Star Wars fandom is in a state that is, to put it lightly, less than ideal. We felt like we had to address it. Here’s what happens:
- Luke’s Funko Pop embargo has been lifted! Eric loves Enfys Nest. Dallas took it easier than usual!
- Solo: A Star Wars Story is still awesome! The box office numbers aren’t an indicator of the quality of the film. Where’s the disconnect?
- There is a section of Star Wars fandom that believes that content creators should never speak out against their detractors, regardless of how terrible the attacks against them are. It’s becoming quite an issue.
- We want Star Wars fandom to be a positive experience for everyone overall. How do we get there?
- Eric sorta loses it.
- Listener emails and voicemails, including some Solo soundtrack talk!
