Episode #7: TWH Episode 7 is here the same day Star Wars Episode VII is available for digital download. Coincidence? Sure. Serendipitous? Absolutely! In this episode we battle technical glitches, power outages, head colds, and each other (in the final round of the Bad Star Wars Battle). We'll get you caught up on Star Wars news, and suggest Ray Park's next role as a Star Wars actor, although we would never say it to his face. Because Ray Park is a bad ass.

Episode #6: The Wretched Five is back! This epic episode is packed with Star Wars news, Rogue One Reconnaissance, and round two of the Bad Star Wars Battle! Parental warning: this episode is rated PG-13. Possibly NC-17. Paid off some academy members to avoid the 'R' rating. It hurts Mace...it hurts.
The Wretched Hive Podcast
The show was born in the summer of 2015 when Greg, Steve, Niko, Dave, and their wives and girlfriends met at Barley Forge Brewery in Costa Mesa, California (Scott was absent that day, tending to the physical effects of consuming one too many Zombies the evening prior). The usual conversation, debate, and low-brow comedy centering around Star Wars ensued. Steve had the idea of starting a podcast, and much like the throbbing hangover in Scott's cranium, the idea hung on for dear life in his mind, refusing to leave. The five recorded their first episode under the original show title, "The Second Order", on January 20, 2016.
