Join Children of the Watch for Jedi History 101! Class is in session, get ready for some heavy lore dumping. We're breaking down everything you need to know (and probably some things you don't) about arguably the most important entity in all of the Star Wars galaxy: the Jedi Order. We'll be talking about the philosophy of the Jedi, as well as the long and storied history of the Order. We discuss everything from the Chosen One prophecy to a little-known group that splintered off from the Jedi. And of course, we'll be talking all about how the Jedi lore could relate to The Acolyte, the upcoming Star Wars TV show debuting June 4th.

Join the Watch as we breakdown everything you need to preapre for the upcoming Star Wars live action television show, The Acolyte. Alex dives deep into what happened between The Rising Storm and The Fallen Star, specifically checking in on Vernestra Rwoh (a character featured in The Acolyte). The Sith and what they were yp to at the time, and how they might have used the Nihil as a lightening rod for distraction.

If you're seeking more context for The Acolyte, this episode is for you. While the books won't be required knowledge, it is fun to learn what happened about one hundred years before the show and speculate on how it impacts Star Wars and The Acolyte.

When The Acolyte premieres, be sure to join us for detailed scene by scene breakdowns, speculation, and fun along the way.
