Even though Jen isn't necessarily a Star Wars Fan, she and Dagda celebrate May the Fourth with a deep dive into the origins of Star Wars Day, from the 1977 grassroots campaign to Margaret Thatcher’s political wordplay and the first organized fan celebrations. They reflect on Carrie Fisher’s legacy, debate the infamous Star Wars Christmas Special, and break down the highs and lows of the original trilogy, prequels, and sequel trilogy.

The conversation expands into canon controversies, Disney’s acquisition, marketing strategy, fan backlash, and the generational divide between longtime fans and newcomers. They also compare Star Wars to Star Trek’s more optimistic outlook and explore how science fiction inspires real-world innovation in STEM fields.
