Here is this week’s Podcasts in Review.

The 602 Club: Episode S15 gets off to an odd starts as they criticize The Force Awakens for not having enough world building and they question why the books didn’t come out sooner. They speculate on the delays for Aftermath: Life Debt and Bloodlines, they go on about the importance of ancillary material, and finally they get to the main topic of the show, Greg Rucka’s book Before the Awakening. They cover each of the three stories, what they did and didn’t like, how the stories rank with each other, and overall they each give it a big thumb’s up. With the literary focus in this one, it’s definitely worth a listen for book fans.

Assembly of Geeks: Finding Rey When the Force Awakens episode starts with what they did for New Year’s and their Christmas gifts. They talk Peggy Carter, Guillermo Del Toro and Voltron, adding Rey to Monopoly and other Hasbro missteps, and their thoughts on Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Good episode.

BNN (Bombad Radio): Episode 1.18.16 covers the news for the week including celebrity deaths, top selling games, Fantastic 4 comics, Bioware and Mass Effect, Rogue One news, potential Han Solo actors, the possibility of a Vader appearance, and KOTOR creeping into canon. Again, good burst of news and a worthwhile podcast for your playlists. Continue Reading Podcasts in Review…
