Ahch-To Radio #66: Alex Backes - The Chemistry, Creative Vision, & (Some) Star Wars

In today's brand new episode of the show, we've got one of our most personal conversations yet with our guest, writer & director Alex Backes from Black Series Rebels! This conversation all comes down to a deep dive into creativity, chemistry, storytelling, and finding your place. But don't worry! We take these long roads but it all comes down to Star Wars. We dissect online fandom, discourse, inspirations, & more within the context of The Last Jedi, The Force Awakens, and the upcoming Taika Waititi project. There's so much packed in here, so thanks again to Alex for coming on the show and being so open & thoughtful about his own luminous journey.
