One of the joys of Star Wars Celebration was meeting hosts Kerwin and Keith Yarde and their family and watching them take their show Father. Son. Galaxy: A Star Wars Podcast to the Podcast Stage at Celebration Anaheim as they captivated the audience with their take on the saga. Yahoo shine a light on this unique podcast as they take their show from Philadelphia to Anaheim and places in-between while celebrating the bond between father and son.
There is no bond like that of a father and son. While society may have folks believing that those relationships entail throwing a football around in the yard, or someone’s dad teaching them the inner workings and the ins and outs of the coolest car, that’s not the case for all.
For instance, Kerwin and Keith Yarde have a deep connection thanks to one of the most iconic installments in entertainment, “Star Wars.” So much so that it led them to their very own show, Father. Son. Galaxy: A Star Wars Podcast, where viewers can dive deep into the space fantasy and get all the feels from the dynamic duo. While they both have a love for the franchise, both Kerwin and Keith came into the galaxy in their own way.
“I was 12-years-old when I saw my first ‘Star Wars’ movie, ‘The Empire Strikes Back,’ and ‘The Return to Jedi’ in ’83. Then I saw the prequel trilogy,” Kerwin explained. “When Keith was born, there was talk of Lucas Film putting together the sequel trilogy and at the time, we were looking forward to the ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens.’”
He explains how he saw a version of the “Little Golden Books” that focused on the first “Star Wars” films and introduced them to his son. The rest was history. From the books, Keith was sold on the galaxy and began to go from the books to LEGO sets, even more books, and eventually the films. Before the Yarde household knew it, this became the norm, and “we’ve been talking about ‘Star Wars’ up to this day,”
