Last week we spoke to Jordan from Wookieepedia about how he was first introduced to Star Wars, how he started working with Wookieepedia and what some of his favorite entries are. One of them was a very obscure reference to a book called MONSTERS AND ALIENS FROM GEORGE LUCAS!So this week, for the episode between episodes, we decided to explore Wookiepedia more and find some of our favorite obscure Star Wars characters, places and events, including the punk band that supports Emperor Palpatine, how a Gonk droid would be used in our own world and the Phantom Menace character Dave was obsessed with before the premiere of the movie!
Plus, Matthew Freeman is back with a new reading from his newsletter Ahch-To Baby entitled THESE THINGS ARE CANON!
