This week Griffin and David, whilst yelling into microphones, dive right into The River of Ham that is Anakin's origin story and the main crux of the Phantom Menace series: turning to the dark side and becoming Darth Vader.
In this edition, Griffin and David examine the Emperor's rise to power, including: the origins of Darth Sidious, the "ancient" Darth Plagueis myth and their possible connection to Anakin's birth, the death of Mace Windu, and space opera.
Joining Griffin and David on today's episode is special guest Mike Drucker. Together, they discuss the MANY missteps of the Jedi council throughout the Phantom Menace saga
Listen in as the hosts attempt to make sense of Jar Jar Binks, Jake Lloyd's performance, Coruscant the city planet, and more with the architect behind it all.
Griffin and David, joined once again by director George Lucas, present a special live bonus episode where they watched Revenge of the Sith and recorded their commentary.
