    A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… The Mog takes flight to revisit one of Peter’s all-time favourites, the ground-breaking epic that started it all— Star Wars (1977).

From lightsaber battles to Death Star trench runs, we’re diving deep into what made this film a cultural phenomenon. You don’t need to be a Jedi to enjoy this episode—but listening might just awaken the Force within you! May the Mog be with you!

    Come with us if you want to live! This week on The Mog we dispense with one of Derek’s beloved childhood films, 'Terminator 2: Judgement Day' (1991).

Teleport back in time with us to the 90s and tune in to hear us deconstruct what makes this film such a cornerstone of this decade. Of course there are the series reboots, but we probably won't be back for those.
