Independence Day Special! Star Wars and Star Stripes:...

Eye on Canon Podcast ·

2025/07/08

EP. 167The origins of Star Wars lie in Modesto, California, an All-American city in the San Joaquin Valley. While creatives from across the globe have made their mark on the Galaxy Far, Far Away, the franchise is first and foremost a piece of American pop culture. George Lucas used his platform and his imagination to reflect on the ins and outs, ups and downs of his own world, his own society, and his own country. Many others have followed, putting the good, bad, liberating and concerning aspects

EP 166Connections to Canada in Star Wars might be a bit obscure, but they’re there if you know where to look. Thankfully, half the members of this podcast hail from the Great White North, so we can spot plenty of references. From Naboo’s shimmering lakes and benevolent constitutional monarchy, to real-world creatives like Hayden Christensen, Deborah Chow and Pablo Hidalgo, Canada surely punches above its weight. On the Eve of Canada Day, we take a look at ways this land has inspired the Galaxy Far,

EP. 165The Death Star: the ultimate power in the galaxy, or is it insignificant next to the power of the Force? Or maybe it's a small moon? This week we continue the Andor momentum train with a look at the fearsome superweapon that started it all, and what it symbolizes in the mythology of Star WarsYou can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Matthew Neugebauer https://instagram.com/mneug1138and Joel Davis

Thrawn: The Trilogy that Started it all

Eye on Canon Podcast ·

2025/06/17

EOC 164The year is 1991. The Star Wars Trilogy ended nearly a decade ago and fans have been left in the lurch. Though entries such as the Ewoks films and Droids sustained us for so long, we yearned to know what happened to our main trio. That story came thanks to Tim Zahn, a science fiction author who gave us that answer in the form of the Thrawn Trilogy.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at https://www.youtube.com/@Starwarsunderworld/streams Hosted by Joel Davis

Galactic Turning Points

Eye on Canon Podcast ·

2025/06/03

EP. 163“History is replete with turning points.” This rings true in any franchise, including the Star Wars Canon timeline. Of course, how in-universe historians and real-world fans come to define the most important of these events depends a lot on what we consider the overall thrust of the grand narrative. This week we count down each of our top 5 most important events, with some honourable mentions, as another fun but hopefully interesting deep-dive into our perennial question, “what is Star

The Fall of the Galactic Senate

Eye on Canon Podcast ·

2025/05/27

EP. 162“This Chamber’s hold on the truth was finally lost on the Ghorman Plaza.” The Galactic Senate: what had been a shining beacon of inclusive, representative democracy for millennia, had in just a century plummeted into a mouthpiece for authoritarianism. Mon Mothma herself witnessed the decline in real time, as the forum for truthful speech and good-faith debate was now a theatre for loyalty to Palpatine. This week we look at the fall of the Republic’s and Empire’s corruption-infested

EP. 161Andor is over 😭 Yes we’re crying, even though we’re also smiling because it happened. The series wrapped up doing what it does best, with a character-focused story that shows how incredibly realized people live and fight in a galaxy overrun by darkness. It also transitions into the next chapter of the rebellion against the Empire in a brilliant way. This week we break down the final arc of Andor Season 2!You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at

EP. 158Season Two of Andor: A Star Wars Story immediately hit the ground running! It picked up the story from Season One while masterfully charting a course for the rest of the show. It also set a darker tone to the Empire, albeit one that connects more deeply with the wider Star Wars story in this period.

On the Road to Empire

2025/04/08

EP. 155“Too late? For what, the Republic to fall? It already has and you just can't see it. There's no justice, no order but the one that will replace it!” Formally, the Galactic Empire began with Palpatine’s declaration in the Senate and the “reorganization” he promised. But Maul’s biting words to Ahsoka in the Sundari throne room point to a deeper truth: the Republic – and the CIS – had already given way to an authoritarian regime. This week we look at the rise of the Empire: what it

EP. 154It began with the Delegation of 2,000 during the Clone Wars. It continued with the rise of scattered cells of resistance across the galaxy. As the Empire tightened its grip, more star systems, factions, political leaders and militarist groups slipped through its fingers. Ultimately, it coalesced into the Alliance to the Restore the Republic, a full-blown revolutionary movement. Then at the Battles of Scarif and Yavin, it showed the galaxy that the dream of freedom just might come true.You can

EP. 153Sith. Pirates. Crime bosses. Wannabe Edgelords. Corporatist Oligarchs. Stuffy Imperials. Evereni survivors and their not-so-furry pets. Star Wars has had its variety of villains, each of them embodying different patterns and forces of darkness, pride, selfishness and fear, sometimes with some genuine skepticism of central authority thrown in. This week we dive into the moral underside of the Galaxy Far, Far Away, and uncover what these villains mean for the stories they find themselves in,

What is Fandom?

Eye on Canon Podcast ·

2025/03/18

EP. 152“Fandom” is a tricky and amorphous concept. We have ideas of what it means, but those might be contradictory or at least distinct. The concept of a “Star Wars fan” raises fascinating questions since our fandom contains many groups within it, partly based on age, gender or other demographics. In a franchise spanning (real world) 48 years and (in-universe) multiple centuries, there are many pockets of groups preferring one era over another, and sometimes one era at the expense of another

EP. 151The Mask of Fear by Alexander Freed kicks off the Reign of Fear trilogy in stunning fashion, giving us all the gripping political drama, guerrilla action and moving character stories it promised, and then some. We chart the journeys of Mon Mothma, Bail Organa, Saw Gerrera and new character Soujen Vak-Nhalis through this brilliantly-written intricate tale that may well become an all-time classic.You can watch our episodes live every Monday at 5:30 PM PT, 8:30 PM ET at

Does a "Golden Age" exist?

Eye on Canon Podcast ·

2025/03/04

EP. 150In the hut on Tatooine, Old Ben hearkens back to a time of prosperity and freedom, when the Jedi Knights were the “guardians of peace and justice in the galaxy.” The High Republic publishing initiative shows us this era outright – the name itself says as much, and even the Jedi are literally clad in the golden shimmer of the age. So what’s in a Golden Age? Do they even exist in our real world? If not, why does Star Wars storytelling often revolve around them? This week we traverse this gulf
