    So many great topics discussed! The hosts and their guests really get into talking about all things Star Wars. Loved the recent Andor episode. Definitely not vague and unconvincing. Keep up the nerdiness! Thanks!

    This is where the guys are great & enjoy the longer timed podcast. I’ve been listening for awhile now and in the beginning the guys led into their face in relation to the Star Wars topic and while that may not be very popular sure do wish they would lien into their face more often.

    Keep up the great work fellaz!

I believe technology will continue to grow, with a focus on telling stories in ways that may involve animation but emphasize the narrative itself, rather than the format.
