FINALLY, Unknown Regions Podcast has a meeting of the minds to discuss the Disney+ series "Obi-Wan Kenobi", Parts 1-4. Deborah Chow has painted a spectacular canvas full of themes, metaphor and symbolism.

In an exhausted stupor after 4 days of Star Wars Celebration 2022 & sleep deprivation, we decided to talk at length about John Williams's "Obi-Wan" which he composed for the new Disney+ series, "Obi-Wan Kenobi". Sound analysis or incoherent ramblings? You be the judge. But regardless, this new piece is a gift from JDubs. It's beautiful. It's heartbreaking. It's complex. It's a masterwork. We also discuss some of our fave & least fave moments from Star Wars Celebration 2022. AND PLEASE ENJOY THE NEWLY MASTERED INTRO OF "FIRE ON THE BASE", THE UNKNOWN REGIONS PODCAST THEME composed by Collin Wittlich himself!

Once again, we apologize for the long hiatus ,but WE ARE BACK! And just in time to review the panel schedule for Star Wars Celebration Anaheim 2022! It's been 3 very long years since SWC Chicago in 2019, and Collin and I cannot wait to hopefully meet some of you at SWCA. In preparation for that, we go through the panel schedule, day-by-day, to determine what are our must-sees. However, along with that always comes tough decisions and manifesting good luck to hopefully make our way into some of the big ticket panels. We hope to see some of you there!

That's a wrap on "The Book of Boba Fett"! We finally sit down in the Unknown Regions to discuss the very eventful (series?) finale. How did it all come together? How did we possibly survive the Boba & Mando team-up? Or basically how did we survive ANY of the cuckoo bananas stuff happening in this episode? Join us as we discuss 50 minutes of pure Star Wars joy.

(Apologies! Apologies! I accidentally published my solo recording instead of this, the edited final copy. Let's just delete that one, mmkay? Mmkay!)
EPISODE 50! Thanks to everyone who has hung in there with us through our erratic schedule & super long episodes! WE LOVE YOU! So here we are at the penultimate episode of "The Book of Boba Fett"! A devisive episode to be sure, but what does URP think? Is there a method to the madness of DigitaLuke? Has "the stranger" ever been more terrifying? Is there any worse group than the Pykes in all of Star Wars? (That's a rhetorical question because the answer is NO!)

We, for two, welcome Bryce Dallas Howard as our new Star Wars overlady. OHHHH KAYYYY. This episode. What can we say? Outstanding? Yes. Slightly controversial? Also yes. Join us in examining one of the most enjoyable 50 minutes of Star Wars we've ever seen. It is nostalgia gone RIGHT as well as insight into the Mandoverse the likes of which we've never seen in live action.
