For those who couldn't make the Celebration III convention, here's a recap of the most newsworthy items, primarily information given at the question & answer sessions from George Lucas and Rick McCallum. In addition, there's been quite a bit of news since the convention, so we've added that into the show too.

I've split it up into three sections. The first covers news of immediate importance, related to the release of Episode III. The second covers information given by Lucas and McCallum at C3. The third covers some of the more controversial news items that have come up in the last week. And then, at the end, there's a comprehensive update on the television series.
