Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle are joined by their friend Dave LaSalle and the three men have a single mission: to discuss, in great detail, Star Wars: The Force Awakens. (Consider yourself spoiler warned.)

The three lifelong fans talk about their experience seeing the film (Murphy at a press screening days before the masses, Periwinkle on opening night and LaSalle a few days after it was released), their emotional states as they watched it and their thoughts for the franchise going forward.

Did they like it? Is there anything they’d change about the film? Will there ever be a Star Wars film this highly anticipated? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • End – “Santa’s Too Phat To Fly” by Mambo Zombies
