Most Things Kenobi - A Star Wars Podcast

This week we share our mixed feelings when it comes to Episode 4. Most of this episode moved us, either to tears or strong emotions, some scenes left us wanting more, while many others left us gasping and cheering. We go over all these and more, while theorizing what several of the episode's elements might mean (ahem, that TOMB?!). We also can't be the only ones who were left in tears by the end o...

This episode had it all, and we address every moment of the sheer excitement we felt while watching Episode 3! So as usual: **SPOILER ALERT** if you haven't seen this episode yet! There were so many amazing scenes, so many heartwarming moments, and of course - THAT scene - between Vader and Obi-Wan, that had us in our feels. In fact, discussing the scenes had us feeling very passionate while we re...

It's finally here!!!! We were thrilled by the first 2 installments of the Kenobi series, and in this episode we breakdown our favorite moments, talk about the deeper meaning behind some of the scenes, and freak out over a new fan theory that makes a lot of sense. Needless to say, this episode is filled with spoilers, so please proceed with caution. Also, please excuse the odd quality of this recor...

This week we review "Kenobi", a roughly 18 minute fan film about Obi-Wan Kenobi, and is one of our personal favorites - and what we believe is one of THE best fan films out there. Written by the actor who plays Obi-Wan in the film, Jamie Costa displays his talent and love for Star Wars throughout this brief but wonderful film. The story is set several years after Revenge of the Sith, where Obi-Wan...

Adam Driver has more range in his acting abilities than we have minutes to cover, but we do our damndest in this episode! We share our appreciation and awe-inspired takes on Adam's acting, commenting heavily on his character within the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy, in addition to several other of his other roles in film and television. From his humble background to his military experience to his degre...

We'll be discussing the heavy foreshadowing and major symbolism depicted throughout "Gho...

This week we're diving back into the Mortis Arc for the second episode, "Altar of Mortis." This story continues to get weirder and sadder, taking unexpected turns **SPOILER ALERT** like Ahsoka turning to the dark side, dying, and being brought back to life with a Force transfer. Join us as we speculate about the magical dagger, The Son's manipulation, and The Daughter's tragic death. Come get craz...

The Mortis Arc in the Clone Wars television series is one of the best the show has ever produced. It's heavy on symbolism, drama, foreshadowing, and fantastic storytelling. We'll discuss all of these things that pertain to the first episode in the arc, titled "Overlords". Over the next two weeks, we'll do the same for the rest of the episodes within this arc. MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD, so if you have n...

Hera Syndulla is an incredible woman of many roles. She's one of the galaxy's best pilots, a wonderful soul, a mother, friend, leader, General...and a Rebellion bad ass. We discuss all of Hera's roles over the course of her life, including her relationships with the Ghost crew, her role in the Rebellion and later, the Resistance, and how massive her impact has been within the Star Wars galaxy as a...

It's here!!! The Kenobi trailer finally dropped and we just HAD to record an episode about it!! We gush uncontrollably for a while before breaking the trailer down nearly scene by scene. We talk about how exciting it is to have Ewan (and his lock of hair) back, how amazing the dialogue sounded, and yes, we even discuss the shape of the inquisitor's head.

Today just happens to be Most Things Kenobi's 5th birthday ( the blog , not the podcast). We're so happy to celebrate by sharing part 2 of our latest Q & A session. We had a great time answering questions about Star Wars novels, fan fictions, the future of the franchise, and so much more!

We can't believe it's already our 40th episode! To celebrate, we're hosting another Q&A session where our listeners send in questions of all kinds. We answer personal stuff, fandom stuff, and Obi-Wan stuff...Lauren rants about how much she hates celery and LeeAnn talks about her Kenobi and Cupcakes theory. Sit back, relax, and laugh with us!

You know the scene. You LOVE the scene. And so do we....so much so that we dedicated an entire episode to discussing it: the Rogue One Darth Vader hallway scene. Praised by the majority of Star Wars fans and hailed as one of the best scenes in the franchise, we couldn't help but get a little excited (especially LeeAnn!) while reviewing it. We discuss all the reasons why it is such an effective and...

Whether they are words of wisdom you can live by, or just epic lines spoken by our beloved characters, in this episode we discuss our favorite Star Wars quotes. And, to have a bit of a laugh, we decided to throw in a few quotes that we find EXTREMELY cringey. Did any of your favs make it onto our short list? Let us know what you think!

This episode contains major spoilers for the 6th episode of The Book of Boba Fett, so proceed with caution if you have not seen the episode! READ NO FURTHER if you haven't seen the episode! But if you have, then you KNOW why we had to do a special recording. We were so excited to witness the amazing work done in bringing Luke Skywalker back, along with Ahsoka Tano, Grogu, Mando, Cad Bane, plus ALL...

Among Star Wars fans, we recognize James Arnold Taylor as the voice of Obi-Wan Kenobi in The Clone Wars movie and television series - AND the voice of our podcast intros (we are forever in your debt, James!) However, JAT's talents extend well beyond just this one character. In this episode, we go over several of our favorite works that James has done throughout his lengthy voice acting career, muc...

Our dear friend Jennie from @jenniemariestudio joins us for our first Women on Star Wars roundtable. One of our recent episodes regarding Padmé Amidala inspired all three of us to have a more in-depth conversation about the Queen of Naboo, a character Lauren, LeeAnn, and Jennie all struggled to like when The Phantom Menace debuted. Since then, with more exposure to the character via television ser...

The audio book "From a Certain Point of View: The Empire Strikes Back" was gifted to us by an incredibly generous viewer, so we decided to do a series of episodes where we review and discuss some of the short stories contained within this collection. This episode, we review the stories titled "Disturbance" and "There is Always Another". We'll also include discussion on the voice actors (as well as...

Whether you love it or hate it, Obi-Wan Kenobi's coiffe is legendary. In this episode, we discuss the hairdos and the hair-don'ts, from the heinous Phantom Menace flattop to the unfortunate Attack of the Clones Bee Gee mullet to the dashing Clone Wars rogue strand of hair. Get out your round brushes and your hairspray, because we're going platinum with these iconic styles! We also give a shoutout...

There's a long-standing theory that when Padmé Amidala passed away at the end of Revenge of the Sith, it was due to "a broken heart". But if you ask the both of us, we staunchly disagree! Join us this episode to hear why we disagree with the notion of Padmé "dying of a broken heart", and why we think this incredibly strong, resilient, dedicated woman would *not* have died of sadness but of another...

As we say farewell to the year 2021, we discuss the influence The Mandalorian and Baby Yoda/Grogu had on all of us this past year. Specifically, we discuss Grogu and his interactions with Ahsoka and Luke, and the theories we have regarding his influence on both, and both Luke and Ahsoka's influence on him. We raise a few interesting points regarding what Grogu saw on the Seeing Stone as well. Come...
