"It’s an immediate time capsule of the era it was published in."

Since 1987, Star Wars Insider has been more than just a magazine—it’s been a physical record of our favorite saga. With publication officially ending in 2026, we’re sitting down with one of the people who helped tell those stories. We are joined by author and Insider contributor Brandon Wainerdi to discuss:

*The magazine’s 30+ year evolution.

*His final interview with the legendary poster artist Drew Struzan.

*Behind-the-scenes deep cuts from the Rogue One 10th Anniversary issue.

*The research behind his new book, The Star Wars Encyclopedia of Starfighters and Other Vehicles.

Whether you still have your first 1980s Starlog or you’re a digital-first fan, this episode is a must-watch for anyone who loves the history of Star Wars.
