Ep 102: Morthra Thorgan

This episode of Force Toast was recorded during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. The projects discussed in this episode would not exist were it not for the hard work of the writers and actors currently on strike. We stand in solidarity with the guilds fighting for higher compensation from streaming and protections against the encroachment of artificial intelligence. Support the striking guilds here and here.

In Episode 102, hosts Alyce and Laura push* their #MakeMorthraCanon agenda on all of our unsuspecting listeners. Laura isn’t the only shipping enthusiast on this show anymore!
