Star Wars: Cantina Chronicles
Star Wars: Cantina Chronicles Friends meet at the local Cantina to talk about the latest Star Wars stories and lore! Cantina Chronicles looks at all of the important news, theories, and hot topics across ALL MEDIA in the Star Wars galaxy, from Alderaan (or the asteroid field that used to be Alderaan) to Zarak-Nine. We are a positive Star Wars forum that discusses everything we love about the galaxy far, far away, but near and dear to our hearts.
Episodes
The Acolyte is here! Pour yourself a drink and join us on Ueda for our breakdown of the two-episode premiere of The Acolyte. Be aware that spoilers abound in our conversation of both Episode 1: Lost/Found and Episode 2: Justice/Revenge. Enjoy!
In anticipation of The Acolyte, the cantina crew gather around the bar to rank and discuss all the Star Wars shows that have been released and chronicled on this very podcast. Though it’s a given all of these shows are beloved to the hosts, they share their unbridled thoughts about what worked, what didn’t, and why a specific show ended up where it did on their respective lists. Enjoy!
On this week’s episode, the cantina crew play Star Wars Jeopardy! Unlike traditional Star Wars trivia, these clues and subjects are taken from all corners of the Star Wars media landscape and encompass lore rarely touched on in the mainstream films. Play along, track your score, and stay tuned to hear about our plans for next week and our kick-off of all things Acolyte!
This week, the cantina crew gather at the local watering hole to review the latest stories in Star Wars comics. If you want to know what a Yaya Shram is or learn about Mace Windu’s homeworld, you won’t want to miss our coverage of the wildly entertaining Mace Windu miniseries. We also discuss the latest story arc from the Darth Vader main run featuring the Schism Imperial.
Somehow GRANT RETURNS
We take another swing at the Bad Batch finale, Tales of the Empire and the latest Acolyte trailer and then we dig in on some new content with the first 5 issues of the The High Republic adventures phase 3 comics and the 25th anniversary Phantom Menace comic.
Grab a seat at the bar and let’s talk Star Wars!

This week, we revisit the legends novel, ‘Darth Plagueis’ by James Luceno!

This week, we’re tailgating outside Castle Mustafar for our first ever Villain Draft!

This week, we start our discussion with a pitch for a Quinlan Voss series and convince ourselves it could be the next best thing after Andor.
