If you're unsure what Star Wars Legends is, we breakdown not only what that is compared to the canon, but also how the stories and timeline events differ. Notable stories can be found in each chronology as well as different names for the eras involved with those stories. 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. There's so many great star wars stories out there that need to be acknowledged and this felt like a great way to get into all that content in a compact format. Please help us out by lending a great review or by sharing this show with your friends online.

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.

Known to many from "Star Wars: The Clone Wars", "Star Wars: Rebels", E.K. Johnsons "Ahsoka" novel, and of course "The Mandalorian" as well as her voice cameo in "The Rise of Skywalker". This character has been on a roller coaster journey, from the start when star wars fans were not too sure about her, but today she is a fan favorite character and has worked her way into the hearts of millions. 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.
What Happened!? A new sub-series on the podcast.With each episode of What Happened you'll be listening to a full catch up and in-depth conversation about specific characters and their story threads woven into the star wars saga. Don't miss a beat as we include every appearance of them in the (canon) comics, novels, shows, and the films of course!
This is a non-profit show, however we do ask to help share us around via word of mouth and leaving a fantastic review to bring in more listeners. If you're itching to leave a donation though we ask that you do it here on World Vision and give the money you might donate to us to someone who needs it more.

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! If you're itching to leave a donation though we ask that you do it at World Vision and give the money you might donate to us to someone who needs it more. Hoping you guys continue to love tuning in to our show and help us grow our audience as well as spreading some light across the world by supporting people in need. Thanks again! And may the force be with you. - Josh

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.
