With the SAG-AFTRA in full swing, they have asked podcasters (and others) to not promote struck work (or work that would have been struck if made today), and in solidarity with the strike we have decided to do just that. That means for the time being we won't be covering TV or movie news and reviews. Luckily Star Wars is so much more than that and today we are giving our recommendations for Star Wars reading to help fill your summer reading lists. 

Talkin’ Tauntauns is hosted by AIPT’s Jim Lehane and Nicole Herviou. Join us as we discuss the latest news in Star Wars, as well as our thoughts on the books, comics, TV series, and movies from a galaxy far, far away.
