    Jun 8 2026
    This week, Jeremy, Kara, and Brownie bounce from Bluey and baseball complaints to Star Wars watch-order advice, Chopper convention dreams, Han Solo’s Pokémon team, and a Stuff Lab taste test. Along the way, Gramps weighs in on a skeleton Hot Wheels track, the chat keeps the wheel spins coming, and we somehow end up deciding the scariest animal to die to might actually be humans. We also reminisce about our favorite Star Wars experiences, ramble on with stories of the good ol' days, nerd out about current and upcoming Star Wars shows, books, and games, and talk a little bit about life.

    We're Still Talking About Palpatine | Rise of the Podcast #356
    May 18 2026
    This week we swerve into racing game nostalgia, Star Wars Galactic Racer, and the eternal question of whether Star Wars fans actually like Star Wars. We break down The Rise of Skywalker’s infamous “somehow Palpatine returned” problem, react to early buzz around the next Mando/Grogu adventure, and get weirdly excited about the Garfield Magic: The Gathering Secret Lair drop. Then we fully derail into Red Bull Crocs, chat-powered Star Wars Mad Libs, The Punisher, Big City Greens, and Christopher Lee.. We also reminisce about our favorite Star Wars experiences, ramble on with stories of the good ol' days, nerd out about current and upcoming Star Wars shows, books, and games, and talk a little bit about life.

  • An Evening With Oaken Hollow Games | Rise of the Podcast #353

    An Evening With Oaken Hollow Games | Rise of the Podcast #353
    Apr 27 2026
    Special guests Darrell and Phil from Oaken Hollow Games take over with a look at what they've got cooking at their independent game company. Between designing custom game mechanics, debating balance, and building a local scene, the conversation constantly veers into Pokémon team builds, questionable Star Wars logic, and the kind of tangents that somehow involve measuring things in bananas and wiener dogs. It’s game design meets Rise of the Podcast, and it's all nonsense. We also reminisce about our favorite Star Wars experiences, ramble on with stories of the good ol' days, nerd out about current and upcoming Star Wars shows, books, and games, and talk a little bit about life.
