Force Insensitive - A Star Wars Podcast

A long time ago in theaters far, far away four nerds got swept up by one of the greatest pop culture waves in cinema history. Now, as adults with a lifetime of fandom under their belts they get together to discuss the mythology, characters and business of creating STAR WARS! Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join the wretched hive of scum and villainy as we take the low road to resistance….

We admit, we got a little carried away with the Free Form shows, so this week we have another one! However we do shape a rough format for the rest of the year so at least we have that going for us. Contained within these 100 minutes you will find some good ideas, some bad ideas, some funny ideas, some terrible ideas, and testicular abrasions? Don’t ask. Just get Fit Kisto to go in on our Fonzie Scheme and all will be forgiven. Turn...

This week we decided to switch things up by having only two of us host the show without a clear topic in mind. Oh wait, this feels familiar. I think we’ve done this before. Oh well, here is two hours of your life you will never get back. Do we talk about Star Wars? Sure, there is some talk about our favorite tertiary characters and a whole lot of nonsense and much more! Why don’t you take a ride on the water snake and attempt to ta...

Just what you wanted, another Free Form Force Insensitive episode. Only this time it is half as good! Well that is if you like all four hosts of the show, but perhaps for some it's twice as good. Try to figure out that math, genius. We mostly focus on the unfortunate news about the cancellation of Season Two of The Acolyte, but we manage to get into some other Star Wars discussions and not Star Wars discussions. You don’t want...

It is another edition of Free Form Force Insensitive! This week we talk about the Skeleton Crew trailer as well as the new Andor and Mandalorian and Grogu footage from D23. We also find a Star Wars galactic map that we have fun exploring and we get some great episode format suggestions from listeners! All that plus an appearance by Big Bossk Man at the Gungan Bubble Tea Hutt! Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, a...

Never has an episode title explained so little and so much all at the same time. This week we have a freeform discussion show that ebbs and flows from Star Wars to all manner of inane BS. There are lots of serious questions with not-so-serious answers and vice versa, but ultimately we end up finding some modicum of insight and fun. Before listening to this episode take a stroll over to the Narkina 5 Retirement Home to visit Marsha ...

Everyone loves a good fight right? Whether it’s with your enemy, your friend, or even with your family. Star Wars has a history of some phenomenal fight scenes and we will attempt to compile the best ones throughout the history of the franchise.

It is time to put The Acolyte to bed as we wrap it up with an improper wrap up show! We attempt to talk about the season in totality, the things we liked, even some things we didn’t. We have predictions for a potential season 2 and much, much more. Be careful in the time between when the scary Wookiee hunts at night and when the Sol Man makes the bidet-nuts because that is when Rimmy Williams and the Nook and Cranny Nanny will come...

Another season of live action Star Wars has gone as quickly as it arrived. This week we discuss the finale of The Acolyte with S1.E8: The Acolyte. We get some resolutions, new questions, and some surprising cameos! Did this series stick the landing or did it end up in a steaming pile of bantha poodoo? Getting answers from us can be akin to bleeding a kidney stone but you too can master the long slender Ozempic fingers and learn how...

We are hurtling through this season like debris from the great hyperspace disaster destroying a planet. In the penultimate episode S1.E7: Choice we get to see things from a different point of view. While many questions are answered, there are still plenty of mysteries left to reveal. We finally get to see Kelnacca in action, but we also get some much needed Master Indara. Don’t end up with Nuna egg on your face, come along with us ...

Woah, did Star Wars just get its hotness back? On S1.E6: Teach/Corrupt there is much to discuss. We do our best to stay on topic but it is incredibly hard to do so when you can cut the tension with a throbbing saber. We dominate the easter eggs and tie up lore bits back to legends continuity to try and connect all the dots. Take a deep dive with us and try not to get Papa Palpitations or you might need to wear the Cortosis body con...

Well well well what do we have here? In The Acolyte S1.E5: Night we get about 30 minutes of non-stop hot Jedi/Sith action! There are force pulls, Jedi Kabobs, a big reveal, a high body count, and a Parent Trap situation! This one had it all! We break down the episode to discuss all the little details and some deep lore references. Before listening you may want to consult Little Orphan Swami who has been living Ren free in your mind...

The mystery continues as we delve deeper into The Acolyte and discuss S1.E4: Day. We talk more about toxic fandom and the reasons why it exists, before diving deep into some of our theories about who the Sith master is - one of the guesses might surprise you. This week we are also graced with the presence of the absolute worst Jedi in the history of the galaxy, Ki-Adi Mundi. Let’s make a Sith by committee by macking the saber and d...

Another Acolyte episode is delivered to us on a boat that has navigated the murky, tumultuous sea of “fan” boy tears. This week we discuss The Acolyte S1.E3: Destiny. Yes it was divisive if you care about the opinions of some, but we manage to find a lot of good things to talk about, debate, and theorize. Meet us down at the Bunta Tree so we can all watch the latest episode of Jamie Farrscape. Turn up your headphones, dial back you...

The more things stay the same, the more they change! We’re back with a fresh coat of paint for Season Five and we have a brand new live action Star Wars show to discuss on our season premiere episode! We will breakdown and dissect the first two episode of The Acolyte with S1.E1: Lost/Found and S1E2: Revenge/Justice. We will also talk about the show’s influences, the new species/tech/planets, and our suggestion on how to keep Carrie...

For our final episode of the neverending fourth season we preview the upcoming High Republic era live action show, The Acolyte! We’re excited for the first ever non-Skywalker live action series. This show will make or break the direction Star Wars takes in the future but we’re excited for the direction it appears to be heading in. We will discuss our hopes, dreams, predictions, and the importance of this show as it relates to futur...

This week brings an end to Tales of the Empire and Barriss Offee’s story. We discuss the final two episodes and the entire season as a whole, and offer up our thoughts on which Tales of show we liked better. But that’s not all. If you tune in now you’ll find out just what kind of alien has grey pubes on green skin, why you shouldn’t shame the shaman, and you may even learn the definition of a googly-eyed freshie!

Our coverage of Tales of the Empire continues on as we discuss episodes 3 and 4. In hindsight we probably shouldn’t have done the final Morgan Elsbeth and the first Barriss Offee episodes together, but what’s done is done. And what was discussed was discussed. There is blowing bubbles with jesus juice, psychedelic smears, and flaccid droopy side horns. Turn up your headphones, dial back your sensibilities, and join the wretched hiv...

This year May the 4th brought us a new series that we begin discussing as we get prepared for our next live action series, The Acolyte. This week we talk about the first two episodes of Tales of the Empire which focus on Morgan Elsbeth’s origin with the Empire and more importantly Thrawn. Although, this episode felt like it was missing a little something… a severe lack of drugs, edibles, and innuendo. Is that good or bad, you decid...

This week's episode is bittersweet because The Bad Batch has come to an end. While this season was the strongest of the three we still feel there was a lot left on the table. Ultimately was this a fitting ending to the season and to the series as a whole? We discuss that very topic, as well as theorize about what may become of an older Omega joining the Rebellion. Hopefully that doesn't result in her ending up on Rule 34!...

This week we discuss the penultimate episode of The Bad Batch with S3E14: Flash Strike. As we talk about it, we can’t help but wonder how they can possibly wrap this entire series up in just one more episode. We also hear a story we wish we hadn’t - let’s just call it the yambag massacre for lack of a better term. Just remember Omega and the Kids did it all for Tanuki!
