The Nature of the Force

We discuss in-depth the nature of the Force; does it have a will of its own, and use beings to achieve it? Or is it purely something passive to be tapped into to bend to one's own will? Did Shmi really conceive through the Force itself or someone manipulating it, or was there just not good sex education for slaves on Tatooine? Rhett floats his theory on Rey's parentage and how they will reveal it...no fear of spoilers on this one. Michael announces a contest of sorts for those who will be attending Star Wars Celebration in Orlando. Rhett discusses how changing his iTunes funding source from a credit card to a debit card has made him less interested in geting back into the app...after having spent freely enough to pull whatever he wanted whenever he wanted it, how could a smaller budget of credits feel as much fun to pull with? Especially if trading is not enjoyable to you? Is Slingblade a comedy? Is deer hunting a sport? What's the collective noun for a group of deer? For a group of Ewoks? We discuss the ramifications of Lumpy from the Star Wars Holiday Special now being canon.

    Meeting Topps, post-Celebration glow, and a Giveaway

    Release Date: 05/02/2017

    Authors: [email protected] (Card Trader Illuminerdy)

    Description: After our last mini-episode, we come back with a whopper. An exciting opening, with Tommy on the road and a technical snag all in the first 7 minutes, but full steam ahead after that. Some points of discussion, definitely not in this order: -We're having a legit giveaway: Leave us a review on iTunes  before the end of the month to be in the running for a pack containing the SWCT Orlando-exclusive Stormtrooper insert, and physical Card Trader Illuminerdy swag physically mailed to you! -We got to meet Topps! It took some tracking them down, but we not only met with Topps Digital's Emily, but also some fellow Star Wars Card Traders. -App talk: A new Poggle card! Sets being chased: Fan's Choice, Might of the Empire, Attitude, Widevision -Other convention talk: a discussion of the new Star Wars location as a "major hub in the pre-lightspeed travel era" has Rhett questioning how that would be possible. He also questions whether there will be any opportunities for...private character encounters, say, with a Kiminoan. -Tommy talks about running into The Last Jedi actress Kelly Marie Tran. -Michael discusses the art of standing in line for 6 hours for merchandise. Misc: -Is there too much content in the world? Is it even possible to consume everything that's officially canon for even your favorite B or C-level -500 million hours of Adam Sandler movies watched on Netflix: are people out of things to watch, or is that just what people really want to watch? -What was the first reality show? This Old House? Remote Control? -Rhett shares memories of fan fic on theforce.net forums involving a Dragonball Z / Star Wars characters on Earth mashup, to which he and other members recorded "radio drama"-style recordings. -What is it going to take to be able to watch Billy Ocean's "Loverboy" video on MTV again? Food: -Why can't I pick up a bag of crisp chicken skins in the chip aisle? -Michael somehow got a hold of the upcoming summer special red-white-blue Mountain Dew flavor: Mountain DEW.S.A. TL/DR: Giveaway winner selected from iTunes reviews at the end of May

    The Rise of Skywalker, Spoiled - a.k.a.: The Last Card Trader

    Release Date: 02/22/2020

    Authors: [email protected] (Card Trader Illuminerdy)

    Description: Well, this is it. The last of the Skywalker saga has come and gone. We go over what the advance crowd-sourced info on Reddit got right (all of it), and wax poetic about our takes on what it all means as an end to a story that has had such an impact on our lives. We compare and contrast what's happening in Star Wars with what's happening in Star Trek, including hashing out the start of the Picard series. As far as Star Wars Card Trader, we're so far removed from it now that it doesn't seem to make sense to even pretend that's what this is about. So let us know if you still want to hear from us, and we'll see if we can't find something else for the "CT" in CT Illuminerdy to stand for. Thanks as always for listening!

Listed below are a few reasons for the hype that has been created around them- Luxury of credit Having a credit card gives you the luxury of spending out of your pockets. Credit cards allow you to borrow money from a bank and make necessary purchases for the time being.
