During the lead-up to last week's announcement of the High Republic (series? era?), I started to speculate and stew over what kinds of things I want to see explored in that time period. Now that we have some details I thought it...high time to devote a whole episode to this latest bit of news. Will the era be a sort of "Jedi Christendom" where the life of the Order and faith in the Force permeates Republic society? Will it relate well to our complex, nuanced, real-world history of Medieval and Reformation Western Europe and its transition into Enlightenment Secularism, or will it present a caricature of that history governed by that secular perspective? Lastly, what do the Jedi truly fear, and what might the Nihil's monkeying with hyperspace have to do with it?

Also, Artoo finally got off his perch and returned to co-host with me! I hope he enjoyed it!

Thanks for listening, and MTFBWY.
