It's a rather zany episode of the podcast this week. Jason is about to go on Vacation with his daughter Reese to Disney World, but wanted to get a show out before he left. Jason answers a solicitation on the web page Fiverr.com and pays some random guy $5 to talk Star Wars with him for 30 min. it actually turned out to be a very interesting conversation. In the 2nd half of the show we play an outtake from the Radio Drama Retrospective where Scott Ryfun goes back to the 1980's rumor mill and talks about the speculation that "the other" Yoda spoke of was actually a bright purple colored, winged relative of Yoda, full of the Force. It's an interesting story for sure!

Since 2014, Dan and Jason have hypothesized about how The Force Awakens would play out. Finally they get back together to talk about what made it in the film from the rumor mill, what didn't and what they liked and didn't like. They discuss the soundtrack, new characters, and McGuffins that should have been.  We suggest the view go back and listen to previous Spoilerverse episodes to see how close or just how far off we were on our speculation. Some of the rumors were down right crazy.  Stay tuned for future Spoilerverse episodes where we cover rumor and news from Rouge One And Episode VIII. Until then, May The Spoilers Be With You!
