S.T.E.A.M. into Star Wars celebrates Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math, wrapped in a Star Wars theme.  Local artists, authors, podcasters as well as members of the 501st Midwest Garrison were on hand at Washington Community High School in Central Illinois, Saturday, January 11th.  Tom Gross and Dan Zehr, part of the WCHS staff and an army of student organizers and volunteers, put in a herculean effort to make this event run smooth and successful. 

This was the 9th iteration of S.T.E.A.M., and my fourth year supporting the event and third in person and once again on the podcast stage along with Coffee with Kenobi and Hyperion Hub podcasts. This episode contains numerous interviews with authors, makers, cosplayers, podcasters and organizations supporting the event.
