13. Live from "The Annual" Event - The Story of the Empire State Star Wars Collectors Club

Coming to you live from Fishkill, New York! During the Labor Day Weekend, the Empire State Star Wars Collectors Club hosted a meetup for local members (and some out-of-state ones)called The Annual. Join host David Quinn as he presents his first-ever live podcast panel telling the story of the Empire State Star Wars Collectors Club. What started as an idea between two friends at the beginning of this decade has grown into a group consisting of more than 300 passionate collectors, and has led them on amazing adventures across New York state and beyond! Thank you to Jason Thomas, Tom Quinn, Skye Paine, Mike Boniface, Mike Ritter, Lauren Starkiller, Chris Riehle, Michael Cooper, Ed Nagy, Fonz Napolitano, Ron Salvatore, and Tyler Fedigan for sharing your stories, and for making this an inspiring and moving presentation. And special thanks to Chris Porteous for your audio wizardry, and to Pete LeRose, whose friendship and kindness led to this episode. Here's to all of you, and to the Empire State!
