origin story
How a Lunch Break Became a Launchpad
In the middle of a pandemic school break, a father and son sat down for lunch—and, as usual, their conversation turned to Star Wars. This time, they were deep in speculation: Would The Mandalorian bring Boba Fett back? How would the writers handle the canon? Their back-and-forth was sharp, spirited, and deeply curious—the kind of dialogue that makes you lean in.
That moment sparked something bigger. Kerwin and Keith Yarde—lifelong fans from two generations—found themselves revisiting these conversations again and again. Casually filmed and shared online, their exchanges resonated with other fans. What began as a personal ritual soon evolved into a shared platform.
With microphones in place and a growing sense of purpose, they launched Father. Son. Galaxy.—a podcast and YouTube channel exploring Star Wars, Marvel, and science fiction through multigenerational dialogue, deep fandom, and shared wonder.
ABOUT Kerwin
Father
Kerwin’s love affair with Star Wars began in 1983, when he traveled to Manhattan with his two best friends to see Return of the Jedi on its opening weekend. Since then, he’s lost count of how many times he’s watched the original trilogy. Captivated by the saga, Kerwin dove into the prequel and sequel trilogies, standalone films, TV series, soundtracks, novels, and comic books. His childhood fascination with Star Wars has evolved into a lifelong passion, shaping his life in ways that continue to resonate after decades.
about Keith
son
At just four years old, Keith was introduced to the Star Wars universe
through Little Golden Books adaptations of the first six films. After reading them, he eagerly watched A New Hope with his father, sparking a passion for building intricate Star Wars LEGO models designed for older children. Despite his age, Keith fearlessly tackled challenging sets like the Obi-Wan Interceptor, the Carbon Freeze Chamber, Captain Rex’s AT-TE, and Darth Vader’s castle. A gifted middle school student, Keith enjoys reading and is currently writing his own books. He also expresses his creativity as a stopmotion animator, producing original short films featuring his LEGO figures
as the stars.

Galaxy Guests: Interviews & Conversations
Whether chatting with Andor’s Diego Luna, Disney Imagineer Lanny Smoot, or acclaimed author Claudia Gray, Kerwin and Keith bring curiosity, warmth, and insight to every guest.
“This podcast is the embodiment of why George Lucas created Star Wars. Getting to know this family, and seeing a father’s love and appreciation for Star Wars (as well as other films and literature) be passed on to his son is just fantastic. They’re discussing more than just news and trivia here, like the themes and life lessons Star Wars tries to teach us. And they’re doing it in a fun way without the drama and negativity we get hit with in so many other ways each day. I can’t say enough good about it.”
