What has released since last year's Star Wars podcast episode 255?
Star Wars Visions
Ending of Mandalorian Season 2
LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special
Bad Batch
Does Audible count?
Star Wars: Thrawn Ascendancy book 2 and 3 were this year
Star Wars: The High Republic
Upcoming releases you're excited for?
The Book of Boba Fett
Ahsoka when it finally comes out
Mostly because it should have a live action version of Thrawn
Parker

Hyr0n
Star Wars Visions episode 9: Akakiri
Praise/Rant
Lego Star Wars - Could you actually build…
The stupidest spreadsheet ever
TLDR: The only thing in LEGO SW Universe that could produce enough LEGO to build Death Star 1, is Death Star 1
Chris
Technology in Star Wars
What fictional technology do you think would make the most immediate impact on your life? How would you integrate it into your own work?
Anti-gravity, repulsors (floating stuff)
Vehicles are the obvious cool application
Manufacturing?
I worked in a foundry
The heat from the hot iron and the refractory sand constantly wore down the bearings in the conveyor system
If things could just float it would be amazing
Droids
How does anyone actually program these?
In The Mandalorian it seemed like it wasn’t a simple task to reprogram IG-11
Anakin “built” C3PO but did he really build it or assemble it?
In the series they say to “wipe the protocol droid’s memory” it seems like whatever the tech is it is easy to wipe memory but not easy to change programming
Hyperspace
Outside of exploration and colonization would this really make an immediate difference in day to day life
Power Density
