Your hosts are Tim Van Autreve, show runner, eternal optimist, and life-time Star Wars lover; Jennifer Van Autreve, sci-fi nerd, bombshell, and Star Wars novice; and Josh Mason, the Star Wars expert and ultimate critic. Together they discuss the new media coming out of Disney-owned LucasFilm.

The new Star Wars canon includes all the Star Wars movies, The Clone Wars cartoon, The Clone Wars movie, Star Wars Rebels, new Marvel published Star Wars comic books and any media coming out in the future. We also cover Episode 7, Star Wars: The Force Awakens at great length. For those curious, we all truly feel that Han shot first.

Obi-Wan Kenobi Episodes 5 and 6
The SWNU crew breaks down the last two episodes of the Obi-Wan Kenobi mini-series. Then we heard from the listeners. Be sure to send in more letters. We read them. Sorry for the delay, we had a technical issue whereby I thought I'd posted the episode but it hadn't been processed yet. So no file. Anyway, hope ya'll are doing well. Thanks for coming. See you later. Bye.

Obi-Wan Kenobi Part 1 and 2
We are back.  It's fitting that Obi-Wan decided to come back at the same time that we did...since he's such a fan of ours and all. We discuss the new Star Wars show, Obi-Wan Kenobi's debut episodes. Jenny gives a four-hour synopsis on the first episode and Josh does ten minutes on episode two.  After we tear into the Deborah Chow-directed show, we talk about Star Wars Celebration 2022 and Flea.

166 | This Podcast Just Got Order 166'd
Just kidding. We're moving. If you're looking for an episode where people talk a lot about Star Wars, this probably isn't it. Check out one of the previous 165 episodes for that. This episode is really just three friends that haven't seen each other in 6 months chatting it up and having a good time doing it.  Nerds Unite Studios is officially moving out of its wasp infested teepee. As we move into the new Van Autreve Manor, there will be yet another pause in the podcast. BUT. Josh and I are building a recording studio in an unfinished piece of the new house. It'll be optimized for streaming, climate controlled, rectangular prism shaped, and so sound proofed, anyone entering it will only be able to hear the beating of their own hearts in their ears.  Anyway, this is the end of Season 1. Season 2 starts with the same format as before except video and regular podcasting again.  (Chris, we will need a schematic for the new studio, asap.)
