After reviewing the sources and past discussions, I concur this does not pass WP:GNG/WP:CORP/WP:NMEDIA. It is a podcast that has generated little coverage of itself, except niche star wars fan sites and local media. They do get mention in passing every now and then, but I don't see what makes them significant (notable). I don't see any source discussing their significance or impact on the wider world, or even in Star Wars fandom. Yes, they are likely one of the more notable Star Wars podcasts (I am guessing, since I haven't found a source that says that...), but unless this is stated by a reliable, non-niche, non-local source, it is not enough. PS. My university doesn't seem to have access to HighBeam, but neither of those articles seem sufficient (passing mention/local coverage) to be sufficient to argue this podcast has received significant coverage by other media, IMHO. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:26, 23 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Delete I see no case for this meeting GNG, but WP:NMEDIA is an entirely independent standard. The only coverage of them I can find relates to one incident in 2015 (e.g. [1] [2]). While there are technically multiple sources, they're all covering the same incident. As an online podcast, I assume any reliable sources about them would also be online; an appearance in a Star Wars documentary isn't relevant. Power~enwiki (talk) 05:07, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as promotional page for an unremarkable podcast. No sources to meet GNG / ORG. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:40, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
