Have you heard the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise? In this special short LIVE episode we cover Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and the manipulation and grooming masterfully deployed by Palpatine to turn Anakin Skywalker into Darth Vader. We discuss the specific strategies that master manipulators use to groom their prey and detail how Darth Sidious played the long game in his slow gaslighting of Anakin and helped warp his mind from the Chosen One to the Dark Lord. We also discuss how the failure of the Jedi's communication and training techniques and how failing to tell him the truth helped convert him from hero to villain! Tune in to hear the story of the fall of the Chosen One!
