Hokey Religion: The Star Wars Podcast

This episode is dedicated to the beloved Carrie Fisher. This episode of Hokey Religion accidentally turned into another entirely Rogue One episode. Join the boys as they have had time to let Rogue One settle and give some more in depth thoughts.

It's here, it's here, it's finally here! Rogue One hit theaters and Tyler and Michael were there on opening night. Join us as we discuss the film with wild abandon. BEWARE, we discuss Rogue One from start to finish. If you have not seen Rogue One yet we have provided a special treat of discussing "Gremlins 2" before traveling to Spoilerville.

Rogue One tickets finally went on sale! But this episode had to be recorded early! So we didn't have them yet! But we have them now! Good ones, too! This episode of Hokey Religion goes into the future of Disney's Star Wars, spin-off films, Tarkin eating mashed taters, and Luke's struggle with the Dark Side.

This episode, Michael wants to be a Beefman, or something about beef. I don't know. After taking a cold shower from all the beef-talk we discuss the continued lack of Rogue One tickets, the international Rogue One trailer, confirmation of young Chewbacca, and answer "who is your least favorite character?" in the latest appearance of "Ask Lobot".

This episode of Hokey Religion we get down to the important stuff, like an extremely weird flyer Michael found hidden behind a public bathroom mirror. We also happen to talk about the young Lando casting, Rey's parentage, new First Order troopers in Episode VIII, and whether Rey and Kylo had ever met before The Force Awakens.

Join us for more of our favorite new segment "What That Tweet?!", the resolution of an argument regarding whether it's "garbage smashers" or "garbage mashers", some Rogue One and Episode VIII rumors, and Tyler's takeaways from "Aftermath: Life Debt".

Michael Giacchino i scoring "Rogue One" now, Tyler is very excited. Michael asks, "WHAT THAT TWEET?!" And we get into the fact that The Death Star was never supposed to take so long to build, but that a "specific part" was the cause of the delay. Recorded in advance, directly after recording the previous episode, and fueled by booze. Enjoy!

The Jedi are dicks! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I'd rather you hear it from me. As a dead man once said, "It's true, all of it." Oh, the podcast episode...right! We get back into the Force/Midi-chlorian discussion along with wondering "how in the HELL does Owen Lars not remember C-3PO?"

Tyler and Michael discuss the call sign "Rogue One", the Erso family backstory, Luke Skywalker's academy, and lightsaber design choices in this week's Hokey Religion. Also, the Death Star can TOTALLY destroy a star...don't you DARE say it can't! Support the show @ patreon.com/hokeyreligion

So, why DOES everyone look like Tony Danza? It's not just us, right? Please, tell us it's not just us! Oh yea...this episode we use sounds to convey opinions on Galen Erso, Episode VIII happenings, Lando casting rumors, and the much maligned Episode VII 3D Blu-ray (that we all know we will be purchasing, because we can't NOT, but that doesn't mean we have to be happy about it).

In this episode we discuss the new information about the Rogue One planet Jedha, Rebels Season 3 premiere dates, Star Wars 3D release rumors, and whatever other nonsense came to mind.

THRAWN!! We go back to Day 2 of Star Wars Celebration Europe to discuss Thrawn's glorious return! We also cover official word on some Rogue One cameos, the much debated rumor of a Han Solo trilogy, the possible future of a live-action Star Wars TV show, and then we go as far off topic as possible.

This episode was recorded after Day 1 of Star Wars Celebration Europe, which means news and info! We talk about the very informative Rogue One panel, the Ahsoka panel, as well as a small bit of the beginning of the newly released "Aftermath - Life Debt". Our response to SWCE Day 2 = THRAAAWWWWN!!!!

Entertainment Weekly took a Rogue One dump that confirms it IS a film and best of all one with characters in it, including a character we've all seen before! We also discuss an interesting Episode VIII rumor that sparks a conversation about the future of The Force.

We've got John Williams rumors! We've got Episode VIII rumors! We've got Rogue One rumors! We've even got rumours with a U! Come on down to Crazy Tarkin's Trooper Shack, where all the things are stuff and all the stuff is CRAAAAZZZZY!

This episode the boys discuss Rogue One reshoots, awesome Episode VIII battle spoilers, and introduce a new segment called "Ask Lobot".

Are Luke, Rey, and Kylo all on Ahch-To together? Also, the boys both actually read Bloodline to completion! And don't worry, proper spoiler warning is provided before the Bloodline talk.

The boys talk about the fact that Plagueis is dead and how Mads Mikkelsen got himself into trouble. There were three talking notes and they went for an hour, enjoy.

We return with another exciting episode of Michael breaking. We discuss Rey's parent's AGAIN, costume spoilers, and some casting rumors. Aerate it. Warm it up. That's a 10!
