This is the Way Podcast

If you've got toys to sell, this is the time of year to start doing it. The first Mando Monday came and went on October 26th and there was lots of style, but it sure felt like an infomercial. If you have about 35 minutes to spare, feel free to head over to the Star Wars YouTube channel for the first offering of the show, but Steve Loscalzo tells you about it, 50% off! The first episode of the seco...

Steve dared the depths of Jabba's Palace to rescue his podcasting friends Tim and Andy. It was a costly effort as Steve's computer did not record the final two-thirds of the show and they had to go back and recreate podcasting gold (or is it Beskar?). The great news is everyone was able to get together before the beginning of The Mandalorian's sophomore season for a preview of what they expect to...

It's been a long time since last we talked about our Beskar buddy and his charge, The Child. Now that Season 2 is less than a month from release on Disney Plus, Lucasfilm has put together our first trailer, picking up with the pair on a search for more money...I mean, Baby Yoda's parents...I MEAN THE CHILD! Yeah. Whew. As always, e-mail our hosts at thisisthewaypodcast@gmail.com or interact with u...

Steve troops on without Andy or Tim and finishes up the recaps of season one. It was a great season and season two will (eventually) be released if the world ever recovers from the pandemic. There may be more episodes of This is the Way, but this is probably it for season one of The Mandalorian, unless the guys can get together and chat about the news coming out about season two and talk about wha...

It's another special episode recorded long after the Rise of Skywalker graced theaters on opening night and gone are hosts Tim and Andy, so prepare yourselves for 51 minutes and 51 seconds of our host Steve giving you his unfiltered and sometimes meandering thoughts on not just the movie, but the direction of Star Wars under Disney. A lot has happened since December and since the confirmed leaks d...

Does anyone know how to get to Jabba's Palace? I think a couple of hosts are "hanging out" there. Host Steve goes "Solo" in this one, still with a cold, microphone too close to his hands (apparently), and he tries editing out as many coughs and sips of water as he can. "The Reckoning", the seventh episode of season one of The Mandalorian, might be the best yet, if...

Well, what can be said? The hosts keep trying new things and this episode has a little of everything, from a slight format change to a new microphone and recording position. One of those works out okay, the other, not so much. Find out which is which by listening to Steve, Tim, and Andy talk about The Prisoner which is the sixth episode of season one of The Mandalorian. Chapter 6 had a little bit...

It's a special episode recorded on the night of the Los Angeles red carpet, world premiere event for Rise of Skywalker and hosts Tim and Andy give predictions on what they think will happen in this final movie of the Skywalker story. Steve knows exactly what will happen because the leaks were confirmed, BUT he doesn't spoil anything for anyone, he just talks about what he'd like to see happen and...

How much fun can three guys have talking while watching Star Wars TV shows? Judge for yourself in the 12th installment of the This is the Way podcast. The Mandalorian Chapter 6 is the weekly episode that Steve, Tim, and Andy sit down and discuss. Turn on the TV and sync up the podcast with The Prisoner and watch along. If you have feedback, send it in to thisisthewaypodcast@gmail.com and let us kn...

A new show debuts for us with our "reactions" to the latest episode of The Mandalorian, which in this case is Chapter 6, The Prisoner , and Tim, Steve, and Andy all give their first impressions of the show. Feedback for our recap episode can be sent to thisisthewaypodcast@gmail.com and don't forget, the next episode is not Friday, but Tuesday, because...it's Rise of Skywalker week!

Feedback! The Hosts go over the first feedback sent into the show to the thisisthewaypodcast@gmail.com and then start talking about the most excitingly disappointing episode of The Mandalorian so far. Tim, Andy, and Steve all start the show, but only two are around for the close...who falls victim to sleep? You'll have to tune in (or fast forward to the end and cheat) to find out!

Hosts Tim, Andy, and Steve gather once again to watch another episode of The Mandalorian, this one entitled "The Gunslinger." Visits to familiar places, mentions, call backs, thematic echoes...this episode has so much to enjoy and nitpick and so does Chapter 5 of the show! Please listen along and marvel at how much better the sound is when three guys sit close together while watching a TV show in...

Hosts Steve, Tim, AND Andy discuss the fourth episode of The Mandalorian entitled Sanctuary and also give mid-season grades. This episode only became available after Chapter 5 went online, but it was because of technical difficulties during the edit, some of which may or may not be apparent in the final product. The guys continue to try new things to make the experience easy, but still fun for eve...

Maybe you have friends to sit down and watch with, maybe you don't. Either way, join us and watch together as we try to figur...

Hosts Steve and Tim talk about one of the best episodes yet in this young season of The Mandalorian. Steve apologizes, in fact, for just how much he talks! There is talk about just what The Sin might be, where The Mandalorian gets his inspiration for infiltration, and the charge of the jetpack brigade. Join the show by giving feedback at thisisthewaypodcast@gmail.com

Hosts Steve and Tim watch what may be the best episode of The Mandalorian just three episodes into the debut season on Disney+ and they talk about what they're watching. Forgive them, because they pause this episode a few times, but they promise not to do that again...or too much, at least. If you have feedback, you can share it with them via e-mail at thisisthewaypodcast@gmail.com and, oh yeah, H...

Hosts Steve, Tim, and regular guest Andy discuss Chapter 2. After a pilot episode that met expectations, the second chapter seemed to instill less enthusiasm, but it's still got great moments and it's still great television. Dive into deep meanings and listen to the theories about "The Child" with the guys and send your feedback to thisisthewaypodcast@gmail.com.
