  Speaker 1: The Force will be with you always.

  Speaker 2: Hello and welcome back to another episode of Star Wars Alliance.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: My connection is so much better than it was last time.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: And of course I am here with Katie. Katie, how
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: you doing this week?
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: Is chaos.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: Ie, We have a sick baby.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: We lasted six weeks without her getting like sick sick. Oh.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: I think that's a new record for us since she's
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: been in daycare at least, so hence my background being chaos.
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: I have her in the afternoons because Matt and I
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: both work from home, so like we're still trying to
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: work and everything. But I was too lazy to clean, so.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: I totally get it. It's it's the one thing I
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: don't miss about Amberlin. Going to daycare was like every
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: other week was like a new thing. Yeah, but yeah,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: totally understand. Guys, we are this close for everybody on YouTube.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: You can see my fingers this close from not only
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: and or Season two, but Star Wars celebration as well.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: I've already seen Adrian taking really peaceful and awesome walks
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: around Japan. I'm super jealous he is there. Of course,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: he's already told us he's gonna give us the inside
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: scoops if anything, if anything pops up, we'll know about it,
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: hopefully before anybody else. But we also have a small
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: announcement in regards to and or season two. Guys, we
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: have been stressing out over this whole three episode drop.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Every single week we've.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: Had, ya know what, We're here for fun, We're not
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: here for stress.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, Like I so, I I feel like I
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: threw out the perfect gift when uh, when Chris dropped
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: the video of Tony Gilory Gilory, I I I thank
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: you for thinking about us. By the way, even if
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: it was miniscule. He even said, like so somebody asked
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: him about the three episode drops. He's like, oh, you know,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: it's it's great. It's like a movie every single week.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: You know, still doing the whole spiel on how you
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: pitch a show or a movie, you know, his job,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: which I totally understand. But then he immediately said, I
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: do feel bad for the podcasters though they are really part.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: They are really big part of the medium in the
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: conversation nowadays, consuming that much at so little time, I
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: know it's gonna be very frustrating and it's gonna be
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: a lot. So instead of me and Katie killing ourselves
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: trying to consume these three episodes in a very very
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: short amount of time.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Y'all, because I watched Just a Daredevil for the first
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: time live yesterday and I have thoughts I may see
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: if Travis will let me do a patron since that's
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: how I got my start here is Daredevil. Oh but
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: I was and am still exhausted, and I was like,
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I don't know how I'm going to do three episodes,
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: and then Joe reminds me, hey, just reschedule.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Yes, So Katie and I talked about it, with how
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: hectic our schedules are on a normal basis. Coincidentally, the
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: month of and Or is actually kind of chaotic for us,
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: just to you know, just coincidentally as well. So, guys,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: instead of having our live episodes on Wednesdays, we are
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: now going to have our live episodes on Saturday. We're
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: gonna have our live episodes Saturday. The review for and
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Or will be dropping on Sunday. But I believe Katie,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: we have already discussed there will be normal episodes coming
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: out on.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: The relatively speaking, relatively speaking, so like next week. So
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: for example, so on Thursday, now on April twenty fourth,
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: and instead of and OR episodes one through three review,
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: what you will instead get is our Star Wars celebration
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: rundown and then you will also be getting our Way
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: Secret review episode, which we are recording on Friday, so
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: that's what you can expect next week. So then on
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: the twenty seventh, you will get episodes one through three
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: of season two of and Or from us. So then
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: May first, there would not be a regular episode because
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: unfortunately we can't time these things right. But then like
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: May eighth or I'm sorry, so May fourth, you would
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: get and OR episodes four through six review, So no
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: episode on May first, episode May fourth, conveniently Star Wars Day,
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: May eighth you will get Tay of the Underworld review
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: because that comes out on what May four, So May eighth,
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: that is what you will get. May sixth is the
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: release of Way Secrets, so that our review will also
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: kind of be again promoted there. But May six is
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: also a Valued Vale release, so instead of that review
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: dropping on or, that review is going to drop May fifteenth,
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: so that you can still get a review there. And
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: I believe that takes us to the end because it's
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: the twenty second the twenty ninth, the sixth, So you
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: get regulars regularly scheduled Star Wars Alliance on three out
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: of the four weeks for and or the only one.
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: You will not get a Thursday episode of Star Wars
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: Alliance or will be being first. Does that makes sense?
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Guys?
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: I know you can't talk back to me, but.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: It also I just want to confirm. Also because again
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: this brain dump, I look at every other day and
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: I feel like the dates changed without knowing or maybe
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: And that's the thing, it's my brain playing tricks on
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: me the first time I look at it. What time
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: are we recording or what day are we recording way Seeker?
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Because I am we are recording it Friday, yes, okay.
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: Because it's supposed to come out on or the embargo
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: for way Seekers the twenty first.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: But see that's where I got it confused. I thought
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: we were doing our celebration and Wayseeker reviews at the
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: same time and then dropping it. No literally, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, okay, okay.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: So uh hey, by the way, I'm a little behind
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: on Wayseeker. Now I was ahead and now oh wait
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: I might still be ahead. What chapter are you on?
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: I'm on chapter thirteen.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Yes, okay, I can still finish before you. Okay, we're good,
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: We're good. We're good. Yeah, a little bit inside baseball there, guys.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: But I think that is it for scheduling news now. Yes,

• 9:29
  Speaker 3: title says featuring minock Manner. Ryan has been dealing with
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: technical issues, so we weren't sure if he was going
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: to be able to make it in here, but he's
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: joining for the main part of our show, as well
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: as like the news and stuff and Clay's final journey
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: with through on treason. Yeah, it's very curious to hear
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: your thoughts on this. By the way, Ryan should be
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: headed in shortly, he says.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Awesome, awesome, Oh here he is.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: He says, he got audio. I should probably add him
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: to the stage. That's important. Hello, Ryan, can you hear us?
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: All right, y'all, we're gonna hit our first ad break
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: and we will be right back in three two one.
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: Yes, I can hear you. It's a little fuzzy on
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: my end, so I'm very sorry about that. Thank you
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: for your patience and everything very good.
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: We just finished talking about our and or schedule, because
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: three episodes is a lot to try and do in
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: twenty four hours. Oh so, Ryan, welcome to the show.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: And know it's been a hot minute, but I'm so
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: glad you were able to join us.
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm really thankful that you just said reach out
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: and I'm super excited about being here today. So it
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: was a pleasure to be here. So thank you very much.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, awesome.
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: All right, So we are about to dive into news, guys.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: So the news that we have today is we are
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: talking about Star Wars Zero Company, and then the legacy
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: character news that Tony Gilroy has revealed. Those are like
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: our two kind of main news points. But Clay Ryan,
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: I need you to explain to me. Would zero turn
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: or strategy game? I don't understand what this means basically.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: So, uh, of course we had we had heard about this,
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: there being a possibility of a new game, a new
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: uh turn based tactical game. We had heard this was
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: going to be announced soon. Uh So that is no surprise.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: The surprise is what the title is. Uh, Star Wars
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: Zero Company. I think looks very very interesting. If you
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: want to know more about this game, there are leaks
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: of the actual footage. You'll probably see more of it
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: at celebration anyway, so I think we will actually get
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: to see some footage, but there are some leaks out
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: there already. This is in the same vein as recently.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: If anybody has played Marvel's Midnight Suns, it is a
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: turn based game as well. That one is really weird
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: because it's a turn base as well as a card game,
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: so it kind of does like this weird integration of
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: both types of systems, whereas this one from the leaks
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: that I have seen. It just looks like it's turn base.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: It's very tactical. I think these can be fun. It
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: really just depends on your type of genre. Do you
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: want something that's fast paced button mashing, you know, kind
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: of beat them up type of game, whereas with these
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: type of games, it makes you think you get to
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: sit there for a little bit decide what your next
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: move is gonna be. It is like a big chess
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: game sometimes, and as I'm getting older, I really do
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: appreciate these types of games.
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: So how does that work in a video game style?
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry this is probably the lack of video game village,
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: but I'm like, I don't understand what is what is
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: turn based?
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: I guess I feel like, did you ever play the
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: Mass Effect series?
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: No? Okay, my big video game experience ryan is Mario
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: Kart and Lego Star Wars.
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: Great choices though, great choices based. I think I kinda
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: there's a game, so the Mass Effect games, it's kind
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: of like a mixture where it's the RPG of everything,
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: but you're in combat and you kind of have like
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: time to select who your attack game and like you know,
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: who gets to go, and like if the other team
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: go and everything. So Okay, yeah, it's not really my
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: style or my type of game, but I'm curious to
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: see gameplay for sure.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Katie, I would recommend, like I said, in the
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: most recent titles that have come out within the last
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: like five years or so, I would look up gameplay
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: footage of Marvel's Midnight Suns and it sounds s U
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: N S.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: I know the video game title because we've talked about
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: it than the g UA chat.
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. There are there's your team on one
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: side and the enemy team on the other. Depending on
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: the type of character that you have h their play
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: set determines how they can move and how they can attack,
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: how far they can attack, and everything else. This will
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: help you strategize and build your team when going into
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: certain levels of the game. There's many different types of
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: games like this. If you look into the genre of tactics,
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: there's Final Fantasy Tactics, there's uh oh, there's a game
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: like called I think it's called Valkyrie Chronicles Tactics a
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: lot of those games and it is based off of
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: like per unit square movement type of thing, just like
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: a chess game or a checkers game, and the same
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: thing is done in midnight sense from what the photos
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: I have seen here, there is that kind of move
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: I believe. And then when seeing the attacks, you kind
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: of are able to preview the radius of attacks, whether
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: that be with blasters, lightsabers, grenades, whatever. This game is
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: going to allow us to use. It's it'll be very interesting.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: It might be your cup of tea. These games are
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: not like a hey, let's sit down for like a
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: quick fifteen to twenty minutes, go through a level and
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: then get out of it. It is going to be
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: something because it's tactical. It makes you think it may
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: be something that you have to block off like maybe
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: an hour for it and be like, Okay, you know,
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: I'm going to do this one level. Let's see how
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: quickly I can move through it. But how successful am
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: I going to be at that? You know type of thing? Yeah? So,
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: I uh, and it's usual. It usually wasn't my type
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: of game. I am very much the type of person
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: that used to be like the beat him up, the story,
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: the heavy story, really beautiful graphics type of games. Recently, though,
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: like I said, I have enjoyed more of the like cozy,
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: sit down and think type games. So I think this
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: one's gonna be a lot of fun.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's definitely interesting. I am disappointed with some of
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: the reactions to this game because a lot of people
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: are just going, like, based on the poster that we got,
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: which features looks like an foreign a member of plocoon species,
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: a couple of clones, a droid, and then a male
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: scoundrel looking character kind of looks like and Or On.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I thought it was at first too.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: And I'll like, some people have been like, oh, yay, no,
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: like girl Boss character in this game, like, come on,
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: that's dumb. So oh yeah, interested to see gameplay footage.
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: I guess well, we'll see how goes.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: The other bit of news.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: We have to really talk about is so uh obviously
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: and Or is in its round of press, and I'm
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: interested to hear your take on this. Ryan so Tony
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: Gilroy has confirmed that there is a Star Wars legacy
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: character in season two that has actually been recast. So
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: we know we're going to Yavin, we know we're right
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: before Rogue one and a New Hope, So there is
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: a lot of potential for this legacy character, for who
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: this legacy character could be because you've got Bail or Ghana,
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: you have several generals and everything, and Star Wars has
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: recast people. Genevieve O'Reilly took over the Mond Mothball role
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: in the prequels and now into Rogue one, and and
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: or Jimmy Smitz has stuck around. But then like, there's
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: just other places where Star Wars has chosen mused Deep
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: fix I e Luke Skawalker, Tarkan Lea. So how do
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: you guys feel about the recast here? Obviously I think
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: most of us are in favor of this, but who
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: do you think this character could be?
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: Uh, I'm curious if it's I want it to be
• 19:26
  Speaker 5: Bail organic because I just want to see more of
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: him interacting with the rebellion. Obviously, I'd love Jimmy Smith's
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: to be there. He's just the role. But otherwise I
• 19:38
  Speaker 5: feel like it's probably gonna be like General Dodonna or
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: whatever I think his name is. I feel it might
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: not be as big as Bail, but I'm definitely cool
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: with any recasting, you know, whatever helps him get the
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: character in the show, get some part of the world,
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: even if it means they don't look the same. Yeah,
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: I don't need a digital face over it.
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's actually if it is a minor character, not
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: like to say that like Bail's a minor character, but like,
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: do we like Wolf Laren, Like we didn't need like
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: an exact replica for what he looks like kind of thing,
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: so versus like Anakin Skywalker. Yeah, you want to get
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: a little closer Luke.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And that was that's what I was saying before
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: we actually went live, is like, and I don't want
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: to sound insensitive, I said, as long as they're not
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: an important character, quote unquote, And it sucks that we've
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: kind of gotten to this point, but like, I feel
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: like the fans have really determined what important is. So
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: I guess we really won't know if it's a good
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: choice until we either see the backlash or the lack
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: thereof of this recap, because I could very much see
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: the timeline of seeing the recast and the majority of
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: people being like, wait, who was that supposed to be again,
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: and them not necessarily knowing that first cast mate. Which
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: doesn't mean that it's not important to the story of
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: Star Wars, but it's not a revolving character, you know, right.
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: Like my point with Jimmy is. Jimmy was recently in
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: Obi Wan, so I'd like to see him kind of
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: stick around because recently Bail Organa has been Jimmy Smiths,
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: so I would want to see that continuity there. And
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: I feel like Jimmy has should have known at this
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: point that he needs to be in and or season two.
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: But again, scheduling, we've had strikes, we've had COVID like,
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: scheduling just sometimes doesn't work out. So at the end
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: of the day, if he doesn't make it in and
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: they recast, I will be okay with it, even though
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: like it is, he's the face, like he's iconic.
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: Jeez, yeah, I agree with that.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Yeah, we're gonna go into our second ad break
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: and we'll be right back.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: Well, I think that we could very easily just skim
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: through it. But the entire thing today was that Mikey Madison,
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: currently most well known from Oh Shoot Wellnora Anora was
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: the most recent movie, was being eyed to start in
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: Sean Levy Star Wars film alongside Ryan gosm and then
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: literally what like an hour ago, I think we got
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: an actual update to this saying that Madison actually turned
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: down the role and The reason why I still wanted
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: to bring this up was this kind of gives us
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: a little sneak peek into what quote unquote type of
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: character or actress they are really looking for to start
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: alongside Ryan Gosling. I had told the Guchat that the
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: only thing I know about Honora is that it was
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: a very controversial movie. Apparently it's not something that I
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: have seen. But as far as her acting ability and
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: things like that, I don't have any prior experience to
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: any of Mikey Madison's filmography. So as far as I
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: can see that, I could literally see the type of
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: actress and be like, Okay, they're trying to look for
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: this type of character.
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: But yeah, that's a good point. I feel like if
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: they're trying to go for that big of a name
• 24:08
  Speaker 5: to go alongside of him, like even if she passes,
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: I feel like whoever they could consider next might be similar,
• 24:16
  Speaker 5: you know, like up and coming or you know, kind
• 24:20
  Speaker 5: of like the hot after actress to get so mm hmm.
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it'll be interesting to see because the only thing
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: I would know her from is Once upon a Time
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: in Hollywood, which.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: I oh, okay, yeah, one movie.
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't like, and I wouldn't be able to
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: tell you who she played because I also didn't like,
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: Once upon a time in.
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: Hollywood, she was the.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: Girl that Brad Pitt threw the can of beans at.
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, I remember that moment. I can't put a
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: face to it, obviously have her face in front of me,
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: but it's like, I don't.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: Know, and I'm pretty sure she ran into the pool
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: and got flamethrower. I think that was her.
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, yep, that's more familiar slap thrower. Yeah, you know, yeah,
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: it'll be interesting to see. I feel like they would
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: like a more prominent, younger gen Z name involved, just
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: to try and get.
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: Sidney Sweeney boom ah, dude.
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: I don't know if Sidney would even say, like consider it,
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: like Mikey may have considered it.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Well, because here's here's the thing. There are rumors that
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: Sidney Sweeney is going to start in a live action
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: Gundam movie, which is uh, yeah, I don't know if
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: you know what Gundaman. It is a anime huge mex
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: think of Pacific Rim, but the robots fight each other.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: There's militaries that use Gundoms for like space battles and
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: all sorts of stuff. Yeah, but there's rumors of Sydney
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: being attached to that film in some capacity, and I'm like, hey,
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: if she could be in a Gundam movie, she can
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: very much be in a Star Wars movie.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah I could. Yeah, that's very true, very true. All right,
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: So shall we delve into our main topic tonight? Boys?
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: I think so all right, y'all.
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: So I came up with this after seeing The Way Seekers.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: Clay was so proud of me for coming up with
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: an original podcast. I feel it is not like original
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: but like non review or news topic based one. So
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: The Way Seekers did a lightsaber bracket in honor of
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: March Madness, So the inspiration comes from here. But I
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: figured we could have a high Republic character battle bracket.
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: So Clay has marked us up a very nice diagram
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: right here, bracket. Yeah, he did so good, and he's
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: got all the concept art down. Pat like, very impressed that, like,
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: you got all this done. But I am taking from
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: the character encyclopedia, which is does not have all of
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: the characters, but has most of the characters, and this
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: is what I used to kind of build my list.
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: But our job here today, guys, is This is gonna
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: be a two parter where Star Wars Alliance is gonna
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: go versus Minock Manner and we're gonna have a moderator
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: come in for a second battle or for the second
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: part of the episode where we actually go through the
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: bracket and come up with a winner for our High
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: Republic character like MVP. Basically, so the rules of the
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: game is, each team gets eight characters, and this episode
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: we're just drafting. Chris was not able to join us
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: for this one, but hopefully he will be able to
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: join us on the second part of this series. But
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: each team, Siria, I am not talking to you, sorry,
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: but each team gets eight characters, and basically after this
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: is just we're drafting our sides of the bracket, and
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: then we'll be able to go through and babeled basically
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: rank each of our teams and uh, then we'll kind
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: of do the matchups as everything goes kind of thing,
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: and yeah, that's kind of the theme. The moderator in
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: the next episode will basically decide who wins each battle,
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: those characters will move on. Everybody knows what a bracket is,
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: even if you don't like basketball, like I don't, I
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: don't know. I thought this was a cool idea and
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: it's thanks Ryan, but it's been done on Twitter like
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: people do, like the polls and everything kind of thing,
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: so definitely not like a true original idea, but I'm
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: excited to kind of see how this goes. So we
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: each brought twelve characters, so this is gonna take a second,
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: but we're based going to bring up a random number
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: or random coin flip to decide who goes first, because
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: we cannot have the same characters on each team.
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: So this is true.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: Yes, we have a list of twenty four characters. Ryan,
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: do you have yours like in a way you could
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: send it to us so Clay can like present it.
• 30:25
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, sure I will be able to do that.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: Let's here, And.
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: I asked you if you had yours written down, and
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: I realized I don't have mine rand down. So all right, Clay,
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: you have six and I have six?
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: Okay, almost, so please.
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: Hold's gonna Clay's gonna edit this very nicely in podcast format.
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: But if you're here on YouTube, here's the.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: Magic and we're about to jump into our third ad.

• 32:21
  Speaker 2: why I've made the graphics, so that way we can
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: do it one by one each time.
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: Yes, all right, so Clay, you pick first.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'm going to pick, and he's already up here.

  Speaker 2: He has been a little bit of a cornerstone of
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: my like love for the High Republic, and I think
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: my love for him grew exponentially even on this last book,
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: for sure, So I think he's good to have on
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: our team.
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: Not jealous whatsoever.
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: We all three had him on our list. Okay, guys, yes,

• 33:41
  Speaker 3: We're on the same team.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: Oh that's right, that's right. Yeah. I was gonna have
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: you do the corn flip. But yeah, I guess that.
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I just figured we'd go down the list. Lake.
• 33:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, I'm gonna go with Keeve Trevis Kieve.
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: All right, man, do I have keiv here? Hold on?
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: Hold on?
• 34:03
  Speaker 5: Speaking of Cornerstone, definitely, her story to the comics has
• 34:07
  Speaker 5: been my like biggest focus. I feel like, so absolutely
• 34:13
  Speaker 5: there she is.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: We'll go Keiev. Oh well, hold on, wrong spin it.
• 34:22
  Speaker 5: Waiting to see how she gets lost?
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: Yep, for sure, I'm presenting your screen.
• 34:28
  Speaker 5: I hope that's okay.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: O Clay, Yay, you're fine. I thought I clicked it.
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Okay, you had to hit like share but
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: not present. All right. So I'm gonna pick the one
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: that I put on the list. I'm gonna pick the
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: Leveler because I think this is kind of like the nameless,
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: kind of like in general, but I feel like the
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: Leveler is like kind of the key character, especially after
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: what we got in Aedge of Balance Premonition, which Clay,
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: you still haven't read.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: Right, Uh no, but I ordered it today, So.
• 35:11
  Speaker 5: Ryan, have you ready yet the Premonition one? Yeah, I
• 35:16
  Speaker 5: am actually in the middle of reading it today.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: So okay, Sorry that was a big spoiler. I'm sorry.
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: I told Clay kind of that already. But yes, I'm
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: picking the Leveler as our next member.
• 35:32
  Speaker 5: I really liked that idea because, yeah, I think they've
• 35:35
  Speaker 5: been misunderstood, so it'll be interesting see how this all
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: wraps up.
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: Mm hmmm.
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: Let's see here. Let me grab that character here and
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: then have him right there. All right, now, is it
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: my turn or no? I guess it would be Ryan's
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: turn again?
• 36:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, yeah, I'm gonna have to go with Solandra showhow.
• 36:29
  Speaker 5: My shield?
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: Yes, were you so happy that Brief got her shield?
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: We were ecstatic?
• 36:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah. I feel like if anyone who deserved it fit
• 36:44
  Speaker 5: the bill.
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I thought that was really really cool, Ruper
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: would have.
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: Proved as well. Yep.
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: M hmm.
• 36:55
  Speaker 5: Now I just need to see it show up, you know,
• 36:59
  Speaker 5: someone else it you know, like Ray picks it up.
• 37:01
  Speaker 5: You know, I need to see it come back a lot.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: I really hope, I like, I genuinely hope that we
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: don't just leave these really cool moments of the High
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: Republic just to kind of just die off. I really
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: hope that Lucasfilm decides to throw in some easter eggs
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: with this next hopefully trilogy of movies. Yep, all right,
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: so I guess it would be my turn now.
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go ahead and choose my boy. See now,
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: mm hmm. You know what it started. It started it
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: all with him, and I think we need him. It's
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: gonna be Loaden, great Storm. I feel like Loaden definitely needed.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: And I actually just realize that I am not presenting
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: the correct page because nothing was moving there we go.
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so, Clay, I hate to bring it to you.
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: Loaden is not on your list that you sent shot.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: Did I not put him some gun? Okay? Okay? Sorry,
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: Well in that case, I can't get him. What I
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: will do is choose my other one then, the one
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: that I was intentionally gonna do until I changed my
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: last second to try to get grey Storm. I'm gonna
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: get Porter Ingle Portal. Portal. Porter has been a really
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: cool addition to the High Republic from Charles Saul. But
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: I think I I have like really started to love
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: him even more throughout this, Like, and people can argue
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: and say that it's not a vengeful hunt, but the
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: way that Porter is is hunting down this Nihill general basically,
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: I absolutely love it. Like it's it's it's it's something
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: that we're probably not supposed to love. But the way
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: that he just is not stopping, I think is really
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: really fun and really cool. It's an aspect of the
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: Jedi that we haven't really seen. So I I really
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: enjoyed his story so far.
• 39:52
  Speaker 5: No, Yeah, I'm curious when we're gonna get that broken blade.
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: I think Charles had said he had had more discussions
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: about it, but at this point, I'm like, Okay, so
• 40:10
  Speaker 3: this is not his story is not ending. There's no
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: way it's ending in Charles Jedi. Wow.
• 40:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I like that idea. You know that they've been
• 40:22
  Speaker 5: slowly kind of teasing lately. It's just we're ending this
• 40:25
  Speaker 5: current part of the High Republic, and this is the
• 40:28
  Speaker 5: end of this part of it. So promising.
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure. All right, Ryan, pick number three.
• 40:46
  Speaker 5: Gonna go with Marta Rowe on this one.
• 40:49
  Speaker 4: Nice and this should be our final ad break, So
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: y'all thanks for bearing with us.
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: We appreciate y'all. We'll be right back.
• 41:00
  Speaker 5: I think I would love to see so much more
• 41:02
  Speaker 5: of her transition from you know, the Path of Vengeance
• 41:09
  Speaker 5: to how she was in the short story yeah, oh
• 41:15
  Speaker 5: my gosh, to claw and.
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: That I forget the name of.
• 41:21
  Speaker 5: Herd story there, but that was just such an eye
• 41:23
  Speaker 5: opening story about the Everini and artist. That's just exciting stuff.
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: Getting more about the Everini would be important, I think,
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: especially to just expand on the legacy of the Higher
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: Republic that we've gotten so far. So for my next pick,
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with ty York And I know she
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: wasn't on my list, but she was on my next six.
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: I just think she's a super special character. I know
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: she's not like su for present in the main line story,
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: but I just love her characters so much and seeing
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: her grow over the comics from Cavin, Scott and Rachel.
• 42:14
  Speaker 3: I can't remember her last day, but the artwork, especially
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: in the last one Scott stop, Yes, thank you, fantastic
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: stuff and I can't wait to see more in Trials.
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: Of the Jedi.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: Rying your next up again?
• 42:34
  Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, t I might have been my next pick,
• 42:37
  Speaker 5: so that was a good choice. I don't feel like
• 42:41
  Speaker 5: I've done a lot of Phase two already. Let's see,
• 42:48
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna have to go with well, it kind of
• 42:52
  Speaker 5: works out. Looks like she's next Lula Talisola.
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: Nice.
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: We do love Lula.
• 43:03
  Speaker 5: It's been I I felt like pretty well, you know,
• 43:07
  Speaker 5: in between Phase one and three.
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: Mm hmm. Yeah, I'm behind on the Higher Republic Adventures
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: because I just wait for the Trades to come out.
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: But I can't wait for like the next part of
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: the story because like the next like three volumes are
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: coming out so close together.
• 43:26
  Speaker 5: Oh okay, because it's.
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: Oh gosh, I have I have the release dates on
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: my brain, dumb for him right here. Okay, so.
• 43:40
  Speaker 5: Wait where do it go?
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: Crash Though comes out the twenty ninth, Echos of Fear
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: comes out the twenty second jeez. So then I'm excited
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: for Echoes of Fear, especially because I feel like I
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: missed something within the Light. And then Volume three for
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: Higher Republic Adventures doesn't come out actually until the end
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: of May. But yeah, I'm excited. Basically, I feel.
• 44:13
  Speaker 5: Like, uh, I don't know. Having read Echoes of Fear
• 44:17
  Speaker 5: and then Into the Light, they did a pretty good
• 44:21
  Speaker 5: job of not giving too many specifics that happened there,
• 44:24
  Speaker 5: so it's like you almost didn't need it. Okay, it
• 44:28
  Speaker 5: is still helpful, mm hmm, all right.
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, guys, the end of the Light
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: audiobook did actually drop yesterday, so if you were laiting
• 44:40
  Speaker 3: on that, it is out in the wild.
• 44:42
  Speaker 5: Oh it did.
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: Okay, yes, because that was how.
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: It was putting on breading it the second time after
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: I got Echoes of Fear read.
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: So I guess it's my turn now. You know, we
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: had the entire fandom rallying around this character, even though
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: I feel like there wasn't much talk of him before
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: it actually happened. I'm going with the boy Buryoga.
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: I'm not surprised Buryoga.
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: Has been such a interesting character now that he's really
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: getting like the Limelight, like I said, and like even
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: Katie had said it at one point early on in
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: our reviews of The High Republic that before the Fall
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: of Starlight Beacon Bury was more of like the child's
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: like Spotlight character, like the like the Toddler books type
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: of Spotlight character. And then like as soon as he
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: basically said sacrifice himself at the Fall of Starlight Beacon
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: Lucas film, and and like everybody in the High Republic,
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: you know, was just like, hey, he's upgraded to adults.
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: Let's just completely turn his character around. And I and
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: I really love how much of an impath he is.
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: And for somebody who you literally can't understand him unless
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: you know of course uh tree loook, it's I think
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: it's so cool that we are getting so much from him,
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: Like even like the moments where he got like for
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: like a split second he got the the communicator or
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: whatever the translator and like was yelling at people and
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: then like they kind of just like got done with
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: it or whatever. He's like, you know, forget this. But yeah,
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: I've absolutely fallen in love with Burriago.
• 47:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah. I really liked how much the Hikh into the
• 47:15
  Speaker 5: Light there was and wish there's more Burry in there.
• 47:20
  Speaker 5: But yeah, I think he's gonna be more trials, you know,
• 47:23
  Speaker 5: where he's really gonna be.
• 47:25
  Speaker 7: Yeah, right, I think this is your fifth pick now, Yeah, I'm.
• 47:40
  Speaker 5: Gonna have to m gonna go with geodeh.
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: That was my next pick. I was gonna steal him.
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: And I don't know why. He is actually one of
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: the only characters I forgot to upload a picture of
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: person he grab him.
• 48:03
  Speaker 5: Yes, I feel like it's real quick and uh.
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: Now, I have a friend recently who just got done
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: with uh with phase one of the High Republic. He's
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: just now starting phase two and he was very confused
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: when Geode was first introduced, and I was like, dude,
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: trust me, Like, once you get to like midway through
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: the Falling Star, you're gonna absolutely love how much of
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: a boss Geode is. And again no no spoilers four
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: into the Light, but Geode is very much a highlight
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: of that novel as well.
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely, yeah, all right, So for my next pick,
• 49:09
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with Sad Elegant, the star of the
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: High Republic Adventures uh for phase two. I just loved
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: her growth. There is a character, and seeing where she's
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: at phase one and phase three, I thought that was
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: a really cool way to continue to tie in important
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: like important characters over the over the different timespans.
• 49:42
  Speaker 4: So h yeah, and this should be our final ad break.
• 49:47
  Speaker 4: So y'all, thanks for bearing with us. We appreciate y'all.
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: We'll be right back.
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: Right your next book. Oh sorry, yeah, go ahead.
• 49:55
  Speaker 5: No, I was just gonna say I love the way
• 49:56
  Speaker 5: that her journey, you know, it's definitely a lot of
• 49:58
  Speaker 5: fans found, uh, you know, allow themselves and her journey
• 50:03
  Speaker 5: and that that phase, which is pretty cool to see.
• 50:07
  Speaker 5: I like how the old Daniel Alter has been been
• 50:11
  Speaker 5: doing that in all of his stories.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, I really love the almost complete one
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: eighty of her character when you see her as an
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: adult compared to a much younger individual. Yeah, I really
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: do like that.
• 50:29
  Speaker 5: For my next pick, I'm going to go with Aslin rel.
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: Okay, So I chose to put as in rel from
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: phase two in this draft, but do you want but
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: do you want as Lin from like phase three?
• 50:57
  Speaker 5: It's kind of more where he came into, like where
• 51:00
  Speaker 5: it really fell for him. But and the Crazy's journey
• 51:04
  Speaker 5: has been on. I mean, either one won't work.
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: Debate, I guess. So, I guess it would really depend
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: on how you debate that character. I really love how
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: and and even me and Katie said this in a
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: most recent review. Asen was literally introduced in the Path
• 51:29
  Speaker 2: of Deceit on the very first chapter and the last
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: two pages of that book, like, you don't see anything
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: from him in phase two all that much, and then
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: you get hit with this giant bomb the next time
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: you see him, and he has completely transformed into this
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: hellscape of a character.
• 51:56
  Speaker 3: Did you ever read precedent?
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: Yes? Any balance, I think I have it.
• 52:07
  Speaker 3: We're gonna have to figure that out, because it's important
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: to read that before premonition.
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure I have it. Okay.
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: I think I've asked you this question five times and
• 52:19
  Speaker 3: you can be a different answer every time. So anyways, sorry.
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: Oh you know what? How about this? How about this?
• 52:32
  Speaker 2: It has yet to be seen in the actual novel
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: or in the comics, but I'll give you Asen's new
• 52:39
  Speaker 2: look ooh the art all right, all right, that'll be interesting. Yes,
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: all right, So my next pick, oh okay, okay, okay.
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: I really cared for this character a little more than
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: I thought I ever would, and I'm really kind of
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: upset with how it ended for this character in Phase two.
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be choosing Yanna row Of out of all
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: of the heartbreak stories that we've seen in Phase two,
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: I think Yanna's was just horrifying from somebody who became
• 53:44
  Speaker 2: so confident to somebody who was completely lost and didn't
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: know what the hell was going on. Was actually really
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: freaking terrifying to see, so like, I gosh, I almost
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: feel like going back to those to that trilogy just
• 54:10
  Speaker 2: to see his story again, but like seeing her relationship
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: completely dissolve into nothing and then like, uh oh, what
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: was his name? Her her girlfriend's father, who was like
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: the second and the second like the was it the
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: Commissioner or some sort of like tight it was like
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: some sort of title like that, but he was like
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: worth or was it the herald o Harold Harold yeah,
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: the herald yeah, like and and like her kind of
• 54:54
  Speaker 2: like telling him everything and like he was trying to
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: like start to be on the Vince and stuff. Like
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: everything literally crashed down, and I feel like Yanna was
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: kind of unfortunately just placed in the center of it
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: when she didn't really need to be. And and I
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: in a weird way loved her for that. It is
• 55:18
  Speaker 2: just like somebody who I could lash onto that wasn't
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: completely just lost in the chaos, but kind of was.
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: At the same time.
• 55:32
  Speaker 5: You already got a very good argument there, Okay, so
• 55:41
  Speaker 5: I gotta pick next.
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: Yep, you got pick seven.
• 55:48
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna go for Avon Starros nice, very nice. I
• 56:00
  Speaker 5: something about her just from was a test of courage
• 56:04
  Speaker 5: the first just from day one, it's just been so
• 56:07
  Speaker 5: interesting to me because I know it's all about the
• 56:09
  Speaker 5: Jedi for the era, but I really wanted to see
• 56:12
  Speaker 5: more normal citizens and her story and what she's been
• 56:17
  Speaker 5: doing with crystals and just her brain has just been
• 56:20
  Speaker 5: investing her mom. Her and her mom for sure are
• 56:23
  Speaker 5: also quite the story.
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I love that mother daughter relationship. That's like
• 56:30
  Speaker 3: because I always felt like I had that with my mom,
• 56:32
  Speaker 3: and I've only recently started to like build up that
• 56:34
  Speaker 3: relationship back up to like a good level where we're
• 56:39
  Speaker 3: like on the same page and stuff. So I definitely
• 56:43
  Speaker 3: really relate to her story. There very good character from
• 56:47
  Speaker 3: Justina and the development from all the other authors involved, obviously,
• 56:52
  Speaker 3: because like we say, like, oh, these characters belong to
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: their creator obviously, but still all these authors in the
• 56:58
  Speaker 3: initiative have developed up everybody along the way, all right.
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: For pick eight of the Star Wars Lions Team final pick,
• 57:08
  Speaker 3: I am going up, uh for the hero of Hetzel herself.
• 57:15
  Speaker 3: I know this may seem cliche, but I believe Avar
• 57:19
  Speaker 3: has been on an incredible journey. Pride comes before a fall,
• 57:25
  Speaker 3: you know, and I really enjoy how she found herself
• 57:31
  Speaker 3: from Falling Star to Shadows of Starlight. I think Charles
• 57:33
  Speaker 3: Hold did an incredible job there, and I can't wait
• 57:38
  Speaker 3: to see how it all leans in trials, like, oh
• 57:41
  Speaker 3: my gosh, it's coming, It's coming, y'all.
• 57:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm really glad. How you know she was you know,
• 57:51
  Speaker 5: no really point of view phase one and now she's
• 57:55
  Speaker 5: been such so well used now that she has been character.
• 58:02
  Speaker 2: Very much so. But right, I think this is your last.
• 58:09
  Speaker 5: Pick guy with the Boy of Chaos, you know. I
• 58:15
  Speaker 5: feel like probably a controversial pick is Axel gray Lard.
• 58:22
  Speaker 2: Yes, he I I really wanted to have him on
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: my list, but I was like, I don't know, Like, well,
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: I think it came down to either having Axel or Yanna,
• 58:36
  Speaker 2: and I felt more so inclined to get Yana than
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: I did Axel.
• 58:40
  Speaker 5: Makes sense, Yeah, yeah, I think I technically put together
• 58:43
  Speaker 5: like twenty four characters, and then I bought with myself
• 58:46
  Speaker 5: for like twenty minutes to figure out who is the
• 58:48
  Speaker 5: final twelve. So yeah, and then Chris helps, and then.
• 58:55
  Speaker 2: I do want to give ourselves a pat on the
• 58:59
  Speaker 2: back for not every single one of us grabbing just Jedi.
• 59:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 59:08
  Speaker 2: I feel like that's a very simple thing to do.
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: But for us to pick characters that are also, of course,
• 59:15
  Speaker 2: the quote unquote civilians of these stories, I think really
• 59:21
  Speaker 2: attest to how great the storytelling is for each of
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: these characters.
• 59:26
  Speaker 3: Absolutely like, well done, Team Higher Public. Yes, Ryan's device
• 59:36
  Speaker 3: says not connected. Uh oh, they will need to connect
• 59:40
  Speaker 3: to their mic slash camp before you can add them
• 59:42
  Speaker 3: to the stream. Right, your microphone died. I don't know
• 59:47
  Speaker 3: if you could hear us.
• 59:50
  Speaker 2: I think you might need to let him know that
• 59:52
  Speaker 2: in the.
• 59:54
  Speaker 3: He says he can hear us in the private jet.
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: Oh that's funny. Well, it might be the best time
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: for his mic to go off. I'm not entirely sure
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 2: Ran if you were going to join us for the
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: throng treason conversation. But before we jump into that, I
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 2: just want to say that this is it. We have
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 2: our bracket. I will clean this up. This was mainly
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 2: just to have an actual visual for you guys here
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 2: on YouTube. I will clean this up, make it look
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: a little bit nicer once we actually have our debate.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 2: But I will go ahead and name everybody that the
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: each team currently has.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: It looks like he got connected back.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 2: Okay, there we go.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 5: Can you hear me?
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: Okay, we can't.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 3: Gotta love technical difficulties, y'all. Technology it's a blast.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 5: I think I will probably step up just because of
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 5: the tough technical difficulties.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 2: I don't know how, you know.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 5: I don't want to keep everyone waiting for me to
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 5: randomly unmute myself again, so.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 3: No worries. Ryan, tell us where they can find you
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 3: on all the places.
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 5: So on Instagram, it's going to be Mick Manner. On
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 5: Blue Sky it's minock Manner. I don't really use Twitter
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 5: anymore otherwise, just Minckmann dot com.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 3: Yes, and y'all, I love Ryan's reviews. He does an
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 3: incredible job. Chris does an incredible job as well with
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 3: all the reviews. Guys, that is the place to go
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 3: find written Star Wars reviews. So, Ryan, thank you so
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 3: much for joining us, and we'll figure out when part
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 3: two is happening.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah time, and yes, I can't wait. Thank you again
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 5: for letting me be part of this. I'm super stoked
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 5: are you writing notes? You two are the real geniuses
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 5: with the verbal words, and so I'm gonna have a
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 5: lot of tougher time and I can't wait.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 3: Look forward, we'll have a script as well, don't worry.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 3: So all right, I have a good night, Ryan.
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 5: All right, thank you guys too.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 4: And this should be our final ad break. So y'all
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 4: thanks for bearing with us. We appreciate y'all. We'll be
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 4: right back.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: With that being said, I can exit out of all
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 2: of this and make my computer run a little bit smoother.
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 3: How hot is it in your bedroom right now?
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 2: Uh? Way too damn hot? Well, because, for one, I
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 2: usually write before we start recording, I go over here
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 2: and turn on on the AC unit. I totally forgot
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 2: to do that today. So it's actually kind of humid
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: in here right now. But I'll be totally fine. So, guys,
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 2: if you are unaware, of course, Katie has talked me
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 2: into Oh, by the way, before I even go on
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: to this conversation, let me actually see if I can
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: bring this up. Oh, I can, because I actually put
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 2: it in our Star Wars Alliance chat. Haitie. I have
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 2: not even asked you have you met this man before
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 2: at all? As somebody who has read his books. Oh,
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: prior to me, No, I have not. For some reason,
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: I didn't know this and like, so when you and
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 2: Taylor were both like, I'm so jealous, I'm like, you've
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 2: done this before, but I totally forgot you just ordered
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 2: the book sign.
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so his local bookstore, because Clay has still not
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 3: presented this photo.
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: Guys.
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 3: He has a photo getting his paperback through on Books
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 3: sirened by the woman only Timothy's on himself, which I'm
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 3: so jealous about. But he has a local bookstore. I
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 3: believe it's Winter River Books. I know it's Winter or something,
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 3: but I'm looking it up for you guys right now.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 3: But that is where I have ordered my signed books
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 3: from him. Is that bookstore, which is his local bookstore.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 3: He goes in and signs decently regularly.
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 5: You used to.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 3: Have to yes, Winter, I actually had it right wait,
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, Winter River Books. But uh, I got
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 3: my last book signed by him right before he started
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 3: asking for money because he's getting up there in age
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 3: and uh, he like, people just can't sign like they
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 3: used to, guys. So yeah, I'm very jealous Clay. Clay
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 3: had to step away for a second, but he got
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 3: to meet him at C two E two and get
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 3: all of his books signed, which is epic. I hope
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 3: you told him mar Jade is awesome.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: I well, the reason why I wanted to bring this
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 2: story up. I literally told him so so so, guys,
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: I don't for anybody who doesn't know, my second story
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 2: with the introduction of Legends was Air to the Empire.
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: The first story I ever read in Legends was the
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 2: Bane Trilogy. The second was Air to the Empire, the
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 2: first throng story. And I told him this, and I said,
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 2: Timothy's on, I love your writing. And this was told
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 2: to me by somebody referring to Katie that the Air
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: to the Empire trilogy was written in the perspective of
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 2: the rebels. Oh did you tell him this? And I
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 2: told him I hated Thron reading that story. And I
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 2: told him I did not like Thron being twenty billion
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: steps ahead of everybody. And he kind of just looked
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: at me, and I said, but this trilogy right here
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 2: that I finished and literally less than a month, all
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 2: three books. I told him, I have a new found
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: love for Thron. I didn't tell him. I didn't tell
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 2: him that. I feel like it almost sickens me that
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 2: I have this new found love for Thron, But I
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: did tell him. I did tell him that story, and
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 2: he went on to tell me like, oh, it's because
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: of how he thinks of his people first, but he's
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 2: very cunning and so in that perspective, he's able to
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 2: work for both the Empire and the Justscendency without stepping
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 2: on any toes. Well not really, that's what he said.
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 2: So like I, I thought this was a really cool moment. Yeah,
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 2: that is the only thing that I didn't absolutely love
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 2: is I knew Timothy's on was going to be at
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 2: this convention, so I brought my copy of Thron Alliance
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 2: this very what what what you're the book person? What
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 2: kind of print is this?
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 3: Is that the one I did? I send you that one?
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 2: I bought this one.
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 3: Okay, this is that is the airport version. So it's
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 3: like in between the trade paperback in the mass market paperback.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 3: So it's got the height of a trade paperback, but
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 3: it's not depth wise the same.
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 2: Yes, So so I brought this to him to sign.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 2: Right next to him, right out of view of this picture,
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: he has a rack of books where he had these
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 2: two books.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 8: And then he had this copy again, so he was
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 8: missing the trade of Alliance.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 2: I would have bought all three again. I would have
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 2: bought Alliance again. I would have gotten a second copy
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: because I actually love Alliance that much to own two
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 2: copies of this book.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 3: So I don't think Alliances is out in trade yet.
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 2: Really.
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so they're waiting for everything to kind of go
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 3: out of print before reprinting them in trade.
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 2: Oh I don't like that at all. I don't. I
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 2: don't like that at all.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 3: Because because they moved up to the size because they
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 3: wanted people to have like the same depth to like
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 3: legends books and stuff.
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 2: Uh huh.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 3: But then they kind of just when COVID hit okay,
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 3: like we need to kind of move to one form
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 3: of publication for these books. We don't need five different
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 3: copies of the same book. So then they moved to trades. Okay,
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 3: why this page ripped out your autograph page?
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 2: No, not the autograph page, literally the page before it did. Though.
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 2: Oh no, this was not a really good bounded book,
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 2: but I will still keep it. It's fine, it's autographed,
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 2: it's treason. It's my least favorite of the three. But yeah,
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 2: let's go ahead and jump into this mini review of
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 2: Star Wars Thron Treason of course, written by Timothy s On.
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 3: How did you feel? So this takes place when Thron
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 3: leaves in the middle of season four?
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 2: Yes? How I feel is this gives me go no
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 2: goddamn answers between where we see him at the end
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 2: of season four of Clone Wars or sorry Rebels, and
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 2: then where we see him again in Ahska. There is
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 2: no answers here. Now I understand, but that's not where
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 2: this book takes place. It's correct, No, no, so, but that's
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 2: the thing. There's no, there's no there's not an inkling
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 2: of breadcrumbs either. That's my problem. Okay, Now I understand,
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: and you can correct me if I'm wrong, which I
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 2: probably am. The other trilogy.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 3: Thrown Ascendency is what you're talking about.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 2: Right, Yes? Is that a sequel to this?
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 3: It's a prequel. Is a preel in the prequel trilogy?
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 2: Okay, see, then I have even more problems.
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 3: Okay, give you context of where that takes place. So
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 3: treason or not treason alliances happens in the first book
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 3: of the Ascendency trilogy.
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay, So reason for people who don't know
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 2: where in the timeline this lays start us aka, the
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 2: Death Star is still being constructed. Okay, so this is
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 2: still very early, like I would almost say like prior
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 2: to and or maybe just maybe like beginning of Like No,
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 2: this takes.
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 3: Place in season four of Rebels, which is zero.
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 2: Bb Why is it zero? Okay? So okay, yeah, okay,
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 2: so yeah, so this so okay.
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 3: So Wikipedia has this, so it says chronologically through on
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 3: Treeson is set between the Star Wars Rebels episodes Rebel
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 3: Assault and Family Reunion and Farewell. Rebel Assault is the
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 3: ninth episode of season four of Rebels. Family Reunion is
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 3: the fifteenth and final episode of Star Wars Rebels.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 2: Okay, so I still like this trilogy as a trilogy.
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 2: I think it does a very good job at doing
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 2: what it's supposed to do, which is tell you this
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 2: story of Thron's journey in the Empire. But where I
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 2: think it lacks is his journey through the Empire. And
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 2: the only reason why I say that is because I
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 2: feel like there was like five to ten years between
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 2: Alliance and Treason. It just feels like there's so much
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 2: missing between those two books.
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 3: Because you got it all in season three of Rebels.
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 2: I don't like it. No, I get it. I get
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 2: it again. This is the same issue, and you're preached
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 2: to the choir heir because I understand this all too well.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 2: This is the same problem that literally every connected universe
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 2: in every single form of media has. You look at comics,
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 2: you look at any comic book story. The main event
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 2: stories come up, and they're like, oh, you know Sally
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 2: from this story blah blah blah blah blah, and you're like,
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 2: who the hell is Sally. You're like, oh, yeah, you
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 2: know that tie in of that one series that was
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 2: like only a mini series of this one character that
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 2: you never thought about. Yeah, that mini series. This is
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 2: the exact same problem. Okay, because most people who are
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 2: reading these books, I'm gonna go ahead and say this
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 2: generalization and I might be wrong, but it's not so
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 2: wrong for every other generalization of the same type of thing.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 2: And what I'm gonna say is, the people who read
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 2: this trilogy do not read and watch in order. They're
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 2: not going to say, hey, I want to read this trilogy,
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 2: but in between this trilogy, I have to go watch Rebels.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 2: They're not going to do that. They're going to read
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 2: Throng throng Alliances and then thro on Treason and this.
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 4: Should be our final ad break. So y'all, thanks for
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 4: bearing with us. We appreciate y'all. We'll be right back.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 3: So I will adjust what I had said.
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 5: By the way, Uh.
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 3: This, so Treason takes place after episode nine of season four. Yeah,
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 3: so that's what you're getting. So Alliances takes place after
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 3: the present timeline of Alliances takes place after season three
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 3: of Rebels. Then then you have the first part of
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 3: season four of Rebels, and then you have Treason and
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 3: then So I think the thought process with this release
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 3: is that a lot of people still had Rebels in
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 3: their head because Alliances came out in twenty eighteen. Season
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 3: three of Rebels came out in twenty sixteen, so a
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 3: lot of people just had it in their head because
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 3: Rebels had just recently come out, or as you're reading
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 3: it now, and Rebels isn't like really in your head.
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm just saying this.
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 2: Is seven years after the book was released.
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 3: So no, not saying you're wrong, just presenting where it
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 3: came up kind of in publishing.
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 2: No, I get it, I get it. I totally get.
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 3: It, because so if so Rebels season three came out
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 3: it started in twenty sixteen October first, twenty sixteen, and
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 3: it ended March twenty fifth, twenty seventeen, so that this
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 3: is about a year ish later. And Season four of
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 3: Rebels came out March October sixteenth, twenty seventeen, so the
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 3: treasons like two years after this, and I think people
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 3: were just kind of looking for like a Okay, hey,
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 3: where are we at in this break?
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 2: Okay? So also another problem that I have with the
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 2: trilogy because there is still no resul by the end
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 2: of this book. Throng Treason, the Grolics, Am I missing
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 2: something here? Yeah? Sorry? The Risks, the Risks, am I
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 2: missing something here?
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 3: And you're you're not missing anything.
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 2: Like you're they they're oh, the Risks are a huge
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 2: problem for the Empire. They are a huge threat for
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 2: the Empire. And then you you see all of these
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 2: moments again, it's these moments that you're supposed to see
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 2: in these novels. That's not the part that I'm upset about.
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 2: But Thron even speaks with like his closest parts of
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 2: his team is like, oh, I thought twenty billion steps
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 2: ahead and we're gonna do this and do this, and
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 2: do this and do this. Oh and they're actually uh
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 2: uh gonna you know, plan for this because they don't
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 2: want to be you know, this big of a problem.
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 2: But you know, they're actually waiting to see what our
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 2: next step is. But I'm actually twenty steps ahead of them.
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 2: And no, no, no, like like you know, okay, Thron
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 2: is trying to weed them out to attack because they
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 2: are a problem not only for the Empire, but again
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 2: his number one reason for living is to protect the
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 2: Chist and nothing comes of it. Literally, I feel like
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 2: I had never heard of this threat anywhere else and
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 2: anything Star Wars. It's introduced in Thron. Sorry no, sorry,
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 2: it's introduced in an alliance because it's it happens along
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 2: with Darth Vader and Anakin yep, and then nothing.
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 3: Well, And this is the problem with Star Wars, right,
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 3: is like most of the time you need a villain
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 3: in Star Wars, and unless you want an interplanetary conflict
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 3: like what you get with Classic this, then you need
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 3: some giant threat involved. And so in some cases that's
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 3: the Empire. In this case, Zohn was able to kind
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 3: of write this outside of the parameters of what's going
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 3: on and is able to just kind of intertwine what
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 3: intertwined a conflict. The risks come up more in the
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 3: Ascendency trilogy, and you'll find out and I don't really
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 3: consider as a spoiler, but you'll find out the risks
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 3: is why thron was sent to go to the Empire
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 3: because he found Anakin in Alliances and in that in
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 3: the past sections of Alliances, and so he found Anakin
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 3: there and he they hear that, oh the Republic has
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 3: turned into the Empire. So then thron Is send out
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 3: under guise of expulsion from the just as tendency for
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 3: breaking rules and is like, okay, see if they will
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 3: become a good partner for us. Yeah, And so that's
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 3: kind of what's intertwined here. But you like, when this
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 3: book came out, people were like, Okay, what happens next
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 3: to Vanto, what happens next to Ronan?
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 2: Like, well, you know, and that is unexceptible, unexceptible, and
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 2: the reason being, you put me through all of this
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 2: for Eli's story, Okay, all of this. Van Too was
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 2: a character that I immediately immediately gravitated towards because he
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 2: was just like bro I don't even go here. I was,
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 2: this isn't even my job. This dude accidentally successfully failed upward,
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 2: like like he could have succeeded on his own. But
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 2: Thron was like, nah, dude, this is where you don't
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 2: want to be, and I'm gonna make sure you're the
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 2: best at it. And he it's like, what, like, I
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 2: didn't sign up for this, and so yeah, you gravitate
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 2: towards him through his whole story, and then Thrones like, hey,
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 2: I got another mission you don't want to do and
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 2: throws him into a completely different quote unquote empire of course,
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 2: the Chess ascendency, and like he's basically now a deserter
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 2: working for this entirely different entity, learning a whole new language,
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 2: basically becoming a second throng, by the way, very slowly,
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 2: and like and you're telling me, oh, by the way,
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 2: you never learn what happens to him after this book,
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 2: Like fuck, and you cannot tell me that.
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 3: So and I think the problem lies in the fact
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 3: that this ran into Okay Rebels season four, Thron goes
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 3: bye bye. I don't think And this could have been
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 3: a question that you asked Zon had I known you
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 3: were going to meet him. I don't think Zon wants
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 3: to write Star Wars without having Thron or one of
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 3: his other characters involved. I think he's written one Star
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 3: Wars book in its entirety that doesn't have Thron yep girls.
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 3: Every other book that he's written four Star Wars has
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 3: either had marge Ad or has had Thrown, or has
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 3: had both. So it's kind of like, eh, which is
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 3: I think why you get the Ascendency trilogy to give
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 3: you more background on the risks and the chests and everything,
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 3: because Lucas Holme basically probably said to him, no, you
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 3: can't write a sequel because we don't know what happens
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 3: to Thron yet, and Dave Filoni wants to use him
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 3: in Asoka.
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 2: Bullshit, That's what I.
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 3: Just say, the logical reason.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 2: And then and then, as much as I hated the
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 2: asshole rowin mm hmm, at the very end of this book,
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 2: like this dude is a sleezebag the entire story, the
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 2: entire story. He is a brown noser for critic man,
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 2: he is just a Oh I follow the impact. I
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 2: ain't finally the impact. I ain't finally impact. Starting at started, started, started,
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 2: I wanted to smack the shit out of this dude.
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 2: And then at the very end, when he finally gets
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 2: the guts to do something actually good, Thrown goes, hey,
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 2: I really appreciate your work. By the way, you're a
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 2: dead man, and he's like, what, yeah, you don't understand,
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 2: like Vader is gonna be watching your back, and after
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 2: the ship you pulled today, you really think you're gonna
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 2: survive under Vader. And he's like, all right, yeah, you
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 2: got me. And so like a boss, he's like, hey,
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 2: you called one of my best friends a trader. I'm
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 2: gonna make you a trader, go work for for my people,
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 2: and now you can tell me. I don't get to
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 2: know what happens, but ro now, granted I could, I
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 2: could almost guarantee you I can make that educated guess.
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 2: Right now, they transfer him into the other ship. That
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 2: airlock closes, blast to the head. I don't think he
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 2: makes it into light speed. I genuinely don't because of
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 2: uh uh uh oh what was her name? What was
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 2: her name?
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 3: Alani?
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Orlani? No way, like, because she was even like
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 2: are you serious, Like you're gonna make me watch after
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 2: this dude, and you think he's gonna help me I
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 2: don't think so, Like I I genuinely think he didn't
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 2: even make it to hyperspace.
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 3: But even if he did, he realized.
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 2: Being yeah, like this whole again, Brown knows her for
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 2: the freaking empire. He's only here, like and he I
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 2: love how he thinks that he is like playing forty
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 2: chess while Ron is like eating the pieces or something,
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 2: because this dude's like, oh, but I know how intellectual
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 2: Thron is, but he doesn't know how intellectual that I
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 2: can be. So he probably doesn't know that I know
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 2: that he knows that I know that he knows, So
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna act like I don't know that he knows
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 2: that he knows that I don't know. Like he tries,
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 2: he tries to do all of these things. At the
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 2: very end of the book, he's like, but this is
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 2: the real plan and then like the book ends, and
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 2: I'm just like d like, and I don't get to
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 2: know what happens after that. That's a bullshit, And that
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 2: is why that is why this is the weakest book
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 2: out of the trilogy.
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 3: It's totally fair, and I think it falls victim to
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 3: it can't tell you what happened next because Lucasfon once
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 3: he's thrown Theoretically, theoretically, could John decide to write a
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 3: novel about Aurlani and Vanto and Ronan? Yes, yes he could.
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 3: I just don't know if he would. Would you read
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 3: that book if it did in fact come out?
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 4: And this should be our final ad break, So y'all,
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 4: thanks for bearing with us.
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 3: We appreciate y'all. We'll be right back.
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 2: After reading this. On there is and And I told this.
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 2: I told this to Zahn and I've said it to
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 2: you before, Like we're there to be somebody who has
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 2: me rooting for the Empire through my entire life. I
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 2: was told never to root for the Empire. Well, like,
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 2: that's just good storytelling, Like because because there's a complete difference. Okay,
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 2: you look at something like uh oh, shoot, what was
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 2: the story with Palpatine Invader. It's ah, lords of the Sith.
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 2: You look at Lords of the Sith. I'm not rooting
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 2: for Palpatine Invader m h in that story because there's
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 2: still an entirely different part of that story that's the
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 2: literal birth of the rebellion. Yeah, Like it's a badass story.
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 2: You get to see Palpatine actually be badass. Outside of
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 2: Revenge of the Sith, Darth Vader is a fucking menace
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 2: in that book. It's terrifying and cool. But I never
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 2: once was rooting for the Empire. This this has me
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 2: literally rooting for the empire mm hmm, making your protagonist somebody.
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 2: And that's the really fun and tricky thing about it,
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 2: is like, yeah, you're rooting for the Empire, but like,
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 2: deep down inside, you're actually just rooting for the just
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 2: ascendency and you don't know it, like that's really what
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 2: it is.
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 3: It's but you don't don't.
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 2: You don't earn that until later on in the story.
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 2: And it's still written in such a way because even
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 2: you look at the last conversation in this book is
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 2: between Palpatine and Throng, and Thron's like do you think
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 2: I'm Like it's Palpatine telling Thron like do you think
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 2: I'm stupid? Like I know exactly what you're doing, what
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 2: like what is stopping me from making the decision right
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 2: now that your decisions are going to backfire on me
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 2: and you're the threat to the Empire And Thron is
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 2: just cold face like dude, I got you, Like, yeah,
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 2: I am looking out for my people. But I have
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 2: told you again and again and again, I swore myself
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 2: to the Empire, so therefore I will protect you and
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 2: the Empire. And it just works out like it. It's
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 2: almost silly. You could almost say that it's quote unquote
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 2: bad writing because Thron has the exact same excuse every
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 2: single time he talks to Palpatine or Invader. But the
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 2: repetitiveness shows his consistency, which makes him a good character
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 2: in this trilogy. Mm hmm, which is why I read
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 2: this trilogy and then look back at Ahsoka and I'm like,
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 2: what happened? How do you screw up? They slaughtered my boy?
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 9: Like like like, oh, Nicholson is such a good voice
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 9: for Thron, but they could have done something like also
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 9: just prosthetic wise, like okay, we're not talking about that,
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 9: but like he just does.
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 3: He doesn't look like Thrown, he doesn't act like Thron.
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 3: He's got the voice, and that's like it.
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 2: And now I can tell you this right now, let's say,
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 2: you know, they pull a complete one eighty and now
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 2: that they're actually in our known galaxy that we've known
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 2: since the very beginning of Star Wars, and then Thron's like,
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 2: oh yeah, by the way, I was just saying all
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 2: this so that way I can get here. Let me
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 2: go calm up, my my family, And then the chess
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 2: syndacy all comes up and like starts doing shit. Then
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 2: then you you got me like okay, cool, like we're
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 2: we're heading in the right direction. Cool you you, I'm
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 2: for you, are forgiven for your past sins. Let's keep
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 2: on this road. But if they don't do anything like that,
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 2: and they keep going on this weird thing of thron
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 2: of all people wanting to be the ruler of the galaxy,
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 2: it makes no sense.
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 3: No, he doesn't want to be a ruler.
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 10: And I highly doubt that they are going to bring
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 10: in the Chiss into whether it's a Soca season two or.
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 3: Like the Air of the Empire movie. I just don't
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 3: think it's gonna happened.
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, it's a shame. But guys, it is
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 2: getting late. That is it for our review. If you
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 2: are not listening to this on a random high Republic
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 2: draft episode, that means that you are listening to all
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 2: three reviews all at once. And this was in the
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 2: matter of two and a half months that we talked
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 2: about all three of these books really really fun to
• 1:36:01

• 1:36:41
  Speaker 2: the the just to sendency just because I need a
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 2: palate cleanser there there. It was heavy to read all
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 2: three of these and knowing that that's going to give
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 2: me a full background on the Chists and everything else, Like,
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 2: I feel like that's going to be a very heavy read.
