Force Insensitive - A Star Wars Podcast

Send us a text or voice message Star Wars is back! We’re ecstatic to have new live action Star Wars with the premiere of the brand new series, Skeleton Crew! We discuss, dissect, and even throw in a few early theories about the show as we tackle the first two episodes; S01E01: This Could Be a Real Adventure and S01E02: Way, Way Out Past the Barrier. When listening to this episode we have an import...

Send us a text or voice message Do you hear that? It’s the sound of live action Star Wars just on the horizon. Starting next week we will finally get to talk about new Star Wars and it’s about damn time! This week we preview the upcoming Skeleton Crew series by talking about all our hopes, dreams, cameo wants, and the bare minimum we need to satiate our starving appetites! Turn up your headphones,...

Send us a text or voice message Are you ready for something completely different? You’re going to get it whether you’re ready or not. This week we discuss our ideal Star Wars Holiday Dinner complete with guest list and menu. There are lots of surprises on both. Then we talk about what we’re most and least thankful for in Star Wars. That’s not all, as an extra added bonus we will run through the ex...

Send us a text or voice message Nearly 40 years to the day George Lucas unveiled a new cinematic vision upon the world. A vision that would change the small screen forever and may even give the Holiday Special some competition for the worst ideas he’s ever had. We are referring to the one and only Ewok films; Caravan of Courage and Battle For Endor. These films have it all. They have plenty of fur...

Send us a text or voice message This week we wrap up our Star Wars Spooktacular by discussing the British horror comedy series Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace! This one has an interesting Star Wars connection that might not be obvious. If you like slow-motion running, possession, eyechildren, poor acting, bad editing, and hilarity you’ll need to tune in for this one! Turn up your headphones, dial back...

Send us a text or voice message Whoever said War is Hell, likely never tried doing a weekly Star Wars podcast. They might change their tune a little. Either way, this week we explore war and hell as we discuss the 2002 film, Deathwatch. This one has a more modern Star Wars connection, but that doesn’t detract from the insanity of the performance or the quality of the film! You might want to feed t...

Send us a text or voice message On the next installment of the Star Wars Spooktacular aka Star Wars Spooky Dookie we will head back to the year it all began, 1977. No this isn’t to talk about Star Wars, but instead we will discuss another well known franchise as we tackle The Exorcist II: The Heretic. There is a Star Wars connection and if you’ve seen the film it will be pretty obvious what it is....

Send us a text or voice message When is a Star Wars Podcast not a Star Wars Podcast? You’re about to find out! This week kicks off our Star Wars Spooktacular October. We take turns picking a Star Wars adjacent horror film and first up is Rocky’s choice. He picks a film with Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, what could possibly go wrong? It might be more appropriate to ask, what could possibly go...

Send us a text or voice message This week we kick off our 2024 Star Wars Spooktacular month by discussing our format for October and announcing the first Star Wars adjacent film for discussion on next week’s show! Yes Star Wars has been host to many horror legends so this shouldn’t be too difficult, however you may be surprised by the first pick. Listen to this episode… if you dare. We also find o...

Send us a text or voice message The year is 2015 and the spectacle known as Star Wars has returned. There are sold out theaters and lines out the door. There is nostalgia and legacy characters we know and love. There are also cool, new characters. And the story… oh the story… well it was ok but we intend to improve upon it with the final act in our Project Retcon series. This week we tackle the se...

Send us a text or voice message How does one improve a masterpiece? It's actually quite challenging. We attempt to do just that as we continue Project Retcon, this time examining the OG Trilogy and trying to come up with ways to make it even better. While there may not be quite the sweeping changes as in last week's episode, we still manage to come up with some decent ideas that might im...

Send us a text or voice message You wanted the Star Wars, you get the Star Wars! This week we kick off our new segment, Project Retcon. For our maiden voyage we start all the way at the beginning… well the beginning of the story. We each pitch an idea that would improve the prequel trilogy. Somehow this all flows incredibly well together and we manage to stay on topic for almost the duration of th...

Send us a text or voice message 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...

Send us a text or voice message 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 m...

Send us a text or voice message 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...

Send us a text or voice message 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...

Send us a text or voice message 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 t...

Send us a text or voice message 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. Come on a journey with us to the bowels of Bespin, make sure to bring a weapon because you never know when you might need...

Send us a text or voice message 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...

Send us a text or voice message 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 bu...

Send us a text or voice message 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 I...

Send us a text or voice message 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 ge...

Send us a text or voice message 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 co...

Send us a text or voice message 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-A...

Send us a text or voice message 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...
