First off, on a scale from 1 to 10, how perfect are you at grilling shrimp? 

The answer: nowhere near as perfect as Ewan McGregor in the newest chapter of Alyce’s Obi-Wan Erotica. 

But we digress.

In episode 40, hosts Alyce & Laura kick* their innocent, little podcast out of the house in hopes that it will learn to support itself! It’s a lesson in tough love, friends. But in the meantime, let’s dive into what’s new in a galaxy far, far away!

• Our initial thoughts on the Doctor Aphra audio drama, based solely on this excerpt 
• Alyce recaps the Lucasfilm Publishing Panel from Comic-Con At Home

When 2020 began, did you ever consider that it would give you a Star Wars podcast that covers topics Hutts in hats, whether or not Galen Erso is a boob man, Beavis & Butthead impressions and birth control in Star Wars? 

The answer is no. No one could have predicted that. But here we are. 

Hosts Alyce & Laura bring* you all of this and more in Episode 38 of Force Toast! 

• What’s new in Quarantine Qorner
• The Movie Trivia Schmoedown’s Star Wars tournament continues!

Anyway, there’s not a lot of news, but hosts Alyce and Laura make* it work, bitch. Sorry, you’re not a bitch. That was mean. 

• You now know more about Star Wars: Squadrons than we did when we recorded this but we still have some maybe good guesses (?) as to what it's about.
• It’s 2020 and there’s a new point of view in town! It’s the 40th Anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back so IT gets a point of view and YOU get a point of view and YOU get a point of view! And a car!
• You don’t actually get a car.
