The Questions Behind the Myth: Pete Fletzer Interviewed on His New Star Wars Book

In this very special episode of Around the Galaxy, the roles are reversed. Host Pete Fletzer hands the microphone to someone who has been there since the very beginning of his Star Wars journey — his father. As one of the people Pete dedicated his new book Who Owns the Myth? to, he steps into the host seat to interview Pete about the project that has reshaped his understanding of fandom, myth, and legacy. Together, they dive into why the book was written, the central question it asks about who truly “owns” a story as culturally massive as Star Wars, and how five decades of fandom—from toys to timelines—shaped the book’s point of view. Pete shares personal anecdotes from his own lifelong relationship with the saga, including moments that inspired entire chapters. They also explore whether the book resonates even for readers who aren’t deep into Star Wars lore. If you’ve ever wondered how modern fandom evolves, how myths are formed, or what inspires someone to write a book about the soul of a galaxy far, far away, this heartfelt father-son conversation is a must-listen. 📘 Get the book: 📚 Also available on Amazon (Kindle & hardcover) 🎙️
