2020 has been a crazy insane year. Let's face it, it sucked. But what didn't suck was all the cool Star Wars stuff we got from Disney / Lucasfilm! Dreams came true when Clone Wars season 7 launched and Bad Batch was announced. Mandalorian had it's second season, resistance came to a close with season 2 and we had multiple star wars VR video games launch as well! Between book launches and announcements and new content on Disney plus we ended up having a force filled year beyond that of any other! In a way. Although Celebration being cancelled was kind of a bummer. Let's chat with Josh and Blake in the escape pod for one last ride in 2020 before we head lightspeed into 2021.
2020, it's time to say goodbye. May the force be with you all!

SO. The Disney Investor Day happened... breath, breath, breathing, I keep telling myself. What a massive load of announced shows, but it's the most Star Wars that's been announced in one go since the 3 sequels and spin offs which happened. We got quite the wide array of projects to chat about and NOTHING is missed in this episode of the podcast. We listen to the coverage of Kathleen Kennedy announce the slated projects, have a chat about them and of course break down what some of these projects could hold. Let's dive right in!

We've been waiting a long time to see Boba Fett in some real on screen live action, action.. You know, without it ending in him diving head first into a sarlaac pit. Well this is the episode, brought to us by the director of "Spy Kids" and "Sharkboy and Lavagirl" comes a new episode of "The Mandalorian", chills all over this one! So much to chat about, Boba's heritage, Jango Fett, Mandalorian culture, Tython, Dark Troopers, you know what... let's just have you tune in to see where we go with all this. Joining us today is non other than Blake, Bryce, and returning to the Escape Pod is Calvin, one of the first voices you heard on the show last year! He just had to make his grand entrance back on the show.... Just like Boba!Stay tuned to the end for a special message and request of listener feedback regarding weekly shorter news episodes.

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.
