  • Happy Life Day (Technology is Great)
    Dec 29 2025

    This week on the MidMO Nerd Show, we dive DEEP into Star Wars — like, hyperspace-deep.
    We talk everything from the sequel trilogy (and why it may not be as bad as everyone says 👀), to what still works, what definitely doesn’t, and why the fandom feels so divided.

    Yep — we know. Big hot take. Bring the comments. 🔥

    Unfortunately… technology decided to go full Sith on us.
    Mat’s awesome intro — and the first 10 minutes of audio — vanished into the void. So this episode jumps straight into the action. We trimmed what we could, but some great moments didn’t survive the editing bay. Thanks, tech!

    Still — it’s a fun one, and we’d love to hear your Star Wars thoughts, rankings, disagreements, and spicy opinions.
