In this episode, returning from hiatus, our hosts Connor and Alex kick things off in 2026 with a survey of Vision Season 3. They review each individual episode and analyze its themes, tone, plot, and how it works as a broader piece of Star Wars fiction. Season 3 of Visions is notable for containing direct continuations from Season 1, as each episode in Season 3 was produced by a Japanese animation studio. Generally, the hosts find a greater amount of timeline and tonal similarities between episodes (including many main droid characters) and end with discussing what they want next out of the Visions series.

This episode contains content from, and may contain spoilers for, Visions Seasons 1 through 3.

This episode dives into a staple of science fiction, faster-than-light travel, and explores how this subject is handled in the Star Wars universe. The hosts analyze both the established traits of hyperspace (the need for precise calculations, the speed of the travel, the aesthetic of the stars smearing into lines in a cockpit) as well as how hyperspace is used as a plot device. To hear more about how hyperspace allows such a huge galaxy to feel well-traveled, about the mystical aspects to hyperspace, and to hear more about the majestic purrgil, listen now!

Join us today for the first Pride episode of Talking Star Wars! Alex and Connor take this time to explore the evolution of queer representation in the Star Wars universe: from the potential subtext of C-3PO and RD-D2 in the original trilogy to the wide range of trans, non-binary, and queer individuals present in the High Republic, the hosts discuss the importance of representation even in (or especially in) a galaxy far, far away. The episode also touches on potential negative stereotypes, the erasure and censorship in the early 2000s in characters such as Juhani, and the growth of queer-coded characters in visual media in couples such as Vel and Cinta in Andor.

This episode contains content from, and may contain spoilers for: Episodes I through IX, Solo: A Star Wars Story, The Mandalorian, The Clone Wars, Ahsoka (novel), The High Republic (phases 1 through 3), Skeleton Crew, Doctor Aphra, Knights of the Old Republic (legends), The Acolyte, Andor, Queen’s Shadow, From a Certain Point of View, Visions, Jedi: Survivor, Temptations of the Force, and the Thrawn: Ascendancy trilogy.
