruling Families of the Chiss. Disney+'s recent addition of Solo also has us begging for standalone stories for Qi'ra and Enfys Nest, two characters whose experiences are unparalleled to Star Wars favorites. Join us!

In this episode, we're discussing the power of the Force and how such fantastic abilities manifest in the sequel trilogy. We also take a look at the first chapter of Charles Soule's upcoming High Republic novel, Light of the Jedi. Oh, and we're sharing our favorite Star Wars sausage quotes, compliments of the Casual Fam Facebook Group.

In this Council session with our Patreon Jedi Knights, we're discussing every Star Wars movie climax and where it ranks. We also welcome our newest Jedi Knight, Rob!

Star Wars has revealed details on some of its upcoming stories for The Empire Strikes Back's edition of "From A Certain Point of View", and we couldn't be more excited. Tales of Ugnaughts, Tauntauns, and Wampas may be pulling at our heart strings. We're also talking about dads in Star Wars, and, while they may not always be the best father figures, there's definitely something to learn from their experiences. Check it out!

In this installment of Casual Council, Patreon Masters Brent, Jory, and Nate join us to discuss 'Empire' and all of its glory, celebrating its 40th Anniversary. We're also chatting about Season 2 of The Mandalorian and what we expect from the hit series' return. Join us!

In our first Intergalactic League match of the Trivia Trials, we've got Brent facing off with Jory in some Rogue One trivia. You do not want to miss this!

It's amazing how powerful and relatable Star Wars stories can be. The Son of Dathomir comic line and the Mortis arc of The Clone Wars are no exception. Join us as we dig into these two stories and highlight how we all connect to their narratives of family, loss, and isolation.

This is the 4th installment of our monthly hangout cast, Casual Council. We had such and awesome time talking Star Wars with our friends Andy, Jory, and Nate. Check it out!

Star Wars Fam, in this episode we dig back into the new Darth Vader 2020 comic line with issue #2, finding Vader stunned when he's confronted by a character who bears a striking resemblance to his beloved Padme. We're also discussing Boba Fett's supposed return in The Mandalorian Season 2, are we excited by the news, and what could his role be. Finally, we admire Dave Filoni's take on Family, Hope, and why it makes Star Wars. Check it out!

Order 66 has hit, and there's a whole lot of emotion with this one. We dig deep into Ahsoka and Rex's relationship, some "what if" moments, Maul's admiration of Palpatine's plan, and so much more. Check it out!

Wow! Another epic installment in the final episodes of The Clone Wars! There is so much to dissect in this episode with Maul and his vision...Ahhh! It's so amazing! Check out our conversation!

Wow. What an epic beginning to what will likely be one of the greatest endings in all of Star Wars. "Old Friends Not Forgotten" was action packed, yet also brought a lot of emotion. It sets up what is sure to be an epic showdown between Ahsoka and Maul, and leaves you wanting more. Let's dig into it!

This week, we're breaking into the first installment of the new Darth Vader comic line. Just from the first issue, it seems another successful Vader series is on its way. We're also discussing the latest episode of Clone Wars, "Together Again". We would be honored if you would join us.

The "Kenobi" hype is kicking in, and we can't stop talking about what we hope to see in the upcoming series! We're also discussing the new Clone Wars episode, "Dangerous Debt", and the most recent drop in the Star Wars comic main line, #4. Take a listen!

This week, Project Luminous was finally revealed, and boy it didn't disappoint. We could not be more excited for this new era of Star Wars, The High Republic. What do we expect from these stories to come? We also learned this week that Palpatine was a clone in TROS. Are we surprised? We wrap up this week's cast with a discussion of our favorite Star Wars soundtracks, some of the finest music composed in recent history. Join us!

We're back after a week of moving, and boy does it feel good to be home! We're excited to discuss the first episode of the last season of The Clone Wars, "The Bad Batch".

Welcome to Casual Council! In this special podcast, we have our first monthly Star Wars roundtable discussion with the Casual Patreon Fam! Get to know Nate and Jory and join in on the chat!

Fam, we have meditated on this topic for some time, and we're finally ready to reveal our rankings of the Skywalker saga installments. It wasn't easy at all, but we did it. Uncertainty. Regret. Will these rankings stand in the coming months, or years? Only time will tell. How do our lists compare to yours?

Tor Valum, the supposed new villain of Collin Trevorrow's Episode 9 script. But was this spider creature the almost final big bad of the Star Wars saga? If this leak is real, we may have a whole new appreciation for Palpatine's return. 

Join us for Week 19 of Flying Casual! We continue to follow Ben Solo's fall to the dark side in The Rise of Kylo Ren #2. We're also discussing the leaked script for Collin Trevorrow's Episode 9. 

Marvel Comics is off to a really strong start with its 2020 main STAR WARS line, issue #1, The Destiny Path, Part 1. We enjoyed it so much, that it dominated the entire episode! This series has the opportunity to expand upon some of the greatest story elements that Star Wars has to offer, and we couldn't be more excited! Pick up your issue and join us!

Holy smokes! The Season One Finale of The Mandalorian was glorious! In this episode, we're talking about how rewarding Chapter 8, "Redemption" is for Star Wars fans and its potential to bring some fans even deeper into the lore. We're also continuing our ongoing discussion of The Rise of Skywalker. Did Rey need to be a Palpatine? Would the story have been better if she wasn't?

We're LIVE on YouTube and Flying Casual in our last discussion before the release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker! Here, we share our anticipation, predictions, and overall excitement for the film. We also have a deep discussion of issue #1 of the new Star Wars: The Rise of Kylo Ren comic book and it's implications for the final Skywalker installment! Did Ben know all along that Palpatine had returned and sacrificed himself to bring down evil? What happened when Luke confronted Snoke? Is Ben Solo the hero that we need? We will find out soon enough! May The Force Be With You!

Chapter 6 of The Mandalorian, "The Prisoner", had a heist story and horror elements all in one episode! What a ride! We're talking about what we enjoyed, and what we didn't enjoy, in the latest of the Mando's installments. We're also preparing ourselves for an upcoming all-out Episode 9 discussion with some chat about Rey and the possibility of her being a host for Palpatine's essence or a clone created by Palpatine. What seem to be the facts that lead us there? Would such a story cheapen Rey for the fans? We will find out soon!
