We're back!  After a break for a weekend to decide the direction to take our podcast we got a good ol' banter session for you guys.  Let's go!

WARNING:  This podcast episode does not reflect the political views or ideals of the hosts.  This episode was recorded to bring to light specific issues that are seen from their points of view and should not be taken at face value.  Disney's control over the Star Wars galaxy seems to have come full circle with the recent release of the television series' on Disney+.  What changed and why?  Should the same hope be kept for future shows and movies?  Let's banter!

Part 2 of our Mandalorian mini-series.  Sit back and enjoy the banter!

It's finally here; our first episode on the Mandalorians!  This series will include shorter episodes as part of an incremental series.  We have been waiting a long time for this moment and are happy it's finally come to fruition.  Sit back, relax and enjoy a cup of Jawa juice while we banter!

Welcome back Dreshdites, we're back after a few weeks of a break!  Lightsabers; we all know them and we all love them.  There's so many different types of lightsabers, be it the hilt design, crystal colour or just how you use them.  Let's dive right in!

Welcome back!  Today we talk about some of the most renowned force sensitive species and their cultural backgrounds.  Light side or dark side is not just a point of view, it's nature vs. nurture.  Let's banter!

We're back!  Summer vacations out of the way and bringing more content for you folks!  This week we delve back into the Chose One and Anakins prophecy, but this time with a bit of a brain buster.  Enjoy!

Good day fellow Dreshdites!  This week we are bringing another random episode highlighting some of our favourite things about different franchises.  Enjoy the banter!

Our first comparison episode!  Join us as we delve into the differences and compare the Galactic Army and Navy of the Republic and the Imperial Amry and Navy.  With whom would you stand in a battle?  Let's get it!

We've talked about weapon systems, force users and some galactic droids and coalition forces.  Now let's get in to some of the naval capabilities of the Sci-Fi realms!  From frigates to fighters and cruisers to battleships, let's banter!

The Star Wars galaxy experienced multiple Sith empires spanning thousands of years.  Each of these empires had one thing in common; they all fell from within.  Join us as we go in depth to discuss some of the possible reasons for their failures!

Blasters...so uncivilised!  Each universe brings its own unique handheld weaponry in the form of a blaster or a cannon that it's hard to have a favourite.  Today we are going to hit on some of the more common ones.  Let's banter!

With technology and video games advancing so quick, it's hard to keep up with all the new games and genres.  What will the future hold for Science Fiction and Fantasy video games?  This episode is featuring our friend Brendon, a fellow Sci-Fi and fantasy enthusiast.  Be sure to check out his podcast Conjecture and Lecture for some great content!

Droids, Robots, VIs, AIs and computers.  Sci-Fi galaxies experience machines in a different way, but one thing is for sure among across the board of all Sci-Fi galaxies; machines are not to be underestimated!

Fantasy, Sci-Fi, and video games.  Just a disorganised episode shedding a little light on some things that motivate the Dreshdae Cantina and some random facts about us.  Enjoy!

Given the amount of power that some characters, force sensitive and non, have in the Star Wars universe it's only natural that their power came from something other than themselves.  It's time to talk about relics and how they changed the galaxy!

We're back!  It's been a while I know, but we're back bringing more banter and galactic randomness to you guys!  This week we're talking about different things it would suck to be in the galaxy.  Let's roll!

Lightspeed! There are so many possibilities when it comes to travelling from planet to planet or from one end of a galaxy to another end.  Each science fiction universe has it's own way of travel so where should we begin?!  Let's go!

Governments in the Star Wars galaxy are an intricate and integral part of the universe and galaxy as a whole.  Without the unification of star systems, the galaxy would collapse under each planets individualities or another vast empire would attempt to subjugate them all.  Let's roll!

I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!  This was the first episode that Phillip and I recorded last year in 2021.  It was kept on the back burner for a special when we needed it most. No topic, no particular idea or direction, just ye old banter in the Dreshdae Cantina.  Enjoy! 

Every faction has some abilities and powers that they view as unworthy or abhorrent.  Though there are many force powers in the Star Wars universe, in this episode we focus on a few abilities from both light and dark users that are the most prominent in the novels and movies.  Let's go!
