A long time ago in this galaxy, one of the greatest movie sequels of all time was released. With it, our world was introduced to new characters like Yoda and Lando Calrissian that we would come to know and love as much as Han, Leia, and Luke. It also brought with it the iconic Imperial March and that much often misquoted scene revealing the identity of Luke's father.

Joined by Bradley Netherton, Colby and Darrell talk about what this movie means to them, how The Empire Strikes Back has influenced their lives, what makes the movie so great, how it influenced other Star Wars films, and how this movie holds up over the passing of 40 years.
