Long time listener since the Jabba days. This is such a great show! In the latest episode you took the gloves off and let the toxic hateful minority of the fandom have it. I loved every second. Please keep the episodes coming. Side note, you played an excerpt of the Lost Episode, but I couldn’t figure out what was missing. Seemed like a completely normal RotP discussion. Many boats!

Long time listener since jabba the pod. And while I respect your commitment to positivity, the strong support for acoyte is too much for me. 5 stars for the good times. Best of luck to the 3 of you!

This show is amazing. Got me through the dark times of COVID and life since then. The chemistry between Brain, Matt and Caitlyn is so strong and the positive spin they put into the show reminds me of why I love fantasy and sci-fyi in general. I will listen as long as you keep making the show. Cannot say enough good things.

Really dig this pod. Positive without being gushy. Smart and funny. It’ll be staying on my subscription list for a long time.

I love the show! I look forward to every episode! There can never be enough of Brian’s puns, Matt’s hot takes, and Caitlyn’s Star Wars hugs!

Real honest fans reviewing everything without some media bias. She has me at “hello there”! The guys are ones I could plow some spotchka with watching the films or shows. All in all the best Star Wars related podcast

I wish you guys knew how refreshing you are. Your point of view on Star Wars is literally the only one that keeps me centered on what is really important

A most impressive podcast

Get caught up in the Crosshair and listen to this today, y’all. Insanely funny and always good vibes, giving everyone hope amid the prevalent toxicity of online fandom. Good info and good vibes. Also, they just got back, & probably planning on covering the new shows in 2024!

Tristin Bedsole from Huntsville AL Glad to have you guys back love you guys God bless!

I grew up watching the original trilogy. I read the books, which are now legends. I never thought there would be more. Then there were the prequels, The Clone Wars, Rebels, the sequels, and live action shows. And to cap it all off - a podcast that is by fans and for fans. You keep it fun and remember what it is all about. It is like hanging out with others who truly share my joy for Star Wars. May the force be with you. This is the way. Many boats. Moldy Crow 253

Look forward to each episode for all things Star Wars. Great back and forth between Brian, Matt and CMB. A comprehensive deep dive into whatever show they’re reviewing but still keeps things light and fun.

Not just my favorite Star Wars Podcast but my favorite overall Podcast. I look toward to it every Friday. The crew is very knowledgeable, but most of all super positive about Star Wars. Never hating on anything even if the don’t really like something. Brian and Matt are super funny, but my favorite thing is Caitlin’s laugh. It is genuine and you can hear how much she is enjoying herself.

I discovered this crew a few years back when looking for something to listen to on my delivery routes and quickly became hooked. Brian, Caitlin, and Matt are as entertaining and informative as they come, and really… Lucasfilm should be putting these fine folks to work. After watching SW Celebration’s cringeworthy hosts this year, I know this trio could bring the Force to the table. A great find, and their positivity and humor is a welcome addition to the sea of fan podcasts. Many boats!

Still one of my all time favorite podcasts out there! Been listening since the beginning of The Old Show and still excited to tune in every week. The bits never get old and I almost feel like Matt, Brian, and Caitlin are my good friends. I'll always recommend this pod to friends. Many Boats & May the Force be with You

Alway has been excellent but still gets better with every episode! Many boats!

Trio of Star Wars fans talking current Star Wars shows and goings on! Not over critical and constantly complaining. I enjoy the show for the sheer joy the gang gets out of current Star Wars content. Definitely worth a listen! Keep up the good work, guys!

My word choice for Ahmed Best coming back to Start Wars and being a total boss is “cathartic”. He needed it, we needed it, and Favreau, Filoni, Famuyiwa, and Apollo Creed delivered it…Bravo! …much like after a day of wading through trade magazines and social media, you guys deliver a positive 60-90 minutes of friends talking happily about Star Wars. Cathartic!

Great show as always. Bo’s maneuver in the dogfight reminds me of Top Gun

Miss Caitlin Brian ‘n Matt give us the Best Holocomms chatter from all across the Galaxy ! Sent from the Star Binger to us ! Got ‘em in my Star Wars Podcast Playlist ! They’re Recommended Listenin’ by me RFB

Really, these 3 are so much fun to listen to. I love every crazy bit, every sound effect and every crazy impression. I’m so glad they are back and will listen for as long as they want to produce! Welcome back!!! Many Boats!

Used to be my favorite go-to Star Wars podcast, until you beat the voices and characters to death. The ziro thing is way overplayed. It got to a point where it was no longer worth sitting through all the goofiness to hear a little bit of relevant star wars talk

Look, all I can say is that when they take a short break between Star Wars shows, I miss them terribly. They’re like my weird, nerdy, funny friends whom I look forward to spending time with each week. I think this is a show you will either love or hate, but if you like your Star Wars with a side of kooky, give this pod a listen.

You guys rock! Best trio since the original trilogy. Glad you will be back soon. Y’all been a staple since mando for me. Love the positive commentary.

I've been a fan since Jabba the Pod and their joy and love for Star Wars is second to none! I always look forward to listening to their podcast after the newest Star Wars show/book/game/comic releases. They are inciteful, genuine, and also, true story: one time I was listening to the show on the way to work and had to pull over because I was laughing/crying so hard. Please give them a listen and you will not be disappointed! Many boats!

Recently lost my job due to downsizing. I am a lifelong fan of Star Wars. Return of the Jedi was the very first movie I saw in theatres. I’ve followed the podcast since Jabba the Pod. You guys have brought joy to my life during this dark time in my life. I love the three of you equally and as always, many boats. 🙏🏽❤️

The funniest, positive-est, bestist Star Wars Podcast! I laugh out loud every week! Azoo is the greatest droid in the Star Wars Universe, he can live with me anytime!

Such a fun pod and the positive approach to Star Wars and fandom are contagious. Their theatrical background is wonderfully apparent in the show.

I was so sad when “the old show” was vaporized but when I heard Brian on Screencrush filling in for Ryan, I was so happy!!! I’ve caught up within the last week on the missed shows and can’t wait to see where the adventures of the starbinger go from here Many Boats! J.

Easily my favorite Star Wars Pod. Always puts me in a good mood after I listen to Brian, Caitlin and Matt. I still listen to the old pod when I’m bored or rewatching the Clone Wars.

I cannot say how much I love this show, but I will at least mention a little. It’s like listening to some good friends lovingly discuss and fawn over Star Wars as much as I do with my friends. So much love for everything in a galaxy far far away, and also a boatload of love for everyone on Earth who brings it to us. I’m thankful every time I get to listen to an episode, because I know I’ll be happy, I’ll laugh, cry, and have my mind blown. Woo woo! Many boats.

What a great podcast! Definitely one of the preeminent SW podcasts out there. Brian, Matt, and Caitlin are phenomenal at incredibly over the top and fantastic ambassadors for Star Wars!

Fantastic show so glad to have them back many boats!!

I’m so happy that I stumbled across the podcast just in time to binge Obi Wan. The reviews are so insightful, I thoroughly appreciate the forays into Canon and the introduction of characters and storylines from the comics and books I haven’t read. Listening to this podcast gives me a more complete understanding of each and every episode. I also appreciate the banter of the friendly hosts that never goes so far as to make a new listener feel like an outsider. Thank you also for the female voice - girls love Star Wars too! Keep up the great work!

I’m another long lost podawan whose found his way home since order 66, end of the last pod..edit…it’s pronounced zy knight…xi is is Greek letter

Jabba the Pod was like that out of the way restaurant that had the world’s best burritos that closed down. But then Return of the Pod shows up, with even better burritos. It’s like that.

I don’t know what that phrase means, but the words pop into my head all day long, so thank you for that! I can’t get enough of Brian‘s Ziro the Hutt; please continue to annoy everyone with him as often as possible. I love the pod, keep it up!

Long time listener here of the old and new show. You all do amazing work and I appreciate your positive Lens on Star Wars, I can’t even talk to friends about Star Wars content (everyone thinks they are a critic…). In an earlier episode this season 4 you shared someone’s top 5 bits. Mine is definitely you all telling Lars (and his leg) to get outta here! Fun fact: my first name is Lars and my Dogs first name is Tano (he’s 4, so yes I named him Tano before that was cool). So yeah I definitely burn my tongue on pizza every time. Since we both have first names that are last names of Star Wars characters I would appreciate any suggestions for the next puppy I’m getting next summer. Any good ideas?

I have been listening since the original show! I always enjoy y’alls insight and deep dives even if they go of the rail sometimes, lol. Glad you guys keep the show going and I look forward to many more seasons.

So Glad You Are All Back!!! I was heartbroken when “The Old Show” Died. I have tried dozens of Star Wars Podcasts and you are all HANDS DOWN the best! You guys helped me through some real tough stuff, and knowing that I could just listen to good friends talk about Star Wars and Marvel I know everything is gonna be okay. You guys are truly Legends and I am so happy to have you back!

Thank you all for the wonderful reviews, top notch production and witty conversation. Every time I listen, I’m laughing, sometimes shedding a small tear and just enjoying Return of the Pod. Matt, obviously the Grand Inquisitor is not dead. If Maul, Anakin, Palpatine, Leia and Fennec Shand can survive death, I think they will bring him back. I’m looking forward to seeing how Obi Wan finds his way back. Who will turn on the light for him? Peace! Many Boats

I can’t believe you guys have been back this long! I binged your original show and was sad to hear that it wasn’t being renewed. Today this popped up and I couldn’t believe my eyes that you guys are back! I am so excited to binge these new episodes! Many boats!

Look. Day in and day out I’m battling wampas and massiffs and porgs and I get my fair share of bumps and scrapes. When I turn on Return of the Pod it’s like a long, soothing soak in a tank of bacta. Healing, rest, and laughter are mine thanks to the crew of the Starbinger. Receiving anything and everything Star Wars as a gift of the Force, these noble hosts walk us thru the latest Star Wars shows and updates with absolute joy. They know their stuff, love Star Wars, and have a great time together. I’m so glad that the imperial probe droid is there to record it all for us! Thanks so much for a great show. Many boats!

Just want to say “thank you” to the three of you for helping to get a lot of us through this pandemic. The way you three interact is a joy and I am constantly laughing and smiling while listening. MTFBWY, always.

I was a devoted follower of “the old show” and just rediscovered this podcast again a couple of weeks ago. I have been binging to get caught up. Enjoying the recaps of The Bad Batch, and as I am rewatching Clone Wars right now, I’m anxious to get to my second time through Bad Batch. I love this podcast cast because I love, love, love all things Star Wars (and enjoy the MCU, LEGOS and action figures). I’m a Star Wars nerd and have been since I saw the first movie four times when it came out in 1977 (yikes, that is aging me). This podcast is a safe place, makes me laugh, and isn’t judgmental. There’s a lot of toxic stuff out there, and I won’t even go there. I teach middle school and have told some of my students who are Star Wars nerds about the podcast. Thank you for being a conversational podcast that makes people feel very comfortable, like we could just have a conversation with you. I’m looking forward to hearing your recaps of The Book of Boba Fett, Obi-Wan and Ahsoka when we get there (huge Aksoka fan). Also, any of the new MCU series. :) Many boats!!!

Many Boats

Great listen and break down of each episode of all Star Wars. Been listening since the beginning of the show that shall not be named. Gets me through my day. I encourage everyone to lock in on this crew and Engage on some fun. Many boats!!

I would like to formally put in a request for a party in celebration of the cameos in the recent episode of The Book of Boba Fett. Cobb Vanth, Luke Skywalker, Grogu, Mando(for the second episode), and many others but most notably, I would like to have a special toast in honor of two glorious women. Ashley Eckstein and Rosario Dawson for the reappearance of their shared character, my namesake and all time favorite, Ahsoka Tano! Honestly this was a shock to me, but it makes total sense. I especially loved her line “I’m a friend of the family.” I loved it so much because it made me think that she sees so much of Anakin in Luke. It’s amazing. And please check me out on Wattpad! I’m @LizAhsoka and one of my stories is a Star Wars Fanfic that I’ve been working on for a year and it’s still not done! But please check it out and support my work, I pour my heart and soul into every story and would love to see that pay off. Please check it out, @LizAhsoka on Wattpad, I’d love to see you there!

I get as much enjoyment hearing your episode breakdowns as I do watching the show!

Love the show, I’ve been a big fan since the last season of the old show! I’ve noticed Letterkenny references becoming more and more frequent on the show, especially, if not only from, Brian. With that being said, is Letterkenny going to be directly talked about on the show? At least in some sort of fashion or tangent that’s in every episode?
