Welcome to Nerd Theory.

My new weekly podcast where I debate all things Star Wars with my good buddy Josh.

This show is much more raw and free form, done without a net.

We look at Star Wars news, rumors and cool new releases like games, movies and TV shows

and find what's going on out there with people like us who love Star Wars.

So without further ado, welcome to Nerd Theory.

Uh, re-watch revenge of the sin was thinking you guys think Palpatine had a role in Shmi's

death, Padme's death, all planned to lure Anakin?

Yeah, I think so.

Oh, so you don't think so?

That was Shmi.

Um, which Shmi, yeah, actually, it was, uh, he told Duke who to go, uh, tell the Tuskens

to capture her.

Yeah.

And you don't think Padme though?

No.

Hmm.

No, that was the world force.

I think that's the perfect move from Palpatine's perspective to sort of capture Vader forever.

So yes, but I just don't, like, I don't see any sort of source material or anything that

was in, in the books or comics or anything that would have, yeah, I'll be right back.

I gotta go, I gotta hot, hot, hot, hot, I'll be right back.
