Brews and Blasters 217: I Saw Red—Sith Trooper Revealed!

by Brews and Blasters

We had a whole bunch of things to discuss this week, but it all gets thrown out to discuss the most exciting news this week—the reveal of the Sith Trooper!

Just when you think it’s going to be a slow news week, Star Wars drops a massive bombshell with the introduction of the Sith Trooper! What does this mean for the Rise of Skywalker? What does it mean for the Sith? What does it mean for new merchandise? What does it mean for our wallets?! We are getting into all of it this week, as well as plenty of food talk, and maybe even a reference to Baby: Secret of the Lost Legend. Let’s go, Warheads! The Star Wars Party starts now! It’s time for Brews and Blasters.

Born from the discussions between two friends at a local pub in the historic town of Salem, Massachusetts, Brews and Blasters is your chance to kick back, relax and then enjoy everything about that galaxy far, far away. Your hosts, Chris Salton (founder, The Collectors Hutt) as well as Joe Tavano (founder and editor in chief, RetroZap!) sit down every week to do what would be doing anyway–talk about all things Star Wars, tell some stories, and of course, have a good time. Join Joe and Chris as they share their love for Star Wars, the most obscure Star Wars characters, Boston’s North Shore, 1980s pop culture and delicious food, and occasionally talk to fascinating people–and friends, like an anthropomorphic packet of crystallized lime.
