DSTG is a Star Wars podcast made by two friends who both love Star Wars. The only thing is that one of them is more of an expert (Joseph), and the other doesn't know what he's talking about (James). Each episode is based around a candid observation or question from James as he ventures into Star Wars content that he's never seen before that the two try to answer together

In this episode, James and Joseph discuss all the shenanigans that would've occurred if everyone's favorite Wookie was surprisingly fluent in Engli–– I mean "Galactic Basic." Would it have made things better or worse for our heroes, and who would have voiced the reimagined character? Then, the two of us finish out beloved Star Wars Hallmark Christian Movie Trilogy with Part 3 of StarHallWarsMark. How will things turn out for the beloved Cick and Inno??

In this episode, James and Joseph talk about all of the things about "The Clone Wars" that make us question whether it's really meant for kids or not. It turns out that there's a lot of violence, but apparently just not having any blood at all makes it okay to the FCC, God, and parents everywhere to show it to their children. Then, we introduce (and improv) a new segment where we use an AI to autocomplete answers to classic DTSG questions from our episode history!

In this episode, James and Joseph consider how Palpatine managed to successfully coordinate the reunification of the galaxy under the Galactic Empire. With so many factions for him to control and so many personas for him to balance, it had to have been a pretty big job! Then, we rekindle our Life Day spirit and continue to develop our Star Wars Hallmark Christmas story. Building off of our work with "An Accountant for Life Day," we decide to make this story into a trilogy (as is Star Wars tradition) and in this episode, we write Part 2!

In this episode, James and Joseph wonder how "the Force" works on a molecular level: when a Jedi does a force push, how can someone possibly dodge it? Do Force users focus on objects or the air around them? This is all very confusing when you think about it. Then, we talk about what "The Bachelorette" would look like in the Star Wars universe in another edition of "It's Gonna Be Great."

In this episode, James and Joseph wonder whether or not Yoda was actually that much of a contributor in the Star Wars story at all. Like seriously, what does he even do to help Luke besides get his X-Wing out of the swamp?? Then, James introduces a new segment that we're calling StarHallWarsMark, in which he leads us in the creation of a Star Wars-themed Hallmark Christmas movie: "An Accountant for Life Day" (aka "A Life Day Flame: A Star Wars Story").

WELCOME TO SEASON 2 OF DESTROY THE SHIELD GENERATOR!
In this episode, James and Joseph announce that they will be the inspiration for two new characters in the canonical Star Wars universe! After discussing what kind of characters would be based on each of them, they discuss if the extended editions of the movies are better than the theatrical releases. Finally, they undergo another "Jedi Mind Trick" and ask how the Star Wars story would've been different if Obi-Wan simply told Luke from the start that Darth Vader was his father.

In the season 1 finale of DTSG, James and Joseph tackle two question segments! In the first one, we address the relationship between our two favorite droids, R2-D2 and C-3PO, including why C-3PO is so mean to R2 and if there's anything more to the relationship than the movies let on. In the second question segment, we talk about Obi-Wan in Episode 4, and if why he didnt' recognize R2-D2 and why he didn't tell Luke that Vader was his father. Next, we have a new edition of the segment "iMessage Search," where we look up the terms "Jabba the Hutt" and "Holocrons." Finally, we give a quick sendoff and update on the future of DTSG!
Thank you to all of our listeners and followers for a great first season! We'll be back in your feeds soon!

How can inhibitor chips tell if someone is a Jedi? + "Execute Order #__" #1

In this episode, James and Joseph collectively ponder how an inhibitor chip works, including what they're made of, how they can tell a Clone who's a Jedi or not, and what specifically activates them. Plus the one (and likely only) edition of a new segment called "Execute Order #__," where we hypothesize what would've happened if Palpatine issued another one of the 150 General Orders instead of Order 66 in that moment.

In this episode, James and Joseph get deep into the fuzzy math and impracticality of a planetary blockade. For once, we actually agree on something! Then, we have another edition of "It's Gonna Be Great," where we (and our first accidental guest) hypothesize what the hit show "Tiger King" would be like in the Star Wars Universe.
