Star Wars Curmudgeons
Cur·mudg·eon [kərˈməj(ə)n] noun a bad-tempered person, especially an old one. We celebrate two legendary curmudgeons who brought the characters of Han Solo and Qui Gon Jinn to life: Harrison Ford and Liam Neeson. Both have been on the interview circuit lately, both have been looking back at their Star Wars careers, and both are sometimes grateful and sometimes salty about their experiences in a galaxy far, far away. We listen to recent interview highlights from the two to get their perspectives as now-older gentlemen. We report on fresh news about the casting of Matt Smith in STAR WARS: STARFIGHTER, shooting later this year, and we look forward to the 50th anniversary of STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE with news of a theatrical release happening in 2027. But what version will it be? Plus, listener feedback gets us looking at what and who are responsible for the Sequel Trilogy going “off the rails” and more!

Brendan Wayne: The Man Behind The Mandalorian Mask
The actor wearing Din Djarin’s helmet is not always Pedro Pascal. In fact, most of the time it’s Brendan Wayne, grandson of the legendary John Wayne. Making his RFR debut, Brendan Wayne joins us In The Cantina to talk about his experiences on the set of THE MANDALORIAN, his life as an actor and the connection he feels with his famous grandfather’s legacy. He discusses a medical emergency that temporarily prevented him from playing the role, working with superstars like Sigorney Weaver and the late Carl Weathers, and he provides us with excitement as we look forward to next year's feature film, THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU. Plus, we empty out the STAR WARS IN POP CULTURE inbox, we recap a recent RFR hangout and more!
