Ep 105: Do These Corpses Spark Joy?

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

In Episode 105, hosts Alyce and Laura don’t have* a lot of Star Wars news to discuss, so it’s another Recap on Tap heavy episode of Force Toast: A Star Wars Happy Hour!

• Real Housewives, but it’s not real and no one’s a housewife
• All aboard the Caravan of Corrections!
• After 146 days, the WGA strike has ended!
• Could Star Wars benefit from writers rooms in its live-action series?
• Has KalluZeb been canonized?
• Your Shin Hati theory sucks. Please read the novel “Phasma.”
• Maybe don’t create a significant other using AI and then listen to it when it tells you to unalive someone (via usnews.com)
• The High Republic Phase 3 is upon us! Recap on Tap kicks off with the comic Shadows of Starlight #1
• Ahsoka Part 7: Dreams and Madness is where we fell in love with Ezra Bridger
• A brief interlude (rabbit hole) on the New Republic senate, chancellor, galactic republic, voting
• In Ahsoka Part 8, Thrawn’s toxic trait is hoarding corpses, but he’ll be damned if they won’t be organized in a neat and tidy formation
