  • Bonus: The Acolyte Finale: Karaoke Edition
    Jul 23 2024

    Get in, losers, we’re going to Brendon. I mean, Brendok!

    In the episode formerly known as Episode #121, hosts Alyce and Laura are* PLAGUED [get it?] by technical difficulties AGAIN, this time in the form of a lost recording.

    • We had a whole news segment, but Alyce’s computer shat the bed in the middle of our recording, so now it’s a big bonus Recap on Tap of The Acolyte episodes 7 and 8, feat. Fun With Autocorrect!
    • The dark side has better clothes and cooler people…
    • …but the light side has Vernestra’s awesome new dress (also lol at this)
    • Darth Plagueis is the Fairy Godmother of Star Wars

  • Ep 120: Vern & the Poof Patrol
    Jul 9 2024

    Disclaimer in the off-chance this is your first episode of Force Toast: we had a technical issue (user-error) so the audio quality of Laura’s track isn’t up to our usual standards. Sorry, and know that we have resolved the issue so all future episodes will sound like our prior episodes =)

    In Episode 120, hosts Alyce and Laura are* definitely NOT listening to or taking to heart all the ways Gen Z thinks Millennials are cringe™ now.

    • We don’t know a whole lot about Skeleton Crew yet but details are starting to emerge! (FalconBricks via SWNN)
    • A Rogue One favorite is set to appear in Andor Season 2 (via ThePlaylist.net)
    • This Collider interview with Leslye Headland following The Acolyte’s 6th episode was some interesting info and insight
    • Speaking of The Acolyte, there is now High Republic Phase III concept art of Vernestra Rwoh!
    • Updates on THR Phase III novel release dates (allegedly)
    • It’s all about The Acolyte in this episode’s Recap on Tap! Plus, more fun with Apple’s Acolyte Autocorrect! Come for the dark path to a maybe-mutated Sith Lord in Episode 5, stay for Vernestra’s Poof Patrol in Episode 6.
