Welcome to episode 80 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: Vanity Fair on The Rise of Skywalker. On this episode, The Scoundrels are breaking down everything we learned from Lev Grossman's article and Annie Leibovitz's pictures in Vanity Fair about The Rise of Skwyalker. Plus, there is some news about upcoming Star Wars projects as well.

Star Wars News

Before the Vanity Fair discussion, the Scoundrels have two primary news stories to cover this week:

• After the release dates for the next three Star Wars movies were announced last week, Star Wars fans now know who is in charge of those films, and
• The Mandalorian and the Cassian Andor series aren't the only live action Star Wars shows coming to Disney+.

Dennis, Jay, and Darth Taxus have several opinions on what Bob Iger's announcements about upcoming movies and live action television shows on Disney+ mean.

Annie Leibovitz's The Rise of Skywalker photos in Vanity Fair

The talk of the Star Wars world for the past week has been all about Annie Leibovitz's photographs and Lev Grossman's article about The Rise of Skywalker in Vanity Fair. Now, the Scoundrels dive in and discuss:

• The Knights of Ren,
• The involvement of Jordan in filming the movie,
• Keri Russell's character: Zorri Bliss,
• The introduction of Richard E. Grant's character,
• Billy Dee Williams returns to Star Wars,
• Kylo Ren and Rey's Force connection,
• Jannah and Finn riding on orbaks,
• How Carrie Fisher was integrated into The Rise of Skywalker,
• Luke Skywalker's role in The Rise of Skywalker, and
• So much more.

Silence Fools

All the coverage of Annie Leibovitz's photographs from Vanity Fair, leaves little time at the end of the episode. Normally, and episode of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels ends with listener feedback. However, Scoundrel Nation was a little quiet in the past week. Therefore, Dennis and Jay ask Taxus about his impressions of The Mandalorian panel from Star Wars Celebration Chicago. Darth Taxus delivers big time.

The Scoundrels hope you enjoy episode 80: "Vanity Fair on The Rise of Skywalker" We hope you will consider subscribing to Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome to episode 74 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: Lightsaber Duels Part 2. The Scoundrels have their work cut out for them as they determine the best lightsaber duel from the Star Wars movies. However, there is news to get to first.

Star Wars News

Most of this week's news focuses on Star Wars Celebration Chicago. The Scoundrels discuss:

• The first announcement of additional guests for Celebration that includes Ahsoka Tano herself, Ashley Eckstein,
• A second round of guests for Celebration that includes the original wookiee and everyone's favorite twi-lek,
• A third round of guests for Celebration as foretold by a dark disturbance in the Force, and
• The potential for K-2SO to show up in the Cassian Andor series that is in development.

The Lightsaber Duels - Part 2

Once the news is done, the Scoundrels return to their lightsaber bracket. Episode 73 saw the conclusion of the first round. In comparison to the decisions in episode 74, those were easy. The Scoundrels start by finding the best lightsaber duel from each trilogy and then conclude with naming a champion. There is plenty of discussion and debate on this episode, and picking the best lightsber duel isn't easy.

Silence Fools!

Episode 74 ends with another edition of "Silence Fools!" In this edition, the Scoundrels:

• Respond to feedback from their page on the RetroZap Discord server,
• Discuss the results of the last Twitter poll from episode 73, and
• Propose a new poll for episode 74.

Welcome to episode 68 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: Kenobi Quesions. On this episode, Dennis, Jay, and Darth Taxus discuss the hero of the prequels: Obi-Wan Kenobi.  There are a few other matters to get to first.

Star Wars in the News

After a slow news week in episode 67, the Scoundrels have plenty up for discussion this week. They pour over the news of a live action Cassian Andor series. Then they discuss casting news for The Mandalorian. Also, they discuss announcements of authors appearing at Star Wars Celebration Chicago. Finally, they end the show with news about the Galaxy's Edge additions to Disney Parks.

Kenobi Questions

Obi-Wan Kenobi was the original mentor to Luke Skywalker and the hero of the prequel trilogy. In addition, he was a general and key figure in the Clone Wars. On episode 68, Dennis, Jay, and Darth Taxus discuss this legendary Jedi Master. Kenobi had a fluid view of the truth and point-of-view. Do the Scoundrels agree with his reasoning? In addition, his padawan, Anakin Skywalker, isn't the only one with a love interest in his life. Could Obi-Wan have gone the same route? The Scoundrels discuss this and much more in this week's "hyperthetical."

Silence Fools!

Welcome to episode 65.3 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: The Triple Dark. On this Scoundrels Special Edition, Jay and Dennis continue the discussion of Resistance with a look at the second episode of the series.

The Triple Dark

"The Triple Dark" begins with Kaz continuing to make his own way on Colossus Station. Kaz is eager to begin his mission for a spy for the Resistance. His initial efforts at spying meet with less than desirable results. However, he overhears a communication about the Triple Dark, and when he learns it is a storm later, he begins to put things together. Can Kaz successfully aid the Aces in defending Colossus from a pirate raid?

During their review of "The Triple Dark," Dennis and Jay take a critical lens to the show. What is currently working for Resistance? Where does it falter. In particular, Dennis and Jay identify a couple of tropes they found annoying. Plus, is the tone more similar to Looney Tunes than Star Wars in places?

Despite the faults of "The Triple Dark," this episode does have some high points. Kaz is developing, even if slowly. Plus, there are some great looking ships in this episode. Download episode 65.3 and get the full take from the Scoundrels.

Welcome to episode 65.1 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: The Novel Bracket Part II. On this Scoundrels Special Edition, Dennis and Jay shake off the absence of Darth Taxus, who is neck deep with real life responsibilities, and begin the Scounrels' coverage of the latest Star Wars animated series from Lucasfilm.

"The Recruit"

Episode one of The Resistance begins with pilot for the Republic Kazuda "Kaz" Xiono and his wingmates pursued by a First Order TIE Fighter as they attempt a delivery of top secret intel to Poe Dameron of the Resistance. Before long, Kaz finds himself a new recruit in the fight against the dangerous First Order. Poe assigns him his first mission as a spy on Colossus Station on the ocean world of Castilon. Soon thereafter, Kaz is caught up in a community of racers on this haven for smugglers as he looks for First Order operatives.

Dennis and Jay dive into "The Recruit" and discuss Kaz and his new allies Yeager, Torra Doza, Tam Ryvora, and Neeku. Does Resistance hold up compared to The Clone Wars and Rebels? How does the action come across on the screen? Is this show truly aimed at 8 year olds, or is it appealing to all audiences? The Scoundrels discuss these questions as they work through the first episode of the series.

On this Scoundrels Special Edition, Dennis and Darth Taxus dive into the recent issues of Darth Vader and discuss the "Burning Seas" story arc. The Emperor grows tired of the galaxy speaking with multiple voices and seeks the elimination of the Imperial Senate so that only his voice dictates the will of the Empire. However, making such a change isn't so easy. Therefore, he sends an Imperial fleet to Mon Cala to make an example of the rebellious planet. In addition, he senses the influence of the Jedi in Mon Cala's affairs. Naturally, he sends Darth Vader and his Inquisitorious to handle the situation.

Indeed, there is a Jedi involved. Dennis and Darth Taxus discuss whether this Jedi lives up to the Jedi ideal. Or, has this Jedi adopted methods the Jedi Council would frown on? What are the motives of this Jedi, and do the ends justify the means? Plus, what memories does returning to Mon Cala surface for Darth Vader? In addition, what do these stories say about Vader and Grand Moff Tarkin's relationship? Finally, Tarkin has interesting thoughts on what it means to be an Empire.

Welcome to episode 41 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: Legendary Luke. Everyone has heard the tale of Luke Skywalker. But, how well do you really know Luke's story? We'll find out in this episode. However, there is some Star Wars news, listener feedback, and more to cover first. So, get ready for episode 41: Legendary Luke.

Recent Star Wars News

Just when it looked like it would be a short news week, the international trailer for The Last Jedi arrived. Then, it was outdone during the World Series when the TV spot "Awaken" debuted. Dennis, Jay, and Taxus discuss the trailers plus a bit of Rebels casting news.

That's So Wizard!

Jay has another edition of her monthly fashion and lifestyle segment "That's So Wizard!" In this edition Jay talks about the latest products from Her Universe and new Star Wars vacuums from Samsung. Finally, she gives our her Wizard award for November.

Legendary Luke

So, you think you know Luke Skywalker? You've seen all the movies. In addition, you have read a few comics and books. Do you think you can spot a Luke story that is "merely" a Legend? You are about to find out in this episode's Hyperthetical. Ryder Waldron from Idiot's Array joins the Scoundrels to swap a few stories of Luke Skywalker. Some are canon, and some are Legends. Think you know your stuff? Then put your knowledge to the test and see if you can spot the difference.

Silence Fools!

Once the discussion is done, the show turns to some listener feedback in "Silence Fools!" In this edition, Dennis, Jay, and Taxus read an email about a future Star Wars celebrity appearance. Then they highlight a few developments in the Star Wars community.
