The Prostate Papers—Chapter 6: The Wrap
The wrap and final episode of The Prostate Papers. It's time to draw this story to a close. Gary Ebersole here, back with the closing chapter of The Prostate Papers. You might have noticed the recent “dead air” from the Camp Codger podcast. I haven’t abandoned Camp Codger, but I couldn’t bring myself to deliver another long episode about prostate cancer.

The Armies of Star Wars: the First Order vs the Resistance
Welcome to a new series from Loose Canon, The Armies of Star Wars, where we dive into the military forces on both sides of the conflict from each movie trilogy.

On top of that, much of the supplemental content surrounding the sequels isn't in the minds of many fans, for various reasons. While you shouldn't be expected to read three books to understand what's going on, it certainly...

Darth Vader: The Machine
In this stunning conclusion to our Darth Vader two-parter, we get to the core of what makes Vader tick - seriously his suit probably does tick a little. When it comes to the complex mechanisms keeping that quivering Christmas ham alive on the inside, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Parts that include some pretty cool gloves. I mean what did you expect? All that space diabeetus really takes its toll on your circulation. Luckily glove technology is so advanced that Vader was able to lead a somewhat normal, albeit excruciatingly painful life.

Star Wars Loose Canon
How Jedi Work
It ain't easy being Jedi. In this episode, the boys cover what it takes to make it at the Jedi Academy and why Anakin had it rough as a Jedi. Also what does it take to balance the Force? Certainly it has something to do with the Sith, right? Theme song performed by Charles Laurita (written by John Williams).
