Season 1, Episode 5 - The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey Review

And here we go, the long awaited Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey review!

Thank you so much to all of my followers who sent in questions for me to answer in this review, and I hope I answered them all well. =)

Just two quick warnings (which I also reiterate in the podcast, but repetition isn't usually a bad thing):

1. This episode does contain spoilers, so proceed with caution if you have not seen the movie or at least read the original book yet.

2. Except for the intro and conclusion, this episode is completely unscripted. That means that I go off on tangents, I say "um," there are occasional pauses as I try to gather my thoughts, and I may repeat myself every so often. I did it this way so it (hopefully) feels more "authentic," like how it would if we were standing face-to-face and you were asking me those questions (though I think in real life I'm a bit more hyper, but I didn't get my sugar spike until after I recorded this, sooooo.... =P).

And that's about it, I guess. Just click on the player below, and I hope you guys enjoy!





P.S. If you have any ideas about how I should go about my post on the Oscar ceremony on February 24th, then I'd love to hear them! Just comment below, shoot me an e-mail at edessacarrick@gmail.com, or comment on the HNED Facebook page, whichever way floats your speeder.

Season 1, Episode 3 - "Mercy Kill" Review

This third Holocron episode is all about the new X-Wing novel - Mercy Kill - by Aaron Allston that came out in August. There aren't too many spoilers, and I think I only had to say "Spoiler Alert!" once over the course of the whole 'cast.

Oh, and please ignore the part at the very beginning when I talk about this being Episode 2. I actually recorded the Mercy Kill review long before the "Revival" one, but I ended up posting the latter first because it was more pertinent. And I suppose that I could have gone back and edited that part, but then I would have had to save the whole thing over again and re-upload it on Internet Archive and then get rid of the previous files, and I really didn't feel like doing that.

So, long story short, this is really Episode 3, not 2. Just thought I'd clarify that there. =)

In Episode 2, I review the Clone Wars Season 5 premiere, "Revival," discussing the characters, plot, cinematography, some of my favorite quotes, and other such stuff.

And I am so excited that so many of you have said that you like the podcast so far! Your encouragement means so much to me! You guys rock! =D
