TORWars

Hello TORWarriors!  We know you’ve been waiting oh so patiently for this new episode of the TORWars podcast and #115 promises to deliver.  Okay, it’s not full of all the blue humor we usually have, but this week was all about something else….STUFF!  That’s right, stuff.  Lots of things happened this week in the world of SWTOR and TORWars and we are here to tell you all about it.

You know, the holidays are fast approaching, and I’m feeling festive, so I thought I’d include this little screen grab featuring the one and only Bea Arthur from the Star Wars Holiday Special. Ah, good times….

Without further ado, here’s the list:

Oh and a gentle reminder for those that may not be listening to the show, but enjoying these show notes.  We have scrummed up an exclusive interview with the all-powerful and awesome Jeff Hickman and we would like your questions.  Leave those in the comments section below where we will gather them up like Sithy little bees after scrumptious honey.  Please take note, only ask questions that can be answered and not dodged.  We give two wonderful examples of theses kinds of questions that will not be passed to Mr. Hickman in the show so LISTEN!
