June 23, 2024 • Connor and Alex • Season 3 • Episode 16

This episode provides an overview of the seven primary lightsaber forms used by Jedi, Sith, and other lightsaber-wielders in the Star Wars universe. The hosts explain each lightsaber style, the exemplars of each, and delve into what each style means as a vehicle of visual and character storytelling. Connor and Alex also discuss the concept of lightsaber forms and styles as a whole to see if they are an overcomplicated piece of lore, or if they add to the richness of the setting and its sense of lived history.

This episode mentions content from, and may contain spoilers for: Episodes 1 through 9, The Clone Wars, Rebels, Jedi: Fallen Order, Jedi: Survivor, Tales of the Jedi, Ahoska, The Mandalorian, The Force Unleashed (Legends), The High Republic (Phase 1), The Acolyte, and Visions (season 1).
