Weird Al Yankovic joins us on this episode!!! We talk his Star Wars fandom, his latest tour - Strings Attached - and he answers questions we’ve had for decades. Ironically the only subject we didn’t cover was his tour with The Monkees! I guess we’ll have to have him on again. Big thanks to Shamim Dana, the STN Bounty Hunter, for making that happen and connecting us to the right people. During Weird Al concerts, he brings up to 8 Stormtroopers and Darth Vader on stage for his encore. David Braun was one of those stormtroopers for several concerts, and shares his stories.  Disney+ is Moving In More Disney+ news! What’s the first thing you’ll watch? We share our thoughts.

Luke passes out, Han and Leia bicker, and C-3PO buffs up and becomes a superhero!
