Cringe-worthy SW moments, EA's Squadrons, and the future of movie theaters

Episode #163: THE MANDALORIAN Season 2 is a mere two weeks away and THE HIVE has the latest and greatest on all things Mando PLUS we wince at the Top 10 most cringe-worthy moments from the sequels, call EA as they double down on Star Wars in the wake of Squadrons, patiently allow Steve to whine that Rey should be a Kenobi while Scott complains more about THE LAST JEDI, fret about the future of movie theaters, and pine for the Han in carbonite WAFFLE MAKER.

Mando, Lego, Hasbro, and Presidential Debates

Episode #162: Although this week’s U.S. PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES were on the boys’ collective mind this week they found some room for great Star Wars talk including the latest rumors on The Mandalorian Season 2, Star Wars Legos and Hasbro’s Razor Crest, Disney+ Group Watch and the Obi Wan series, Nathalie Portman’s possible return, and how the Marvel Cinematic Universe will fare without actual cinemas. National treasure Mark Hamill once again scores the SWTOTW and Dave presents Scott with his very own Star Wars Choices.

A Traveler's Guide to...Star Wars film titles?

Episode #158: Turns out the Star Wars film titles ARE ALL WRONG and we’re (a couple of weeks late with this story) here to rundown the madness for you along with a quick book review of Eloc Throno’s Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge: Traveler’s Guide to Battu, a look at Hasbro’s new Millennium Falcon, and our take on the stunning layoffs at DC Comics, along with another edition of Scott’s Cantina Corner and Dave’s first ever SW Tweet of the Week.

The Mandalorian walks into Scott's Cantina Corner...

Episode #157: THE MANDALORIAN’s fifteen Emmy Nominations is way more than THE WRETCHED HIVE PODCAST has ever received but nonetheless we are thrilled for Kennedy, Favreau, Filoni, and the gang over at Lucasfilm! Celebrate Mando’s success with us as we debut SCOTT’S CANTINA CORNER, share the highs and lows of COMICON @ HOME, and get nostalgic with Robert Zemeckis’ brilliant BACK TO THE FUTURE.

The Wretched Hive: July 3, 2020

Episode #155: We’re reunited (and it feels so good) as Stevie B returns from his stint in carbonite and your favorite Star Wars nerds cover that and lots of “other stuff” including Disney+ and Comic-Con @ Home, the incredible contributions to fandom by the late great CHARLES LIPPINCOTT, and why LOST is still a great watch. PLUS we’ve got a camtono of the incessant chatter you’ve come to expect including an impromptu STAR WARS CHOICES and more blathering on about THE RIGHT STUFF, TRUE LIES, and a plethora of random references from our pop-culture mental holocron that few under age forty understand. In other words, it’s a standard episode.

The Wretched Hive: June 20, 2020

Episode #154: STAR WARS CELEBRATION has been postponed and Stevie B is still hanging in Jabba’s Palace frozen in podcast carbonite but THE HIVE carries on with the same high-quality and low-brow humor you’ve come to expect from four guys armed with adult beverages and microphones. Feel free to call the show hotline and leave a message about anything you want, so long as it has to do with Glenn Frey: 562.455.4483.

The Wretched Hive: June 8, 2020

Episode #153: Refusing to unfreeze Steve from his hibernation in carbonite (or is Steve simply refusing to come out?) and with ANTHONY DANIELS filling in as guest host, Greg, Scott, Dave, and Niko deliver another stellar episode covering the latest in Star Wars news and other stuff alongside the typical array of bad jokes you’ve come to expect. Have a comment or suggestion for the show, or maybe just want to complain about Niko? Leave a voice message at 562.455.4483.
