In Episode 142, hosts Alyce and Laura find* a possible new career path for Alyce: Star Wars movie prop auction item appraiser… or fortune teller. It’s between those two options.

• Anyone else loving Foxy Knoxy on Hulu?
• Prop Watch is over (for now)! One of us guessed almost exactly right and the other one… did not
• Why do we keep forgetting that Maul: Shadow Lord is going to be a thing?
• The people yearn for more Hondo Ohnaka (via The Direct)
• Oscar Isaac may be on the hunt for a new/another house (via GamesRadar, this Deadline article also mentioned)
• We probably should have listened to the podcast to get the full context, but this recent interview with a certain SW showrunner is… confusing (via GamesRadar)
• Today’s segment of Star Wars Capitalism is here to deck the halls of your hopefully-high ceiling household this holiday season
• Sebulba lives! A brief overview of the Dug species. Because why not?
• Alyce learns what a meta quest is! Laura misses The Void VR experience! But maybe this Beyond Victory thing will scratch that itch?

In Episode 141, hosts Alyce and Laura demand* justice for Luke’s cancelled Tosche Station plans. Those power converters aren’t going to pick up themselves!

• Beware, movie prop auction houses have hidden fees for those buying $2 million lightsabers. Rich people - they’re just like us!
• If an Allen Wrench is good enough for film-grade lightsabers, it’s good enough for your Ikea bookshelf.
• I guess we can finally be confident that Star Wars: Starfighter will actually get made (I mean, it has a cast and everything now).
• Auntie Alyce, The Elder: Mullet Expert
• Ah yes, the classic villain in Ahsoka season 1: Babylon. Babylon Skull will return in S2. That was definitely his name.
• Speaking of, should we do an Ahsoka S1 re-watch? We’re thinking we should do an Ahsoka S1 re-watch.
• Some folks have seen a sneak peak of season 3 of Star Wars Visions and we particularly enjoyed this review of what was shown at Anime NYC.
• No more streaming series for you! Now it’s just trilogies on trilogies.
• Thanks to Sal of Rogue Rebels for the Throwback to Celebration 2016!

• First came the Mando-verse, now we’re [allegedly] getting a Rey-verse?
• Some new reveals about the original cut of Rogue One, courtesy of Alan Tudyk
• The internet is just a big game of Telephone, which is essentially why some people thought Obi-Wan was going to show up in Ahsoka… or is he?
• No, but really. What would actually happen if an actor spilled the spoiler tea about an upcoming project?
• Ron Howard is not here to start drama (unlike SOME people we know)
• Imagine being so good at your job, they have to use movie magic to slow you down (via Collider)
• Laura can’t decide if she’s more embarrassed for Disney or GC with this lawsuit settlement. Fortunately, Alyce has a casting solution.
• You gotta be Rich Rich (one Rich isn’t enough) to get this Death Star LEGO set that is allegedly coming soon.
