01/06/20 • 65 min

Returning from the holiday we give you a deep dive into our adventures at Galaxy's Edge at Disney's Hollywood Studios. We look at the overall ambiance, the vendors, the rides and the completely immersive feeling of actually being on the planet Batuu. It's one of the most unique experiences we've ever had in over twenty trips to Walt Disney World in Florida. We've got footage of the experience, interactions with cast, building a lightsaber at Savi's workshop and much of the Rise of the Resistance ride.
In entertainment news we'll recap what was an incredible season finale of the Mandalorian then give our impressions, though not our rant on Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. A fitting end to the saga that could have been a little more polished for our liking. All in all another great podcast.

This week the show is unintentionally space themed as we talk about some accomplishments of The Mandalorian, an impressive Star Wars merchandise auction, and a feel good Star Wars story about what Disney is doing for a dying fan. In our Entertainment News this week we look at the latest Star Wars The Last Jedi trailer that's less a trailer and more a summation of the journey and intro into what the new movie symbolizes, then we have a return of the alien everyone fell in love with in the '80s and a space faring couple who had called it quits but appear to be back together again.
