What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I love listening to this podcast! Very entertaining and very knowledgeable of all things Star Wars! I’ve learned a lot about the more obscure lore elements that I don’t know as well and these guys are hilarious to listen to regularly! Thanks for all of the great and clean content! I’ll be listening to the new podcasts weekly!

cpbcwebman · May 2026

These two are some of the most cheerful and positive starwars geeks I’ve had the pleasure of listening to. If you’re looking for that starwars fix or wanting to know and understand some of your favorite starwars shows this is the place. Dathomir

Scrub King7 · May 2026

Alex and Mac are a lot of fun to listen to! They go really deep in the lore for people like me to nerd out, but they also make it really accessible for people who have read every book or watched every show #dathomir

Guyler S · May 2026

Probably my overall favorite Star Wars podcast. Super positive vibe, but Mac and Alex are not afraid to criticize SW stuff constructively and thoughtfully—firm but honest, and no one is getting exiled to Dathomir. I appreciate the focus on the shows and lore. If you mainly want podcasts about general fandom, cosplay, etc., you may want to look elsewhere. But if you want superfans bringing their love to everything new happening in Star Wars, this is the podcast for you.

Rhaegar · May 2026

I was enjoying this podcast recapping each episode of Andor. I started at episode six after listening to another podcast recap the first five episodes. Out of nowhere during episode nine recap they just straight up spoiled the finale of season one with no warning.
