Welcome to another episode of Scoundrels Special Edition of Starships Sabers and Scoundrels. This week, SCubedPod focuses on episode seven of season three of Rebels: "The Wynkahthu Job." Hera reluctantly agrees to allow the crew of the Ghost to assist Hondo salvage an Imperial cargo ship in orbit around Wynkahthu. However, he concerns grow when she discovers Azmorigan, the vile gangster, is involved. When Chopper activates the ships power, the ship's sentries activate. Then things go from bad to worse as the droids attack. This is a somewhat in-depth review that contains spoilers.

First, Dennis and Taxus discuss the sentry droids. Dark Forces fans might recognize these droids. Did the classic video game inspire the droids of this episode? In addition, are these Legends droids worthy representatives in the new canon?

Next, how does Ezra Bridger handle a perceived slight from Hera? In early episodes from this season, Ezra struggled with the influence of the dark side. However, in recent episodes, he appears to have overcome that temptation. Is he resentful that Zeb was put in charge of the salvage operation? Will this cause a rift in the team? Or, is this just a distraction for this episode?

In addition, why are the Rebels pursuing proton bombs? This isn't the first episode where the Rebels tried to acquire these bombs. Are they part of a larger plan? Will viewers see them again?

After that discussion, Hondo may be a fan favorite, but is he used well in this episode? Has he contributed to Rebels in a meaningful way? What does the future hold for him.

Finally, each of the guys share some of their favorite moments from the episode. Azmorigan is a presence in this episode, and he has at least one comedic line.  Dennis and Taxus discuss this and more.

Thanks for listening to this Scoundrels Special Edition of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels.

The march to Rogue One continues. The movie is less than a month away. In addition, Revenge is said to be a dish best served cold, and this week, the guys are serving a little revenge for Thanksgiving. Therefore, on episode sixteen of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels, we take a look at what Revenge of the Sith means for Rogue One.

There are plenty of developments in this week's news. First, Dennis and Taxus Two discuss the Rogue One 360 experience released by Verizon. What do the guys think? Next, Lucasfilm released a new behind the scenes featurette for Rogue One. What, if anything, was revealed about the making of the new movie? Third, Rogue One: Catalyst was released this past week. Dennis and Taxus offer their early impressions of the new Rogue One tie in novel. Finally, Marvel announced a new miniseries featuring a fan favorite Sith Lord. Who is it and when does it debut? Hint: he has horns and tattoos. Tune in and find out.

Up next, Darth Taxus recently had the opportunity to attend Dallas Fan Days. Although this convention was light on Star Wars, there were still elements from the galaxy far, far away to be found. Taxus shares some interviews in this week's show.

Rogue One may be a prequel to A New Hope, but is also the sequel to Revenge of the Sith. What if anything does Revenge of the Sith prepare audiences for in Rogue One? Dennis and Taxus discuss in part two of this week's Hyperthetical.

Another episode of Rebels aired this past weekend. RetroZap.com's Courtney Martin stops by to talk "Iron Squadron" with the guys. Can three kids take on the Empire by themselves? Or, does Ezra have to lean on his experience to provide guidance to these young freedom fighters?

Our favorite Wookiee and frequent "guest" returns to debut a new culinary adventure. Somehow, Dennis was persuaded to go along with this. Will he regret it?

As usual, it wouldn't be an episode of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels, if the guys didn't address some listener feedback. Of course, this means there is another edition of "Silence Fools!" This time, a loyal listener shares thoughts on the recent Ahsoka novel, and Dennis and Taxus react.

Have a great Thanksgiving! We are thankful that all of you have joined us for sixteen episodes so far. Once again, thanks for joining us for episode sixteen of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels.

With Rogue One only weeks away, now is the perfect time to talk super weapons in the galaxy far, far away. After all, what is Star Wars without a technological terror or two or three? What makes a good super weapon?

Before the guys can talk super weapons, Dennis and Taxus bring up some recent Star Wars news. First, the saga of George Lucas's Museum of Narrative Art continues. Two sites are under consideration and designs for each site have been released. What do the guys think? Next, it is no secret that Battlefront has a sequel in development. Recent comments by Electronic Arts point to a release date. When is it? Third, another entity recently acquired THX, the audio system pioneered by George Lucas in 1983. What does this mean for cinematic sound if anything?

Up next, it is election day in the United States. Up for a little political discussion? No? How about some political debate Darth Taxus style? The Most Interesting Sith in the Galaxy has something special in store for you.

After politics, the guys examine some of the super weapons of Star Wars. Whether it is cannon or Legends, Star Wars has always felt the influence of technological terrors. Some of them are impressive. Others are over the top, and not necessarily in a good way. Dennis and Taxus discuss some of their favorites and some of the more ridiculous entries.

Another episode of Rebels aired this past weekend. Therefore, Dennis and Taxus discuss "Super Commandos." Sabine and Ezra escort Fenn Rau to Mandalore to find trouble with the Mandalorians. How will they get out of this mess? In addition, what does this episode teach about Sabine and her past?

As usual, it wouldn't be an episode of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels, if the guys didn't address some listener feedback. Of course, this means there is another edition of "Silence Fools!"

Thanks for joining us for episode fifteen of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels.
