Podcast Stardust #943: Revenge of the Sith, Part 9 – How Liberty Dies

by Podcast Stardust

Yoda and Obi-Wan learn the truth about Anakin as the Chancellor declares the first Galactic Empire in this edition of our Revenge of the Sith series.

Anakin has fallen to the dark side, and the Jedi have been decimated by Order 66. Now, the Emperor addresses the galaxy and reorganizes the Republic into the Galactic Empire. In the shadows, Jedi Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi infiltrate the Jedi Temple to look for answers as to who was behind the fall of their order. What they discover only brings them pain. Meanwhile, Padmé must reconcile her feelings about the Jedi with the tale the newly crowned Emperor is telling. In addition, Obi-Wan arrives with dark and unwelcome news about her secret husband and father of her children. It is a dark ten minutes of Revenge of the Sith, and we are covering it all in this episode of Podcast Stardust.

Ross Hollebon from The Album Cockpit Podcast and Fantha Tracks joins us for the discussion.
