Welcome to the Youtini Canon Book Club! Enjoy this short interview with the new hosts Emmi, JG, and Hannah as they give Corey and Eric some insights into their Star Wars favorites.
This week, we fire up the hype train for STAR WARS OUTLAWS! We cover the new gameplay that was released at Ubisoft Forward, discuss what we're most excited for when it comes to the base game, the DLC, and the potential for Star Wars easter eggs, and we even discuss Corey's family secret involving Prohibition Moonshine.
This week is all about THE ACOLYTE! We dive into our thoughts about the first half of the season, the audience controversy that's plagued the show, and the ultimate question: Are you #YordHorde or #YordBored? Join us as we talk our wildest theories for the last few episodes of the show and find out a video game secret Charles has been hiding from us for years.
It's SANDERSON WEEK! On this week's episode, we talk about how Charles got us all into the Mistborn trilogy and reawakened our love of reading. Is fantasy the easiest genre to jump to from scifi? Is the Cosmere better than Star Wars? Will Eric ever finish The Fellowship of the Ring? Whether you've read all of Brandon Sanderson or have never jumped into fantasy at all, sit back and enjoy our intro into one of our new favorite hobbies.
This week, we talk about how important it is to keep your friends close! It can be hard to set up game nights or take those trips with your buddies, but the older we get, the more we need to send that text or make that call (unless you're Corey). Join us as we figure out how to navigate a busy schedule with a dwindling social battery, because at the end of the day, it's always worth it.
This week, we share the story of how Charles got us all into his obsession with the Miami Heat! We go through our histories as sports fans, why not everyone needs to love basketball, and how Caitlin Clark is poised to give the WNBA its biggest breakthrough in history. Even though we all met through Star Wars, we have loved this evolution into sports, and hopefully we're able to bring those words closer and closer in the years to come!
This week we celebrate May the 4th by going through our Star Wars State of the Union! What are our favorite Star Wars projects? How can the franchise learn from the success of Dune? How much does Corey really know about goat cheese? (a lot). Come enjoy the upcoming holiday with us as we shaer what Star Wars means to us after a very long year!
This week we dive into the idea of starting new hobbies as we get older. Why is it easier than ever before? How do online communities make new obsessions even more fun? And what in the world does Wes have in his closet? We answer all those questions, dive into the details of Corey's sim rig, and figure out which new hobbies are we trying out next!

"Hello there!" It's been a good 2 whole months since our last upload and we'd love to share some quick updates about ourselves and our progress on The Living Force. Big changes are happening and we'd love to let you know what's coming your way!
Since 2019 The Living Force has been delivering our take on Star Wars stories and content to help nerds everywhere dive deeper into the expanded universe. We've grown over the years with audio podcasts, live video, and recorded content and now there's a new horizon to explore. The TLF crew will reflect back on early podcasts, award shows, various hurdles we've overcome, and what we'll miss the most about the current iteration of The Living Force. Corey, Charles, Eric, and Wes are stepping away from the podcast for now but a new studio will emerge in the future. We can't wait for you to join us!
We have some amazing changes in the Youtini pipeline and TLF is progressing into a brand new format. The Living Force has been coming to you LIVE for over 3 years, and we love hanging out with our Star Wars family each and every week. A new schedule is headed your way but don't think we are going anywhere; it's going to be BIGGER and BETTER than ever!
Star Wars Inquisitor: Rise of the Red Blade by Delilah S. Dawson will be featured in this edition of Youtini's Roundtable series. We'll discuss how we consumed the story, the character and her importance to Star Wars, and the overall execution of the novel.
