Star Wars Re-Watch Podcast

Another Sunday in the books, and another episode of The Star Wars Re-Watch Podcast goes out into the universe. Hi, I'm your host Luca, and with me is my co-host and best friend AJ. What can we say about this episode? More than its creators, that's for sure. AJ and I managed to ramble on for over an hour, while the creators barely scraped together 30 minutes. I do appreciate the legendary C...

Wow! This episode takes a left turn that seems to split the fanbase—what's left of The Mandalorian fanbase, that is. If memory serves, Ryan Eary at Screen Crush mentions that half the fans seem to have abandoned the series, which is unfortunate. This season, instead of relying on crossing over characters from other series (like Bo-Katan) or blatant fan service (like Luke Skywalker), the creato...

Another Sunday, another episode of the Star Wars Re-Watch Podcast in the bag. This time, with a very special guest, Kelsey! I'm writing this several days after the first viewing of the episode and only one day after re-watching it a second time. This episode definitely felt longer compared to the first episode of the season. We mentioned that Din Djarin is given a quest by The Armorer. Here we...

Howdy, my fellow Mandalorians! If you're reading this, then you know "this is the way" to lose some brain cells and listen to some thirty-somethings from the Midwest discuss a Disney+ TV show. We're back in our new, exclusive podcast studio! We recently moved, but we still managed to finish off Andor while setting up the new studio. Some of us were out due to illness, others due...

Greetings, Jedi dogs! Apologies for the delay on the audio; I've been hard at work on the video, and it's been driving me nuts! But I think I've finally got the workflow down. Please make sure to check us out on YouTube as well—links will be in the bottom of the show notes. I might even publish to Spotify. Sadly, my brother Mike couldn't make it to the season finale of Andor , but...

Apologies for the delay in publishing. Mike and I recorded this Sunday, but as I've mentioned before, I need 24 hours to process what I've just watched. This time, I needed a bit longer and even skimmed the episode before writing this so it was fresh in my mind. This episode was incredible. It starts with a bit of suspense as Cassian and Melshi are on foot, trying to escape Narkina 5. The...

Another episode in the bag, and guess what? We now have a video podcast! Check us out on YouTube. This past Sunday, the whole gang was together: Luca, AJ, and my brother Mike. We're here to deliver that "audible chocolate" you know and love. This episode of Andor was excellent, with credit going to the writing staff. Throughout the viewing, I noted several standout lines delivered by...

Salutations, my fellow Corellians! Not sure why I'm aligning myself with Corellia. My name is Luca, and like Luke, I wasn't raised there. Luke was raised on Tatooine and is technically half Nubian. That's right, Nubian, not "Naboolian" as Wookieepedia suggests! Here's my evidence: In Episode I, on Tatooine, Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn is inside Watto's Starcraft Parts St...

Hello spacefarers.  It's your friendly host Luca.  My brother Mike and I decided to re-watch 2 episodes of Andor today.  What a treasure for you!  Our loyal listeners. This episode follows around ISB agent Dedra Meero and her colleagues.  She's the only one whose taken all the missing tech seriously and her hunch has paid off.  In the previous episodes she overstepped...

This episode focuses on ISB Agent Dedra Meero and her colleagues. She's the only one taking the missing tech seriously, and her hunch has paid off.

This is frustrating! I spent twenty minutes typing up the show notes, only to let my OCD get the better of me. If I navigate away from this page before saving, everything gets deleted. And of course, that's exactly what happened. All because I wanted to name the audio file the same as the episode! Stupid brain. Oh well, here goes again. Here's what I remember before it got deleted: Our her...

Hello gang, Luca here... as usual. I'm pissed. I'm trying to add a video element to the podcast, and I can't seem to get a video file with audio from OBS. Ugh! I've gotten it to work before, but I keep messing it up. Also, the camera battery died while we were recording, so I need to get a dummy battery to prevent that from happening again. But it won't matter if I can't ge...

Greetings, friends! Sorry we didn't publish last week; I was out sick, and all the recording gear is at my place, so my co-hosts couldn't continue without me. I guess I am the indispensable glue that holds us together! Today we re-watched episode 5 of Andor, titled "The Axe Remembers." We explain the significance of that title in this episode. The series is definitely gaining mom...

Howdy, friends! We've got another episode of Andor in the bag for you—Episode 4, "Aldhani." This time, AJ and I (Luca) hosted a special guest, Sydney's brother Joel! Unlike his sister Sydney, Joel seems to have had a more normalized exposure to the Star Wars franchise. Compared to AJ and myself, he's definitely more of a casual observer. Of course, that's totally okay. Wi...

Howdy folks! Tune in to the Star Wars Re-Watch Podcast as we delve into Episode 3 of Andor: "Reckoning." Shout-out to our super fan, my sister Frank—thanks for listening! Please share with your friends! Listen as I amusingly confuse Joseph Smith with Joseph Campbell. Campbell, not Smith, is the author of "The Hero with a Thousand Faces." George Lucas credits him as an influence...

Hi, Mike here, typing up the show notes this time. We've got the 2nd episode in the books, and we all seem to be in love with the show—except for Luca, our original hipster who doesn't like anything! 😉 The episode opens with a flashback to Kanari, Cassian's home planet. We're starting to delve deeper into Cassian Andor's backstory and upbringing. Cassian and Bix's plan is...

Welcome to Season 2 of the Star Wars Re-Watch Podcast! Does that make sense? No, it doesn't. The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett would technically be Seasons 1 & 2 of this podcast if we re-watched them based on air date. We didn't do it that way, though. We're trying to catch the wave of that algorithm, and you can't do that with shows that aired a few years ago. Just kid...

It's the last episode—YAY! We've made it to the season finale of Obi-Wan Kenobi. A big thank you to our special guests Tyler, Sydney, and Joanna for joining me in this final episode. We delve into the climactic events as Obi-Wan and his ragtag group of rebels and refugees make their stand. Obi-Wan makes the bold decision to split off from the main group to face Vader alone. Tyler shares so...
