Welcome back, Fellow Streamers! We're tackling episodes 4-6 in the Star Wars universe this week (or, a month ago and Devon forgot to edit this earlier-whoops)!  We talk about the impact the original Star Wars had on film and young people in the 1970s, generational fandom and toxic fandom, how perfect the original casting was, and the diminishing returns this trilogy gives as it ages.  We also fix this trilogy like we did the prequels. You're welcome, Disney. We take cash.  Be safe, be...

Welcome back, Fellow Streamers! We're tackling the "Star Wars Stories" set in-between episodes 1-3 and 4-6 that LucasFilm tried making a thing a few years back!  It... goes as well as expected with the Star Wars franchise thus far.  We also discuss "Murderville", "Pam and Tommy", a timely manner of podcasting, Lauren misses the scroll, and Devon prematurely rants about episodes 7-9!  Be safe, be happy, watch TV!

Welcome back, Fellow Streamers! We're jacking back into the Matrix and covering Reloaded this week!  Devon talks about early 2000's video games based on this franchise (Lauren is very confused because of this story), Lauren sums up the movie in her own way, and we argue these movies are not as put together as Devon remembered.  Be safe, be happy, watch TV!

Welcome back, Fellow Streamers!
