PT Good Podcasts?

I jog or ride the bike every day and I would like to listen to some podcasts about Star Wars, but frankly many I've tried are just not that great.

I really don't care much for 30 minutes of banter and 10 minutes of actually meaningful Star Wars discussion.

Does anyone have an recommendations for podcasts that get into in depth discussion on the story, myth, filming, and imagery? I would like to hear some knowledgable people discuss these things but I am struggling to find much.

I posted here because it's easy to find what I'm looking for about the OT. I want something focused on the whole saga or the PT.

 

Rebel Force Radio is an excellent one that covers and respects all aspects of the saga.

 

Like what Darkslayer said, www.rebelforceradio.com is the best source for Star Wars podcasting goodness.

 

Star Wars Underworld and Full of Sith get pretty in-depth. Also RFR is a must as everyone has said and will say.

 

Another vote for RFR. They do a good job of covering all things Star Wars and are positive/respectful towards the PT. One of the hosts also does Star Wars Influences, which is a discussion about things that affected the development of the saga. And also Star Wars Oxygen, discussing the music of the Saga. They also do Clone Wars declassified and Rebels declassified, which discuss episodes of each series. I've come across an episode of Oxygen that's on the shorter side (~30 minutes). Most tend to be 1-2.5 hours.

They tend to be very upbeat and engaging, which is a big reason why I listen to them.

 

SWU and Full Of Sith. I've never listened to RFR but I should give it a try after seeing all these recommendations

 

The Star Wars Minute! They are literally going through The Phantom Menace one minute at a time with a new episode every day Mon-Fri with expanded episodes for their Patreon subscribers on the weekends. It's hilarious, intelligent, and is the BEST PT focused podcast ever made.

I second that! I always look forward to this.



Another good one is Coffee with Kenobi.

 

I vote Rebel Force Radio!

 

Another RFR fan, especially Oxygen. The Force.net casts are getting better though. I'm warming to the new hosts.

 

Guys, I listen to podcasts every day on my commute to work. I added RFR last week, and I got to be honest, I'm really finding it hard to listen to. Are there any episodes that are particularly good?

Maybe I need a story? I usually listen to NPR (Planet Money, This American Life, Serial, Fresh Air) and Welcome to Nightvale. Can you all please be my podcast matchmaker?

 

I enjoy a ton of SW podcasts. I like everything from RFR to Full of Sith to Star Wars Report.

If you specify want to listen to a podcast that devotes alot of time getting in depth about the story, characters, mythology, etc. Here are a couple I would recommend:

1. The Wampa's Layer- this is a podcast that is fully devoted to in depth discussion on the movies. Karl and Jason do a very good job and both like the prequels (Jason is a big PT fan, while Karl likes them too although not nearly as much). Each episode is devoted to a different topic of discussion. You can go back through their archives. I know they have some pretty good episodes where they dissect both Luke's and Anakin's journeys.

2. The Cantina Cast- They have many episodes that are like a normal podcast format, where they go over the news and then talk about various current Star Wars topics. But they have also become known for devoting various episodes to specific character dissections. Right now they are doing Han. Before him they did Kylo Ren. I know they have previously done various OT and PT characters. Both hosts are big prequel fans, so no worries about any PT negativity on this show.

3. There is also a lesser known one that I found called Story and Star Wars. It's just one guy going through each movie talking about story and myth. Not as many episodes, as it seems he has only done the needed amount to cover the 7 existing movies, but from what I recall he gets pretty deep.

These are the only ones I think of that are specifically devoted to getting into story, myth, and character dissections. There are still a ton of other good podcasts, most of which tend to be more standard podcasts that go over news, rumours, and spoiler topics and occasionally have a deep discussion, some of which could be deep if it relates to story and other times not so deep.

One under the rader podcast I love is Podcast 66. They discuss a variety of topics and do a really good job. Both guys talk like they actually have some experience in radio or communications rather than sounding like amateurs who have no clue how to speak on air. Also both hosts are MASSIVE prequel lovers and defenders, which is a huge bonus.

One thing I have noticed is that most of the Star Wars podcasts out there seem to be fairly pro-prequels which is a big breath of fresh air.
