Podcasts about Darth Vader

This week on Stitch Please, Lisa and Mind the Force Podcast host Kristine McPartlin geek out over the secret language of Star Wars fashion from Luke's hopeful robes to Darth Vader's villain chic. They laugh about the Empire's tiny hats, dissect Jedi linen minimalism, and revel in Queen Amidala's 20 yard gowns. It's a hilarious, insightful dive into how every stitch in a galaxy far, far away tells a story and yes, sometimes that story is simply “Nazis bad.”====Where You Can Find Kristine!

On Episode 254, we pretend that Star Wars was not made in 1977 and the script is available and waiting for a cast. So who would we cast in the major roles of Star Wars? Join us to see who we would choose and we'd love to hear who you would choose.  We begin the show by each revealing our favorite Jedi.  X: @idiotsarraypod Facebook: Idiot's Array Podcast Email: idiotsarraypodcast@gmail.com Instagram: @idiotsarraypodcast

When TRON: Legacy hit theaters in December 2010, Disney wasn't just reviving an old IP—they were resurrecting one of the strangest, most ambitious sci-fi concepts ever made. The original TRON from 1982 was a groundbreaking attempt to visualize the inside of a computer at a time when most people hadn't even touched one. It imagined programs as people, code as architecture, and morality as circuitry. It was visionary—and it bombed.By the 2000s, though, culture had caught up. The Matrix had turned cyberpunk into mainstream mythology, and the neon-noir look of Blade Runner had become visual shorthand for the future. Enter Joseph Kosinski—a former architect with a designer's precision—who re-engineered TRON not as a hacker fantasy, but as a digital myth about creation, perfection, and control.Garrett Hedlund plays Sam Flynn, son of Kevin Flynn, the hero from the first film, who vanished decades earlier. Sam follows a mysterious signal and is pulled into the Grid—his father's virtual world, now ruled by CLU, a digital clone obsessed with “perfection.” Within minutes, we're deep in a story that mirrors Star Wars: the fallen apprentice turned tyrant, the exiled master, the reluctant heir, and a world that must be remade. Kevin Flynn is both Obi-Wan and Yoda—haunted and withdrawn. CLU is his Darth Vader, a creation corrupted by its maker's arrogance.But the movie also borrows Matrix DNA. The Grid works like a virtual prison where sentient programs fight and dream of freedom. Quorra, played by Olivia Wilde, is the last of the “isomorphic algorithms,” lifeforms that evolved on their own—straight out of Ghost in the Shell's questions about digital souls. The film isn't about coding; it's about consciousness.Kosinski builds this world like a cathedral. Production designer Darren Gilford fills it with clean geometry and luminous voids. The suits by Michael Wilkinson and Christine Bieselin Clark refine Syd Mead's 1982 designs into sculpted futurism. And Daft Punk's score—half orchestra, half circuitry—turns the film into an electronic symphony. Even those who forgot the plot still remember that sound.Critics complained it was cold, that the script sounded like it was written by people who'd never heard of Google. My son Jonas nailed it: “This sounds like nobody who wrote it had heard of the internet.” And he's right. The film imagines computers as isolated kingdoms, not the networked web we actually live in. It's a pre-internet vision dressed in post-Matrix clothing.Yet that's what makes it fascinating. TRON: Legacy isn't really about technology—it's about fathers, sons, and the danger of mistaking perfection for love. Kevin Flynn's failure isn't technical; it's paternal. He built a world in his image and abandoned it. CLU inherited his father's obsession with order, and Sam inherited his resentment. The conflict isn't between man and machine—it's between generations.Kosinski would revisit that theme in Oblivion and Top Gun: Maverick: the architect of the system confronting the cost of control. TRON: Legacy is the prototype—a meditation on beauty, regret, and the limits of design.Fifteen years later, it feels almost prophetic. CLU's dream of a flawless system sounds uncomfortably close to the rhetoric of Silicon Valley. The movie's warning—that perfection becomes tyranny—lands harder in an age of algorithms, A.I., and curated identities. Its message is simple: imperfection is the only thing that makes us human.So tonight, as we gear up for TRON: Ares, we're putting Legacy on trial—not as a sequel that glitched, but as a digital myth that might've been too early for its own time. It's Star Wars rewritten by a coder, The Matrix without the leather, and Ghost in the Shell with a heartbeat.Load the disc. Power up the light cycles. Let's head back to the Grid.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

Have you ever heard the legend of James Luceno the wise? Now you can hear from this brilliant author directly from the source because Jared and Freddy sat down with him for a phenomenal chat at Legacy Expo. He is the author of great Star Wars books like Darth Plagueis, Cloak of Deception, Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader, and several books in the New Jedi Order including its epic finale, The Unifying Force. We asked him about the development of the NJO, many mind-blowing behind-the-scenes details, and also what it was like crafting such a dark and twisted tale as Darth Plagueis. You're going to love this one.

AI-tjänster som Chat GPT och Copilot har snabbt blivit något som många av oss använder på jobbet och privat. Hälsa, psykiskt mående och allvarliga samtal varvas med väldigt konkreta frågor, enligt en ny undersökning. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Bredden i frågorna överraskar internetexperten Måns Jonasson på Internetstiftelsen som ligger bakom den årliga rapporten Svenskarna och internet. Och han menar att AI-tjänsterna är till stor hjälp för många, men manar också till försiktighet och källkritik, för chattbotarna är väldigt måna om att vara till lags, säger han.När vi frågar människor i Stockholm så får vi exempel på stor fantasi och variation i frågorna till AI, som gäller allt från Darth Vaders stridskrafter till vårt psykiska välbefinnande.Medverkande: Måns Jonasson, internetexpert på Internetstiftelsen.Programledare: Björn Gunérbjorn.guner@sr.seProducent: Camilla Widebeckcamilla.widebeck@sr.se

Es war eine Woche großer Reden oder zumindest solcher, die groß angekündigt waren. Trump vor der UN, Merz im Bundestag und, fraglos die bedeutendste: Markus Söder auf Kloster Banz mit einer CSU- Grundsatzrede.Die Teilzeitarbeit bei Lehrern will er einschränken, das Handy bis zur 7. Klasse aus dem Klassenzimmer werfen und Franz Josef Strauß in die Walhalla in Donaustauf holen. Zusammen mit der Philosophin Hannah Arendt. Wenn das keine Grundsätze sind.Der Strauß sei schließlich sein Vorbild gewesen, sagt der Söder, was man dem Strauß absolut nicht zum Vorwurf machen kann. Und wäre das schon der Grund für eine Aufnahme in die bayerische Ruhmeshalle über der Donau, Söders Vorbild zu sein, dann würden demnächst womöglich auch Darth Vader und Captain Kirk dort aufgenommen, ganz abgesehen von Edmund Stoiber, als dessen leidenschaftlicher Anhänger sich Söder einst auch bekannt hat. "Ich bin Stoiberianer" hat er gesagt, damals, kurz vor Edmunds Sturz.Nein, für eine Aufnahme in die Walhalla braucht's schon mehr.Für bedeutende Persönlichkeiten "teutscher Zunge" hat sie König Ludwig I. errichten lassen und davon sind auch reichlich welche drin. Luther, Goethe, Heine, Bismarck, Adenauer.Das hat wahrscheinlich die Freien Wähler auf den Plan gerufen. "Die Walhalla ist kein CSU- Stammtisch" hat der Kulturexperte der Partei verlauten lassen. Wobei der Adenauer ja in der CDU war. Also wenn, dann wär's ein Unionsstammtisch, ein sehr kleiner, an dem sich für die Freien Wähler wohl kein Platz fände. Außerdem hätte ja der Strauß schon einen Flughafen, sagt der Freie Wähler- Sprecher weiter. Das stimmt. Den hat der Adenauer allerdings auch. Man könnte ja vielleicht den Strauß- Flughafen in Hubert- Aiwanger- Airport umbenennen, in Eitsch-Äj-Äj (HAA), dann wäre die Mehrheit in der Staatsregierung für den Strauß in der Walhalla gesichert. Zumal es der große Vorsitzende Aiwanger wohl auch beim besten Willen nicht in die Walhalla schaffen wird. Teutsche Zunge und so. Vielleicht der Bruder. Egal.Mythologisch betrachtet ist Walhall ja der Wohnort der gefallenen Krieger, wo einen die Walküren hin geleiten und Wotan herrscht.Das mit dem herrschenden Wotan dürfte Strauß schon mal gar nicht gefallen, schließlich ist er doch schon im Himmel seit der Ankunft Ratzingers nur noch stellvertretender Vorsitzender, heißt's.Aber der Mythos, der passt zu Strauß, vor allem der des gefallenen Kriegers. Er hat gegen Augstein verloren, gegen Schmidt, gegen Kohl. 1976 in Wildbad Kreuth, als er die CSU bundesweit ausdehnen wollte, sogar gegen die eigene Parteibasis. Wo passt so einer besser hin als auf die Burg Walhall? Mögen die Walküren ihn geleiten.Eben alles eine Frage der Perspektive.

https://lnk.bio/Jeditalk The trailer we have all been waiting for is here! We watch and break down what we believe was everything seen in the trailer - we are sure we left some out!  Did you catch the latest Star Wars LEGO special on Disney+ - it was excellent!  John Boyega has thoughts on how he would handle the sequel trilogy.  Did you see how much it cost to make The Acolyte...we react.  Darth Vader was moved fron the now closed Launch Bay at Hollywood Studios - his new location is better than the alternative.  All of this and more on episode 408 of Jedi Talk! (even though we said 407 multiple times on air... SMH)  

On this weeks episode of The Theme Park Podcast, the guys give a euology to Star Wars Launch Bay as it makes way for The Magic of Disney Animation experience. Along the way they discuss Darth Vader moving to a new location and ponder the future of Star Wars at Hollywood Studios. Then Jimmy recaps doing trivia at the Hard Rock Live, Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is sold out and more.Follow The Show:FacebookInstagramYouTube

Dynamic and debonair, Cesar Romero was best known for creating the role of the Joker in the 1960s Batman television series. As the first actor to play Batman and Robin's villainous nemesis, Romero established the character's giddy, manic tone and the distinctive laugh that subsequent actors like Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, and Joaquin Phoenix would use as the starting points in their own Oscar-nominated (Nicholson) and Oscar-winning (Ledger and Phoenix) performances. As a closeted gay man of Latin American descent, Romero gracefully faced many personal challenges while maintaining his suave public image and starring opposite legends ranging from Shirley Temple to Marlene Dietrich, Carmen Miranda to Frank Sinatra, and Kurt Russell to Jane Wyman.The first biography of the consummate entertainer, Cesar Romero: The Joker Is Wild, captures the critical moments of Romero's childhood, adolescence, and accomplishments in Hollywood. Author Samuel Garza Bernstein shares anecdotes regarding Romero's public and personal life, as well as Romero's private disdain for his reputation as the "Latin lover," a discriminatory stereotype he found constrictive both in terms of his range as an actor and as a man who kept his sexuality private.Cesar Romero is an in-depth study of a significant Hollywood star and his impact on the entertainment industry. Batman made him immortal, but with more than four hundred film and television credits, his six-decade career as an actor, dancer, and singer made him a true Hollywood icon."If you're a fan of classic movies, Hollywood's star-studded golden age, comic book superheroes like Batman, and (along with Darth Vader and the Wicked Witch of the West) one of the three greatest villains in cinema history, the Joker, you'll applaud and even maniacally cackle at this in-depth revelation of the utterly true story of Cesar Romero. And that's no joke!" -Michael Uslan, Originator and Executive Producer of the Batman movie franchise.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Robbie is involved in the restaurant industry, Jay is involved in food media, and Art has a storied history in food marketing.  It's a wonder that the episodes aren't shorter so they can get to lunch faster.  And it's no wonder that the subjects often trend towards food. This episode evolved out of both hunger and a listener request.  The Guys are based in an SEC college football town, and it's the beginning of the season.  Fans gotta' eat, but where?  What if all the well-known and loved places in town have long waits?  Or what if there are terrific places to grab a bite that might not even show up on Yelp?  That's what The Guys are here for.  Art was out of the studio (eating?) but still sent in his favorites.  Local places are covered, with plenty of emphasis on gas stations and grocery stores, plus spots in surrounding counties that are easily accessible on the way in or out of town.   If you're hungry for another Superman movie, it's coming … tomorrow, but in 2027.  If you want to buy Darth Vader's light saber, you're too late.  And if you want to eat dinner at The Shed at Dulwich, you'd better have a backup plan.  See you off the beaten path.

Just when we thought we found all the actors who've played Darth Vader, another emerges. Tom Bewley was the first actor to portray the Dark Lord of the Sith on screen after Return of the Jedi. He appeared in the Frank Oz-directed 1985 film, The Indian in the Cupboard. In his very first podcast interview, Tom opens up with never-before-heard stories from behind the mask. He shares what it was like stepping into Vader's boots for The Indian in the Cupboard, his duel with the Energizer Bunny in a now-legendary commercial, memories from the Star Wars 10th Anniversary convention preshow with George Lucas, and plenty more surprises. TODAY in Star Wars History 9/16/1977 48 years ago... ABC aired The Making of Star Wars as Told by C-3PO and R2-D2, an hour-long special hosted by R2-D2 and Anthony Daniels as C-3PO. Coming in the same month as Donny & Marie, Richard Pryor, and Saturday morning Star Wars previews, the special stood out by placing R2 and 3PO in a futuristic Star Wars setting to share behind-the-scenes stories. It was a clever move—fans didn't have to wait for The Empire Strikes Back to get “new” Star Wars, all thanks to Charlie Lippincott's promotional vision.

The Mandalore Plot Arc: Obi-Wan's Lost Love and Anakin's Dark PathStar Wars: The Clone Wars' Season Two's Mandalore trilogy of episodes explores one of the most pivotal character arcs in Star Wars. This three-episode storyline introduces Duchess Satine, reveals Obi-Wan's romantic past, and showcases a chilling moment that foreshadows Anakin's fall to the dark side.Key Questions ExploredIs pacifism realistic in wartime? The hosts debate whether Duchess Satine's complete rejection of Mandalore's warrior culture was the right approach, or if her pacifism actually enabled the very violence she sought to prevent.How did Obi-Wan's forbidden love shape his mentorship of Anakin? The episode reveals that Obi-Wan once considered leaving the Jedi Order for Satine, raising questions about whether his own romantic struggles made him too lenient with Anakin's secret marriage to Padmé.What makes Anakin's cold-blooded killing so significant? When Anakin executes Senator Tal Merrick without hesitation, the hosts analyze how this moment perfectly captures his path toward becoming Darth Vader—choosing expedient violence over Jedi restraint.Should the Republic have respected Mandalore's neutrality? The discussion examines Palpatine's manipulation tactics and whether the Senate's willingness to ignore Mandalore's sovereignty mirrors real-world political interventions.Episodes covered: "The Mandalore Plot," "Voyage of Temptation," and "Duchess of Mandalore" **************************************************************************This episode is a production of Star Wars Generations, a The Ethical Panda Podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

"In this episode of Two Zero Q, we chat with author Samuel Garza Bernstein.Sam has written a great biography of Cesar Romero entitled: "Cesar Romero: The Joker is Wild"SAMUEL GARZA BERNSTEIN is a Stonewall Book Award-winning writer, screenwriter, and playwright, as well as the author of Starring Joan Crawford: The Films, the Fantasy, and the Modern Relevance of a Silver Screen Icon. He has lived all over the world and worked in just about every aspect of show business, in a career that began at the age of 17 when he graduated a year early from high school in Austin, Texas, and moved alone to New York City. He splits his time between Porto, Portugal, and Los Angeles, CA, with his husband and their pack of incorrigible dachshunds. If you're a fan of classic movies, Hollywood's star-studded golden age, comic book superheroes like Batman, and (along with Darth Vader and the Wicked Witch of the West) one of the three greatest villains in cinema history, the Joker, you'll applaud and even maniacally cackle at this in-depth revelation of the utterly true story of Cesar Romero. And that's no joke!"—Michael Uslan, Originator and Executive Producer of the Batman movie franchisefrom the Foreword Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 7, 2025 is: behest • bih-HEST • noun Behest can refer either to an authoritative order or an urgent prompting. // The committee met again at the senator's behest. // At the behest of her friends, Marcie read the poem aloud. See the entry > Examples: “... Raymond Carver and I were selecting stories for our American Short Story Masterpieces. When Ray and I worked on our selections, we would meet in Manhattan, where I lived, or in Syracuse, New York, where he lived. ... Each morning we'd read and then meet for lunch and talk about what we'd read. After lunch we'd read some more, and at dinner we talked about the afternoon's reading. Sometimes we'd reread at the other's behest.” — Tom Jenks, LitHub.com, 2 Aug. 2024 Did you know? In Return of the Jedi, the villain Darth Vader speaks with an old-timey flair when he asks his boss, the Emperor, for instructions: “What is thy bidding, my master?” If the film's screenwriters wanted him to sound even more old-timey, however, they could have chosen to have him ask “What is thy behest?” As a word for a command or order, behest predates bidding in English by a couple centuries, dating all the way back—long, long ago, though still in this galaxy—to the 1100s. Its Old English ancestor, the noun behǣs, referred to a promise, a meaning that continued on in Middle English especially in the phrase “the land of behest” but is now obsolete. The “command” sense of behest is still in good use, typically referring to an authoritative order, whether from an emperor or some other high-ranking figure. Behest is now also used with a less forceful meaning; it can refer to an urgent prompting, as in “an anniversary showing of classic films at the behest of the franchise's fans.”
