Politics and Star Wars go together like peanut butter and chocolate.
Don’t believe me?
Listen to us hash it out!
For the 95th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts — Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) — talk a little Saints and Halloween before diving into the “Book of Boba Fett” trailer. What did the trailer show us, what did it merely hint at, and what more do we want to see? Your hosts offer some clues as to what we can expect to see from this new show before transitioning to a different topic perfect for voting season: politics in Star Wars. They outline how the politics have always been there from the start, what lessons we can take from the saga (hint: it’s more about the act of getting involved rather than the particulars of how), and why a Star Wars without politics would actually be boring.
