Star Wars Day (May the 4th) is upon us once again and Kneel Before Pod continues its annual discussion of the Star Wars movies in release order. This year it’s time to venture into Prequel Country with the 1999 release Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. The team discusses how good the word “Gungan” is, whether Qui Gon is a child catcher, toys in cereal and Kat does a special dramatic reading from “WIlliam Shakespeare’s Star Wars”. Tune in to celebrate Star Wars day with all of us.

Craig and Angus can be found as writers on this very site as well as being avid contributors to many of the podcasts. Natalie can be found on this site or under her own website showcasing her own projects. Andrew’s work can be found on the Starburst website and in physical magazines that can be found in Newsagents. Izaak can also be found on his Monster Adams Presents facebook page where he shares his artwork and comics. Kat can also be found on her own website, YouTube or Twitter,
