**Holocron Radio is expanding!** Episode 11 introduces our new extended format with more Star Wars news, lore, debates, hot takes, and deep dives from across Canon and Legends. This week, we're going back to the beginning of **Luke Skywalker's New Jedi Order** and exploring the first generation of Jedi who helped rebuild an Order nearly destroyed by Palpatine. 🌌 **THIS WEEK ON HOLOCRON RADIO:** 📰 **This Week in Star Wars** — We break down some of the latest news happening across the galaxy. 📖 **Star Wars Fact of the Week** — Luke Skywalker began rebuilding the Jedi Order on Yavin 4 with only **12 students**, laying the foundation for what would eventually become the New Jedi Order. 🎙️ **Grandmaster's Take** — *The Expanded Universe had enough incredible stories, characters, and eras to produce better Star Wars movies and shows than the majority of what we've gotten in the current era.* ⚔️ **MAIN TOPIC: THE FIRST OF THE NEW ORDER** We're breaking down Luke Skywalker's earliest Jedi students and the beginnings of his Jedi Praxeum on Yavin 4. From **Kam Solusar, Tionne, Streen, Gantoris, Dorsk 81 and Kirana Ti** to major early members of Luke's Order like **Kyle Katarn, Corran Horn and Kyp Durron**, we're looking at where these Jedi came from, what happened to them, and how Luke transformed a small group of Force-sensitives into the foundation of a new Jedi generation. We'll also discuss the **Exar Kun crisis**, the successes and failures of Luke's early academy, and why Luke's approach to rebuilding the Jedi was fundamentally different from the Jedi Order that came before him. 🔥 **Holocron Radio Reads a Star Wars Hot Take** — Is Dave Filoni's attachment to Ahsoka preventing him from being the right person to lead Star Wars into its next era? 🟣 **JEDI OF THE WEEK: ANAKIN SOLO** We explore the life and legacy of one of the New Jedi Order's most promising young Jedi—from his place in the Solo family and relationship with Tahiri Veila to his heroic leadership and ultimate sacrifice during the Yuuzhan Vong War. 👀 **PLUS: EPISODE 12 TEASER** Anastasia returns with another question: **Who are the Mortis Gods?** And we'll preview an exclusive interview with an **Australian Star Wars fan currently writing and producing their own Star Wars fan film!** Welcome to the next era of **Holocron Radio**. **Canon.
