Best of Growing Up Skywalker
Episode 103: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Part VI
The Obi-Wan Kenobi finale is a SWAN SONG to Star Wars. It teaches us about the Force, about being an avatar of the Light, about friendship and love, and when it’s time to be a warrior (versus when it’s time to go back to grad school).
Episode 102: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Part V
Our recap of Obi-Wan Kenobi: Part V centered on discussions of the series’ two most powerful women: Tala and Reva. We used this episode as a way to process not just the death of a compelling female character, but Star Wars’ long, long history of fridging—killing off (almost all of) its compelling female characters. In the case of Part V, we ultimately realize something beautiful.
Episode 101: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Part IV
Obi-Wan Kenobi, Part IV is tense, beautifully shot, and full of Easter eggs. In our recap, we talk about rooting for Reva (even though we’re not supposed to), job security for the Inquisitors, purge troopers, embalming former Jedi, and why T-47s swooping out of the sky is Sam’s love language.
Episode 100: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Part III
What makes the darkest episode of Obi-Wan Kenobi (so far) tick? Exquisite world-building, delicious power dynamics, and a real contribution to Star Wars’ anti-fascism agenda. Also, some capital-D drama courtesy of capital-D Darth Vader.
Episode 99: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Part II
Our recap of Obi-Wan Kenobi: Part II centers on Inquisitors—but we also talk about the Sith, the light side of the Force, and truly terrible bosses.
Part II brings us to Daiyu, which is cyberpunk Coruscant and is DELIGHTFUL. We get to see Obi-Wan’s best Breaking Bad impression, the immediate father/daughter chemistry between him and Leia, and his bone-deep fear of using the Force again.
Episode 98: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Part I
This week, we had the inestimable Kathleen Wass from The FSF Popcast on our show to talk all things Obi-Wan Kenobi Part I: from Inquisitors and seeing a full-strength Vader to raising an absolute firecracker of a 10-year-old.
