Podcast: A Star Wars Story

Podcast: A Star Wars Story

Van Lee and Brian Vaughan are lifelong friends and Star Wars fans who have navigated the expansive franchise in different ways. Van loves to commit every meaningless detail of the galaxy to memory, while Brian just likes it when C3PO complains and gets on everyone's nerves. Their two perspectives intact, Van and Brian run the entire Star Wars series in chronological order, cracking jokes about George Lucas and unearthing little-known trivia along the way. It's like spending time with your best buds, but in space!

Alien diplomats! A monotone Queen! Space wizards! Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace has it all. Brian and Van slog their way through a trade dispute as they cover the first half of the 1999 hit movie, infatuated with Nute Gunray the whole time. Van lectures Brian on things like the Cosmic Force vs the Living Force, Qui-Gon Jinn being a 'gray' Jedi, and Darth Maul's original voice. It all culminates in a somehow wackier versio...
