SWNN’S Can(on)tina Chatter Podcast: Episode 1
We’re starting a new monthly podcast discussing the Star Wars canon. On the first episode of SWNN’s new spin-off podcast, the Prequel Era is broken down and discussed.
The show starts off with a discussion on the canon wipe and then the guys jump into all things canon from The Phantom Menace all the way to Revenge of the Sith. While the bulk of the conversation discusses The Clone Wars animated series, the three films in the PT, Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir and Dark Disciple are also featured. We also give a brief preview of the Obi-Wan & Anakin comic mini-series, as well as discuss ties from the PT era to both the ST and the Star Wars saga as a whole.
Host: Darth Zloi
Guests: Pomojema, Hard Case
Note: Our flagship show, The Resistance Broadcast , focuses on the latest news. This show is all about discussing all things canon in depth.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is a podcast I didn’t even know I needed until I learned of its existence. Hell yes hell yes hell yes. I will eagerly look forward to every episode!!!
(And if ever there will be guests allowed on the show I’d love to make an appearance someday if possible.)
Guests are definitely possible, though we’re gonna work on getting our rhythm as a team first. Glad you enjoyed it! By the way, your avatar kicks ass 🙂
thank you 🙂 yeah, just please let me know if/when you want guests. a whole podcast on just the canon, yeah, I’m lifelong listener now, good thing Star Wars will be everywhere from now till forever.
God those new steelbook cases are hideous.
Great podcast! Nice to have a focus on the new canon.
RSS or Atom, please?
I’ll check with Viral on it. As far as I know, new podcasts have to go through a kind of grace period (at least for iTunes) before they are posted. I’ll see what I can do.
Great podcast guys. I definitely look forward to listening to future episodes. The clone Wars show had many good episodes that I wasn’t expecting.I also think it’s interesting that the yuuzhan vong and Revan were so close to becoming cannon.
All the YA novels in the new canon are all far better than the “adult” ones.
agreed
I thought most if not all the old EU YA novels were pretty solid too but I wouldn’t say better than the adult ones of the time.
The folks at Jedi Council sent me. And holy $#!+ am I happy they did. Great show.
Loved the Podcast!! I personally will miss all the Old Republic books. I love most of those.
I’m reading Fatal Alliance right now. I love the Old Republic stuff as well. I suspect that if anything is pulled largely into canon eventually, it will be the Old Republic stories. I think they will make some major changes in the world building though. Although I’d expect to see a lot of the same characters and events canonized, I think we will see a more primitive take on technology to account for the thousands of years time gap between the stories. The tech in the EU OR was too static IMO. But overall, it’s one of my favorite eras.
