"The Platform Classic" begins with Yeager responding to a summons from Captain Doza. Yeager's brother, Marcus Speedstar, has arrived on the Colossus for the biggest race of the year: the Platform Classic. Despite Doza's request, Yeager initially refuses to compete against Marcus. However, he soon changes his mind. Marcus, though, has his own issues, and when a Guavian Death Gang arrives, the stakes for the race are raised.
On this review of Resistance, the Scoundrels discuss the similarity between Tam and Marcus's stories. They also take a look at some of the elements from other corners of the Star Wars galaxy including "The Five Sabers" and hyperfuel.

Welcome to episode 68 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: Kenobi Quesions. On this episode, Dennis, Jay, and Darth Taxus discuss the hero of the prequels: Obi-Wan Kenobi. There are a few other matters to get to first.
After a slow news week in episode 67, the Scoundrels have plenty up for discussion this week. They pour over the news of a live action Cassian Andor series. Then they discuss casting news for The Mandalorian. Also, they discuss announcements of authors appearing at Star Wars Celebration Chicago. Finally, they end the show with news about the Galaxy's Edge additions to Disney Parks.
Obi-Wan Kenobi was the original mentor to Luke Skywalker and the hero of the prequel trilogy. In addition, he was a general and key figure in the Clone Wars. On episode 68, Dennis, Jay, and Darth Taxus discuss this legendary Jedi Master. Kenobi had a fluid view of the truth and point-of-view. Do the Scoundrels agree with his reasoning? In addition, his padawan, Anakin Skywalker, isn't the only one with a love interest in his life. Could Obi-Wan have gone the same route? The Scoundrels discuss this and much more in this week's "hyperthetical."
As with every episode, episode 68 ends with another edition of "Silence Fools!" For listeners new to Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels, "Silence Fools!" is the feedback and listener participation segment of this show. On this week's show, they Scoundrels discuss last episode's Twitter poll and issue a new poll.
Thanks for tuning into episode 68 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: Kenobi Questions. We hope you enjoyed this our discussion of the venerable Jedi Master.

The latest episode of Resistance has Yeager waking Kaz up early for a special salvaging job. However, that was just a cover story for a rendezvous with Poe Dameron. Once reunited, Kaz and Poe take to space with some X-Wings. Before long, they receive a distress signal. When they investigate, they find a freighter attacked by pirates. Closer inspection reveals a rampant...Kowakian ape-lizard! Can they recover a survivor of the pirate attack and get off the freighter?
This episode clearly sets up further adventures and stories on Resistance. What is the survivor of the freighter up to? What is the plan for Colossus Station for the pirates and the First Order? Also, who knew that Kowakian ape-lizards were a thing in Star Wars?

Things were fairly quite in the realm of Star Wars news. However, Harrison Ford is receiving an award, and Star Wars Celebration Chicago announced their first guest. The Scoundrels discuss these stories in this week's coverage of the news.
NOTE: The news of the new live action series featuring Cassian Andor broke the day after the Scoundrels recorded this episode. Although it is covered briefly in this episode, we'll cover it in more depth on episode 68.
Since Disney acquired Lucasfilm, Star Wars became a staple of the holiday season. However, that tradition is on a temporary hiatus in 2018. With no new Star Wars film to look forward to next month, Dennis, Jay, and Darth Taxus revisit the Star Wars movies of the last three Decembers: The Force Awakens, Rogue One, and The Last Jedi. They revisit the hype and promotion of the films leading up to their release. They'll reflect on some of the twists and surprises from the movies as well. It is a fun trip down memory lane, so join the Scoundrels for the fun.
Silence Fools!, the listener feedback portion of the show, features an email from a listener as he shares some posters related to Maul: Lockdown. The Scoundrels also cover episode 66's Twitter poll results and propose a new poll.
Thanks for tuning into episode 67 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: Star Wars of Decembers Past. We hope you enjoyed our look back at the recent Star Wars movies in December.

The latest episode of Resistance finds Kaz trying to help but making mistakes. His inexperience as a mechanic comes through when he inadvertently breaks a compressor Tam and Neeku need for the Fireball. Kaz vows to replace the part, but he doesn't have the credits. However, fate seemingly intervenes when Kaz discovers two children on Colossus station with a sizable bounty on their heads. Kaz sees an opportunity, but he doesn't understand what he is getting into. Things get more complicated when Captain Doza summons Kaz for a meeting and the First Order, lead by the gold-armored Commander Pyre, arrive.
This episode further the intrigue around Captain Doza and the First Order in Resistance. In addition, Kaz continues his development as a spy for the Resistance. This episode raises the question: is Kaz naive or just inexperienced? Also, is he worthy of the praise he receives from an officer of the Resistance? Dennis and Kendall discuss this and more on episode 66.2.

The latest episode of Resistance begins with Colossus Station rationing power due to a fuel shortage. Without power to work, Kaz, Tam, Neeku, and BB-8 visit Aunt Z's for drinks. Before long, Kaz meets Hype Fazon, the Rodian Ace pilot. Hype is an old acquaintance of Tam, and he invites them to the High Tower. Kaz can't pass up on the opportunity to spy on the First Order, which just arrived on the station with a fuel shipment.
This episode sets up a lot of possibilities for Resistance going forward. Is Captain Doza in league with the First Order? Kaz's skills as a spy improved, but is he capable of succeeding? Why does the First Order want Colossus Station so badly? Dennis shares his observations on these points and more during his analysis.
