Brews and Blasters: The Star Wars Party

Let's have some fun! In between the games, action figure reviews, food talk and PLENTY of Star Wars, we also get into the origins of the Brews and Blasters name and how Chris and Joe's friendship began. PLUS: Winter Hat Guy, stuffed burgers and more, you're about to hear stories, lore and a lot of laughs. Let's GO, Warheads! The Star Wars party starts NOW! It’s time for Brews and Blasters.

We’ve been threatening it for years, and this Halloween week is the perfect time to make it happen. You know it. You love it. You’ve never heard a commentary track like this! This week “Movies the Podcast” is back, and Chris and Joe watch the 1987 classic The Monster Squad. We learned a lot of things with this screening, mostly about Burger King, Pepsi and dynamite. Oh yeah, and Stephen King rules. Let’s go, Warheads! The Monster Party starts now! It’s time for Brews and Blasters.

This is an episode for theories and speculation, and man, do we have a few! Our Star Wars' imaginations are firing on all cylinders and our tongues have been sufficiently loosened up by vodka, so we just get into it all! From Vader's castle, to Star Wars Resistance, to Black Series Zuckuss, to more thoughts on the Mandalorian, you better believe we brought it. Let's GO, Warheads! The Star Wars party starts NOW! It's time for Brews and Blasters.

Well, Joe's gone keto and Chris is getting ideas, and over the course of this mammajamma, they discuss everything under the sun going on in Star Wars right now. Time to grab a hunk of pepperoni, some provolone, and dig in! So grab a stick of pepperoni, snap off that top and enjoy! The Star Wars Party starts NOW! It's time for Brews and Blasters.

Well, we tried to do an episode about Star Wars and Halloween, but it turns out one of the Brews and Blasters hosts doesn't really love Halloween so we start spiraling...and end up in a great conversation about Gary Kurtz, the long-lost Making of The Empire Strikes Back documentary by Michel Parbot, and a lot more. Toss in some stellar email, a killer Oppo Award and an interstellar NeedEm GotEm, and you got a stew baby! And a podcast episode. Whatever.

So, Chris and Joe get into the Brews and Blasters studio and Jon Favreau drops a mammajamma of an announcement with THE MANDALORIAN! We dig in, wildly speculate and get hyped in true Brews and Blasters fashion. Then, we start digging into the characters of Star Wars Resistance, and Joe has some thoughts about Kaz you might not have heard yet. And of course, NeedEm Gotem takes a look at Moloch from ALL sides. The Star Wars Party starts NOW! It's time for Brews and Blasters.

It's been a while since we've had a down and dirty discussion all about action figures, and a lot has changed in the world of collecting in the meantime. Chris and Joe look at what it's like to collect in this second half of 2018, what figures we're chasing, and our predictions for the hobby as we look ahead. And as important as this conversation, or more--we discuss the eating habits of Robert Shaw, give out some Oppos and more. The Star Wars Party starts NOW! It's time for Brews and Blasters.

We just checked in to see what condition Star Wars Episode IX's condition was in. Turns out, it looks pretty rad so far. We go through the full lowdown on the production as it stands, dig into some casting announcements, and make more than a few insane predictions. Hey, we called what would happen to Snoke months ahead, so anything's possible right? Then, we turn our eyes to the sun! Not literally, but we get really psyched up about Zartan-style action figures coming to Star Wars.

It's a simple question, but not such a simple answer: how many Star Wars films have you ever watched in a 24-hour period? And, is it possible anymore to watch them all in succession? We ponder this and other topics in the world of Star Wars, like Kenner Variants, dipped soft serve ice cream, Ahmed Best, Frank Sinatra and more. You might wanna buckle up baby, because the Star Wars party starts NOW! It's time for Brews and Blasters.

What's up, Warheads! We have returned! Brews and Blasters is back and we are ready to talk Star Wars because it's been too long! Miss us? We missed you. And you. And you, too! We jump right into recent news with Star Wars Resistance, #CloneWarsSaved, and a lot more! Plus, hear about how an attempt to buy both Yak Face and Blue Snaggletooth in one day was thwarted, and our thoughts on who should be making ranch dressing.

Well, George Lucas is still blowing minds and freaking us out with talk of a MICROBIOTIC WORLD...whatever that means, and he finally revealed what is up with the Whills. So, what is the whill of the Force after all? We have a few ideas! It's our last show before the babies, everyone but don't worry--we WHILL be back in just a few weeks! Let's go, Warheads! The Star Wars party starts NOW! It's time for Brews and Blasters.

Chris and Joe are here to party! After smashing a couple of chimichangas, the guys pour a little bourbon and get down to business! We’re celebrating Ralph McQuarrie’s birthday. We’re talking about new Star Wars video games (Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order). We’re talking Celebration Chicago, Hayden Christensen, Chicken in the Pot, and SDCC Exclusives. You know what time it is, so let’s GO, Warheads! The Star Wars Party starts NOW! It’s time for Brews and Blasters.

On this episode of Brews and Blasters, we keep on digging into the amazing Easter eggs and expansion of lore featured in Solo: A Star Wars Story: The Official Guide by Pablo Hidalgo. Then we open up a few figures with the return of NeedEm GotEm and there’s a few surprises—if you know where to look! Then our listeners ask some amazing questions and provide the title for this week. Let’s go, Warheads! You might wanna buckle up, baby. It’ time for Brews and Blasters.

So, Solo: A Star Wars Story is an amazing movie, but the box office didn’t live up to expectations. So what! Believe it or not, we think there’s a silver lining to this, and we’ll get into it in this episode. We’re excited to continue our discussion on Solo, and everything about it. Why does this movie work? What does it get right? And, what do worms smell like? Let’s GO, Warheads! The Star Wars party starts NOW! It’s time for Brews and Blasters.

This is where the fun begins! Chris and Joe are fresh out of the AMC Theaters Fan Event for Solo: A Star Wars Story, and are ready to dig into everything! Listen in for our first reactions as we go scene for scene and gush about how much we love this film.
