Once you pop, the fun don’t stop. Force Toast and Pringles have that in common. 

In Episode 76, hosts Alyce and Laura have a lot of good money making ideas for Star Wars but no important Disney people want to listen to this… which is their loss and your gain, dear listener!

• Someone please hit the button that ends winter. That’s enough. We have had enough.  
• You know that old saying, when you run out of Busch Light, drink Diet Coke? No? Bueller? Bueller?
• BAE WATCH IS ON. EW has the scoop on how and why Lucasfilm decided to bring back Vader and just how Canadian Deborah Chow really is.
• There are still some tickets left for Star Wars Celebration if you’d like to re-live our 2019 drunken hotel party with us. Or like if you want to see celebrities at the convention or whatever.
• Forever Old Christopher Lloyd has joined the cast of The Mandalorian in the role of Baby Yoda. You heard it here first. This is a Force Toast Exclusive. We stan Uncle Fester.
• There is literally only one component of the bullet point above that is true.
• Bad Batch Booted to 2023? << That’s what we would use as the headline if we wrote this article. Alliteration is FUN, okay? But as far as the question, we’re guessing no.
• Establishing, once again, that we have good ideas and Disney could just hire us to do all the Star Wars marketing. 
• Everyone go shame Alyce for being behind on her reading
• This Shadow of the Sith excerpt is money. Read it. 
• A few more non-spoilery thoughts on Star Wars: Queen’s Hope
• Your lightsaber trivia is nonsense
• Now everyone clap for Alyce because she got a new job! Yay, Alyce!
• Pop

With today’s increased focus on diversity and inclusion, executives, chief diversity officers, and human resources leaders love to extol the value of bringing our authentic selves to the workplace. Still, for many African American women in corporate America, that platitude falls on deaf ears.

So, in this episode, we talk to Shayna Renee Hammond about the state of African American Women in the public and private sector.

Shayna Renee Hammond is a leadership and life coach who has coached and developed thousands of school and senior leaders within the education and non-profit sectors for 20 years. She is the Founder and CEO of Lead For Liberation (formerly known as Teach To Lead), a leadership development organization dedicated to guiding organizations, school districts, foundations, and communities to demystify and operationalize liberatory cultures. Through Lead For Liberation’s (L4L) support, schools and organizations across America have experienced unprecedented school growth and achievement outcomes, inclusive school and organizational cultures, and strengthened teacher, principal, and senior leader retention.

Inspired by the success of L4L and her calling to raise global consciousness, Shayna recently founded IndigoWomen, a coaching and consulting practice dedicated to creating spaces, methods, and conditions for Black women in leadership to thrive. In this capacity, Shayna coaches individuals and groups of Black women leaders from around the globe in a spiritually-inspired and research-based coaching methodology created by and for Black women.

In Episode 72, hosts Alyce and Laura are deeply concerned* about Black Krrsantan getting dehydrated. Despite their concern for him during the Recap on Tap segment, it was someone else involved with this recording who did, in fact, overheat and vomit that day. 

• We learned some fun stuff about what’s to come in The High Republic’s Phase 2 at the The High Republic Anniversary Panel on January 4, 2022

Hacking, phishing, and password managers, oh my.

In this episode, Trishul and Aaron discuss modern lifestyle security risks. Between hacking, phishing, and scamming, cyber fraud has become increasingly sophisticated. These days, it's almost impossible to distinguish between a legitimate email and an attempt to steal access. They share a few of their learning experiences and how password managers and two-factor authentication help to protect themselves and their clients. Cyber fraud is not going away any time soon, so never forget to be vigilant whenever you're online.
