We Have To Talk About Dash Rendar

Join two queer 30-somethings every two weeks as they read (and occasionally watch) the Star Wars Legends oeuvre in publication order! They discuss the merits of the old extended universe and enjoy (or don't enjoy!) these pulpy sci-fi novels. And, eventually, they will talk about Dash Rendar. (We Need To Talk About Dash Rendar is our mirror-universe podcast, about a different franchise. We don't know why they picked that name.)

  Episode #3

  The Regional Manager Of The JDTs (Star Wars Book One)

  Aug 10, 20261h 47mS2

  Bad morning to you, our evil listeners! In this episode of We Have To Talk About Dash Rendar , hosts Cammy and Baja Blast read Star Wars: Book One , which collects The Glove Of Darth Vader , The Lost City of the Jedi , and Zorba The Hutt's Revenge . They're even dumber than those titles suggest. There's a whale vacuum! We had a lot of fun. These books sucked very bad. A real "sure whatever who gives a shit, let Peggle 2 make calls" of a series. Topics of discussion include: Batman Black , The Social Network , names for babies with three eyes, Tom Bombadil singing Oompa Loompa songs, Archie Goodwin's naming conventions, Corky Baxter, Porgie Tirebiter, laser pistol earrings, Grand Admiral Grunger, Monzaemon, Doonium the baby Phobium, Snoke Loroan, Timothy Leary, A Canticle for Leibowitz Baja Blast (who also did our cover art) can be found online at chalkpastelmancer.tumblr.com Cammy can be found online at sophia-goodnight-poetry.tumblr.com and her other podcast Swords Against Cerebus can be found on gruppeshrike.net We Have To Talk About Dash Rendar 's meager web presence is at talk-about-dash-rendar.tumblr.com We Have To Talk About Dash Rendar' s theme music was composed by Avery Crimes

  Episode #2

  You Were Brief And Rather Incoherent (Dark Force Rising)

  Jul 27, 20261h 32mS2

  Well gang, this may be the last episode of We Have To Talk About Dash Rendar you ever listen to. Not because we're ending, we're not gonna stop for at least 11 years. No, it's because Vhrischtka and Jakhe Ph’eyke kind of hated Dark Force Rising by Timothy Zahn. We'll respect you if you don't want to follow us any longer. But the characters are uncompelling and don't believe in anything, the story is grounded in racism and sexism, and Timothy Zahn is no Steven Erikson. Topics of discussion include WOE.BEGONE , Malazan Book of the Fallen , Radiata Stories , taxation on exotic biomolecules, Joruus Peterson, Kerobos Lord Satan, Skyewalkers: A Clone Wars Story , Dengar (again), hardcore crinbid fanatics, cool birds, novels about the military draft. Editors note in case it's unclear: The reason that the treatment of aliens by a text can be racist is because aliens are a racialized Other and it reflects the author and society's consideration of racialized Others, not because it's specifically racist against, say, the Noghri.

  Arcing Like A Gray Rainbow (Heir To The Empire)

  Jul 13, 20261h 42mS2

  <p>Season Two of We Have To Talk About Dash Rendar is here, as Ecumenical Datte and Liturgical Moruss begin our campaign to make enemies of the entire Star Wars fandom by not liking Heir To The Empire by Timothy Zahn very much! Reading an actual novel was truly a balm after the absolute slog that was the Ewoks, but, well, unfortunately it's racist and the character writing is mostly flat. We do absolutely love Mara Jade though! Where'd this noir femme fatale come from anyway?! Return in two weeks to be even further alienated by our thoughts on the...

  We Will Speak No More Of This Now (Ewoks Comic)

  Jun 29, 20261h 31mS1

  <p>Sweet release has come for us. Season One is over, and we're done with the Ewoks era of Star Wars – or at least, we will be after this episode. Hosts Nerdley and Fungo discuss the Ewoks Comics, including the three short stories published in the UK exclusive Ewoks Annual. Well, technically. We spend more time discussing the overall problem with the Ewoks era than we spend discussing the specific problems with this comic. Which are plentiful, by the way. To sum it up, we're angry about children's media being so disrespectful of children. You need to write to the to...
