Episode 065 - From Zygerria to Malastare - The Sentient Aliens of Star Wars, Part 3

In this episode, the hosts continue their ongoing series on the various sentient aliens of Star Wars - analyzing their depiction, discussing their unique traits, and mentioning the most notable members of each alien species that appear in canon media. Discussed today include the Toydarians, Dugs, Devaronians, Evereni, Zygerrians, Dowutin, Gen’Dai, Ugnaughts, Besalisk, and Gamorreans. This episode also explores the ways that alien cultures gain nuance as more members of each species are depicted, and how each member of an alien race does not need to, nor should, serve as a stand-in for the entire species.

This episode mentions content from, and may contain spoilers for: Episodes 1 through 9, The Clone Wars, From a Certain Point of View (Empire Strikes Back & Return of the Jedi), The Mandalorian, Rebels, The High Republic: Eye of the Storm, Tempest Runner, The Bad Batch, Light of the Jedi, Fallen Order, Jedi Survivor, Clone Wars (Legends), Bounty Hunters, Padawan, and The Book of Boba Fett.
