What is the opening introduction and purpose of this episode?
Greetings, this is Obi-Wan Kenobi, and I have drifted into the underworld. The Star Wars underworld. I have a bad feeling about this. Here we go. We must go to the lower levels. The underworld. You've taken your first step into a larger world.
You're
after something.
Yeah.
Since I've started the underworld, I've met so many great friends.
Chris.
I
grew up in the nineteen nineties and mall packaging is nostalgic for me. Dominic. What I love most about Star Wars is that it's fun and it's all around good times. So this is where the fun begins. May the force be with us.
This thing really moves! I like
this! You came all this way to see me. Why am I not in the intro? I gotta come up with a snappy line.
Well, hello again, everybody, and welcome back to the Star Wars Underworld Podcast, your weekly source for all the latest breaking Star Wars news, reviews, and discussion. And this week we are emptying out the mailbag. That is our goal. We have been putting this off for far too long. And since there is no news, and no news is good news, uh, we're gonna take this opportunity to answer as many. of your questions as possible that have been submitted through the ask the SWU section of the Star Wars Underworld Discord. I'm sure that's the wrong word to use for it, but I don't know how Discord works. But thankfully Other people do. And so we are going to actually be able to answer some of these questions and have some really fun, wide-ranging Star Wars conversations.
Who knows where things might go this week? Uh first though, introductions are in order. In case you're new to the show or you've forgotten who we are, that can happen. My name is Dominic Jones. And with me, as always, he's the founder of the Star Wars Underworld. It's
Ben Hart, the Star Wars guy. How's it going, everybody? It's good to be back. And uh yes, I can promise you tonight we will dig down deep. We will get to every single one of your questions. That we can tonight. Um, and uh hopefully uh get into some that there there's gonna be some that are like, it's painfully obvious this one has been sitting here. There's mold on this one, it's been in the show notes for so long. Um, but they're all good questions, nonetheless. Uh some of them you know who you are. They're very long, um, but we'll also get to those too. Um, but yeah, uh the Disney and Lucasfilm has blessed us with a almost pretty much a clean slate. There's n was almost nothing happening. There was the promise.
There was an Alden Ehrenwright quote. That it was about him saying he doesn't know anything basically when he's gonna come back. Um, there is the apparently the promise that there will be Ahsoka season two uh stuff in Empire magazine, but that's not out yet. So we nothing to talk about there.
How do the hosts introduce the mail‑bag segment and set up listener questions?
And uh, you know, things really, really scraping the bottom of the barrel uh this week. So uh we may as well get into the questions.
Yeah, well thankfully, you know, twenty twenty five or twenty twenty-six, God. Uh twenty twenty six hasn't been a very busy year for Star Wars. It's not like we've had two animated shows, a movie, uh, some trailers, announcements, uh, you know, all that stuff. It's not like we've had any of that. Um yeah, lots to look forward to, but this week I think it's gonna be fun. Not so much to look back, but just kind of to look around. You know, it's the uh, you know, the Ferris Bueller quote Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you might miss it. Star Wars is kind of the same way, you know? Star Wars can move pretty fast, especially in this day and age. Like one week you're talking about Mal Shadow Lord, then then you're talking Mando Grogu, then it's then it's Ninth Jedi, and next thing you know, it's Ahsoka season two and Starfighter, and then all of a sudden you realize I
haven't I haven't actually looked back on anything. I haven't really stopped to soak in these new stories or just the saga as a whole. Uh and so that's what we're gonna do this week. I think that's gonna be a lot of fun. Uh first though, Ben. Uh I don't know if you've ever had this experience where you're scrolling social media and you find out something about yourself.
