A special collaboration with "Into a Larger World" fanzine from Kara DJ! Kara and Travis discuss their Top 3 Favorite Star Wars Headcanons.
What's a headcanon? To quote Kara in the companion piece to this episode in her latest zine: "The stories we fans tell ourselves to fill a plothole, to give a backstory, or just for fun!" Here are the characters that our headcanons revolve around: Shmi Skywalker, Padmé, Obi-Wan & R2, Lando, Boba Fett, and Ben Solo. Follow Kara @ sacredsomethingbykara on Instagram for information about her zine and for her amazing collage art!
