Saturday May 15, 2021
Saturday May 15, 2021
The Bad Batch has premiered! Of course we look forward to the After-Show down the road with aftershow-host Diego (featured from our 40 part clone wars talk series). Until then, Blake and Josh have much to say on the weekly release of each bad batch episode going forward. Today we kick off with the premiere length Bad Batch MOVIE we had launch on May 4th. There was plenty to chat about today.
We also acknowledged Kanan's appearance as Caleb Dume (his real name) and the inconsistencies with the Kanan comic series, which was the original canon story that explained his origin. What other inconsistencies have happened from page to screen so far? We talked about those today too.
Also, stay tuned to the end for a special word and announcement regarding the podcast, rebels talk, the bad batch talk, and more from our Host to you, our special listeners. Thank you for tuning into our podcast and choosing Star Wars Escape Pod.

This SUPER sized episode contains an intermission in the middle to break it up into two sections. The first half covers Legends and the second half covers Canon.

Clone Wars v The Clone Wars | Comparing & Breakdown
Monday Mar 29, 2021
Monday Mar 29, 2021
Star Wars: Clone Wars (2003) by Genndy Tartakovsky, bridged the gap between Episode II and Episode III. It was prominently known as the only animated bridge between films at the time until we had the debut of Star Wars: The Clone Wars in 2008 which is known today as a 7 season show on Disney plus (almost 8 before cancellation in 2013). 2003's Clone Wars (also known as the micro-series) has been remembered fondly by many star wars fans around the globe and has also been greatly respected as a work of 2D art in the animation community. Today, we break down what that show provided for us as fans and how it bridged the gap at the time of release / telling stories of the clone wars before Revenge of the Sith was on screens. How does it compare to the cinematic style 3D animated show Star Wars: The Clone Wars which introduced the likes of Ahsoka and Rex into the canon in 2008 onwards. Let's get into it.

Start to finish we break down Ahsoka's story arcs and key moments through her life, going from being the apprentice to the Chosen One, to something even greater. Let's dive into the full story [so far] of Ahsoka Tano.

Taking place 200 years before Episode I, the second novel in the High Republic series targets towards junior readers but it's not to be underestimated, this is a GOOD STAR WARS story, if you have not read the book this is a spoiler style discussion for both A Test of Courage and Light of the Jedi (if you have not listened to our previous High Republic discussions).
THERE'S MORE: A line in the novel sparked questions about what the balance of the force really is, what it means, and how justice plays into all that as well as in the prequels with the desolation of the Jedi. In classic Star Wars Escape Pod fashion let's break this down and figure it out. What does the balance of the force mean to you? How did you like "Star Wars: A Test of Courage" by Justina IrelandContact us using methods at the bottom of the description and let us know!
This is a non-profit show, but we do ask to help share it via word of mouth and by leaving a fantastic review!

(1980) A speculation on "The Clone Wars" | Vintage Article Uncovered
Monday Feb 08, 2021
Monday Feb 08, 2021
A vintage article from a 1980's magazine from "Fantastic Films" has surfaced and we're gonna read through most of it and break it down a bit, what was it like to live in 1980 when The Clone Wars was such a mysterious thing? This article here (Fantastic Films Collectors Edition #20 - Dec 1980) was written by a star wars fan 40 years ago and his insight on what the future of star wars could bring. The article headlines as "Clone Wars Explained". Fan theories have long been part of being a star wars fan, and today we rewind the clocks to 1980 with this exclusive piece.

Star Wars: Squadrons | Game Review / Breakdown (Spoilers)
Monday Feb 01, 2021
Monday Feb 01, 2021
If you haven't played "Star Wars: Squadrons" we got Reid and Josh in the Escape Pod to chat all about this latest installment to the star wars games library. This game did get released a while ago and it's time to now dive right in and share all about what this game is like, from cross-play to what it's like flying in the cockpit of an X-Wing, even in virtual reality. This game not only let's you experience what it's like to be an ace for the Empire and the Rebel / New Republic fleet, but it's a fantastic story that takes you on a truly immersive ride behind the controls of your favorite ships in the star wars galaxy. Hear about the story plot points and details, and of course elements on the game itself, how it's played and the different modes it has to offer. This breakdown of Star Wars Squadrons is everything you need to know about it before you buy, and if you're not buying... Let's just tell you all about it anyways, after all - it's a Star Wars story!

About
In 2015 we had an idea to create a Star Wars podcast that felt both fun, informative and different than the existing podcasts available to audiences in the Star Wars fandom. In 2019 that idea was made a reality with the launch of our first Intro (since updated) and the debut of the logo.
What's our Escape Pod theme about?
Our logo and podcast title is based on the first shot ILM ever completed in 1976 on "Star Wars". The escape pod launching from the Tantive IV. It remains an iconic shot to this day. In late 2022 we vectorized and modernized our logo that was once essentially a screenshot (with some photoshop applied) and turned it into a recognizable essence of the original but something we can call our own.
