Hosted by Andrew Bettis, Star Wars: In The Beginning focuses on and debates issues surrounding the Star Wars prequel saga, such as character development (or lack thereof) and the varying storylines of Episodes I - III.

The show, inspired by fan audio classics such as ChronoRadio and Star Wars and Beyond, strives to mirror many of the same concepts by debating both serious and more advanced topics and some lighthearted ones as well. Also included in each episode is a "News and Notes" segment which focuses solely on current events and crises.

The show is released monthly, with Special Editions also thrown in sporadically.


There are three types of In the Beginning episodes. Choose the style of episode you wish to explore, and proceed, dear listeners, proceed!
