Ken Napzok is one of the most prolific entertainment podcasters in the business hosting shows like Collider Jedi Council, ForceCenter and Casterly Talk. He’s an actor, comedian and writer, most recently publishing Why We Love Star Wars, The Great Moments That Built A Galaxy Far, Far Away where he celebrates 100 memories about the greatest saga ever told.

On this episode we talk about avoiding Star Wars burnout, how he got into Star Wars, and of course, what went into writing his book. The one hour conversation expands into topics like toxic fandom, it’s influence on studio decisions and even Game of Thrones. Ken also shares his experiences at recent Star Wars premiers and a touching story about hosting a panel with Carrie Fisher.

Around the Galaxy, a part of the Making Star Wars Podcast Network, is a one hour, one guest, Star Wars fan talkshow. Every week we feature celebrities, podcasters, collectors and super fans and talk about what makes their Star Wars fandom special and what the saga means to them.
