Our #skytalkersmachete series returns with the classic sequel, The Empire Strikes Back! We look at a listener email about Anakin’s virgin birth, and then get right into things. First, we discuss the story of the film; then, we talk character journeys. We ask: why is Luke so angry on Dagobah, as per Yoda? What do we think of the Han/Leia relationship as it is here? And finally, we talk about how this fits into the machete order since putting The Phantom Menace in front of it. We answer a ton of Twitter questions: we get into deleted scenes and the film’s initial reception. All this and more on this episode!

Correction: Charlotte means Boba Fett, not Doctor Aphra, when discussing Vader learning about Luke. Also, we forgot to mention our dear Patron, Emma! We love you, Emma!

This week's episode is all about different visions of Star Wars. Charlotte and Caitlin sit down with Jim and Alex from the very awesome, super beautiful fan comic “A Star Wars Comic” to talk process, the state of comics, and their newest issue “Wild Space.” Then, we talk the resurfaced Padmé concept art from Revenge of the Sith, which depicts her with the knife. And, finally, we’d be remised if we didn’t freak out a bit about the latest news of the Untitled Han Solo Star Wars Story anthology film. Phil Lord and Christopher Miller are OUT and Ron Howard is in. What does it all mean? We flesh out some initial thoughts. As always, join us here for an in-depth discussion of all things a galaxy far, far away.

Then, Charlotte and Caitlin tackle the hard-to-talk about subject about Leia Organa’s presence in future Star Wars films. Should Leia be recast from Carrie Fisher? The question isn't as simple as one may initially think. Part 3 dives into how Leia is represented across canon: they talk comics, books, and her spot on Rebels. As always, join us for an in-depth discussion on our favorite space saga.
