    Update: Podcast Consolidation with PHOTOR
    Sep 29 2021
    Hello friends! it's just Luke this time, giving an update on the future of the show. long story short: with the announcement of a Knights of the Old Republic remake, Kelsey and I will bring our old Star Wars podcast, A People's History of the Old Republic, back from hiatus and we can't maintain 2 of these at once. however, it's not all bad news since we will still be doing episodes about the politics of Star Wars with additional news about the KOTOR remake and publish all previous Thunderous Applause episodes under the PHOTOR name. we will also be continuing the Patreon under the PHOTOR name as well but have suspended it for the time being while we get everything sorted out and come back from this hiatus sometime in October. so, if you like Thunderous Applause, please follow A People's History of the Old Republic wherever you listen to podcasts. there's already 85 episodes of content waiting for you! thank you so much for listening to Thunderous Applause and please follow us at PHOTOR!
