Galactic Governments: What are they good for?
EP. 202Galaxies: they’re big. Like, really really huge. The Galaxy Far, Far Away is filled with countless worlds with trillions upon trillions of sentient beings. And yet, it's presented as a single political community, notwithstanding separatist movements and fringe outposts. Neutral coalitions like Duchess Satine’s non-aligned group in the Clone Wars may have been sizeable, but their lack of attention in storytelling gives the impression that they’re the exception that proves the rule. So how does a galactic government work? How can a Republic Senate or an Imperial military (to take the most important examples) effectively govern and police such a vast population? This week we explore the concept of a galaxy-wide political community in Star Wars, where it holds up and where it doesn’t.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138 Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

The Sacred In-Universe Text!
EP. 201It’s no accident that the design of the Jedi Council Archives is based on the famed library of Trinity College, Dublin. Since the galaxy of Star Wars particularly reflects our own western world, its communication is heavily reliant on documents, files and even books. Like us, the cultural heritage bestowed on (and forgotten by?) The Late Republic, Empire, New Republic and First Order is contained in these texts, whether that heritage comes in the form of lore and stories of meaning-making, or historical records and technical information. Even the habit of producing texts, written correspondence, news broadcasts and other messages is the work of cultural inheritance. This habit continues, in our world and theirs, even as digital and video technology have noticeably altered our perceptions. This week we look at in-universe texts in Star Wars, what they are and what they do.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138 Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

200th episode special! Our Eye on the Canon: The History of Star Wars Publishing Part Two, 2013-present
EP. 200The Disney takeover in 2014 brought a brand new era of novels, comics and short stories, as well as films, live action and animated shows (including a new animated show literally this morning!) This fresh start promised an incredibly bold ideal: a fully-integrated and continuous canon across all media. This allowed it to hit the reset button for the Sequel Trilogy as well as opened up new possibilities for exploring the Prequel and Original eras and beyond. Was that ambitious ideal able to sustain itself, or was it a delusion of grandeur? As always, reality is somewhere in between, and this podcast has spent much of the last four years charting that reality and what it all means. As we hit the 200-episode mark, it's only fitting that we tell the story of the story, the history of Star Wars Publishing from 2014 to the present!You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138 Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

The History of Star Wars Publishing Part One: 1976 to 2014
EP. 199The Star Wars Expanded Universe — now known as Legends — was perhaps as sprawling, epic and varied as the galaxy itself. The real-world publishing saga may well be as interesting as the in-universe dramas told within those many, many pages. This week we chart this publishing timeline, from its humble origins, to its decisive turn into a staple of the fandom after the Original Trilogy, to its gripping interpretations of the Prequel Era and beyond on the eve of the Disney takeover.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138 Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

The Act of Repentance
EP. 198We often consider the final act of characters such as Anakin Skywalker and Ben Solo in terms of “redemption.” Have their sacrifices made amends for the evils of Darth Vader and Kylo Ren? But the Abrahamic faith traditions give us another angle to interpret their stories: “repentance.” If redemption considers the destination, then repentance is about the journey, the process and moment of transformation out of darkness into the light. Is it a more meaningful approach to Star Wars’ “reformed villains”? Does it yield richer interpretive results? This week we present our Lent special and explore this very question.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138 Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

The Underworld
EP. 197It's a moon! It's a starship! It's a podcast network! Ok in this case it's none of these…. The criminal underworld forms a vital part of Star Wars storytelling, especially for characters who want to, or could stand to, get their hands a little dirty. It challenges the narratives of order and security in a galaxy full of institutions that bank on those very narratives–literally and otherwise. More profoundly, it traces its own mythic origins to Campbell and behind him, the Hades of Greco-Roman imagination. It's therefore the essential first step in the hero’s journey out past the confines of everyday life with its familiar comforts of routines, practices and people. This week we truly go down to the lower levels, to the underworld.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138 Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

Separatism in Star Wars
EP. 196If there's a bright centre of the galaxy, then countless star systems will try to slip through its fingers. For almost all of the Star Wars that we currently have, the main political entity is a single galaxy-spanning body centred on Coruscant. Of course, it's more accurate to say that the Republic, the New Republic and above all the Empire merely aspire to extend their reach across the galaxy, with mixed results. Both iterations of the Republic simply can’t establish enough of a unifying presence in the outer rim, or haven’t even shown up yet. The tyrannical Empire faces a number of worlds, including in the core (RIP Alderaan), that harbour an open guerrilla revolution aimed at regime change across the galaxy. But at some points in the story of Star Wars, a whole swath of worlds band together for the cause of independence from Coruscant. They want to separate and form a whole ‘nother entity alongside the Republic. It's a pattern that has many parallels in modern real-world separatist movements, so it makes for another fascinating exploration into the politics of Star Wars!

The best book openers in Star Wars
EP. 195Perhaps the most important part of a story is the ending, which may be why it's the hardest to pull off. Likely the second-most important part of storytelling is the beginning. Readers often forget it as the plot thickens and characters develop, but it's critical to set up everything that follows. And in our era of Tik Tok attention spans and online hot takes, it has to grab the audience and then leave them wanting more. So this week, we’re giving the beginnings of novels their due, counting down our top five most memorable first chapters in Star Wars!You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138 Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

Leadership and Leadership Qualities in Star Wars
EP. 194Star Wars has a lot to say about leadership. The Saga films often involve leaders as supporting characters who spur on our young heroes to come into their own and take leadership roles themselves. General Organa’s biting words to Poe, “dead heroes…no leaders,” pushed him to guide the Resistance out of Crait, and then take on the mantle of fighting the Final Order. At other times, these older figures can be obstacles for the main characters to overcome, either by their presence (hello, Palpatine?) or their absence (good night, Qui-Gon). When those heroes get taken up as legacy characters in the wider canon, we often see them in a leadership role, most notably Luke, Leia and Han, and ultimately Rey and Finn. And as if the character reaches beyond the story into the realm of storytelling, Mon Mothma shepherds the transition from Prequel Trilogy to the Originals as she leads the emerging Rebel Alliance. This week we examine these stories and more for lessons on the do’s and don’ts, the who’s who and who’s not of leadership.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138 Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

All About Maul
EP. 193Maul is back! On April 6, our favourite red and black Dathomiri Zabrak is leaping into the spotlight once again with his very own animated show, Maul: Shadow Lord. Of course, his journey to this point as a “captain of illicit industry” (I made that up) was a long and winding path, including a stint as Sidious’ promising but ultimately discarded Sith Apprentice, a rage-fueled, quasi-Orphean crawl through a subterranean junk pile, and a harrowing escape after a breathtaking duel with Ahsoka Tano during the Siege of Mandalore. This week we chart that path and take the long view of Maul’s story throughout Star Wars canon!You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138 Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

Artistic Intent Amidst Many Artists
EP. 192When George Lucas had the final say on the “story” of Star Wars, it was *often* straightforward enough for us to understand the broad strokes of what he intended the meaning of each film to be. Of course, Star Wars – and Pop Art in general – is most successful when its themes are strongly and convincingly expressed through plot and character. However, even George wasn't always consistent, especially in the many interviews and commentaries he gave over the years to illuminate his films. That inconsistency has only gotten more complicated now that multiple directors, showrunners, screenwriters and other creatives are involved in “passing on” their characters and stories to the next creative –such as the “hand-off” in the Sequel Trilogy from JJ Abrams to Rian Johnson and then back to JJ. So how do we untangle this? How do we, the audience, interpret artistic intent in this exciting but sometimes bewildering age of creative diversity in Star Wars?You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialGuest Dominic Jones! https://www.instagram.com/dominicj25/ Bluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

Tuckerization in Star Wars
EP. 191“Tuckerization” - naming a Star Wars character a modified version of a real person’s name, is a fun and heartfelt way for creatives to honour and thank those who have inspired them and support them. It also provides an avenue for fans to imagine themselves as characters in the universe itself, and raises intriguing questions and possibilities for the connection between the fictional GFFA and our real world. This week we give our favourite tuckerizations, and think about who we would want to be in Star Wars!You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138and Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire
EP. 190Maybe it was poignant that Chris Kempshall’s The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire came out on the Fourth of July, 2024. It might also be poetic that one of us (who can tell?) only just finished reading it a year into the current presidential administration. Of course, Kempshall is drawing on plenty of real-world examples of authoritarian regimes that have come and gone. It’s also important to remember that the implied author Beaumont Kin is as fictional as the Galactic Empire he is chronicling. That intersection of real-world history and fictional narrative makes for an incredibly fascinating book that is almost tailor-made for a podcast like ours. So it’s high time we dig into it, and this is the week we do just that!You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138and Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialSenior Senate Correspondent Ash Mothma https://bejeweledmothma.bsky.social Bluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

Star Wars in 2026: Looking Forward
EP. 189The New Year is upon us! And there will be Star Wars in it! Specifically, a new Star Wars film is on the horizon, carrying with it all the hype and expectations of the franchise’s grand return to the big screen. How much will The Mandalorian & Grogu serve to complete this transition in Star Wars media? We also have another season of live-action streaming to look forward to, as well as two new animated series — all full of space wizardry! Of course, we have our eye on the whole canon, and so a pair of adult novels and a tie-in comic are catching our attention, as are some video games and other stories.

Symbols and Symbolism in Star Wars
EP. 188George Lucas was very keen on the power of visual design in Star Wars. The best filmmakers, production designers, comic book artists, video game illustrators and overall storytellers have continued this strong sense of the “look” of the Galaxy Far, Far Away. This clearly includes the use of symbols, be it of factions, movements, institutions and people: how those visual identities impact characters in-universe, and impact us real-world folks who are familiar with them. Of course, the work that symbols do in Star Wars comes straight from that same work of symbolism in our own everyday life, and how we associate these symbols with our own societies, countries, organizations and people – how we think and feel about them. This week we close off the year with a look at the power of visual identity in Star Wars and our own world.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138and Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

Star Wars 2025 Lookback
EP. 187Starting with Mask of Fear and ending with Master of Evil, 2025 was a steady parade of all-time Star Wars novels. The standalones were all brilliant, only to be outdone by the High Republic’s long-awaited finale, Trials of the Jedi. And since the Force moves in mysterious ways, it was a less significant year for streaming — notwithstanding Andor season two — and a very mixed and perplexing year for comics. That all served to make the novels stand out even more. With the year coming to a close, we look back on Star Wars stories from the last twelve months.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138and Joel Davis https://jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

Vader Ascendant: Looking back on Adam Christopher’s Master of Evil
EP. 186Master of Evil by Adam Christopher adds another layer of depth and feeling to Darth Vader’s journey from shining Jedi Knight to Dark Lord of the Sith. Along the way, we encounter a sympathetic Imperial with a terminal condition, his deeply loyal droid companion, a snivelling corporation with the usual dark science underbelly, and clones who keep on serving their brothers and their commanders, because it’s their duty. We also get some meaty lore about the Sith, the Separatists, the Empire, and a whole lot in-between!

Prophecy, Destiny and Fate in Star Wars
Claudia Gray of Team Luminous gave us this in Master & Apprentice: “Only through sacrifice of many Jedi will the Order cleanse the sin done to the nameless. The danger of the past is not past, but sleeps in an egg. When the egg cracks, it will threaten the galaxy entire. When the Force itself sickens, past and future must split and combine. A Chosen One shall come, born of no father, and through him will ultimate balance in the Force be restored.” In Revenge of the Sith, Yoda reminds us just how slippery interpreting it can be: “A prophecy, misread could have been.” That didn’t stop Qui-Gon though: he was convinced Anakin was the one. As we approach Advent and Christmas, we explore the theme of Prophecy in Star Wars and in real-world religions!You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138and Joel Davis https://bsky.app/profile/jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

It also gives us a fun self-insert character and framing device, who knows more about the galactic tea-making industry than we knew we wanted, and pushes the needle a few inches forward in the timeline after The Rise of Skywalker!

EP. 178We’ll admit it: canon contradictions can sometimes be hard to swallow. Of course, screen stories have overwritten details on paper a few times, perhaps the most famous example being Caleb Dume’s experience of Order 66 in the opening moments of The Bad Batch. And what about when one paper story seems to go against another, like the apparent discrepancies between Alex Segura’s Battle of Jakku and Chuck Wendig’s Aftermath Trilogy? How much do these inconsistencies really matter? And how has our thinking and feeling about them evolved in the nearly four years(!) that we’ve been doing this podcast? This week we catch up on the Great Canon Continuity debate, and dive back in!You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138and Joel Davis https://bsky.app/profile/jid20234.bsky.social Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

Who Really Won the Clone Wars?
EP. 177We all know that the real winner of the Clone Wars was one Sheev Palpatine aka Darth Sidious, at least from a narrative and character point of view. How about from an institutional perspective? Between the main combatants, the Republic and the Separatists, is it possible to claim a winner? If the Empire is the successor state to the Republic, then does that mean that the clones were ultimately victorious? Or how about the ties that the New Republic and even the Resistance had to the Separatists? This week we pick up our discussion about successor states to look at its implications for our understanding of history in Star Wars.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138and Joel Davis https://bsky.app/profile/jid20234.bsky.social Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

From Republic to First Order: How Star Wars Handles Government Continuity
EP. 175Did the Empire succeed the Republic? Did the First Order succeed the Empire? Does that mean the First Order succeeded the Republic?

Do Jedi give Sunday Sermons?
EP. 174Ritual, material, cultural adaptation, genuine faith: these are a few things that mark real-world communities defined by metaphysical beliefs, what we call “religions” nowadays. How well does Star Wars depict religions and their communities, at least analogously? Does it show widespread beliefs and practices, or confine them to a select few practitioners? When does it explore the relationship between the elites and the masses of a religious hierarchy? If a Jedi gives a Sunday sermon, do they have a congregation to hear it?You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138and Joel Davis https://bsky.app/profile/jid20234.bsky.social Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

Small Characters who went Big
EP. 173One of the nicest things about an extended canon – be it in streaming shows or in books and comics – is that it gives creatives more time to flesh out and expand the characters and character beats of the films. This expansion is particularly notable for characters who only have bit parts on the big screen, but then find a new lease in life in other media. For some of these examples, it's the fan reaction to a character or even a character design that prompts both creatives and executives to give these characters more time in the sun, reminding us that the stories that Lucasfilm tells and the support (financial and otherwise) that fans give to those stories are in a symbiotic, chicken-and-egg relationship. This week we look at some major characters that had a surprisingly small amount of screen time when we first met them.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138and Joel Davis https://bsky.app/profile/jid20234.bsky.social Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

George Lucas Speaks! Art and the Collective Power of Myth
EP. 171San Diego Comic-Con culminated in its first-ever appearance by The Maker himself, George Lucas. He was joined by Oscar-winning director Guillermo Del Toro and longtime Star Wars designer Doug Chiang to introduce the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, set to open next year. In the Hall H panel, they described the “why” of the museum, which led to a moving and profound exploration on the meaning and power of art in our social and cultural consciousness. This week we unpack their comments on the panel and talk about what that might mean for the way we approach the narrative and visual worlds of Star Wars.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138and Joel Davis https://bsky.app/profile/jid20234.bsky.socialBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/theswu/ Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxLucas Museum @ Comic-Con panel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ke3LUd2V30Last night!

Independence Day Special! Star Wars and Star Stripes: America in the GFFA
EP. 167The origins of Star Wars lie in Modesto, California, an All-American city in the San Joaquin Valley. While creatives from across the globe have made their mark on the Galaxy Far, Far Away, the franchise is first and foremost a piece of American pop culture. George Lucas used his platform and his imagination to reflect on the ins and outs, ups and downs of his own world, his own society, and his own country. Many others have followed, putting the good, bad, liberating and concerning aspects of American history, politics and social life on display up to the present time. This week, a few days after the United States celebrated its 249th birthday, we explore the many American dimensions of Star Wars.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138and Joel Davis https://bsky.app/profile/jid20234.bsky.social Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/eyeoncanon.bsky.socialStar Wars Underworld Podcast NetworkJoin us on Discord! https://discord.gg/xhbXgRuuGxAudible 30-Day Free Trial https://amzn.to/3cfeebq

Galactic Turning Points
EP. 163“History is replete with turning points.” This rings true in any franchise, including the Star Wars Canon timeline. Of course, how in-universe historians and real-world fans come to define the most important of these events depends a lot on what we consider the overall thrust of the grand narrative.

The Fall of the Galactic Senate
EP. 162“This Chamber’s hold on the truth was finally lost on the Ghorman Plaza.” The Galactic Senate: what had been a shining beacon of inclusive, representative democracy for millennia, had in just a century plummeted into a mouthpiece for authoritarianism. Mon Mothma herself witnessed the decline in real time, as the forum for truthful speech and good-faith debate was now a theatre for loyalty to Palpatine.
