Episode 4 – George Lucas

A podcast six months in the making! Mike and Casey reserve a booth in the Mos Eisley cantina with the composer of our show’s theme song, Todd Maxfield-Matsumoto, and Ryan Chaddock, creator of the Pantheon live action role-playing game, to talk about the filmmaker who has both attained geek sainthood, and reviled as one of its most controversial villains. We’re talking about George Lucas, the man who gave us Star Wars… and then kept messing with it. We’ll explore the impact that Lucas’ work has had on our lives, and the post-prequel backlash that he’s still enduring, even more than a decade later. Does he deserve it? Did we over-react? Show us on the bantha doll where George Lucas touched your childhood! Music:  “Leia’s Theme” by John Williams “Howard the Duck Theme” performed by Dolby’s Cube featuring Cherry Bomb Previously titled: “Kids Love Trade Embargoes”
