She's back! Ventress has been resurrected somehow, we dive deep into this episode of the bad batch. There's a lot to get into here, debating ressurecting characters, some deserve it and some don't. Those who have completed the Clone Wars journey and read Dark Disciple will know exactly how her fate wound up.. or do we?
Asajj Ventress was a whirlwind of rage and sorrow. Betrayal carved a cavern in her heart, leaving only a burning desire for revenge. Consumed by the dark side, she craved power, a twisted echo of the strength she yearned for as a Jedi Padawan. Yet, beneath the fury flickered a flicker of vulnerability. The sting of rejection by Dooku, the echo of her master's death, hinted at a complex soul trapped in a web of vengeance. There were moments, fleeting and fragile, where one could glimpse the warrior yearning for redemption, a warrior haunted by the ghosts of what could have been. And along came Quinlan Vos. The redeeming event in her life. It's unfortunate people could not see this story play out on screen, but I urge listeners out there to read through Dark Disciple. It's not only one of the greatest star wars stories told, clone wars episodes produced (in a novel), but it's one of the best endings for a character we ever saw.

Crosshair has been on quite the journey, this week he returns, not to his "old self" but to something more, a more scarred and redeemed life. This episode was a fast one but it was nice to dive deeper into the headspace of Crosshair and break down this episode of The Bad Batch. Join Josh, Kirk and Darian as we do this together!

The Final Season (first three episodes) of The Bad Batch has hit Disney plus! This week is our first after-show of a sub-series of aftershows hitting our podcast for the coming week until the season ends. We encourage all our listeners to watch the episodes on Disney beforehand and then tune into the after-show to hear our connections, breakdowns thoughts and more. Oh, and most importantly, the Pablo Points and Poodoo's! You'll see..We might have some other subjects on the pod coming your way too alongside Bad Batch reviews but expect the majority here on out until April will be very Bad Batch focused, so we hope you guys are with us on the journey to the final episode of the series which acts as a Legacy continuity to The Clone Wars.

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.
