The Knowledge Gene is one of those excellent books that doesn’t come around nearly often enough. Except Lynne Kelly has a habit of only writing incredible books. Of course, I’m partial because I share Kelly’s love of memory. But I don’t have anything like the scientific background and depth of research she brings. Not to mention the wisdom that all…

Sometimes, you simply cannot get through five chapters of a Star Wars because there is TOO MUCH TO TALK ABOUT. A cover that gives Luke Skywalker an insane glow-up (and a normal haircut for once), and shows the Falcon at her best (flying off into a romantic sunset). A book that's unafraid to begin with the number one scourge of the 90s (ACID RAIN) a…

Our intrepid hosts finish this best-selling book! Before we dive into the action, we undertake a wide ranging investigation into Corran Horn's height, and whether or not he qualifies not only as Best Boy, but also Short King. Then it's back to Black(moon), baby, for a rollercoaster of emotion as Wedge does what Wedge does best and Corran hides in a…

Get Better At Anything originally made me skeptical when I first saw the title. I mean, I’m usually not one to judge a book by its cover, but… “Anything”? That right there is what you call a big promise. So, of course, I had to invite Scott Young onto the Magnetic Memory Method Podcast to asking him what counts as “anything.” And I wanted him to de…

Imagine mastering a new language using the same memory techniques the help memory champions remember thousands of random digits or multiple decks of cards. Although you’d be forgiven if you can’t see the connection, I’ve interviewed many memory athletes over the years. Not all of them also learn languages. But many do. And for the first time ever, …

How come they always read like fan fic except in the ways you want them to?! These chapters are full of horniness and a big ol' flirt triangle...but have absolutely no making out whatsoever for incredibly convoluted reasons we just can't parse. Wedge (aka "Veggie") leads most of the gang back to Blackmoon (except for Erisi who is pining for Corran …

We could call this Ch. 26-30 of Rogue Squadron but it's maybe more accurate to say we're diving in to How To Blow Up A Pipeline by Horton Salm?

Just as he's on his way to getting well and t…

If you want to know how to memorize numbers, you might be getting frustrated… After all, there is a ton of confusing information about the main remembering numbers technique known as the Major System.

If you want to become conversationally fluent, you might wonder how many words and phrases you need to learn. You probably also want to know how long it’s going to take to tie enough threads of the language together to speak without hesitation.

Aphantasia. Sounds like a magic word a magician would say before conjuring a rabbit from his hat, doesn’t it? But let me ask you this: Can you visualize the magician pulling out the rabbit by his ears? For most of us, it will be easy to recall images inside our head, using our mind’s eye. However, if you could NOT see any image in your mind’s eye –…

Reflective thinking provides one of the fastest paths to living a better life. I saw the power of it year after year while serving as a professor at three universities around the world.

Memory recall, sometimes incorrectly called retrieval, is the experience of remembering information. Here’s the catch I’ve noticed after more than a decade serving the public as a memory expert with one of the most watched TEDx Talks on memory issues: Proper recall can only happen after at least these other levels of memory have succeeded first: No…

Corran Horn pulls off a bonkers maneuver that saves the whole Squadron — and also gets him accused of Lite Treason (TM) / confined to his quarters. The rest of the crew feels sorry for him, but not so sorry that they refrain from either making out with each other in said quarters...or trying to make out with him due to battle victory horniness.

Buckle up as our hosts follow Rogue Squadron into combat once more! First, there's some very fancy flying, followed by much unfancy drinking out of what one can only assume are space Solo cups (is Han Solo secret heir to a cup fortune?

Okay so you know how we've talked before about the lack of sex in Star Wars...well, that doesn't mean that there's a total lack of intimacy, as evidenced by Wedge Antilles' VERY HOT, VERY PUBLIC relationship with his X-Wing.

Coming at you with a quick palate cleanser between Shadows of the Empire and Rogue Squadron — and a kind of literal one, too, since one of these stories involves the madcap adventures of Jabba's classically-trained chef as he tries to clear his name in the wake of a slew of murders-by-beignet. We've also got a story from a Canadian-American husband…

In the final chapters of this saga, a book that started off at a jewelry-making retreat before taking a hard left into sexual assault finally resolves in full-out slapstick comedy. Our heroes trek through a sewer and douse themselves in literal shit. Chewie, bless his heart, goes sprawling in the middle of an ambush following a Looney Tunes-style s…

We know some of our listeners are reading along with your kids, so a content warning: these chapters includes discussion of an extended sexual assault scene that’s probably not appropriate for younger listeners (and maybe not a choice for all adults, either).

Did something finally happen in these chapters or do Kelly and Emily just have space Stockholm syndrome??

Vader and Xizor ratchet up their game of mutual spying and lying. Leia waits around a casino until Guri’s busy schedule of murdering unruly Black Sun associates clears up. Luke and Dash intercept a message from a Bothan spy who may or may not be just a human guy (?) and end up hijacking a load of literal bullshit. And we are left asking what a Twi’…

We start off with some very important Han Mail as we defend the honor of a woman who definitely did NOT write us a nuanced and thorough review on Audible.

We are finally diving into Shadows of the Empire, by which we mean Lucasfilm's Death Star sized 90's marketing machine. For this is no mere book: it is a weird conglomerate of a novel, several comic books, a video game, collectable figurines, an original soundtrack (!) and probably something else we missed. Before we dive into the book itself, Kell…

Now that Han Solo is alone with this swoop, things are gonna get more explicit between him and this glorified motorcycle than they ever have with him and Leia.
