Jason and Gabe are talking about one of their favorite Star Wars things ever, Dark Horse Comics' amazing and vastly underrated Star Wars Tales comic series. It was an anthology series that would feature everything from stories about the main heroes to thrilling tales of Yaddle or George R. Binks, Jar Jar's sea captain father.

A not so long time ago, Jason & Gabe had the great idea of watching the Ben Burtt penned Droids animated series primetime special, The Great Heep. Having loved it and talked about Master Mungo Baobab in just about every Blast Points episode afterwards, they decicded that it would be awesome to go ahead here and do a full commentary for the entire Baobab arc of four Droids animated episodes. Almost ninety minutes later, they are wondering if they made the right decision. Join them this week as they struggle to know what's going on, figure out just who is talking, how this all makes any sense, do bug man voices and struggle to not drift into the forever sleep.

Take a trip back to 1992 as Jason & Gabe take a look at the fascinating world of Star Wars QVC specials!

There host and super fan Steve Bryant would interview guests like Steve Sansweet and in the episode we look at, Mark Hamill. In between selling Star Wars 15th anniversary sweatshirts and Star Wars film reel suspenders, Mark talks about the prequels, calls from Star Wars fans and he gets a call from a guy named Chip he went to high school with AND says if he's be ever interested in being in a NEW Star Wars movie!!!
