Obroa-skai WalkersOSW Interlude #19: Caveats on CaveatsI don't know about y'all, patrons, but I hear that Aerosmith song playing! You know the one. After a hiatus that went on much too long, we're back to shoot the breeze about Boba Fett and so many bugs! At one point Cole almost accidentally says "snooniverse" and he thought I didn't notice, but I definitely did.

Obroa-skai Walkers2021: A Year In ReviewAs the title suggests, this isn't a new book or even a proper interlude. We were SUPPOSED to record an episode of Skyhoppers, but when Cole and I get left alone, it basically turns into this show anyway so we just went ahead and did that on purpose. We take a look back at the books we read in 2021 and try to rank them against one another. We also try to rank the rest of the books we've read, but that's a big task.

Obroa-skai WalkersLuke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor Chapters 17-End: In the Mouth of Kar VastorWe had some trouble getting together to get this one recorded at first, but now we're here to deliver the last two chapters of LUKE SKYWALKER AND THE SHADOWS OF MINDOR.

Obroa-skai WalkersLuke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor Chapters 12-14: "Slightly More Cronal" LukeI guess it wouldn't be COMPLETELY unrealistic to say that you saw this week's cliffhanger coming, but I would definitely be giving you a side eye because it hit ME like a ton of bricks.

Obroa-skai WalkersTales From Jabba's Palace Stories 17-End: What Is Soup?We're bummed to be saying goodbye to our first Tales book, but we still manage to send it out in a big way! Boba Fett!

Obroa-skai WalkersTales From Jabba's Palace Stories 11-13: The Magic Conch ShellIn what is likely our strongest crop of stories from the book yet, we're talking about the tales of Bib Fortuna, Barada and the Weequays, and EV-9D9. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll cringe in fear at the displays of hypersadism!

Obroa-skai WalkersTales From Jabba's Palace Stories 3-6: A Different Kind of DumbBen makes Star Wars black and white for some reason, some discussion of the Star Wars goodies coming to Disney+, and some mild Visions speculation!

Obroa-skai WalkersRepublic Commando: Triple Zero Chapters 22-End: CommandaloriansGettin' real lost in the weeds with stubs this week, good patrons. What does it mean to be a stub? Who decides what gets to be a stub and what doesn't?? I don't know. It doesn't matter. What DOES matter is that we finished Triple Zero and now we're wrecked.

Obroa-skai WalkersRepublic Commando: Triple Zero Chapters 17-21: Jangos All AroundThings start to get heavy in the reading this week, but not heavy enough to make us feel even remotely comfortable. Cole delivers some action figure rumors and Ben has too many feelings about the book. Business as usual around here! For next week, finish Triple Zero!

Obroa-skai WalkersRepublic Commando: Triple Zero Chapters 7-11: Wholesome In A "War Crime" Kinda WayChapters 7 through 11 certainly hit us with some surprises, but mostly just sadness.

Obroa-skai WalkersRepublic Commando: Triple Zero - "Omega Squad: Targets" and Prologue-Chapter 2This one's a doozy, folks! I'm not even quite sure how it got so long. We must've spent a little too long giving our "brief" Mando finale impressions. But when we finally do get to the book discussion for this week, we're discussing the short story "Omega Squad: Targets", and then the prologue through chapter 2 of Republic Commando: Triple Zero!

Obroa-skai WalkersOSW Interlude #15: Self-Aware HypocritesEverything happens so much all the time. Yessss, technically this a Legends podcast, but you can't have seriously expected us to not talk about everything that came out of the Disney investor call last week. It was just never going to happen that way. But! You know what IS Legends? TRIPLE ZERO by Karen Traviss! Read the short story in the back of the book titled "Omega Squad: Targets," and then the prologue through chapter 2.

Obroa-skai WalkersShadows of the Empire Finale: No Reward Is Worth ThisYou might've thought that you were free of both Shadows of the Empire AND us, but you'd be wrong on both counts. As we've promised for the last few weeks, we're finally getting around to finishing up Shadows of the Empire! We read the comic and then played the game to make sure that we got the full experience.

Obroa-skai WalkersShadows of the Empire Chapters 38-End: Six-Ounce StakeGuri is freed, Xizor makes an exit that is not nearly as dramatic as one would expect, and diamond-boron missiles! What more could you ask for from the conclusion of Shadows of the Empire? Well, aside from an episode of this podcast that doesn't get interrupted by internet troubles. But we even have that this week! This week's Article From the Archives: Dar'Or Ben's Twitter Cole's Twitter The Skyhoppers Podcast Legends Library2020-10-201h 15
Obroa-skai WalkersShadows of the Empire Chapters 37-End: Er... Kinda.Sigh. Texas strikes back. We were only able to get through our intro section and the first part of the reading this week.

Obroa-skai WalkersEpisode CXCVIII - War in the StarsListen up, you statistics: this episode is something entirely new. We were gonna talk about TCW and couldn't. Then we were gonna make our RPG characters, but then we couldn't. So we decided to spend our time talking about Star Wars Screen Rant articles, and the conversation that comes out of it is more in-depth than you might believe.

Obroa-skai WalkersShadows of the Empire Chapters 29-36: Increase Jade OpticsI hear the Emperor has an eight-pack. I hear the Emperor is shredded. Honestly, as I type that the day after we recorded, I can't remember why we said it. That must mean it's a good episode, right? Topics also include: jade ops, moonglow, and Dash Ex Machina. For next week, finish the gosh-dang book! This week's Article From the Archives: Undervector Ben's Twitter Cole's Twitter The Skyhoppers Podcast Legends Library2020-10-061h 37
Obroa-skai WalkersShadows of the Empire Chapters 22-28: Commence Primary IgnitionWell. He's done it. Xizor has finally turned into his most terrible final form. But we try to make it brief because it's gross and uncomfortable to read for countless reasons. But thankfully chapters 22-28 aren't TOTAL trash.

Obroa-skai WalkersShadows of the Empire Chapters 1-6: Er.... wait. OSW Interlude #14The internet is a rough place. Sometimes so rough Cole can't even access it. What happened is that we got halfway through recording this ep and then Cole's internet died. So have this half interlude kinda thing that we ended up with? Thank you for your time.

Obroa-skai WalkersOSW Interlude #13 - No Pheremones RequiredTake two seconds to think about the title of this interlude, and you'll probably be able to divine that we're reading SHADOWS OF THE EMPIRE by Steve Perry this time around! We're also talking about collecting a lot? So that's a fun direction the podcast is going. Topics include big box Star Wars PC games, the West End RPG (yes, again), and the possibility of doing comics in the future! A busy episode, but would you expect anything else from us at this point?

Obroa-skai WalkersRepublic Commando: Hard Contact - Chapters 13-16: You Give A Mando A Melee WeaponThe first half of the show is pretty one-sided, if we're being honest. Ben basically talks about topics HE wants to talk about and Cole is gracious enough to let him tire himself out. What a great guy. Please read chapters 13-16 of Hard Contact before listening to this one, and finish the book before listening to the next one.

Obroa-skai WalkersRepublic Commando: Hard Contact - Chapters 9-12: PodsonasOkay, Cole just wants to talk about Hard Contact and Ben is INSISTENT on making side trips. Wookieepedia is both a blessing and a curse. But in his defense, someone was breaking into Ben's house to take photos of his Ree-Yees figure.

This week, we cover the Light of the Jedi excerpt (very good), Star Wars Squadrons (very good), and... Boshek, I guess.

Also: Project Luminous... what is it? We certainly don't know. But you do by the time you're hearing this! Funny how that works. Chapters 18-22 of Dark Force Rising this week!

Obroa-skai WalkersDark Force Rising - Chapters 9-13At a base level, we talk about chapters 9-13 of Dark Force Rising. On either side of that discussion, however, it's kinda all over the place. But would you expect anything else from us at this point? Touching on the Sequel Trilogy, reboots, rumors, and then the New Jedi Order after the book discussion. Wild stuff.

Obroa-skai WalkersDark Force Rising - Chapters 5-8This week, we read chapters 5-8 of Dark Force Rising, spend entirely too much time talking about The Old Republic, and lament the sheer time investment that reading the New Jedi Order will be for this podcast.

It isn't really over. This is just an interlude to remind everyone that we still exist. Also to talk about the freakin' MANDALORIAN. But we'll be back for real soon!

Obroa-skai WalkersShatterpoint - Chapters 22-EndWe're finally leaving Haruun Kal for good, folks. And it feels good, but also kinda bad. We made some real memories here. Most of them are not good, but there were some good Mace-isms along the way.

Obroa-skai WalkersShatterpoint - Chapters 6-9Stover really keeps the hits coming this week, not that anyone really expected him to stop. This book just keeps getting better despite all of the bad stuff though!! Or maybe because of it?? Either way, it leaves us well and truly forked.

Obroa-skai WalkersShatterpoint - Chapters 1-5Fresh off of our accidental hiatus from last week, we're finally ready to jump into chapters 1-5 of Shatterpoint by Matthew Stover! This book is... a lot, to say the least. "Graphic" only gets part of the way there, at least by Star Wars standards. But it's good all the same, and we hope you'll follow along on our journey across Haruun Kal!

Obroa-skai WalkersOSW Interlude #7 - Pic and Gorc SuckWe're back! After what feels like a millennium! Standard interlude fodder this week.

Obroa-skai WalkersSurvivor's Quest - Chapters 24-EndWe're sad this week. Survivor's Quest has, at long last, come to an end.

Obroa-skai WalkersSurvivor's Quest - Chapters 20-23In this penultimate episode of our jaunt through Survivor's Quest, some big stuff happens this week! Formbi isn't as trustworthy as we thought, Drask is way cooler than we thought, and Fel does a fight.

Obroa-skai WalkersSurvivor's Quest - Chapters 16-19Finally! Some of our questions are answered! But not all of them. Not even close. There are still so many questions.

Obroa-skai WalkersSurvivor's Quest - Chapters 6-10Continuing our journey through Survivor's Quest by Timothy Zahn, we open the episode dicussing some of the pros and cons of both Legends and Canon. It might come across as ragging on Canon a little hard, but we both love it. Really. We promise. We also touch on the first new Legends content we've gotten in years!!!

Obroa-skai WalkersSurvivor's Quest - Chapters 1-5Yes, I know we just finished a Timothy Zahn book. But we're jumping forward about 20 years in the timeline, so this should be sufficiently different. How are Luke and Mara so perfect for each other? Also why are we talking about Master and Apprentice? Chapters 1-5 of Survivor's Quest this week!

Obroa-skai WalkersOSW Interlude #6 - ...The Phantom Menace?WE BACK. It feels like it's been forever, but it's only been like three weeks. Get off of our backs. We take an oddly deep dive on different edits/versions of A New Hope and the OT in general, Cole is sweating, drop some challenging opinions regarding Revenge of the Sith, and celebration The Phantom Menace the best way we know how: by kind of talking around it. But as far as business is concerned, the book we're tackling this time around is Survivor's Quest by Timothy Zahn! All the Luke and Mara feels. Read chapters 1-5 for next...2019-05-211h 49
Obroa-skai WalkersHeir to the Empire - Chapters 28-EndWell, loyal listeners, it's here. The beginning is coming to an end. This week, we tackle the last few chapters of Heir to the Empire and look to the future. Does this book live up to the hype? We certainly think so.

Obroa-skai WalkersHeir to the Empire Chapters 24-27Well. This episode isn't two hours long, but it isn't too far off. Why are we so insistent on playing pretend in this wide and wonderful Star Wars universe? It makes these episodes go much longer than they need too. Anyway, this week, Karrde is still in trouble, and Mara wakes up for once. Chapters 24-27 of Heir to the Empire! For next week, finish the book!

Obroa-skai WalkersHeir to the Empire - Chapters 19-23This one is another doozy of an episode. But since Celebration happened, you KNOW we had to talk about that some. There was just no getting around it. Thankfully, however, we do discuss chapters 19-23 of Heir to the Empire as well. For next week, chapters 24-27!

Obroa-skai WalkersHeir to the Empire - Chapters 13-18Our review of Heir to the Empire chapters 13-18 might be our best balance of content and goofs yet.

Obroa-skai WalkersHeir to the Empire - Chapters 7-12Does the name of Dooku's clone have two Us or three Os? Not important. Heir to the Empire chapters 7-12! Ben is sick and the first random article this week was just too topical to pass up.

Obroa-skai WalkersHeir to the Empire - Chapters 1-6This episode is uhhhhh kind of a doozy. Like REALLY a doozy. We started talking about the Article From the Archives and then fell down multiple rabbit holes and then had to talk about HEIR TO THE EMPIRE CHAPTER 1-6 and almost two hours later we finally called it. BUT. This episode is worth the running time. And who knows? Some of you probably like long episodes.

Obroa-skai WalkersOSW Interlude #5 - Hey Barbara Hambly?
