Big brains, big potential for epic conflicts! Grand Admiral Thrawn and Luthen Rael are both known for their brilliant strategic masterminding during the rise of the Empire, on opposite sides. Have they ever gone toe-to-toe? What would happen if they did? And while we’re on the topic of “What If?” scenarios, what would’ve been different if Bail Organa had stayed on Yavin IV, and not gone back to Alderaan before it was destroyed? Our hosts, Ian and Marty, dive into all of this on the latest episode of Star Wars Culture LIVE. They also react to the latest Star Wars news and touch on their…feelings…about The Mandalorian and Grogu’s Super Bowl TV spot.
What is Star Wars Culture LIVE? Most Wednesdays, at 7pm Eastern, two die-hard Star Wars fans embark on a voyage of celebration and nerdiness on a positive podcast focused on the best of the Star Wars fandom. These characters are Ian Bowling and Marty Ingleston, and they’ve been the hosts of SWCL since August of 2024. Since then, the podcast has gone through numerous stages of evolution: “Top 3” favorites, dad jokes, “On This Day”, guest appearances, and many other types of segments. This episode contains one of the fun “What If?” theoretical discussions, among the usual news updates and reaction commentary.
