"The Sabered Hand" would have been an appropriate name for this episode rather than the foundling, as it's exactly what this episode will be remembered for, however it may have spoiled the surprise.. Kelleran Beq.. ahem Ahmed Best returns to Star Wars with his character first featured in Jedi Temple Challenge! We absolutely love Ahmed and remember him fondly as Jar Jar Binks.
The Bad Batch returns with an episode on track to set us up for an epic finale at Mount Tantiss and a redeemed Crosshair who is now doing what he can to save Omega.
YouTini is approaching the Round 4 level so let's look at the latest matches and see which books were chosen! What book are you rooting for?

Doctor Pershing returns to The Mandalorian, and we get a Star Tours style episode of Coursucant showing viewers almost more than we've ever seen before! The Bad Batch may have cut ties with Cid for good but we're not sure it did this weeks episode any favors. Will Bo Katan stick with Mando's creed, the children of the watch? Will Moff Gideon return? Was that Thrawns tie fighter squad that blew up Bo's castle?? Let's dive in and chat about it.
An update on the YouTini book MADNESS results!

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.
