SWRPG designer Rodney Thompson on Order 66 podcast
I would've posted this sooner, but I had to watch my Kansas Jayhawks pull out an amazing OT win over Memphis to take the men's basketball NCAA National Championship tonight. Rock Chalk Jayhawk!

We now return to your regularly scheduled blog...

Earlier this year, a couple of guys started up a podcast featuring the Star Wars RPG Saga Edition. Their rules discussions are good, though I'm not a big fan of their comedy bits...but I have to admit, they have a killer Watto impersonator. Anyway, this week features an interview with Saga Edition and WotC Star Wars lead designer Rodney Thompson. It's a really good interview, and has an extensive question and answer session that touches on a lot of currently-discussed rules and products.

If you play the game, you need to listen to this. If you're a general Star Wars fan, you might learn a bit from it - especially on the subject of new EU material created within the game - but it's pretty hard core rules intensive. Among the subjects are the upcoming KOTOR and Force Unleashed books. The podcast clocks in at 2+ hours, so be prepared. But the sound quality is good, and the interview is handled very well (and believe me, I've heard some annoying podcast interviews on other subjects).

You can find the interview at d20radio.com or go straight to the episode. You can also find the podcast on itunes and other podcast catchers, just search for Order 66 or click on the straight to episode link above and choose your podcatcher of choice via feedburner.

If you don't download podcasts, you can actually listen directly through your web browser (click here then press play now under Episode 12).
