Hi everyone,

If you haven’t already heard, the Palestinian Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement has now called for a full boycott of Disney+. In the spirit of Star Wars at its most anti-imperialist, we will be continuing to follow BDS’ guidance. This means our planned Acolyte season 1 wrap-up episode is canceled, and any plans for covering other Disney+ shows like Andor season 2 or Skeleton Crew are suspended until BDS ends the boycott.

If you’d like to know BDS’ reasoning for escalating to this boycott, you can read about it here. While it is focused on the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Captain America 4, the specific Disney+ boycott does affect Star Wars. 

In addition, we’d like to direct you to donate or boost the fundraiser for Mohammad Matar’s family to escape Gaza.

Even after the Acolyte, we were already going to announce our move to cover more non-Star Wars media. Our plan moving forward is to have a series of stand alone episodes that center different types of media that we’ve been wanting to talk about, plus the classic RuPalp’s games and bits you know and love. Keep an eye on our social media for announcements on our direction and opportunities (like polls) to tell us what you want to hear!

Thank you all so much for your continued support, we appreciate everyone who has stuck with us for the last three years. We can’t wait to make more new stuff for you to listen to!

🚨 Ep. 84, Gooner the Hutt, is here! 🚨

We have RETURNED to Star Wars just before The Acolyte for our (slightly delayed!) May the Fourth, third anniversary, and PRIDE MONTH special!

Join us for all your favorite RuPalp's bits on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you get your podcasts!

Points of Interest: Chappell Rebo, “It’s never too early to talk about hole”, Max Rebo’s Bastard Child, Is Klaudia Discriminating Agaist Pau’ans?, a frankly wild amount of uses of the bleep sound effect, Fixing Marchion Ro with the power of topping, Mel’s Napoleon Complex, Whitey the Clone, Don’t Worry Obi-Wan, and Dear Ben Solo.

This Pride month we encourage our listeners to remember that Pride is a protest, and there is no Pride in genocide. Please join us in supporting this family's escape from Gaza. We hope to get them at least to 10k by the end of the month.

Rupalp’s Romance Smackdown converted me to Dix Nation

[cassnottiel]

New mystery spotcast episode fucked me up as someone who doesn't watch supernatural or Yuri on Ice but did get sucked into 9-1-1 in the last month

i cannot stress enough how that is the exact plot of this book

Fun character dynamic: Two characters, one of whom is autistic and competent at what they do, but isn't exactly charming to people. The other one has ADHD, can't really do fuck-all, but had a rough learning curve about people-pleasing growing up, and is really good at charming people. And they work as a team because that's how they work. One of them does the job as necessary and the other one just shows up like

"Oh me? Yeah no I just speak for this guy. I'm his spokesman. Yeah that's my full time job. We cannot survive without each other."

Not to get sappy about podcasts but I love listening to them when I’m driving alone late at night because they keep me company. I’m an avid rupalps podrace enjoyer and I was listening to the romance smackdown on my drive home tonight and it made me think of this. Idk it had me giggling and shit. I think what makes podcasts such a beloved medium is how they can seem like you’re part of a conversation. I’ve done some minimal sports podcasting and stuff for journalism I just love it.
