This week, we had an absolute meltdown talking to actor and comedian Ajahnis Charley (they/them) about Sonic The Hedgehog. Did you know that there were exactly THREE BAJILLION characters in the Sonic The Hedgehog universe? We certainly didn’t. Google along as we learn about hedgehog/human romances, ‘chao’ fighting, the treasure trove (or bottomless pit) of Sonic fanfiction and how, in the end, it all comes down to US politics and capitalism. Plus, we jump on the ‘Release The Sad Sonic Cut’ bandwagon, and get our very own ‘sonic-sonas’.

We kessel-run you through the dark and light sides of the Star Wars universe; why the movies were such a pop culture force, where George Lucas succeeds and fails and how so much of the extended universe, including the Collectible Card Game, has impacted the canon. Plus, we tackle some hot, hot takes on Jedi ethics, prequel problems, Boba Fett’s cool factor, and what it will take to move Star Wars, and the fandom, into the future.
